I had an amazing lunch at the Terrace Restaurant of Mission Hill Winery. The location of the restaurant is spectacular because diners can look to the beautiful Okanagan Lake and vineyards while dining fine quality food. When I arrived with my family, we were immediately seated and our server was friendly and efficient. The menu suggested two wine pairings for each dish. Kudos to the sommelier for giving diners options! Of course all the wines were from Mission Hill.
My brother was the only one who ordered a starter. His tomato gazpacho soup with fresh crabmeat on the side was tasty. The colour of the soup was bright with hints of olive oil on the top. My parents and I couldn't help but "sampled" the delightful soup. We liked the freshness, sweetness and tartness of the tomatoes. It wetted our appetites!!
I ordered the hemp seed crusted chevre with raisins, quinoa and flax seeds. The colours of the food on the dish were very vibrant and inviting eventhough my brother called it "bird feed food". While I was eating it, I wasn't thinking about meat at all. It looked good and seemed quite healthy.
My brother had the roasted free range chicken breast with ricotta ravioli. The chicken was cooked perfectly so it was moist and tender. He devoured the dish in no time.
Prices of the food were Vancouver prices but with bigger portions and get better "deals" with the wine. A good place to splurge for an amazing meal while visiting the Okanagan. -

The Terrace Restaurant at Mission Hill winery was the most perfect meal we enjoyed in the Okanagan. The service and scenery were outstanding, it was still the food that stood out, as it should, just as the gorgeous architecture of the winery stands out atop its lofty location. The food is not just good-for-the-Okanagan; it's downright awesome.
If you only have time for one winery meal, this should be it, either on your way into or out of the Okanagan valley if you're coming from Vancouver. The only tricky part is that its hours are temperamental, or contingent upon the weather, since the restaurant is literally an outdoor terrace. Usually it's open only during the middle of the day. Call ahead and make a reservation.
