Pricey but good.

Jul 2023 • family

We visited the winery as it came with a recommendation. Beautiful ience and wanted to support the local winery and farm to table concept for a meal. What we were surprised the price of a bottle of wine. In the tasting room a few feet away the bottle costs $26 but they charge you $41 when you order it with your meal. The meal portions and presentation are Parisienne, if you know what I mean. Very well presented, but small portions. The wine tasting is free if you are having a meal. The wines are quite pricey too when compared to other wineries in Summerland. Worth the drive. Gorgeous views on the patio to have a meal.

Once you overcome the barriers.... good.

Jul 2021 • none

I understand the issue of having so many people drop in these days - the Naramata Bench is incredibly popular and busy with tourists - but the barriers here seem excessive. Required pre-ordering of your food as part of a reservation... meaning that if you invite someone to lunch you need them to tell you what they want before you book. For us... we dropped in, no reservation. Told by the surly hostess that we needed a reservation and there was no room. We stepped 20 feet away and made a reservation for 5 minutes from then and walked back to her. Fine. Seated. Food and wine and ambiance really nice, once you get in there. Yes, they drill your wallet hard, but hey, that's expected at a nice winery like this. Overall, despite the inconvenience, I'd consider going back. It was a nice patio for a really good lunch, in the end.

A Tasty Lunch with Friends and Family

Aug 2020 • none

As requested, we arrived a short time prior to our reservations and we're seated almost immediately. We had a marvellous view of Lake Okanagan as well as the surrounding area. Our table for four was shaded by a large umbrella. The table had an extension where all food and drinks were deposited by the staff. This covid precaution and other protocols were explained by our server. Water was served in cold, capped bottles. Our prepaid orders were reviewed and verified. We ordered a bottle of wine to accompany our meals. Our selected appetizers were served and enjoyed by all. I found the Farmstead Vegetable Brushetta very tasty. I enjoyed my shrimp salad while the others in our party liked their scallops. We decided to have dessert. I ordered and enjoyed a decadent one called "Chocolate, Chocolate". On the way back to our car, I noticed the pavement markings that clearly showed where to go and where to stand whIle waiting to be seated as well as returning to your vehicle in a safe manner.

Over priced for tiny portions.

May 2024 • couples

Staff was great. Wine was good. Location was wonderful. Food was tasty. So why 2 stars? Ridiculously small portions for the price. Honestly, at least throw in some yummy crusty bread if your portions are going to be that stingy or price it accordingly.

Portions Extremely Tiny Very Expensive

May 2024 • friends

Three for lunch. Honestly it was the smallest amount of food I have ever been served. $24 for halibut cheeks. I am not kidding., the meal was four bites of food. The server prior to ordering stated the portions were small and suggested we order 2 meals each. What ?????!!!!!! The tuna and prosciutto were equally tiny. The wine and setting were wonderful. We will not be back

Minuscule portions and a stingy attitude.

May 2024 • couples

The patio is beautiful with great views but the food experience was disappointing! It seems this restaurant has become too precious and self-important. Being warned in advance about how small the portions are does nothing to ameliorate the shock when they actually arrive. Three (full priced) meals not really enough for two. Asked for a few additional crisps to complement the tuna tartare. Was told the kitchen does not really like/allow that! We will have to find another winery for lunch next time. Fortunately plenty to choose from.

Reservation Policy

Aug 2021 • family

Very disappointing experience. Booked a wine tasting for 4 people at 4:15 and arrived 10 minutes late (the usual grace period for any restaurant) and was told our reservation was given to another group. One of the workers told us there is only a 10 minute grace period, an though we were within it, failed to own up to the fact that they had given our reservation away to another group, but they had mistaken them for us meaning we actually paid for their tasting. Staff were very rude, I would not recommend.

