Reviews of BRODO Kitchen (Catering)

BC Valley Guy

Great Food! Friendly people! Take out window works well. Soups are really excellent. We enjoyed their sandwiches today!! Yum! Phoning order ahead worked well.

J B

Great quick hot food with a smile.

Kwokman Ng

I have soup, salad and a sandwich for lunch. Everything was good, especially the salad. I will go back there for lunch if I go to Penticton again.

Victor Chang

The food here is excellent. Beyond what you would expect out of a small sandwich shop. The chef here has some serious cooking talent and should really get some financing to open a full scale restaurant because you are definitely good enough to cut it, even in Vancouver. I have rarely tasted sandwiches that good.

John Masigan

Came here yesterday, we were looking for something unique and as we walked down main st downtown Penticton, we saw the restaurant. We yelped it to see if it is worth the visit. So we turned around and headed to that direction. First thing you notice is the entrance. Very raw, is what i can describe it. Ambiance was quite minimalist sort of industrial. Now let us get with the food. 3 focus, soups, sandwich, salads. Decided to have a angus beef chilil, and the tuna melt with a side order of cornbread. The tuna melt, don't really have alot of it but this one i can say probably best if not second best i have had in my life. The chili was flavourful, not use to actual beef chunks but it worked, and partnered up with the cornbread something to consider with you come here. Finally the staff was nice, considerate and helpful as i asked questions and answered with delight. It is a nice balance and something to check out when you come into the penticton area

Delicious food, but not huge servings. I took my parents there and they enjoyed the history of the building (car dealership photos) and the old serving trays. They described the place as a little too trendy for them, but agreed the food was filling.

Yves Zwy

Awesome soups and the best corn bread!

Kyle Beekman

Food is delicious! As great as the food is, there is not enough. I was still hungry when I left. Atmosphere is really great and the staff is awesome.

Raina Dawn Lutz

Brodo has amazing food and super happy customer service. Killer bone broth. Enough said.

Steve Rodrigue

Surprisingly good sandwiches and soups. A delight! Deserves 5 stars. Nice lunch stop for locals and tourists.

Melissa DeLorme

The best sandwich I have ever had. Exceptional!

Jerome Abraham

Awesome. This is my go-to lunch spot in Penticton. Paul and his staff are just amazing and the food is the best. Just had the chicken and waffle special the other day and it blew the doors off. So fantastic as always!

Django Schmidt

Great food and decent prices if you know how to order.

JoAnne Adamson

Great food. Highly recommend.

Shelley Cox

Spencer Coyne

The food is amazing. Great staff

Mockie

Best French onion soup I've ever had, and I've had it in Paris! Excellent food, a must if you're visiting Penticton

Kortney Klassen

soo. this place is always top of the list of where to eat in penticton.

Roy Sommerey

This is a casual cafeteria style restaurant set in the original Penticton Chrysler Building on Main Street. There is no table service and your food order is made at the counter. Unless the kitchen staff have time to bring it out to you, you pick it up when it is called by number. This restaurant was fairly busy in the middle of a Sunday afternoon with people coming regularly so it is obviously popular with the locals. The menu items were unique including both vegetarian and non-vegetarian choices. The soups we're interesting and the artisan bread they used with their sandwiches was very different and probably baked in house but I did not ask about that. I would come back next time I travel to Penticton.

Michael Fisher

Delicious food. Great service. Cozy.

James Mayer

Great food! Great service!

Avi Dey

Really great soups and the staff was really helpful

Bianca Marie

You know it's something special when you are saying mmmm, mmmm, mmmm, with every bite!! All I have to say is WOW! Just look at how many berries are in this muffin!! Quality, care and mega flavour is the name of the game at BRODO!

