Braidwood Tavern

Is a burger without a bun a burger? If you charge $42 for a wagyu burger BUT you don’t have a celiac main in your menu, are you a legitimate restaurant? FOUR SEASONS how can you fail so profoundly? Our waiter Toby saved the day with humor and empathy. We had lunch but since there are NO celiac mains in their menu we will NEVER come back for dinner, much less lunch. How can a high end restaurant fail so badly in 2025?

I dined at Braidwood three times on my trip to Whistler. The breakfast is excellent, and the serving sizes are generous. However, the prices are steep. If you don’t have breakfast included with your room, it might be worth it to look elsewhere in the area. The omelet was fantastic, and with the side of bacon, I received 11 slices. A bit excessive, but I’ll take it. For dinner I got the seared salmon. The skin was nice and crispy, but not much flavor all the way around. The texture of the rice was also strange. They didn’t have any gluten-free desserts, but they were able to get the menu from the neighboring fine dining restaurant Sidecut for me. The 20-layer cake was disappointing though. You can’t cut a cake into 20 slices and call it a 20-layer cake. Service was excellent throughout my visits!
