    When we arrived at the restaurant we weren’t sure the process to access parking. We called the restaurant, they immediately answered, and opened the gate. From there you walk up a narrow set of stairs that takes you to the outside front entrance of the restaurant. Took a moment to realize the steel door without any marking on the door was the stairs and the correct way to go. Advise you may want to drop off at the entrance anyone who may have physical disorders. I enjoyed Oysters, Dungeness Crab, and Pacific Striped Bass. Every thing was fresh and well prepared. My only suggestion would be to partially prepare the crab for easy opening. Many people don’t have the skills to harvest the meat and pre-scoring the shells would go along way. Otherwise, an excellent experience with attentive and knowledgeable staff.

    Wild Blue is outstanding, and definitely one of the top restaurants in Whistler. We have been dining in Whistler for fifty plus years, and it is wonderful to see how the food scene has matured. Wild Blue is a great example. All staff, from hostesses to our server Alexi were personable and professional. Alexi’s recommendations, from wine pairing, to oysters, to salad, to entree, were spot on. The dishes were outstanding! The green chili granita accompanying oysters was outrageous. The beet salad delicious, and the sablefish perfect! Great spot, and we will make it a regular stop when in Whistler!

    We came here to celebrate my wife’s birthday while skiing at Whistler for the week. We had a reservation and was seated promptly. They checked our coats which was nice too! Our server was amazing and was prompt and let us know about the specials. He put in our order and everything came out at the appropriate times… we started off with the bread service, beet salad and the hamachi crudo. Our mid course was the cavatelli with truffles and for the main we had the Australian wagyu strip and the sable fish! Everything was delicious!

    I don’t know why they are unable to make a Cosmo with a preferred vodka. The server said they make them by the ‘batch’. Quite disappointing that in a restaurant of this calibre the cocktails are pre-prepared. This created doubt as to the freshness of the food. My expectations were high because this wasn’t my first time jere.

    The ambience is beautiful, the menu is well designed with fresh local ingredients and executed with love and appreciation for the craft. The service is professional and engaged. We only get to Whistler once a year and Wild Blue is on our short list of must go to when we’re here. Make reservations before you’re in town or you’ll likely miss the opportunity.
