La Rua takes its name from the Spanish term for the archway to European towns. Owner Mario Enero's background is European, but the cuisine at La Rua is truly international with the Pacific Northwest influencing the menu which is rich in seafood, steak and game.
Executive Chef R.D Stewart uses only local organic produce and ocean wise certified seafood.
La Rua's extensive wine list that has over 400 wines to choose from has been recognized by Wine Spectator with their Award of Excellence since 1995.
A warm Mediterranean decor links two distinct rooms; One with a view of the ski slopes and the other a cozy room that is enhanced by the surrounding mural. La Rua is proud to be recognized as one of the best mountain resort restaurants in North America and is one of the top 100 places to dine in Canada.
La Rua is located at the base of Blackcomb Mountain just a short 5 minute scenic walk from Whistler Village.
