This family-owned farm-to-table pizzeria serves authentic Naples ‘za in the heart of Lake Country. It’s conveniently located next to the electric bike rental shop: following an afternoon of touring the Okanagan Rail Trail or Lake Country wineries on two wheels, you’ll be sure to stop in here for some Italian comfort food.
Lots of windows and crisp white-linen tablecloths make this restaurant as bright as a French café, and the menu offers an array of classics. Signature dishes include a mouthwatering bouillabaisse containing everything from fresh rockfish and cod, to scallops, shrimp, and mussels; and a hearty cassoulet that includes duck confit, smoked pork belly, and Toulouse sausage over a navy bean ragout.
With amazing views overlooking Okanagan Lake, Home Block, the restaurant located inside Cedar Creek Estate Winery, serves a locally inspired menu alongside limited-edition wines. The menu is always changing, but past favorites include crispy artichokes with mushrooms or sockeye salmon with charred asparagus. In the summer, snag a seat on the amazing outdoor terrace.
This contemporary eatery at Quails' Gate Winery is open throughout the year, making it a good choice for off-season visits. When the weather is fine, you can dine on the patio overlooking the lake. Menu choices are a balance of seafood, meat and options for vegetarians, too. The staff is attentive and knowledgeable about wine pairings.
Rod Butters, one of BC's best-known chefs, created this contemporary eatery to deliver a culinarily interesting yet casual dining experience. The restaurant's interior is simple, with an open kitchen, a 21-foot communal table, and exposed brick and beams revealing the historic building's architectural roots. The kitchen emphasizes seasonal, locally sourced fare and is not afraid to offer cheeseburgers (topped with artisanal cheddar or blue) alongside more innovative dishes. Look for the carrot-poached lingcod or the braised bison brisket with Okanagan kimchi. If you're into desserts, the "liquid" variety are worth your consideration; a favorite is peach cobbler (bourbon, peaches and cream, and cinnamon). P.S.: The name is pronounced "Rod's."
When the sun cooperates, the skies here become a dazzling array of salmon, orange, pink, and turquoise as dusk approaches. The food is impressive enough, though, that you'll be lingering over every mouthful long after the sun goes down. In addition to salads and soups, there are expertly prepared dishes like strip loin served with garden salsa verde. There are also options for those who have vegan and gluten-free diets. Make sure to share a plate of artisanal cheeses and breads. Before dinner, try to schedule a tour of the winery's pyramid, fashioned after the one in Egypt.
With its panoramic views across the vineyards and the lake, this outdoor eatery at the Mission Hill Family Estate is a winner for alfresco dining for lunch and early dinners to catch the sunset. It's tough to compete with such a classic wine-country locale, but the innovative kitchen here is up to the task. You might start with a simple salad of perfectly ripe tomatoes and locally made feta cheese, or a tart of duck prosciutto, leeks, and potatoes before moving on to pan-seared sablefish paired with a pea puree, or braised venison with figs. Every item is matched with an appropriate wine. Stay a while to enjoy a tasting plate of cheeses or a decadent assortment of chocolate creations. If the weather's cool, there are heaters and blankets. If the weather's inclement, service stops.
The kind of laid-back place every neighborhood should have, this bistro and wine bar concentrates on small—and larger—plates paired with local wines. Appetizers range from wagyu tartare to grilled broccoli and broccolini salad. If you're in the mood for something heartier, you might try the duck breast with ricotta gnocchi or the tender flat iron steak.
