Dinner
Whitefish Lake Restaurant The most wonderful of the Whitefish Restaurants. Doug and Vicki will make your evening a special one. The food is consistently great and we particularly like the prime rib, (Wed-Sun)Café Kandahar A special place – near the village at the Whitefish Mountain resort. The food is spectacular and the surroundings very “Big Mountain” it is, for Whitefish, quite expensive, but very much worth it for an occasional important eventWasabi As good as you get for this far from the ocean! Very popular sushi house, so you need to book in advance.
