Restaurants near Curlew Lake State Park

The Velvet consistently is the best place to dine in the Rossland/Trail area when you want to have a special evening. The menu is updated seasonally, and there is sufficient variety for us to try different items every visit. Although, it's pretty hard NOT to order the sablefish every time. We try to stop in at least once a month and are always warmly greeted by the staff. Great location too, and the views up the ski hill are spectacular. Highly recommended.

Have eaten here a number of times in the past 5 years and they are certainly consistent. Good food and very good service. Menu items are creative but not over the top, and portions are generous. In winter it is a small space as the majority of their seating is on a huge patio which is obviously weather dependent. Many reviewers have mentioned pricing to which I would say this: first it's consistent with any resort hotel with the associated costs and obligations of operating in one. Second, there are perhaps four restaurants in Osoyoos that could be classified as fine dining and the Bear's pricing is fairly comparable. However, unlike two others the Bear is open every day, year round. BTW I don't work for the hotel - I just wanted to defend a favorite spot that I believe gets some unfair criticism!

Delicious and great service! Recommend to anyone in town.

enjoyable experience; dine here often and always good

Was one of the best meals I've had in a very long time. Food and server were 5 star in my books.
