Okanagan Wine Country Restaurants

Like the California wine regions, Okanagan has attracted gourmands, and the restaurants reflect that. They also benefit from the amazing fruit harvest here. From summer to fall, every month reaps a harvest of different fruits, from cherries and plums to nectarines, peaches, and several varieties of apples.

  • 5. RauDZ Regional Table

    $$$

    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."

  • 6. Summerhill Sunset Organic Bistro

    $$$

    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.

    • Organic fare sourced straight from their garden

  • 7. The Terrace at Mission Hill

    $$$

    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.
