We were visting our married son in B.C. and were eager to be shown around the Okanagan area, where they were staying for the summer. The day after we arrived we went on a few wine tours and we made dinner reservations at the Hillside Estate Winery on my son's recommendation. Our meals were excellently paired with the Estate wines.... More

The wines are great but we decided to have dinner in the Bistro and were given a second floor table with a beautiful view. Excellent service and food! One of the first wineries on the Bench and definitely worth a visit for a tasting, lunch or dinner!

My friend and I visited Hillside Estate Bistro for lunch on a trip to the Okanagan to visit wineries. The Bistro was recommended for lunch, so we made our way from Osoyoos to Penticton for a bite.

After a 15 minute wait, one and one quarter cups arrived with a promise that the shortfall would appear in 5 minutes or so, as soon a fresh batch was made.... More

Everything we ate at this restaurant was great! The duck sandwich, pork cheeks and soup had a wonderful combinations of flavors. Those delicious items combined with great wine and an unbeatable sunset and it makes for one stunning evening.

Spectacular view of the lake from the upstairs patio at sunset. In L.A., a restaurant like this would be noisy and crowded, not the case... More