Lunch at Lake Breeze Winery

Jul 2023 • family

Excellent fresh food, superb service and friendly atmosphere. Menu was assisted by suggested wines. Great views of the picturesque valley. Reasonably priced food. Spent the morning visiting local wineries, finishing off here for lunch. Made for a decent family outing

Unfortunately Dogs Allowed

Jul 2023 • couples

We dined here on the patio last summer and had a wonderful experience. This time not so much. One thing the restaurant fails to do is state they are dog friendly. Even though I like dogs, I don't think they belong in a restaurant setting, let alone what most people would call fine dining (based on the prices). First thing we noticed was the smell of wet dog. There was one at the table directly behind me. Then we heard another bark, and another. There were 4 customers with dogs! To my utter horror, one of them chose a tree only 4 feet from us to urinate. In addition to that, there was occasional barking between dogs and a very fluffy tail flapping against my arm. When we mentioned all of this to the server, she nonchalantly said "well, this IS a farmstead!". I am sorry but if I am going to pay $30-40 per dish, I don't want to be having to watch a dog reliving itself! Moreover, dogs are full of fur and can carry fleas and ticks - this is unsanitary and should not be allowed in an eating establishment. It is unfortunate they allow dogs as it is a beautiful, serene setting but the public has a right to know in case they don't like dogs, are afraid of them or simply agree with me that they do not belong in restaurants.

Lunch on Patio at Lake Breeze was Fabulous!

Jun 2022 • couples

We had an excellent lunch on the patio. We ordered Capellini with Prawns and the Cornish Game Hen with Risotto. Both these dishes were delicious but the Risotto with preserved lemon was exceptional. And then we ordered dessert: chocolate ganache and a strawberry tart which both surpassed all expectations. We had the Lake Breeze Sauvignon Blanc to accompany this very memorable lunch. We will be back!!

Lunch at Lake Breeze

Jul 2020 • couples

My wife and I just had lunch at Lake Breeze. We reserved on their website, and following their instructions ordered online and paid the night before, which was a first for us. It certainly made it easy and cut down on the interaction required, but diminishes a bit of the spontaneity. It appeared that others were viewing the menu on their phones and then ordering, so perhaps our procedure wasn’t the only way. The menu also seems a bit reduced. For first course I had the onion soup, while my wife really enjoyed her beet salad with goat cheese. We each had the pork as our main which was notable for the sauce and fresh tasty vegetables. The two courses were the right amount, we were satisfied without being too full. The service was fine. They placed the dishes on the extra table and we served ourselves. The patio is perfect for COVID dining, not crowded and airy, with a nice view to the lake. On a nice summer’s day, it’s a very pleasant place to be.

Lunch in the Okanagon

Jul 2022 • couples

We visited Lake Breeze Restaurant again this summer on more than one occasion. As always the view is spectacular with the setting of the restaurant over the vineyards and the Okanagon Lake. I booked on OpenTable as usual and even asked for a table nearest to the vineyards. Even though they confirmed on OpenTable, the servers were below par in not seating us accordingly. They have an extensive gluten-free menu which my wife really love. Will most like be back and hoping servers will be more attentive.

The name of this place is well deserved!

Jun 2022 • couples

On a bike ride, we decided to grab a late lunch at Lake Breeze. What started out as a nice sunny calm meal, changed to windy and freezing. In spite of the generous offer of blankets, our umbrella was blowing away along with our food, so we had to cut things short. As for food, the limited menu was pretty average and a bit overpriced.

Used to be inviting

Jul 2022 • couples

No reservations, asked for a table for two (another group in front of us did also) and we were turned away. They said they were fully booked but half the tables were empty. We stayed for an 30 minute long wine tasting and walked around for a while afterwards and the tables did not fill up. No problem. Went to another winery up the road who were actually busy but still found a way to accommodate us.

Lovely lunch

Jul 2021 • none

We pre-booked our lunch which was a great experience. Our server was knowledgeable and very good at her job. The venue is absolutely gorgeous and it was a special treat for us. I definitely recommend going here for a meal as the food was phenomenal in a gorgeous setting.
