I went here for the first time with a group a friends the other night. It was a really refreshing experience. The food was beautifully presented and tasted great. Perfect share plates for the table. We were able to try lots of the seasonal dishes. The server/owner had lots of insight about their wine selections and great recommendations. Overall I had a wonderful time here and will be coming back. This is a very small restaurant with minimal seating so make sure to make a reservation.

The perfect little place for a date, or intimate dinner with a loved one. Stuffed with regulars who come for the cozy atmosphere and wonderful wine list. Rita and Jason are great hosts and always make you feel right at home. Get Rita to pick you something delicious from her (mostly Italian) wine cellar for a special treat.

Although this restaurant is a little out of downtown Kelowna, it is a must try! The food is very well thought out and the result is amazing. I had the pleasure to try the asparagus and burrata, which were seasonal, and I was not disappointed. The sweet potato gnocchi also was a very flavorful dish, and very well balanced. The wine menu is fantastic and by the glass wines are very diversified. You shall find something you like for sure! And the service was just perfect. So nice in every way. She really enriched my experience! I highly recommend if you're in Kelowna. Totally worth the 40 min walk or 10 min drive from downtown.

It was such a beautiful dinner we had during our travel to Kelowna. All the food with fresh ingredients was scrumptious and recommended wines from Rita were perfect pairing. We would love to visit again for sure.

I love this gem of a tapas wine bar. Hubby and I try to visit here whenever we travel through Kelowna. It's a small restaurant dedicated to healthier options for food. Food is locally sourced, and I can not stress enough how good our food was. The wines are tremendous, there are many local options and a couple of european choices. Reservations are required, but Rita may bend the rules if you happen to stumble upon this gem tucked into a small corner of a strip mall. The menu changes all the time because it's based on what's available. We've never been disappointed. Our bill was higher because we had 4 dishes and 4 wines each. We always splurge when coming to Tutt Street because we're never exactly sure when we'll be able to get back.

We came here because of the great reviews and were not disappointed. We tried the bruschetta - delicious. Prosciutto flatbread - delicious. Gnocchi with tomato and Basil - delicious. Prawn pasta - delicious. Cauliflower dream - pretty good. It’s a very small place so make sure you book in advance.

Our new favourite spot in town! We’re big food and wine people, but usually going out in Kelowna is a disappointing experience and we leave feeling like we overpaid for mediocre food, but this place did not disappoint! Everything was delicious. They clearly know their wines and provided better quality options than most restaurants in Kelowna. The food was amazing, too. Great combinations of flavours, perfect seasoning, all balanced really well. You can taste each ingredient, nothing was greasy or overdone. You can tell they really care about the food they serve. The house made gnocchi was to die for - light and fluffy so it just melted in your mouth. The pappardelle with shrimp was perfectly cooked, a tad peppery but honestly that’s such a small detail. Would order again for sure. Our favourite item was the seafood cakes. The flavour and texture was outstanding. Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside with nicely chopped pieces of scallop and prawn that you could get a good bite of. 10/10. I’ve never wanted to send my compliments to the chef before, but whoever’s back there really knows what they’re doing! Rita was lovely, we felt welcomed from the moment we came in and the atmosphere was relaxing and friendly. Several other tables were regulars and the owners chatted with them like old friends. Everything was reasonably priced and it’s the first time eating out in Kelowna where we felt like we got the value we were looking for. Cannot wait to be back, this will be our go-to spot from now on!!

The restaurant was lovely and chill, and we have a great dine out here. Seafood cake is a must try, the sauce tasted unique. We can tell how fresh the ingredients were, especially the heirloom tomatoes. Will absolutely come again!
