BLOCK ONE Restaurant at 50th Parallel Winery

The food took a long time to come out but was delicious

Always great food, best crab cake around

Good atmosphere. Food was excellent. Server was beyond helpful and friendly

Celebrating our 41st anniversary here for the afternoon with a gorgeous charcuterie platter and delicious crab cakes. We especially enjoyed a glass of their Ehrenfelser bubbles...Glamour Farming. Truly delightful! Our meal was enjoyed with a bottle of their 2019 Estate Pinot Noir Rose, which we missed out on last year because it sold out.
Our server Belinda, was knowledgeable, gave us our space and super friendly.

Beautiful restaurant and winery overlooking Okanagan lake. Great atmosphere, amazing food, service was a little delayed due to the dinner rush but our server was great! Highly recommend and the banana chocolate desert was incredible!

Great experience at BLOC ONE! We had dinner there while on our honeymoon and it was amazing! Service was professional and attentive. Food was delicious as well.

My husband and I went for our anniversary. I feel like when you go on a Monday to an expensive restaurant someone should ask if its for a special occasion (just a suggestion) to add to the experience. The food was very good, but overall pretty expensive for the overall experience. The food took forever to arrive like (1.5 hours in) and then near the end we were going to ask for an other glass of wine but after dropping the wine list no one returned for 20 minutes. We did not feel "taken care of" would be the simplest way to say it.

Food and service were fantastic, and the view made the evening perfect.

Mark made our night! Thank you!

Absolutely amazing experience. Wine tasting, food quality and service was excellent

Best vineyard to eat at in Lake Country. The food is incredible, we've tried most things on the menu and have yet to dislike something. Some noteworthy things are the pizzas, chicken sandwich, broccolini, and crab cakes. Only reason the ambience gets a 4/5 is because you can't always get a patio table and the indoor area is a bit lackluster.

The food was good but the service lacked a bit. We came from Kelowna, it's too far for what you get both on term of food/ambiance and service. There are other wineries with better food, service and views in Kelowna and lake Country

Lamb was overcooked but restaurant replaced and cut 50% off bill so it was wonderful

Good food, good wine, good service but eating indoors is so noisy, spoiled the dinner for my husband. Won’t go again unless guaranteed we can eat on the patio.

We had an incredible experience here. The staff we’re very accomplishing For our family’s needs to accommodate a larger group. They went out of their way to ensure everyone’s safety during the COVID restrictions. Staff is super friendly. Definitely worth a stop for a sup on the patio and some delicious food

Delicious meal and great service.

Best in the valley

Block One is our favourite dining experience in the Okanagan. The food created by Chef Kai is second to none and the team ensures that the experience is tailored to your specific needs. Mike has served us numerous times and we appreciate his attentiveness and 'clairvoyance' to read the table and know when it is a good time to step in. Highly recommend 5OTH and Block One.

We choose to come here to celebrate our 45th wedding anniversary. It was the right choice for a special moment.

Fantastic!

Excellent food and service. A little pricey but great for special occasions.

This was our first dinner out since March. We, along with our daughter and her boyfriend were visiting my father in law. They had never been to Block 1. We were very pleased with what measures have been put in place as a result of COVID 19 and would not hesitate to visit again. Service, food and wine - all top notch. Music was a bit loud for my father in law who is hard of hearing but he managed. We can’t wait to return!

Block One is very much about "being seen". Usually the "be seen" type of restaurant or lounge would be a place that I wouldn't return to. For Block One though, the food and excellent service made up for the tables full of people who either were or, were trying to be the uber nouveau trendy. Young men and women who naturally pulled off the aforementioned and the older folks, who were trying. Great place to people watch!! Now to the service and food. In a word, excellent!!!!!! Our server was perfectly attentive and did not smother us. The food, a pizza and charcuterie tray, were wonderful. Of course a lovely bottle of wine shared, topped it all off. I will go back for a lunch. A nice afternoon.

The wine is delicious! The food tasted great. Loved the service & the vibe of the restaurant. We will definitely be coming back.

Lovely spot! Service is amazing, Alex definitely can read her guests and make them feel totally welcome

Our server was very engaging and he didn’t miss a beat! I’m confident anything and everything you try from block one will be delicious but I highly recommend the halibut! Will definitely be coming back soon. :)

Our food was relatively good but my steak was way overcooked I should have sent it back !! I asked for medium it same well done with burnt asparagus ! I think the wine is a little pricey especially for being The restaurant at the winery

Great location and the views are second to none. We will be back!

The food was expensive but mediocre and arrived a little late. However, the staff was very friendly, the ambiance was AMAZING, and the wine was great!

Block One never ceases to impress. Stunning atmosphere, professional knowledgeable staff and food that is local, beautifully created and tastes out of this world. We've been coming to Block One since it opened and season over season they continue to strive to ensure excellence is reached at every step. Kara, their director of food and beverage is everywhere and doesn't miss a thing. If you are fortunate enough to have Mike as your server, you are in good hands.

Very well done! Service Was spot on food was absolutely cooked to perfection and we enjoyed our time.

Went for lunch. Food was amazing! Covid controls were good. Felt very comfortable. Had 2 babies with us and restaurant was very accommodating.

So proud to bring my brother and his wife to Block One. Delicious, friendly, wonderful experience, the view was exceptional. Thanks so much for a reliable top quality meal. We’ll be back.

The lunch menu was fantastic. Your Cache Creek Beef Tartare was one of the best we have had, as was the Seared Albacore Tuna "Nicoise". Compliments to the chef!

We went to Block One to celebrate my wife's birthday. The complimentary sparkling wine was a nice gesture. The staff were very accommodating and cheerful. The food was nicely presented and very tasty. Despite the COVID pandemic rules, it has always been one of our favorite places to dine.
Always nice to see the owners making an appearance amongst the guests.

Lovely service, beautiful setting and delicious food!

Ignite your tastebuds, and enjoy the endless Okanagan lake views. Try 50 th Parallel and you won’t be disappointed. Kudos to chef Kai, our party of 6, each and everyone loved their appetizers and dinner! BRAVO 👏

Wow, what a lovely restaurant with amazing vineyard views. The staff are professional and the wines are exquisite. The best Halibut and beef tartar I've ever had.

Not sure if my previous email went through. I want this to be confidential with no names posted.

At times we felt uncomfortable as the servers did not wear masks and came too close. Our server when presenting me with the invoice was far too close. Physical distancing was not practiced.

The good food was overshadowed by the lack of following protocols as outlined by the province.

Recommend -- not at this time unless you improve.

Was a nice experience, however the pizza was cold
