They consisted of only raw broccoli, raw zucchini, raw apples, olives, mushrooms, and some inedible bread. I won’t be going back!

We started by ordering some wine, but unfortunately, they only had two bottles available that were chilled. When we got there, we were the only table in the restaurant. We ordered olives, hummus, a cheese plate, and two salads. It took 25 minutes for the olives to arrive, an hour for the hummus, and an astonishing 2.5 hours for the cheese plate. Shockingly, our salads never arrived at all. While we received a few excuses, we did not get an apology. I was able to pay with a credit card, but the others who tried to pay with debit faced significant issues.

However, it's somewhat rare for a downtown spot to have such a fee. I think that better advertising could have drawn in a larger audience, as Kelowna could definitely use more effective promotion for important events. Overall, it was an intriguing experience, but I can't see myself returning anytime soon.

I had the opportunity to sample both local and imported wines, and I was impressed by the quality of many local wines from the Okanagan Valley—they can truly stand alongside the best in the world. They are absolutely delicious. Cheers!