Janice Stevens

I love love this place. Always have picked up soups. However decided this year 2020 to order Christmas dinner. The BEST ever. Ordered two and enjoyed for two days. Fantastic value and so comforting. Thanks so much. I am a grateful human. ❤️

Ken Stark

Very disappointing. High priced, low quality, extremely small portioned meals. Poor service. I had pulled pork. It was very small bun and had hardly any pulled pork which lacked flavor. Mostly ham and a bit fatty at that. My friend ordered a soup. Less than a real cupful of a savourless mix of obviously canned peas and carrots for a whopping $7. And he had to go back to the counter to ask why his order number hadn’t been called. They had forgotten about it. My mini sandwich was over $11..00 with a simple drip coffee that was both lukewarm and weak. Steer clear of this place. Incomprehensible how anyone could give this place more than one star.

Vincent Fretz

Its awesome there. Sandwiches are of high quality, the soups great, and above all, it's very clean.

Darius E.

Food is mind blowing. Good pricing too! Honestly do yourself a favor and stop in to grab some grub.

Angela Wiens

Always good, wholesome food.

Michael Lau

Best sandwiches and amazing Claude. Try the Cubano!

Kevin Greer

Yesterday my fiance and I had the privilege to indulge ourselves in the delicious food and drink Brodo has to offer. We have been working with Chef Paul to help cater our wedding. Brodo came highly recommended to us through our venue - we assumed they would have good food but we were absolutely blown away by the complex flavours and combinations they created. The service, prices, and atmosphere were just as fabulous making our entire experience out of this world. We will be recommending all of our family and friends to drop by for a bite and we are SO looking forward to enjoying their food on our wedding day! THANK you Chef Paul and all the incredible, kind staff working out of Brodo kitchen!

Stevie Pee

Good food, small menu choice,(which may change,)but fast and yummy

fisnik imeri

Great food. Excellent meals A hidden gem in Penticton

Chandra Moffat

Amazing soups and salad, can't wait to return

Barbara Gregg

Excellent food. We had the salmon fish and chips. Great choice.

Taylor Reid

Very good sandwich and friendly service!

Guzal

Brodo catered our wedding in September of last year and they were absolutely amazing! Chef Paul created a special menu for us including appetizers, first course, main, dessert, and oh my goodness it was the most incredible meal we've ever had!!! If we could give them 7 out of 5 stars we would! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Tanya Osborne

Amazing food but portions are small.

Clinton Wong

Great spot, will definitely come back next time I'm in town. Food was delicious, reasonably priced, and the staff was very friendly. Great variety of drinks and eats.

Danny H

The sandwiches were stupendously good. Good thing I was wearing sandals because it would have blew my socks off. The homemade soup was also scrape-the-bowl delicious. Eat in or take it to go, if you want a high quality and tasty sandwich and/or soup, look no further.

Za G.

Bests sandwiches in town. All made from scratch and with fresh produce. You can never go wrong.

JaCoolPanda

Great tiny place! Caring staff and affordable quality food. One of my favorite places in town and will be visiting again.

Kari Scott

I am a big fan of Brodo - they take care of us each and everytime we come in. They are always happy to customize my order due to allergies, and the food tastes amazing!

Cynthia Grantham

Delicious food, great variety and amazing service!

Jeremy Kroeker

Amazing food, good price, friendly service!

Annick G

Omygod that soup! Thanks guys! We will definitely be back. Greetings from the Dutch couple from Vernon.

Bryan Penfound

Nice quaint place for a small lunch in town. I found selection to be small and not much for allergies or exclusion diets.

Cassandra & Brad Heinzman

Brodo Kitchen is truly one-of-a-kind! They are professional and their experience is evident in the taste and presentation of their dishes. As wedding industry experts, we are very choosy with who we refer to our couples as vendors and Brodo Kitchen is high on our recommended vendors list. The chef takes so much care in his work, it is very refreshing to see; the food is just AMAZING!

Navpreet Ganda

Soup and sandwich spot. Portions are just right for 1 person. I liked the ratio of ingredients of the sandwiches, not too much bread or meat, well balanced. Pictured: chicken sandwich & tomato soup

Richard Moore

It is a cafeteria-style bistro. The food is very good, with soups and sandwiches along with daily specials. Pleasant and helpful staff. Lunch for two with a beverage was under $25. Would go again.

