The chef's tasting menu was incredible! The cocktails were creative and tasty. Highly recommend this restaurant.
The sushi appetizer was very good — the tuna was excellent and the salmon was good. The Caesar salad was excellent as well. We ordered the ribeye, which was good but I would not call it great, especially when compared with other prime steakhouses. It was served warm but not hot, which is my personal preference. The flavor was good, though the sauce it was cooked in was a bit heavy for my taste (understanding this is a personal preference). Service was impeccable, and the staff took excellent care of diners throughout the meal. Overall, the experience was good and aligns with the ratings, but given the very high price point for both steak and wine, I would likely try another steakhouse in the area before returning.
Shared a delicious deconstructed Caesar salad and a strip steak. More than enough for my husband and I. Our server Damian was excellent.
We had an amazing experience dining here! The NY strip was unreal and Oscar was a great and accommodating server. Highly recommend!
I've visited Sidecut many times over the years, and while the food on this visit was decent, I think this will likely be my last. Unfortunately, it's just not what it used to be. The food is good, but not memorable—certainly not at a level that justifies the current prices. The bigger issue, however, is the service. It felt disorganized despite the number of staff on the floor. It seemed like countless people interacted with our table, yet our primary server didn't check in for nearly 20 minutes after we were seated. Everything moved slowly. A simple order of appetizers and two mains turned into a dinner lasting over two hours. As for the food, some dishes missed the mark. The Caesar salad was disappointing, especially at $44, and the wagyu crudo was one-dimensional. That said, the lamb, fish, and mac and cheese were excellent. Overall, the restaurant feels like it lacks cohesion. With so many staff members, service should be seamless, but instead it felt inefficient and unfocused. The comparison to Araxi (another simliar priced restaurant in Whistler ) the night before was unavoidable. Araxi delivered better service, more consistently impressive food, more reasonable pricing, and a stronger wine program. Sidecut's by-the-glass list was particularly weak—mostly BC wines at $30 per glass or premium selections at $50–$90, which feels excessive and out of touch. Sadly, Sidecut no longer lives up to its reputation.
Food was okay, VERY overpriced and ambiance was not great. Definitely not worth the price.

A luxurious experience, but the price is out of reach for many. The food was incredible; however, many items were not warm. Great service and ambience.
Our experience here was very good with one overwhelming exception that caused a lot of trouble. Food, table service, presentation, and environment was top rate. The music was a bit loud but forgivable. Price was very high but not unexpected, wines are 2.5 to 3 x retail for Canadian wines, more for out of country. Our bad experience was the reservation was legitimately made and confirmed the day of the meal for a price fixed 4 course meal I arranged for a table of my friends to attend. 40 minutes before our reservation I received a call confirming our reservation and asking if we knew the fixed price meal offering was discontinued 9 days prior, which was ahead of their published schedule. No one had called or contacted us in any way to say that, and it caused a conversation about what to do. Not enough was done (in our opinion) about the situation, just a 20% discount and free desserts. Even so, we ended up spending 2-3 times more than expected, over $200 per person instead of $68 per person. Expectations were not met, and our feeling was the management made a mistake that was handled poorly. Be careful with this restaurant!
We came for their fall price fix menus and it was one of the best dinner experiences my husband and I have had in a while. Food was delicious, service was great, and the overall atmosphere was nice.
This is our second season of enjoying the fall Whistler special at Side Cut. Fabulous. Both times the quality of taste and presentation were excellent. The choice of each category was so good, I wanted to try all of them. Servers were personable and professional. The restaurant is so comfortable. Whole experience at both season was superb.

It had been a while since I last visited the Sidecut in the Four Seasons Whistler, mainly because it’s a bit out of the village, but I’m so glad I went back. Free valet parking when dining at Sidecut is a great bonus.
The food was absolutely phenomenal, it’s been a long time since I’ve been wowed like this. The oysters, scallops, beef tartare, and foie gras parfait were all pure perfection. Service was warm, friendly, and made the experience even better. Highly recommend!

Had a wonderful experience dining here! So many gluten free options and they were willing and able to accommodate for celiac disease ! Highly recommend!
The place is calm and very intimate, the staff was great but, nothing was outstanding, all what we ordered was average and to be honest there are better options in whistler, it was convenient because we were staying at the hotel.
