This intimate, cozy restaurant serves Spanish-influenced small plates and tapas for lunch and dinner. You can sit right up at the bar and watch (and chat with) the chef as he prepares everything from wild scallops with capers, olives, and oranges to roasted shishito peppers with romesco sauce to their popular charcuterie boards. The bar menu is equally as impressive—specifically, the gin-and-tonic selection (a popular drink in Spain). The staff are friendly and knowledgeable.

As one of Whistler's top destination restaurants, this elegant bistro never fails to impress. The modern Canadian-inspired cuisine means that the menu choices, which change daily depending on the availability of local products, may include anything from a rack of wild caribou with sweet corn to pepper-crusted elk carpaccio to steamed Dungeness crab with garlic herbed butter. If everything looks too delicious to decide, let chef Melissa Craig customize a five-course tasting menu or you can simply go for the three-course menu. Allow the sommelier to do the wine pairings for a really masterful meal.

Well-chosen antiques and original artwork create a vibrantly chic atmosphere for what has always been one of Whistler's top fine-dining restaurants. Local farmers grow produce exclusively for Araxi's chef, who also makes good use of regional cheeses, game, and fish. The food is fresh and innovative, best described as Pacific Northwest cuisine. Seafood is a specialty, so while you can certainly order a superbly prepared beef tenderloin, it's dishes like alder-smoked Arctic char or handmade pasta with wild prawns, scallops, and mussels that steal the show. The two-tier seafood tower is a must-try for seafoodies who love to graze and share. Wine aficionados take note: the wine list is 43 pages long. A heated patio is open in summer, and the lounge is a popular afternoon and après-ski spot, especially for its oyster bar.

This trendy spot has an impressive wine list, fun happy hour, and outstanding outdoor patio (which they keep open in the winter with heated lamps). Popular dishes include the cornish game hen with collard greens, roasted sockeye salmon, and the glazed pork belly with caramelized onion and yam hash. They also serve lunch on Friday and brunch on the weekends.

On-mountain dining is surprisingly accessible to those without skis. On Blackcomb Mountain, there's Christine's, offering classic dishes such as crab risotto, or fish curry. Once only accessible to skiers, now you can get here via the gondola from Whistler. Because of this, most patrons tend to be decked out in full snow gear. Christine's is open in summer.

Locals consistently rank Elements, which is found in Summit Lodge, as having the best tapas in the area. It's a hip eatery with everyone from animated thirtysomethings to jet-setting families with young children. The draw here is the open-concept kitchen that produces locally inspired small plates that are perfect for sharing. Steamed Salt Spring Island mussels with lemongrass, Kaffir lime, and coconut green curry are yummy, as are the deconstructed ahi tuna tacos and roast duck breast with maple roasted root vegetables. Pair your small plates with fine Canadian wines. The restaurant is open for breakfast, too, when several variations of eggs Benedict are the stars.

If beef's your passion, then you don't get much better than Hy's, a hard-core steak house that's famous for the quality of its sirloins, filet mignons, porterhouses, and New York strips. Beef Wellington comes in a handmade flaky crust, and the combos are accompanied by king crab or lobster. This is he-man food, although the menu will appeal to everyone, even vegetarians. The place is dark, moody, and just right for a candlelit dinner, a secret rendezvous, or a more formal affair. Service is impeccable and discreet.

The Brass," as it's known, has one of the area's best patios, situated in the square where people-watching is as entertaining as the street performers and free concerts. With this kind of location the food doesn't have to be outstanding, but you can nevertheless get reasonably priced bistro fare, from burgers to steaks. It opens for breakfast with an assortment of egg dishes and keeps going until the après-ski crowd finally departs around midnight. As popular as this place is, tables turn over quickly so getting a seat doesn't take long.

This bustling little bakery is popular with tourists and locals alike. They serve delicious coffee, as well as plenty of sweet and savory goodies, from three-cheese sandwiches and vegan raspberry scones to gourmet banana and chocolate brownies and more. The perfect spot for breakfast or a midafternoon snack. There's a second location on Millar Creek Road.

Vancouverites in search of fine Italian fare flock to the Pinnacle Hotel for warming après-ski meals. The dining room exudes a whimsical Venetian style with ornamental ironwork, picturesque tiles, and hand-painted chandeliers. For a splurge try L'Abbuffata, a five-course Roman feast that comes on family-size platters meant for sharing. Other popular dishes include spaghetti pescatore (with prawns, scallops, and clams), pistachio-crusted sea bass, pressed Cornish game hen, and a plate of five pastas for two to share for a reasonable fixed price. The cellar is filled with 900 wine varieties and an impressive grappa selection.

About 3 km (2 miles) south of the village, this restaurant is a perennial favorite as much for its cozy, unpretentious dining room as for its great seafood. Although seafood takes precedence on the menu—try the raw oysters with champagne—Alberta beef and local game will satisfy carnivores. If you want a booth or a coveted table near the fireplace, dine on the early side or make a reservation. Otherwise, be prepared to wait.

Although it's atop Whistler Mountain, you're likely to see as many nonskiers as skiers in the crowd dining here. That's because Steeps Grill & Wine Bar is located inside the enormous Roundhouse Lodge at the top of Whistler Village Gondola, and lots of the visitors are simply sightseers. While other mountain dining outlets tend to cater to the grab-and-go crowd, this venue is a stay-a-while, full-service dining affair offering lots of west coast favorites like smoked salmon chowder and sockeye salmon and succotash.

If you don't equate sushi with social buzz, then you haven't been to this perennial Whistler hot spot, which offers everything from après-ski to late-night dining. The chef's choice sashimi is a favorite, as are the dozen different house special rolls, including one tasty combination of shrimp tempura, avocado, scallops, and salmon. There are also teriyaki dinners and hot pots served family-style as well as a gluten-free menu. Phoning ahead for take-out orders lets you jump the line.