Josh Craven

Everything I've ever had from Brodo has been simply amazing, from the French onion soup to the exquisite chicken sandwich with candied jalapeño relish. My grandparents and I come here almost every time we have lunch in Penticton, and it's never been anything short of amazing. Truly a modern Penticton icon.

James Conner

My wife and I where in petition for the evening and decided to setup by Brodo for dinner. When we arrived we learned of their thanksgiving turkey special. It was amazing the turkey, stuffing, veggies, sweet potatoes, gravy it was all amazing. They also had a deconstructed crumble that is worth the trip by itself.

chinmak

cc accepted. Free street parking. Soups and sandwiches made to order. Sitting area available.

Vinny Dumas

Just ate here tonight, and this place is a gem. Was quite likely the best bowl of chilli I’ve ever had.... lifetime best kinda level..... I also had their Quinoa salad which again I would compare favorably to any I’ve had at any price point..... anywhere. Ingredient quality and taste was absolutely exceptional, and far exceeded expectations. I was officially wowed.... Decor wise it’s simple but effective, think Sbux esque.... Service was friendly and attentive, but again.... can’t say enough about how delicious the food was. Honestly, if this place was in Van City or Portland, there would be lineups to be seated.... no question. I can’t vouch for everything on the menu, but the Chilli with Quinoa salad completely hit it out of the park....????

Simon Moore

Soup and sandwich deal is awesome. Best soup ever

Natalie Corbett

Best fresh Steam crispy chicken buns I've ever had. So crispy and soft!! ???? Their food is always top notch, soups are great, sandwiches are awesome. Can't go wrong here ????

W Anders

Delicious sandwiches and soups! Excited to go again!

Aidan L.

Sandwiches were pretty solid (Cuban and meatball) if a little on the small side to price ratio. What grinds my gears, and kept me from rating Brodo higher, is they charge $8 for a Caesar salad that looks like this... No thank you very much.

Duane Pinkney

Fantastic food made with fresh good ingredients

Cheryl Woods

Super lunch great service and prices

Martha

Two thumbs up for Brodo Kitchen and the date night at home meals. Fabulous!

Anne W

Absolutely delicious! And the rotating features means there is always something new to try. Today features ground moose meat tacos!

Rob Balic

This is a little gem in Penticton. Great food for a fresh lunch. Try the flat bread!!

Terry Vandament

Great food small portions

Christine Tran

Great flavours, very unique. The quinoa squash and pear salad is very memorable. Highly reccomend!

Christopher Nowell

It was a nice friendly restaurant with healthy food. The food tasted great

Rick Tayal

They have a small menu and everything on it is good, I like that I can pick anything on the menu and it's good. I cannot say he same about any other place in the okanagan.

Steven Pawluch

OMG this place is amazing. Best meat ball sandwich I've ever had. Staff is so friendly and the soups are awesome

Carey Larsen

If you go for the soup be sure to bring your magnifying glass to find the small portion size. French onion soup was more like onion. No parmesan or melted cheese. The chicken soup left you looking for the chicken and rubbery tofu marshmallows replaced that. Okay flavour. You get 3/4 cup of lukewarm water and go pick your own tea bag. Heard another customer grumble about his sandwich . The Mexican restaurant just up the road will get our business .

Jacob Loewen

Got the Cubano sandwich; really good flavour! Quick spot for lunch.

Chris Furgala

Great lunch place. Tomato soup and steak salad special were excellent.

Grey Hearts Denim

Great lunch, amazing service!

Judy F

Self-serve, limited menu selection and a bit pricey for what you get. But my lentil soup with corn bread was good. My boyfriend liked the homemade hood quality bread used for his sandwich. Good place for a snack I suppose.

Lucas Achtem

Unique dishes, daily specials, culinary skill like none other! Chef Paul and his crew will always deliver an amazing meal!

