Premièrement, la vue est exceptionnelle ! Le restaurant est placé de manière à ce que les clients mangent avec vue sur le lac et les montagnes !

Deuxièmement, le service est impeccable, de l'accueil à la présentation jusqu'au moment de quitter le restaurant. La personne qui me servait avait une grande connaissance du menu et des vins qui l'accompagnaient. Très satisfait. J'ai passé une magnifique soirée. Merci Crystal !

En ce qui concerne la nourriture, tout d'abord, c'est un restaurant offrant des menus de 2, 3 ou 5 services avec des accords mets-vins. L'accord peut être modifié selon les goûts du client.

La présentation de la nourriture est plutôt rustique tout en ayant des touches sophistiquées.

Je recommande ce restaurant sans hésitation et je dirais même que c'est un endroit à ne pas manquer lors d'une visite à Kelowna. J'y retournerai sans hésiter.

Cuisine raffinée et excellente. Cadre moderne avec grande terrasse et vue magnifique sur le lac et les montagnes. Très bon vin du domaine. Et même quelques choix d'autres vins de la région.

Dinner with a panoramic view of West Kelowna. Words or photos would not do justice to the ambiance and view that this place encapsulates.

Home Block has a rotating set menu concept, which I love as it takes a load off of deciding what to order. With 3 to our party we were able to enjoy a bit of everything. The food was fresh and not overly seasoned. Steak was tender and the accompaniments were paired perfectly.

My favourites of the night though would have to be the Sticky Toffee Pudding and the Jelly Custard desserts. The cake was bathing in a caramel bath and the Jelly Custard was refreshingly good which is not what we were expecting!

Highly recommend this place for an elevated evening out and try to book during sunset, you won’t regret it:)

We really enjoyed the wine pairing experience, the food was amazing and the wine enhanced the flavor, they really know about their food and wine that’s why they make your experience better. We had the lunch two courses meal , beautiful, made with heart and unique, and worth to mention is the portion is good we are full with the 2 course. I really liked their Riesling wine , worth the price! And the design of the restaurant makes you feel high end but cozy . Overall I will recommend this restaurant!

Awesome experience at Home Block restaurants! We hat the five course menu and one of the best meals in a very long time. Combined with some very special wines it made a perfect experience in an amazing scenery. We hat a table in the first row on the terrace and could enjoy an outstanding view to the lake over the vineyards of the Cedar Creek winery.
Highly recommend. Don’t miss the chance to stop if you’re in the area!
And it started already before getting there. We’ve been asked if there were any dietary specifics they would need to consider for the menu. Very attentive and made alle the way throughout the evening!

Avoid if you’re a tourist.
My fiancé and I visited the restaurant to celebrate our engagement while visiting Canada. In our online booking we requested that we have a have a window table with a view. When we arrived, there were 2 tables available by the window. We asked the host if we could have one of these tables. The host said that the tables were already reserved and that we had to sit inside. I replied that in our online reservation, that a view was requested. The host said she was sorry but customers were not able to book specific tables. This second statement was confusing and frustrating as ‘not being able to reserve specific tables’ was in direct conflict with her original statement of ‘sorry, the table is already reserved’. I stated this contradiction and the host was either oblivious or obstinate.
We were seated inside (with no view) and the 2 other tables remained empty for at least another 15 minutes. Clearly, there is a preferential system where tables can be booked, but this option was not granted to us.
The food would be a solid 7/10 but not worth the price without the view. Anyone else visiting the restaurant hoping to get a window seat should not bother attending.

In summary,

Pros:
Food is decent (7/10)
1 of 3 wines we tried were good.
Scenery on the drive to the restaurant was nice.
Offered a complimentary glass of mediocre wine after giving us rubbish seats facing the kitchen.

Cons:
Overpriced.
Difficult to get a decent seat.
Staff make weird conflicting statements to prevent non-regulars from getting good seats.

Honestly, lucky to get 2/5 stars.
