Rimrock Café

We had a wonderful time last night! Our waitress was lovely and explained the menu to us. We tried many different dishes between two of us and left full! The cocktails and desert were also delicious, next time were in Whistler we will absolutely be back!

We have regularly dined at Rim Rok over the last 10 years and always found the food and service to be consistently good. Last night I would call it exceptional. Our server was a true professional, gentle in manner and friendly without being intrusive. The cocktails are superb and I wish I could have tried them all. We shared salads - blue cheese iceberg, goats cheese filo and my favourite the mushroom salad which also happens to be vegan. The highlight of the dinner was my main dish of Lions Mane mushrooms (Steak) served marinated with fries and green beans with a shaving of white truffle. A true delight to have such an innovative vegan main dish - I felt like I was not missing out in terms of flavour and balance amongst my family who were having steak and fish dishes on this usually meat heavy menu. Highly recommended.

One of our top dinner experiences ever for my wife and I. This is a very rare 5 out of 5 Stars for me. We dined here Sunday October 13 2024. The food was beyond very good, service was very attentive and caring and the atmosphere was warm and cozy. We had the Fall Special, $69 each and pick 3 of 4 course choices which we shared. For the first course, my wife chose the raw oysters and I chose the lobster bisque. The oysters were very well prepared and the lobster bisque was very nice and creamy, not too strong but elegant. For the second course my wife skipped because she picked a dessert, more on that later. I got the beef tatare which again was very nice and well balanced and had a cured egg yolk on top that you then mix in. For the main, third course my wife chose the Salmon which after asking was King Salmon otherwise called Chinook Salmon. It was done to perfection, the best we have ever had. It was juicy and flaky because it was cooked medium raw if I recall correctly. For my main third course I had the 14oz Ribeye Steak with frites and asparagus. I ordered it Chicago style, so near rare but with a good char on the outside. This is the first time anyone has got it right. The Bernaise sauce was a great addition to the rich flavor of the perfectly prepared and presented dish. For the Dessert, my wife's choice was the delicious Basque Cheesecake which didn't disappoint. The service upon arrival was nothing short of great from the host Sue to our wonderful waitress Sarah who took pictures for us and was very attentive, warm and knowledgeable about all aspects of all the dish choices. I appreciated that they timed and brought out the dishes to us shortly after we were finished the last dish. For instance, since my wife skipped the Second choice to opt for the dessert they brought out my second choice of Tatare knowing we were sharing then we were both served our mains at the same time. This may seem trivial to some but it was very professional and attentive. Also to have both a Salmon dish and a Steak dish ready and served at the same time to perfection when they both take different amounts of time and care to prepare was impressive. My wife and I were there to Celebrate not only my Birthday but our Anniversary and most importantly our Baby Moon which for those that may not have heard of that is when you go on a trip before expecting a birth of a child. So we had a few things to celebrate besides it also being Thanksgiving weekend. They set us up with a special table near the Fireplace which we absolutely loved. It was very thoughtful and made us feel very appreciated. For drinks my wife had a Virgin drink called Road to Hana which is orange, coconut, mango, pineapple, guava and passionfruit which she enjoyed very much. I started with a Moscow Mule then had a pint of Guinness with my steak. We had such a great experience that we won't hesitate to come back in the future. We absolutely will be back. As they said it's a tradition to come back to celebrate and we have a few to pick from. Thanks from both my wife and I for the wonderful evening 💖

Excellent service and amazing food. We had the clams, salmon, seafood trio, and toffee pudding for dessert. All dishes were amazing! Best restaurant I've been to in Whistler so far

Fabulous dining experience - lived up to its hype and recommendations as best restaurant in Whistler for many years . Wonderful friendly staff , owners and met chef extraordinaire . Fantastic seafood and duck/ lamb/ steak offerings . Huge wine list ! Highly recommend going - book ahead to get in !

Yes, the food is great but this 5 star review was motivated by the service. Our server Kelly was exceptional and really made our evening! We had oysters, tomato salad special, ceviche and seafood trio, cheesecake and toffee pudding all was delicious!

Mother's Day dinner, 2024. A wonderful culinary experience. This was our first time at the Rimrock Cafe. It was outstanding. Guillaume, our server, was so knowledgeable and friendly- he made our evening extra special. 1. Lobster bisque: out of this world good. The Rimrock makes their bisque from scratch. 2. Beef tartare: exceptional dish. Well presented. 3. Seafood Trio (Prawns, salmon, Albacore tuna): perfect portions and sauces.

Really nice experience at Rim Rock. Everything was mostly excellent. Our server was extremely well versed in all aspects of the menu which made our meal selections very easy. Our one and only issue was that the tuna in the seafood trio was overcooked. Quite disappointing as this would suggest a lack of quality control at the plating stage. As far as other menu items, the venison was delicious. We appreciated the complimentary cheesecake at the end of the meal. Would highly recommend if staying in Whistler.
