The Restaurant at Poplar Grove

We have been coming here everytime we visit from Alberta (even the early days of the vanilla pod) and I can say hands down it is my favourite restaurant. The food is always outstanding and the service is the best you will find without feeling pretentious. My husband is a pilot and we often talk about skipping over the mountains just for a lunch here. Don't hesitate and book that reservation!

One of the original 5 wineries on the Naramata Bench Poplar Grove Winery was founded in 1993. In 2007 Tony and Barb Holler purchased it and turned it into a whole family affair! Their sons Chris, Andrew, Matt and Eric manage the 150 acres cleverly placed in some of the finest Okanagan terroirs and award winning winemaker Stefan Arnason gracefully focuses on Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Syrah and a signature Bordeaux blend The Legacy. To pair, Chef Stacy Johnston (SAIT, 641 Grill, Wascana Country Club and Naramata Inn) along with Minette Lotz (The Art Institute, Wascana Country Club, Naramata Inn) deliver a seasonal, locally sourced fine dining experience set in an intimate yet cosmopolitan showroom overlooking Lake Okanagan. It’s completely Naramata Inn redux with slight unbridled energy- The Restaurant at Poplar Grove gorgeous and remaining a TOP 5 valley dining experience! ***MUST VISIT!*** Elegant rendezvous to impress friends, a wonderfully romantic escape in wine country or perfect place for foodies. Highlights: having Minette visit and see her super passionate about her new creations, Jared’s soon-to-be on the menu Lamb belly, gracious former Hawksworth super host Michael Ziff and such lovely and impeccable service from Taunya! 🏆🍷🥂❤️🍇

I had lunch here with my mom. From start to finish, the service we received was exceptional. She was very attentive and on pointe with timing, recommendations, and pairings. The patio has a beautiful view. The food was phenomenal, we shared the burrata salad, I had the salmon and my mom had the mushroom pasta. 👌👌

We brought American friends here and had a fabulous dinner. Our server, Spencer, was pitch perfect and made our evening so enjoyable. This restaurant is in a spectacular setting. We’ve been a couple of times before for lunch but watching the sunset over dinner is pretty special.

A must stop place for dinner in the region. The food is incredible, I really appreciated that their menu had such diverse options and creative options. I didn’t feel like I was having a basic chicken or beef dish with some wine. The snack options are the perfect bites to start the evening - highly recommend the crispy prawn toast. Between the snacks and small plates you have so many options before even getting to your main. And the wine at Poplar is so lovely. It’s one of the most beautiful restaurants I’ve dined at. The views are incredible. The service was impeccable. Very attentive. And to wrap up the night - get their ice cream sandwich. Great place to stop in, enjoy great food and wine and a beautiful picturesque location.

Breath taking view, incredible food, great staff, what more could you want? Such an ideal place and overall amazing experience! Thanks for knocking out of the park Poplar Grove!

Best dinner I've ever had! The food was delicious with it's amazing flavors that paired with one another (and the wine!) in harmonious ways. Our waiter Spencer was friendly, knowledgeable, and personable as he pair a smooth Chardonnay with my savory roasted chicken with morel mushroom sauce. The chefs here have created a sensational menu and after tonight, I cannot recommend the Warm "Hollar Honey" Buns enough!! I would highly recommend for a memorable time out!

Gorgeous location! The terrace with the lake view is fantastic. The food was good, the quality was great but I didn't find it particularly special for that level of price.
