It's amazing fine dining. The food is so full of flavors. The service is impeccable.  And the ambience is perfect.

Exceptional and nothing short of amazing... From the service to the well crafted cuisine, Cafe Kandahar is arguably Michelin star worthy - Must try when visiting Whitefish.

We booked reservations after reading about the chef being a James Beard semifinalist. The food and service were great. It was a fun evening with friends. Food : 5/5 | Service : 5/5 | Atmosphere : 5/5 More

We ordered the 4 couse meal with the wine pairing which was $310 for the two of us. The dining room is very bright and for some reason the tables are partitioned off with clear plastic giving it an air of a hospital/cafeteria vibe. Our waiter was fine but the wine guy, Cory, hit a sour note. He was describing a wine and flat out said at one point, "I don't really know". Awesome. The first course was supposedly a smoked salmon pancake thing but it all would have fit in a tablespoon so I took there word for it. 2nd course was octopus or crab. We got one of each. They were delicious but once again, no more than 2 bites. Next was pork belly or duck and once again, we got one of each. They were both delicious but were also a 2 bite appetizer. Finally we got to the main couse. We were so hungry as we'd only had 6 bites of food to this point. I got the bison tenderloin and my husband got the Wagu short ribs. Like everything else, it was delicious. $372.45 later we went into town and got a pizza. While the super expensive appetizers were very good, it's not a dinner. The only reason I gave it 2 stars was because the little food that we did get, was very good.
