Restaurant recs for Niagara-on-the-Lake

Please share your restaurant recommendations for wedding anniversary dinner in Niagara-on-the-Lake, ON. High-end, white tablecloth, price not an issue. Bonus for high-floor and/or rooftop views of the lake.

Best answer: Your best bet IMO is the Niagara-on-the-Lake Golf Club, the restaurant is excellent and it's got a great view of the lake and Fort Niagara on the American side. It would be perfect for a wedding anniversary dinner but it's open seasonally - so may not work depending on when you plan to be there.

Another option in NOTL is The Pillar and Post. It's primarily a hotel but has a great restaurant attached to it. I've had anniversary dinners of my own there.

I haven't been there since I was a teenager, but I remember The Prince of Wales Hotel also having some fine dining options.

Neither the Pillar and Post or the Prince of Wales have lake views, unfortunately.

Happy anniversary, NOTL is a great place to go.

Response by poster: Ah, yes. The green does it again.

I’ve never actually been, but for high end in NOTL, definitely Prince of Wales Hotel. That’s the go-to.

The Oban hotel is beautiful as well. A family member was married there, gorgeous hotel and delightful dinner in a splendid setting.

It's been a few years for me, but Peller Estates had a very elegant restaurant. No view of the lake, but high style service. And a pretty good winery too.

Many years ago I had a marriage luncheon at Peller Estates Winery And Restaurant. It is not in Niagara-on-the-lake proper, a little out of town, no view of the lake but a patio with views of the vineyards. Lovely food and service and lovely wine you won't find at home.
