el furniture warehouse

a definite cheap eat!. went here with my bro and his wife and hubby. we are boomers and this place really is a twenty something to thirty something hangout. the music is very loud. however, if you want a really inexpensive dinner, then this is the place for you. almost everything on themenuis $4.95. i had the burger with the works and upgraded to a side of yam fries...it was still only $6.95. the burger was like a kicked up fast food burger, but the yam fries were really really good. everyone enjoyed their food. my bro had four of their tacos which were only $.95 each and he loved them (after the fourth one). my sister-in-law had the veggie burger which she said was good. my husband had the beef dip which he said was excellent. we shared a cinnamon donut dessert. with drinks (one alcohol and the other pop and tea) and all of the above the bill before tip was $47.00. if the music hadn't been so loud, i would've said this was the perfect cheap eat!

good is meh. service is meh. but the price is phenomenal. word to the wise: if your hungry order 2 meals because everything on themenuis cheap for a reason, the portions are relatively small.

ambiance: went during low peak times and was able to get a seat quickly. this place had great music playing. there were huge televisions on each side of the room. there was a mix of booths, and high tables.


the great thing about this place is that everything on themenuis decently priced!

the burger: it was very flavourful, decent portion size.

the pasta: needed a bit more flavor.

cheese cake: great


you can't go wrong with a place with great prices. definitely will go back

looking for a cheap bite after your ski/snow day on whistler blackcomb, go to el furniture warehouse. too bad i am a vegetarian because theirmenuis filled with yummy junk food! i had a beetroot salad with goat cheese. a side of calamari, and a chow men!! their drinks are awesome but overpriced. would recommend!

my party of 5 (+ 1 dog) decided to come to this restaurant since it's a popular restaurant for its cheap eats.

when we got here, there was a large lineup but it was expected. we quickly got into line and asked for a patio table to accommodate our dog. the hostess holding a clipboard told us that it would be a 15-20 minute wait to which we agreed. the line was partially blocking the entrance so the people in line were told to move to the side, which was reasonable. after a while, one of my friends went in to check with the hostess the status of our position in line. the hostess gave her attitude and told her that she will come to her and not the other way around. the hostess later came to check on the line and she asked for us for our party size again since she didn't recognize us. we told her we were next in line for a table and she told us that we needed to be in line in order to be served. we explained that she moved the line to the side in the first place. she shrugged and said its not up to her to remember who is next in line and that it's the restaurant patrons' job to know. according to her, it's first come first serve. what's the point of holding a clipboard if you're not going to use it to write down names for a wait list?

we had to leash our dog closer to the outside fence despite being seated at a patio table. as a result, we wanted to move to another table closer to the dog since we were afraid that the dog was going to bother other guests by whining. the waitress told us no and gave no reason; by the way, that same table stayed empty for the entire time we were there.

at the end, we were auto-charged a gratuity for a group of 6. we only had a group of 5. when asked about it, the waitress told us that the restaurant features a $5menuso they need to make a profit somehow.

i tried to ask the hostess about the gratuity conditions but she gave me attitude and said to find my waitress and then left without helping refer me to someone who could help.

the manager was a little more helpful. she listened to our concerns and helped us get our gratuity money back. however, she did make a comment that made our group slightly offended. she had said that in canada it is customary to tip and that if we were canadian then we would know.

our group understands a tip is due when the service is satisfactory. also, we're all canadian as well...

the food was decent for its pricing but the customer service experience was horrible. we probably won't ever come to this restaurant again. it's unfortunate because its sister locations are quite good.

we love this place! we had to que for like 30 mins just to get in! we found out about "el furniture warehouse" by word of mouth - the locals all sort of hide it from you but want to tell you about it at the same time. it's down the bottom of whistler village and it's a pumping little bar - all the staff look like they literally walked out of general pants co. - the food tastes great and is large portion size - and everything on the entiremenuis $4.95!!!!! all entree's, mains, salads, mexican, burgers, deserts. all $5. in whistler - this is a must.

