The Scene
Since 1924, this elegant restaurant in the Fairmont Olympic Hotel has provided a grand setting for memorable dinners. Its opulent decor and four-star service create a distinctly posh, regal atmosphere. The crowd includes locals and big-business types hoping to impress their clients. Hotel visitors round out the scene in the sophisticated terrace bar and luxurious dining room.
The Food
Seasonal menus feature some items that rate low in fat and calories, such as smoked salmon carpaccio with beluga caviar relish and seared scallops with melted baby leeks and truffle dressing. Mostly, though, decadence holds sway. Among the appetizers: lobster and Dungeness crab cocktail with heirloom tomatoes, seared duck liver, caramelized cauliflower soup, and butter-boiled spot prawn. Entrees include rack of lamb, roasted sea bass, sauteed scallops, and roasted venison loin. Among the fine showy desserts, the Grand Marnier souffle stands out.

My boyfriend and I had the unfortunate experience of dining at The Georgian the night before Thanksgiving. Instead of spending Thanksgiving day with friends and family, the day was spent throwing up from 3 am to 5 pm. This not only ruined our Thanksgiving plans, but also the next 4 days as we tried to recover. It took 5 calls to various managers before I heard a response to my complaint. Needless to say, I will never dine at The Georgian again.

I love this restaurant. It is very fancy and expensive but well worth it. You are treated like royalty and the food is prepared to look fantastic when it arrives at the table. Excellent food, excellent staff and excellent restaurant!

This place is fancy-shmancy, but more in the traditional style than the urban-trendy one. I don't think the dinner cuisine lives up to its ambiance (or is worth the high prices) - but afternoon tea and late night dessert are a good way to soak up the vibe without breaking the vault.
