   Nice room. Decent buffet, but we had to wait often for items to be replenished.

   We had a fantastic meal at Nita Lake Lodge's "The Den" last night. We opted for the tasting menu, which came with a. Amuse Bouche du jour, Tuna Tataki, spicy rigatoni, vegetable kofia, chocolate torte, and a lemon custard. Everything was super tasty and the service was phenomenal, which made for the perfect way to celebrate a birthday. We'll be back for sure next time we're in town.

   Thé staff just clearly did not care about our dinner. The waitress was rude, impatient and clearly does not want to be in her role.

   Overall service was too slow and infrequent. We left early after nearly 2 hours and no main course. Party of 4, 2 had small plates & 2 had main course only. Long after our friends finished their small plates our server comes to ask if we want more small plates or if we are ready for her to enter the main course. This statement shocked us as we were here over 1.5hr by now and 2 of us only had bread and wine and it seemed our plates were not in the kitchen yet?! We decided to cancel our main plates as it was getting too late for a heavy meal. The supervisor came out and tried to encourage us to stay even with the main plates compensated (after we asked to cancel them, so naturally we had no intentions of eating or paying for them). The awkwardness was at a high level that we wanted this to be done. The bill was for everything we ate/drank and we paid. However I wish there was more of a guest service offering for the poor experience we had while waiting at The Den as our bread or small plates were not offered compensated as gesture for their shortcoming of extremely slow service and lack of follow up at our table.

   We dined at the Den this evening and had a lovely experience. Our server was Aaron and we enjoyed his easy going personality and his menu suggestions were on point. We were celebrating my husbands 40th birthday and they definitely made him feel celebrated tonight. We will definitely come back next time we are in Whistler. Highly recommended the mushroom toast for a starter and the salmon and duck were excellent as well!

    super overpriced for what it is. the description of the food on the menu sounded amazing but both my partner and I were very underwhelmed with our dinner. I ordered the salmon and it was a very small piece with no sides so I was still hungry after. For what we were paying, I expected something a bit more substantial or at least much more flavourful. We went for a nice romantic dinner and the ambiance was not great and the decor was not very nice.