Farnaz Gholami

Amazing food! The veggie flatbread is extra tasty! The tomato and parmesan soup full of taste! Staff are friendly and helpful! Def a must!

Nicole Clark

I love eating at Brodo's! Best tomato parmesan soup I have ever had! Everything else is great too.

Ryan Griffith

Awesome food, great service Also Ken Stark's review below should try McDonalds if he isn't interested in paying for quality food. Don't ruin someone's 5 star review because your cheap.

Nicholas Vincent

Excellent food. I always order the special blind, never fails to impress.

Lily Johnson

Thank you for the brownie on my birthday yesterday may 16

Ella McEwen

Did not disappoint. Wish they were open on the weekend because I would have come back each day for more of their sandwiches!! I got their pulled pork special and it was amazing.

Jesse Hudson

Fantastic soups and sandwiches. Friendly staff.

Callan Ruderman

Great staff, fresh ingredients, awesome menu items and pairings. If your passing through this is definitely a must stop or if your a local this would definitely be a regular place! I had the Roast Root Vegetable Flatbread and Soba Noodle salad which were both spot on. Both were filling but light enough to not leave me bogged down to hit the trails afterwards.

Brad Nunes

We went here for dinner around 7pm and the place was totally dead and had already sold out of their main special. Apparently you have to get in early. I had their bone broth (super good) and a ceaser salad. They had run out of portobellos for the salad but used a nice duxelle instead. Sad we missed the main event but what we did have was tasty and affordable. Would recommend but dont be late!

dangspiffy

Delicious food, excellent service. They knew exactly what to accommodate me for my allergy. Will definitely be back.

ROBERT ALLEN JACK

The service was good,however was not my type of food,alittle bit strange for me,great comfortable atmosphere.

Alexis MacMillan

If you are in Penticton this is an absolute must stop for lunch or dinner. The food is fresh and homemade by Chef Paul and team. The atmosphere is funky casual with a friendly vibe. I wanted to stay in Penticton longer so I could eat again.

Matthew Alexander -Brown

Best sandwichesand award winning soups in Penticton. A perfect way to end a day at the beach or after a great mountain bike ride!

john gjaltema

Brodo is a great place to drop by for coffee when downtown, or something to eat.

Jordo On Fire

Best lunch spot in town - very reasonable prices for such high quality food. Not your typical ham sandwich and soup deli... Fast and friendly service with doggo-friendly seating outside.

Terry Sotir

Loved the roasted chicken & brie sandwich with rhubarb & peach relish, ginger pickled vegetable stew, local greens, wasabi mayo....A bottle of 2014 5 Vineyards Cabernet Merlot to share and you are good to go...

Peter Wynn

It's one of the best restaurants in downtown Penticton. Great food and wonderful service!

Miles Murphy

First time eating here ! The food is so amazing !

Kimberley

Brodo catered our wedding on June.16th and simply crushed it! Professional, dedicated, with timely communication during the whole process. They were a joy to work with. We did a cocktail style reception with food stations (instead of the traditional banquette or sit down), and the whole team rose to the challenge with ease.. Our food selections were gourmet twists on family favorites with a few "foodie" items, and it felt like every single guest came up to us to comment on how delicious the food was and that it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding (whoa!). We feel grateful to have had the Brodo team cater our wedding. Looking forward to lunch next time we're in town!

Elisa M

Food was good, not great, but good. The staff are AMAZING!!!!!

Jennifer Vincent

To say this is a great soup & sandwich place is not enough, although the bulk of the menu offers these items. Chef Paul Cecconi and his fantastic team provide consistently delicious food that celebrates local ingredients. It's a hotspot for locals at lunch and dinner and a must visit when you're in town.

Lene Findlater

We were looking for something different & wow were we surprised! Came for soup and I had the chicken quesadilla soup. It was wonderful and tasty. My husband had the special of the day Mexican Vegetable soup and he was very impressed as well. We really enjoyed our experience! Staff were friendly and the place was clean!

