We are fussy when it comes to eating out. This was one of the best food experiences we’ve had. Service was great. Server was so professional. But the MOST important thing, the food, was spot on. Delicious, great proportions, presentation etc etc. it was expensive but that wasn’t a surprise.

It’s not difficult to find the grill in the resort. In addition, both Google maps and Google search show the grill as being temporarily closed, so that was also quite confusing

We had a group of 7. Our food ranged from the best salmon ever to a cold steak, which had to be sent back twice and finally was just eaten despite being cold & overcooked because we'd already been there for almost 3 hours. Another fish dish arrived lukewarm. I think because the kitchen isn't in the restaurant and the food needs to be brought across the lobby, it greatly affects the temperature of the food. The wait staff was very good. The ambiance was lovely. The room we were sat in was gorgeous. The prices are overly inflated, even for Fairmont. For the amount of time it took and the fact that my food was never correct, I can't recommend. As stated, some others in the party had fantastic food, which arrived correct and hot the first time.

We dined at The Grill Room in 2016 and were blown away by the service and cuisine. This year was no exception. We reserved very early and we're glad we did, since we were seated at the best table in the house in their wine humidifier-walled solarium. Very quiet with a warm atmosphere. Our service was impeccable. Very attentive server, excellently crafted cocktails, and artistically plated mouth-watering cuisine. You'll need to dig a bit deeper in your wallet to dine here, but I would happily pay the price again. Each visit here isn't just eating, it's a dining experience.

For a special night we booked a table for two at the Grill Room this past Saturday night. Truly a lovely room. We had an excellent server. We started with the oysters. The marinated cucumber and apple mignonette was a refreshing topping. Delicious. A great start to the meal. Unfortunately what followed didn't meet the same standard. The Caesar salad was not up to par. A lot of vinegar -and really missed the mark in terms of being a great Caesar salad. The addition of kale, while interesting, really detracted from the classic Caesar taste I was looking for. My partner had the Sea to Sky vegetarian dish. We should have been more award of the "quotation" marks around the word "risotto" . Lots of carrots. The pan seared sea scallops were quite nice but I would suggest the chef try searing them on both sides - a tad undercooked on the bottom. Our server surprised us with a glass each of late harvest wine and some chocolates. A nice way to end the meal. All in all, it was a nice experience but the food was not quite to the standard I would have expected at the Fairmont.

Really tasty food, fab service and great ambiance! The food did take a while to come so I’d advise with little ones getting the earliest sitting and they don’t have a kids menu - it’s more a pick off the sides or share with an adult. Food was worth the wait though!!!

Started off not so great by having to wait a while for our table with no one at the welcome desk. So we’re just stood around lost for a good amount of time. This was soon rectified by the waitress giving us both a complimentary drink & entree for our troubles. Once seated the service & food from start to finish was perfection. Cannot flaw this place and the setting at all. Was special & warm. Will be returned on my next trip to Canada

Menu description of dishes was very basic - I ordered lobster tails, there was no mention that it came on loads of mashed potato! We sat down to eat at 7.30pm - our drinks were very slow, we didn’t order our food until 8.15pm and our main courses were not served till 9.15pm. Very expensive - but excellent food, service from nice people but sooooo slow

Our server Katie was wonderful. The meal overall was very good. Risotto was excellent. Scallops were delicious as well. Unfortunately the steak was not great. Quite a bit of tough grizzle. We pointed it out and a new very good steak was brought out quickly. They made it right so we’d definitely go back.

Expensive cuts of meat. Most likely they posses the appropriate / high end equipment. When these end up raw or burned / dry as a cardboard - they need train their chef or hire a new one. Service and ambience - perfect!
