    My friend and I enjoyed our dining experience very very much at the Grapevine. I didn’t know a steak or a short rib could be so tender, or Swiss cheese so creamy! The staff made me feel spoiled, treated my birthday like a really big deal. Highly recommend this restaurant to everyone... casual, family, friends, special occasion, romantic dinner… This is the place!

    I unfortunately can’t remember the waitress’s name (blond short hair) but she made the experience truly AMAZING! She was friendly, knew everything about the menu, and even provided me with gluten-free crackers as appetizer so I wouldn’t feel left out. I can’t thank her enough for making my boyfriend’s birthday great!

    The restaurant and winery are set above Lake Okanagan and the views of the lake and vineyards was excellent. The menu is creative and everyone in our 4 person group enjoyed our meals. We were there on a quiet Monday evening. This is a positive statement - be prepared for a relaxed experience.

    Food was excellent and service was outstanding. Food is expensive but priced similar to the rest of the wineries in the area. The restaurant does not welcome kids and has rules posted for them on entry. So if you want to take your family, even a baby I don’t recommend it.

    We went there for anniversary dinner with a group of 7, and although I wanted to love it, the room needs a ton of upgrading and the food mediocre and cold. It is probably beautiful if you are on the patio, but in inclement or cooler weather, it was really a disappointing setting for dinner - no ambiance of any kind and a cold tile floor and wide open room with no character. The food was all barely warm after we waited an hour for it, even thought we were the only ones being served at that time in the evening. I won't likely return.

    We love going to the grapevine for lunch. It was my birthday and they brought out a special creme brûlée. Perfect. We used to especially love the braised beef but it hasn’t been on the menu for a couple of years. Wish they’d bring it back. It was the best thing on the menu. We sat outside and although there was some hazy smoke it was delightful I recommend the Grapevine. And our server Treena was attentive and helpful. So special 😎♥️👍🏼

    Great food and service, but the ambience needs major improvement. The combination of fluorescent lighting and incandescent lighting is not a good idea, and also the environment was too bright. Tables should be consistent (there was a mix of indoor and outdoor furniture), and candles and table cloths should be added to create a better vibe, worthy of an upscale place like this.

    On a smoky Okanagan day, we ventured out to Gray Monk for a dinner with the family and a great view. While the family came, the view didn’t as the forest fire smoke obscured the lake view and closed the patio. While that was our first disappointment, unfortunately it wasn’t our last. The food was way too messed up to be even coherent. It was almost as if the chef was trying too hard to be unique. A mishmash of flavours might sound interesting on paper, but on the palette, not so much. Maybe an over-abundance of ingredients was why the food was expensive. It was clear I wasn’t enjoying my meal, given that I wasn’t eating it, but our server didn’t notice as she was hardly ever around. Finally, while the rest of my party was pretty much finished, she thought it would be a good idea to acknowledge my full plate and ask me if I wanted a substitute. A bit too late when everyone else was done. And I was charged for the meal to add a little bit of salt into the wound. For the rest of the party, the comments were “meh” at best. In particular, the seafood pasta was a disappointment. Curry spices too strong for delicate seafood, and a definite lack of seafood for the price. My salad on the other hand was a disaster. Yes, a bad salad. I think that’s hard to do, but Gray Monk found a way. In any event, if you want a great setting (truly beautiful) paired with ok wine (nicely priced) and really unexceptional food that is over priced, this is your place. I’d recommend it for the setting, but that’s about it.

    The food was outstanding. Our very knowledgable server detailed the finer points of the variou dishes and waited patiently for us to make decisions. Service was prompt and unobtrusive. It was an excellent birthday treat for a friend despite the heavy smoke cover which prevented outdoor dining and enjoyment of the normally fantastic view.