MrCdnBeef

Fantastic discovery on Main Street. The owner has intense passion for food and it shows in the high quality. The staff are strongly influenced by the owner's love of food and people. This is one of those places that everything is top shelf. Don't even worry about the prices, because it is worth every penny.

Malia Benmore

Phenomenal food and service! Brodo and chef Paul catered our wedding at Linden Gardens in Kaleden and they were absolutely amazing!! The food was tremendous and the service was incredible ???? Thank you so much to chef Paul and everyone at brodo catering!!!

Joanna Rose

Yum yum yum!! I’ve only ever had the soups here but the sandwiches sound amazing and I’m definitely going to try them one day. The dumpling soup, SO good. I especially love the crispy cheese type chip thing garnish. GENIUS. Also the chicken tortilla soup with the crispy tortilla chips on top mmm. ALSO the corn bread that you can order on the side is perfect. It’s a really great location, the sitting area is massive, lots of room for people. 10/10 would recommend.

Kristine Richmond

Delicious! My husband and I came for dinner because we were looking for somewhere that serves local fresh food. I had the turkey and gouda sandwich with a Caesar salad and my husband had the special sandwich with the curried quinoa salad. They were both amazing, fresh and delicious. I also had a glass of the rose wine (Monster Vineyards) which was surprisingly nice and worked well with the sandwich. As we were about to leave one of the staff brought over a couple little complimentary chocolate pannacottas which were also delicious. We both worked in restaurants for years so are very picky when it comes to food quality and Brodo is top notch! We are leaving Penticton tomorrow but are thinking we may come by for lunch on our way out of town... Nicely done Brodo!

Justin Giroux

Paul and the entire Brodo team, from office staff to the on-venue service team, absolutely nailed the catering! We had Brodo cater our wedding and we truly could not have asked for a better company to do the job. Super friendly, efficient, punctual, and the food was truly next level. Will only use Brodo for any catering needs going forward for any any event!

Paul Frankland

Great place! Small menu, but the soups and sandwiches are quite excellent! Counter ordering, with quick service. Makes for a great lunch spot, especially if you are on a time limit.

Kevin Schindler

Brodo means broth and not short for bro do jo, but the sandwiches are amazing!

John Conybeer

Paul always goes above and beyond to provide the best taste experience. Thoughtful menu preparation. Always a destination when I come back to Penticton!

OChristy Wiley

Walked in the door and the smell was amazing! Everything here is done from scratch and you can taste the quality.

Chantel Reems

Good food and service, quaint venue.

Brendan Cleaver

Absolutely amazing soup and sandwichs! Friendly, homey atmosphere. A staple for a comfortable lunch that makes you feel at home!

Ian Cousins

Great food, interesting ingredients and friendly staff.

Ryan H

Fantastic lunch today. Sign at the door is a bit confusing as it says to order at window outside. I had phoned in a order and thought I could walk in. Guess I was wrong. Can’t wait to go back next time I’m in town.

Emily Peters

Excellent food and service every time I visit Brodo. My go-to for lunch dates in Penticton, 100%

Rain Farrington

Super delicious, healthy, friendly place!

Jeannette Gallant

Perfect. Tiny place simple counter service and top quality food. The Cubano and Smoked tuna sandwiches were amazing. Such fresh bread roll. Going back for the chilli while we are here in town.

Calen Rucastle

Best burgers in the entire world. Thanks Mathew for the AMAZING service. A perfect end to our 10 year anniversary.

Robin Fredrickson

This place never disappoints! Gourmet soups and sandwiches, how awesome is that?!? Very cool casual vibe, Penticton is lucky to have this place. Went to a private xmas party here a couple years ago and had the BEST pork belly of my LIFE.....I still fantasize about it! Tons of respect to Paul the owner, super hardworking positive guy. I wish you and your great staff continued success!

Frank Engler

Super friendly service, top quality ingredients, very fair pricing for attention to details and imaginative dishes.

Anamaria Morris

Delicious, great service. Try the cornbread!

