"Not a great choice when skiing at Whistler. Out of the way, extremely old school vibe."
Dined on 2/28/2014
"Edgewater is one of our "go to" restaurants whenever we're vacationing in Whistler. Everything about Edgewater is wonderful--the food, the service, and the views across Green Lake and up to the mountains around Whistler."

"nice meal, although in my opinion the portions are too large !! Service was very pleasant, but as the restaurant filled we saw less and less of the server, and i grew a little impatient toward the end when waiting for coffee and the bill."

"Excellent food, excellent service and a fantastic view. A little tucked away and hard to find if you haven't been there before but well worth it. A hidden gem in Whistler ! Would absolutely recomend to anyone looking for something a little different than the hustle and bustle of the main villages. Great lodging as well."

"The food was ok, the service somewhat apathetic, the décor tired. Given the price category, I expected more."

"Nothing else to say, RimRock definitely now living on reputation alone, food here was superior in every way."

"Second time here and it picked up where I last left with Excellent food and service. Great spot a bit Pricy but well worth it. Good to get out the village If only for a few k's away"

"In staying at the Edgewater Lodge, we decided it would be comfortable to dine at the restaurant. The experience was unexpected and wonderful, with very friendly and relaxed service in a setting that was at once intimate but also airy. The restaurant has a comfortable ambience with tall wood columns and beams and a beautiful vista to the adjoining lake and mountains. The menu was small but very tasty and well prepared. Overall, the experience was wonderful and relaxed. This is a small restaurant located in a high ceilinged room that speaks of mountains and lakes. The lodge does not scream sophistication, but it has a soft ambience and comfort that is well suited for quiet weekends and outdoor activities."

"We had wonderful lobster soup followed by the venison, salmon, and a prime rib. Very nicely done. We'll be back again and again..."

"We found Edgewater through OpenTable, not knowing anything about it, we went with the positive reviews. At the end of our dinner, everyone of us, 6 total, were extremely pleased with the quality of service, food, and atmosphere. The Edgewater only holds about 36 people, so the staff was very attentive, service was well timed, and all items were cooked to perfection. The room itself is a "country cabin A-frame" style, and never got to loud. We will be back on our next ski vacation to Whistler."

"Lovely Spot on the lake with white table cloths and candles and fireplace - elegant but relaxed and inviting. Friendly efficient service. Wonderful food ( and a lot of it - no skimpy portions!). Nice jazz played at soft level."

"The service was fantasitic. No problem putting together a delicious vegan meal for one of our group. And the food was supurb! Will definately go back!"
Dined on 1/24/2014
"This dinner was the highlight of our vacation. Nice and intimate and top notch food. White table cloths, candlelight, fireplace, and a view we wish we owned. Not pretentious but very special all the same. Thank you for taking such good care of us. Kudos all round :)"

"Edgewater has become a favourite of ours over the many years we have stayed at Whistler. It is not in the Village and is a little difficult to get to, but it is a wonderful quiet restaurant for conversation and unhurried dining. Great food always. The wine list is practical, not showy."
Dined on 1/9/2014
"Food was delicious, but service was lack luster with our main waitress never smiling, never refilling our wine glasses, and seeming to provide the requisite services without sincerity. Given the fact that we chose some of the most expensive dishes, one would expect better, warmer, and more genuine service. Would return for the food but not the service. We found all staff at the accomodations as well rather unpolished and a bit unfriendly. Not sure if they are overworked or simply lack training."

"Having visiting Whistler for several years, I can't believe I've never actually had dinner here. It is a short drive from the village just past Nicklaus North, but one rarely thinks to leave the Village or Creekside when considering dining options. The atmosphere at the Edgewater was intimate, similar to the Rim Rock in size which made for a lovely dining experience. Not nearly as pretentious as some of the other fine dining establishments, yet excellent quality. I would Highly recommend this restaurant as an alternative to Araxi, Rim Rock or Bearfoot for a fancy dinner out for a special occasion. Probably one of the best Salmon meals I have ever had."

