About the restaurant

If the valley prospers, we prosper. Everything you see on the terrace menu is homemade, grown in the estate's garden or produced locally with our agricultural partners. Chef Patrick's philosophy is that if it grows together, it goes together, which is why we offer wines from the same region to accompany your meal.

About the restaurant

Experience everyday exquisite at Diva, a gathering place for playful palates to connect over honest food and drink from around the world. With other three decades of practice service Vancouver locals and globetrotters alike, we know a thing or two about being a good host. But like any true Diva, we’re never quite satisfied. We’re innovation obsessed, constantly finding ways to challenge the status quo in the kitchen and behind the bar.

Our cuisine invites you to rediscover international favourites while biting into the bounty of British Columbia. Quench your curiosity with inventive cocktails, or keep it simple with local brews and BC wines.

Our dishes are designed to tell stories, spark conversations, and create common ground between friends old and new. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion, or casually dropping by, you’re among friends at Diva.

I initially saw the post about the Christmas lunch buffet on Instagram. I figured it would be a wonderful experience for my parents. The buffet was great with a huge variety. All of the staff were so courteous and helpful. I believe our server's name was Dwayne, super nice and helpful. Thankyou so much! It was a very festive and yummy lunch buffet.

Lovely evening at Hillside Bistro. Thanksgiving dinner for two was delicious and inventive with just enough of the traditional flavours. Wine parings were excellent. Originally reserved a spot inside but decided on the patio instead and the change was made cheerfully by Sarah who also provided attentive service for the rest of the evening. I make it a point to visit when we are in Penticton and I have never been disappointed. Thank you

We were seated for dinner in the Sunset Café area, which turned out to be quieter than the main dining room. The server was very friendly and attentive. It's a beautiful location, and the food was wonderful.