Surbhi

At the time I was ordering, a regular customer walking past me saw I was confused and said 'Order anything, everything is delicious here'. And it was true. Everything I ordered was so flavorful. The tomato soup was so creamy.

C “ChrisM” Merrell

Bring your appetite and taste buds. If you don't like what you eat, something is wrong with you. Seek help.

Dominique Gautier

Going on two years of coming here, I’ve tried just about everything on the menu and there is nothing that isn’t absolutely delicious!

Curtis Nigh

Brodo catered my brothers wedding and the food was absolutely amazing!

Craig Dickau

Great soup and sandwich, had the Cubano which was very good and the French Onion Soup which was spectacular. I wish I would have gotten the large soup, it was that good.

Jonathon Hanson

Most delicious meatball sandwich I have ever had. It’s not a tourist trap. A few parking spots right out front. Wonderful!

Ashley Truman

Great bistro food friendly staff, cute little lunch stop in the summer.

Joan Donogh

Due to dietary restrictions, I have to eat gluten free, and Brodo is able to make most of their sandwiches gluten free. The sandwiches are excellent, and the gluten free bread is the best I have ever had (besides my homemade). Most of there soups are also gluten free and very good too.

Richard Millard

I am NEVER disappointed by the food here. The quantities are not huge, but they are very reasonable, and the imagination put into the flavors in each dish is amazing. You might think "sandwich - blah" but don't think that here. I'm also not usually a soup person, but Brodo is one place I always look forward to trying their soups... get the large bowl!

Heather Anderson

Great food! Great service

Greg K

Very friendly, good service but note the French onion soup is actually oinion soup there is no cheese baked on top !

Ian Brunton

What is this place?!?!? I tried 5 different things off the menu and each of them was amazing! A definite must stop if you’re in the Okanagan!

James Adamson

Food was delicious and fast. Great service and food.

CarolAnn Trabert

Wonderful food combinings in a friendly and informal atmosphere!

Stephen Murakami

Great spot. Pickup window during COVID and everything we had was flavourful and tasty.

Warrant

It may seem mediocre with cafeteria style ordering, but these people are putting their hearts into the food. Fresh, local ingredients made into delicious food. Well done!

Robert Caravan

Had the pulled pork sandwich and mushroom lenti soup. Excellent!

Oscar Lucier

Very comfortable environment, a staff that is educated on the menu and willing to be creative to increase options (my daughter is vegan), and food you can tell is created with pride and love. The broth!

Jenn Wightman

Paul and his team catered our wedding and everything was amazing. Food and service were both outstanding and all of our guests commented on how great the food was. I highly recommend.

Jeremy S

Take out only when I went with the whole Covid deal, we found a table outside for the three of us. Food was amazing, service was amazing. Highly recommend stopping by for the sandwiches and soups. The guy handing out the food was super friendly but not too friendly hang around and talk too much while you want to eat. 10/10, will visit again.

David Mendoza

Great sandwiches and soups. Fast. Polite. Convenient.

Martha Cantarini

Soup was delicious. Caesar salad in little cups left a lot to be desired. For 8 dollars will not order the C again . . . ever. Verging on an insult . . . .

Katya MacDonald

Brodo catered our wedding on september 17th, possibly the most windy day I have ever experienced and they were INCREDIBLE! Between helping with the blustery set up, keeping decor in place, and cleaning up (including doing our dishes) despite not being employed to, just to help us make our day go by smoothly. I am so incredibly grateful for their dedication to their work, their fantastic service, all the extra care and attention they gave us, and for going above and beyond due to the weather conditions being a handful. I would choose brodo to do any of my upcoming events because I know they will do everything they can to make it better than ever. Not to mention their food is INCREDIBLE! It is still such a highlight for so many who attended and many of our guests are excited to visit the restaurant soon!

B

A great place to try something new because it will be delicious, everything always is.

Leanne Nagy

Great sandwiches with unique flavors! Will definitely be back. Bonus, we were able to order from the window so no need to go inside during Covid-19 restrictions.