"Service was poor, food was not good, value was beyond disappointing."
Dined on 12/25/2013
"Some intriguing menu options ( daughter started with steak tartare) flanked by comfortable falls backs ( my cod was so delicious that another member of our dinner party ordered cod the following night at a different venue and, when asked about it, replied " it is good but not as good as the cod you had"). Lovely, lovely ambience set the mood. We did not peruse the wine list"

"We have the Xmas eve , I had more expectation for the dinner, and for the price, the place is very nice"
Dined on 12/24/2013
"One of the main reasons for choosing this suggested restaurant was its open menu on Xmas. Unfortunately they only offered prefix on Xmas when website mentions nothing of this. Food was great!! All courses were quite enjoyable, however the service was sub par, not fine dining quality at all...we asked for everything we needed...water, wine glasses, food removal, wine refills, check, etc....if our tip was going straight to the kitchen staff that would have been most appropriate...we saw a few hard workers...but flow was not that of a top notch fine dining restaurant....maybe outside holiday is better option for this location"
Dined on 12/25/2013
"All of our food was DELICIOUS. Thanks again to the talented chef(s)! Our group of five ate at the Edgewater in early December, meaning that since ski season was not in full swing it was easy to get a reservation. We were there at night in the winter, but from their website it looks like they have a scenic view with outside dining and would be a good place for special events and weddings."

"I wanted something special for my girlfriends birthday on Dec 7th and did some research. Most reviews said that the food was great at this restaurant and so we went. The reviews were on the mark. The food was excellent, the atmosphere great, the service awesome. I personally had the Lamb and Venison Tartar, both unreal. Everyone in my group loved their food. Also the 3 course menu was reasonably priced at $39. I would recommend this restaurant any day of the week. Enjoy!"

"Lived in the area for 3 years, first time at the restaurant awesome experience. Will deffinetly return."

"Very beautiful this time of year- we went early so we could take in the lake which is looking very tourquoise and glacial now - and the snow capped mountains. Food, service, ambiance as usual were all A1."
Dined on 10/3/2013
"The beautifully simple dining room overlooks Green Lake. Birds flitter by the window. The menu has several Northwest coast items to select from. My husband had the venison and I had chicken from the Cowichan. Both were uniquely prepared and very tasty. Wine selection is nice and has several local Okanagan choices. Save room for exceptional dessert."

"Great find on Green Lake At Whistler, we dine here Every time we are up from Seattle Food Is over the top good!"
Dined on 3/16/2013
"Limited menu, but the amazing view, even on a rainy day like the day I went, was well worth the visit! Make sure you give yourself more time to take a walk around the property and the lake either before or after dinner"

"Restaurant could do with a definite interior updating. Food was good, but could be better. Service was excellent. Have dined at the restaurant many times over the past 20 years and this time, not so special."
Dined on 8/28/2013
"Edgewater is a gem in the midst of Whistler's excellent restaurant scene. The combination of breathtaking views, truly delicious food, and superb service all for a sensible price, makes for a thoroughly enjoyable dining experience. We have dined as a couple and as part of a larger group, either way its the perfect venue. A Whistler wonder! I can't recommend it enough!"
Dined on 8/22/2013
"We had been to Edgewater before and always enjoyed it but it has got even better in the past year. Food was great, four of us ordered different applies, mains and deserts and were all very happy with our choices. Reasonable wine list and service was good although only one server on duty so she was kept busy all evening. It was nice to enjoy a meal in Whistler without the usual noise and bustle."
Dined on 8/16/2013
"We were able to introduce some young friends to the Edgewater. Over the years we have eaten there many times in all seasons, and love the ambience and the food in particular. It was a beautiful evening and we had a wonderful time."

"Edgewater Lodge Restaurant is one of our favorite restaurants to dine at when we are vacationing in Whistler. The service and food are always outstanding. The outdoor patio with the views of Green Lake and the mountains would be hard to beat anywhere."

"Beautiful and serene setting for an excellent meal"
Dined on 7/2/2013
"Must get the pork belly/apple/celery salad - it was OMG! Wonderful. It was beautiful to sit outside and the staff was accomodating helping us take pictures to create memories of our event. The only reason I gave service less than an excellent rating was that the staff forgot several items that we ordered - drinks,coffee... But we will return, we love the food and love the ambience of the setting (nice to get away from the hustle of the Village)."
Dined on 7/2/2013
"We dined at Edgewater to try to find something a bit more unique than Whistler Village could provide. Edgewater was a bit campy, but had great food in a great setting."
Dined on 6/13/2013
"This is not an inexpensive restaurant. Typically tehre are about 8 entree choices. The food is extremely good, with variety for all. Coupled with the outstanding view, you can't go wrong venturing beyond Whistler Viallage."