food: 7/10
service: 9/10
vibe: 9.5/10
price: 10/10

ok this is quite contradicting, the place, is just okay, felt like more of a bar type of settings, but at the same time the food is cheap for a location like whistler :dd, $5menubring it on, i can even eat 3 of them and for $15 i will be full and be a happy man :d 

i ordered a burger and a pasta, and both tasted decent, just like my home cooking, and maybe i can do a little better if given the ingredients and time, but in terms of taste... it's okay, slightly more towards the 2.5 i'll say, but for the price that i'm paying at whistler then it's definitely a 3. i would say it's my go to place if i'm not cooking in whistler at all. so yea, this place i would recommend for big eaters like me and spending on a tight budget in whistler. :)

i was pleasantly surprised by my dinning experience. great food and you can't beat the price at $5 for allmenuitems, though the bacon up charge is well worth it! best grilled cheese i've had in a long time and the tomatoes soup was delightful. the only mistake was the use of canned beets in the beet salad, they really should have roasted some fresh beets if they are going to name the dish after it.

$5 menu. hands down the best value for money in whistler... everything on themenuis $5.

20c wings on wednesdays & 95c tacos on tuesdays :)

good value, mediocre food. my biggest problem with my experience was actually the large groups of people waiting for tables, they were literally standing over my table, watching me eat and making it impossible to have a conversation. i have never encountered so many rude customers all in one place! as soon as that massive group was seated yet another woman stood there and pretty much watched me eat my food. is it that it's tourists that are so beyond rude?? she was almost leaning on me she was so close to me. can they not see someone is trying to eat their food or do they really care so little about the other people around them?

getting past that, my server was very nice and checked on us even though she was very very busy. i made sure she got a nice tip as its not her fault the food was not very good.

i had the burger that many reviewers said was good, every element about the burger, the bun, the bacon, and the sauce was really great. but the burger patty was just awful, like it was a frozen safeway patty or something. the nachos would have been great had they had more then 2 tablespoons of cheese (3/4 of the chips were totally bare). and my boyfriend said his spicy chicken quesadilla was really good.

so i believe it's a matter of knowing what to order, i think there is some potential but i was really hoping this place would be better. also the $5menuattracts a lot of people you can tell are only there for the price. for the great deal it's worth a try. oh and the drinkmenuwas amazing

5/5 saving the best for last. warehouses usually mean that the place has really cheap food. and in this case, everything was $5. what. a. steal. el furniture warehouse had really good portions. my favorite has got to be the works burger and fries. absolutely fantastic. great fries. my mom got the asian noodle salad which tasted really fresh and the presentation was fantastic. their yam fries are great! the potato skins are mediocre, probably wouldn't order that again. the chicken wrap was pretty tasty. the chicken quesadillas were better. the banana split is mediocre. almost everything on themenuis fantastic. you honestly can't go wrong with $5 a dish. went there twice, loved it twice. the only downside is that it gets pretty darn busy so you won't get your food very quickly. their wifi is also kind of iffy on the left side. they also have seasonal dishes, which i really appreciate the effort. click here for the works burger and all it's glory. definitely going back. highly recommend

el furniture warehouse is a great little bar/restaurant in whistler village. their main draw is that their entire foodmenuis $4.95. my coworker told me about this place last year, but i finally got to visit it today after a day of snowboarding. this place is usually busy, being that everything is under $5. but today we went a little after the lunch rush and were seated immediately. themenuis quite large with items like pasta, sandwiches, and tacos. i was tempted to order a bunch of things, but kept it to just 3. it’s so hard to order just a little bit when everything is so cheap. i ordered the spaghetti carbonara which is on their april specials menu. it was pretty good, actually pretty amazing for

eat here first!. excellent restaurant! was disappoint that we ate elsewhere the first few days in whistler. a simple stir-fry lunch at a competing restaurant was over $80 for two of us. after finding this place we tried almost everything on themenuthoughout the week. could not have been more pleased. excellent service every time.
