As a result, the Whitetooth Bistro has evolved to satisfy and impress both visitors and locals alike. We value quality ingredients, proper craftmanship and the continuous creation of our menus to offer you something that is impressive without being pretentious.
We never want our visitors to feel taken advantage of and we want our locals to always feel like we are a great choice. Fairly priced, with food created and served by real people, we want our guests, whether you are an integral part of BC mountain life or are a first-time visitor, to feel you were offered a complete and satisfying dining experience without any unnecessary ceremony.

We were just touring downtown Golden wondering were to eat and found the Whitetooth Mountain Bistro. Very good food and great service. We shared a large Greek salad. Very fresh veggies with great roasted tomatoes and lots of olives and argula! Best salad in a long time! I had the special meatball pappardelle made with fresh homemade pasta and a great rose sauce. Taste was great! Meatballs nice and lean. Highly recommended spot. Will definitely eat here again next time we pass through Golden!!

This place is a gem in the town of Golden BC. The food was great and they had plenty of patio seating that was distanced, making it a great option during COVID. My friend and I split the burger and broccoli salad because having balance is important! We obviously had to pair the burger with poutine, which was incredibly satisfying after a long day of hiking.
Frankly, there aren't that many options in Golden, but if you're struggling to pick a place to eat, I'd choose this place!

This brew pub is located in downtown Golden. We stopped and had lunch on the patio out back. There is seating inside but we wanted to have our meal outside. They also have patio seating at the front of the restaurant. We shared a hamburger and substituted onion rings for fries.
The service and service were both decent.

Interesting menu with unusual offerings. We tried the jackfruit sliders (sweet) and heirloom tomatoes on crust (very salty). The jug of beer on tap was a citrusy flavor (very good). Yam burger was interesting- the side order of fries were great. Dessert was an excellent chocolate orange cheesecake slice. Great cheerful ambience and staff were friendly

My fiance and are were looking for a place for lunch while visiting Golden, BC and found this place. I had the burger and fries and it was pretty good. I really like the fried pickle that came with the meal. We sat outside on the patio, the service was fine. They would always fill my water, however, only asked me once if I wanted a refill on my soda. Overall, not a bad place for lunch.

The ambiance was nice, especially with the outdoor seating. However the food was very underwhelming. My group had the beet marinated salmon for appetizer, Thai vegetable bowl, and the lamb entree. It seems like there's a lot of thought that goes into the meals (especially the descriptions on the menu) but the execution is off.
For the price I was expecting a lot more.

Super surprised to find such high quality VEGAN cuisine in Golden, B.C. while stopping in town to ski at Kicking Horse. I honestly could say their pecan & panko encrusted yam burger is in my top 5 vegan burgers of ALL TIME (out of Toronto, NYC, LA, Chicago, Philly, etc.). The chickpea shepherd's pie is super savory and delicious. They even have a vegan dessert option!!! The vegan chocolate pumpkin tart is fantastic - maximum flavor without overbearing sweetness. Beautiful dining space and top notch service. Couldn't be more delighted. Whitetooth Mountain Bistro is a MUST stop

Cold outside
Wet with intermittent downpours of rain
Raw mountain day at 39 degrees...
We sought out refuge from the elements while looking for a nice quality meal. This spot didn't disappoint at all :)
Very nice atmosphere we arrived just at the rush of lunch. Food quality was good with innovative dishes offered in a nice space with good service.
We left with more to explore and don't regret our choice to visit Whitetooth for lunch.

We don't make a habit of handing our 5-star ratings but IF there were any short-comings on this experience, it's easily overlooked by the fact you're in Golden, BC (Pop. 6,300) and not really expecting much.
This would be an amazing meal experience anywhere, but it absolutely blew our minds when we stumbled across the place en route to Banff. Stephanie, Brittany, and Zachary Scott took great care of us and we're forever thankful.
We had the scallops which were lightly grilled and topped with tobiko, green curry mussels in amazing broth, and the 10 oz. New York done blue-rare

Good presentation, but the food is a bit overpriced and underwhelming.
We had the scallops appetizer and pork shank and steak entrées.
The scallops dish was only two scallops on the plate. The waiter did mention it was a small appetizer but I thought it would be at least 4 scallops of this size. The scallops were way too salty.
The five spice pork shank was our favorite thing that we ordered, it was cooked beautifully until it was falling apart. The seasoning was good, but the accompanying charcoal infused gnocchi could have been better.
We asked for the steak to be cooked medium but it

The steak sandwhich in had here was way over priced for the size. The service was prompt and the overall flavor was good. The borscht on special stone the show and was in a league of its own.
The atmosphere is upscale country bistro super clean and modern. I thought the staff were very friendly and attentive.

Food quality is good, but the service is totally worse than any of the restaurant I have ever eaten. Slow and lazy service. The whole dinner service without appetizer and desert takes about 2 hours! And at the end, it took the waiter 10min to give us the card machine to pay the check (and the card machine is right on the water station)
food looks so pretty but they are definitely not worth of the money. Pork chop is dry, wild mushroom is too salty, steak has no taste! With the same amount of money, we can have way much better service and food from other restaurants in town (like turning point)

Went here for our first dinner in town. There was very few people inside so we thought maybe we had made a mistake. However, it was very good meal. We started with mussels and a Caesar salad. My father got the steak salad. I got the market pasta and my husband got the burger. My pasta was good but a tad heavy for summer. I got the Pom Punch and it was very good. The waitress was friendly. We finished the meal with the crème brulee. The interior of the place is nice. They have outside seating as well. The only thing is the entire meal took about two hours. Extremely slow getting the

My boyfriend and I heard about this restaurant from the waitress of another restaurant we were trying to eat at, but was fully booked.
I'm glad she recommended it. The food was very flavorful and delicious. We ordered the bison meatloaf and the big deal burger.
I would recommend this restaurant for dinner if you are in the Golden area.
