   Beyond words. Eat here every time we come up to Sparkling Hill. Service is top notch with knowledge of menu and wines, food is magnificent. Had the short rib for the table and 2018 estate Pinot noir. Best short rib I’ve ever had and that’s not a short list of comparison I’m making.

   Block One is the perfect place for an outstanding dinner. Service was excellent, with thoughtful and knowledgeable staff. The food was delicious - we shared a few happy hour appetizers before ordering main courses, and then dessert. We were very happy with all of our dishes. It’s upscale but not pretentious, and we’ll be back. The wine is fantastic and the suggested parings were great. Highly recommend.

   Amazing dining, affordable price-points, diversity on the menu. Pinots, Gris and Chards were incredible! We were dining in memory of a life recently lost to our family, and our hosts gave us a private table as requested and a completely unexpected complimentary glass of wine. Memorable, generous, high-quality food and service. And the drive from Kelowna along the lake was beautiful - very signature of BC Wine Country. We'll be back.

   Brought my father and his friends on a ski trip to enjoy an exquisite meal. Was so good we came back when my brother arrived a few days later. They couldn't stop talking about it on the hill the next day. Flavors are unreal and fantastic staff. Highly recommend.

    Yearly pilgrimage to Block One on our ski trip to Silverstar never disappoints. Best view over the vineyard down to the lake. Parker house rolls served with honey were fabulous. Service was charming and efficient. Mains and wine matches were terrific. My prawns were perfect!
