Feedback
This restaurant in the Naramata/Penticton area is a charming spot for dining. The atmosphere is trendy and the food is innovative and high quality. However, there are limited options for vegetarians and vegans, and the waitress informed me that the kitchen does not accommodate substitutions or modifications, aside from omitting ingredients from a mixed salad. Additionally, the restaurant follows a small plates concept, so it may be challenging to have a well-rounded meal with a variety of vegetables. It is recommended to visit for appetizers to enjoy with their wine and have dinner elsewhere.
Highly recommend this place! My boyfriend and I dropped in on our way through Penticton and were pleasantly surprised that there were a few vegan options. I highly recommend the lentil croquettes if you’re looking for a delicious lunch/light dinner!!
Despite the lack of gluten-free labeling on the menu, I was able to find safe options after speaking with the server who was knowledgeable and checked with the kitchen for confirmation. We enjoyed tacos, scallops, pork belly, and crème brûlée, all of which were incredibly tasty. The ambiance and view of the restaurant were exceptional.
We had a great experience with the tasting menu at this restaurant. The chef made sure to personally serve and explain each course to us, which was wonderful. They were also very accommodating to our celiac/gluten-free dietary needs.
I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant! The food was incredibly delicious, the staff was very well-informed about the menu, and most options are gluten-free or can be made gluten-free. The outdoor patio and scenery are stunning, and I highly recommend making a reservation ahead of time.
