REVIEWS OF The Cellar Wine Bar and Kitchen IN Penticton

Carla Taylor

Great food, good service,nice wine list. Would go again. Server was super nice!

Tyson S

A picture says a million words and I just don't have one to share! We sat on the patio during the later part of the evening where they allowed our 4 month old puppy to enjoy people watching and smells with us. Our waitress was so nice! Quick! Orders were great and personable. Though they were out of the oh so popular Greek Lamb roast the 8oz steak was perfectly cooked and incredibly tender it just melted in your mouth. They subbed out the mash for the classic Greek lemon roasted potatoes and flavorful seasonable vegetables. Definitely recommend and we will be back again!

Ben Seidel

Wonderful restaurant! Delicious, authentic food. Ceasar salad is soo good with full leaf, anchovies and garlic and perfectly dressed. Lamb chops and mashed potatoes were delicate , smooth and very flavorful. Loved the seafood fettuccine in a tomato sauce. Ample seafood. Very well balanced drinks were generous and never shorted on the alcohol. Service was professional and attentive. Very well done! Goes to the top of my favorite list!!

Second time there and the food was great both times. Not just for us, but for all 8 of us. Service good. Nice outdoor seating. The fries are seriously good, and I am not usually a fries eater. We will definitely be going again.

Laura Schubert

I have removed one star for the wait. 1h wait for the filled chicken and there was almost nobody in the restaurant. Second, the restaurant is a bit pricey, but I must tell the meal was very good. The waiter / waitress was kind too. However, I would have appreciated being advised of such a wait before I order. Also, please provide some bread or snacks when you realize there was a problem with an order. Thanks

Paul Steckler

One of my favorite restaurants in Penticton

Amazing place to stop and eat! Only place I've ever seen a Greek coffee - it didn't disappoint. We also had the Epic burger and the ginger beer salad wraps, sooo amazing!

Evan Parrott

Wow expensive but well worth it. My daughter had the lamb and I had the black blue stake, a Ceasars and a coke. $97.00 both dishes were exceptional.

Veronica Shields

Fantastic food great service awesome wine list.

Aymeric Pasquier

Food was okay. The service from the older lady at the front door/ lady who served us was rude after we arrived 3 minutes late because we are not from Penticton and were trying to figure out how to download the app for parking. She stated that it's almost 5 after. She also did not check for ID or our vaccine passports. Her service was poor and she was very short. And in a rush to get us out the door. There was some confusion about when the dinner menu started and she scoffed and walked away. Loved the food, but would reconsider revisiting. Not sure if I would recommend this to a friend.

Donna R

Great Host. Attentive servers, not hard on the eyes either. Great Burgers and beverages. Just one cowboys opinion. Stay Wild!

Tim Scott

Nancy McKay

Excellent restaurant. The Mediterranean and Greek dishes are really authentic. We’ve been for lunch a few times and dinner as well, have never been disappointed. The sockeye salmon in the 007 sandwich or the Mumbai salad is amazing so fresh and perfectly cooked. Chicken and Brie sandwich is another favorite. Dinner favs include both lamb dishes and the Cioppino. Seafood here is trustworthy and delicious. Good wine selection and very fairly priced menu. Our server Heidi was gracious and attentive. Tim has also served us and he is always excellent, tireless and always has a wonderful smile to go along with his top notch service. We give it a full 2 thumbs up ????????????????

Jerome A.

Food was awesome but they were busy and we didn't get the service. Would like to have had some extra drinks and dessert.

Jan Timmers (VE7JBT)

Nice place,good service, food-not so great. Octopus was over done, pork was super dry & chewy.

Petra BC, Canada

November'21: First time there for lunch. January '22: second time for lunch. Very nice place and ambience. Food was delicious. People very friendly. Highly recommended.

Chuck Wortman

Have been eating here for 2 years and have enjoyed past experiences. After ordering lunch today, I will not be going back. Placed an order for myself and a friend for takeout. She has many allergies. One item that she has always been able to order with no alterations, came today with an item she is highly allergic to. When the polite waitress looked at the menu with me, it did show this item. But over the last 2 years when we have ordered it, it was never on there. So we were extremely shocked to see it this time. If it had been our mistake I would have apologized and paid to have it remade. But when the waitress explained this to the owner/cook he yelled obscenities loudly so the other customers in the restaurant could hear as well and called me a liar. His attitude and reaction were highly unappropriate and uncalled for. Will no be going back. You don't treat your customers like this.

Jamie Ford (Mathematica)

Great Okanagan wines on menu great dishes to share. Good food friendly service.

Stacy Franck

Worst service ever 20 people for my moms birthday (it was a reservation!) and cant get a drink kids food comes out last and burger is burnt servers ignored you you absolutely the worst resturant experience ever last time was amazing that's why we came back and total dissapointment this time! Most of the food was amazing but the kids food was terrible!

Lee-Ann McEllister

The food was absolutely fantastic and service was wonderful as well ????

Harpreet singh

Darius E.

Got seated pretty fast then sat at our table for about 20 mins before a server even acknowledge us and said that she would be by. We wait for another 15 mins with still no one even coming to take our drink order or greet us. We eventually just left because none of the servers even cared to help us despite walking past us multiple times. The restaurant was also relatively empty so why we were left without so much as a hello from our server us astonishing. Definitely will not being coming back.

Mark Terry

Great service, great food every time!!!

Raina Dawn Lutz

Always good service and food at the Celler. We love this restaurant.

John Connor

Mainly good food and friendly service. The Moroccan lamb was delicious but the fish taco starters were heavy on the salad with very little fish and not much flavor. The concept is confusing. Its a wine bar but there is a saddle near the bar. The menu has many Greek dishes but they also serve steak. The tv shows rodeo. Is it trying to be all things to all people? The place was very quiet on a Wednesday but looked busier on a Thursday.

Boogie Van

Very slow service.

For a wine themed restaurant their selection was limited considering the amount of local wineries. Food was quite good. Good quality and was prepared quite quickly.

Friendly service, loved the food, and good selection of local wines. We'll be back for sure

Marianella Ramos

Tim the barman was excellent. He made the trip to pendicton. Great place and service. Couldn't recommend enough!

Come here at least once a month. Tim is a fantastic server and bartender, I always request him. The food is fantastic, I love the atmosphere. My favorite restaurant!

Great service, totally Covid-19 aware and fantastic food. We will come back often! Lovely ambiance and good wine selection at reasonable prices. Make sure you are here at happy hour. $1.5 off on a glass of wine.

Dear Donnie Darko 76 We are sorry that you felt service at The Cellar was below par. We will say that being a "very" busy establishment in a resort community we try to give all of our patrons the most exemplary service we can provide. We "never" base our service on how people are dressed, being as we often deal with guests who come in from the lake and are in tshirts, shorts/swimsuits. We recognize that every customer is important. We feel disappointed that you were not satisfied with your service, however, abusive language is not acceptable, regardless of how you feel about your service. No one deserves to be treated in such a manner, and although we are disappointed that the service was not to your liking, we, and all the patrons who witnessed the incident are equally offended by your behavior. Mostly we are offended by your lack of understanding and appreciation of someone who works in the service industry, regardless of what you "think" she or anyone earns.

Decided to give The Cellar a shot after spending time on the Bench. We were able to get a reservation last minute, albeit on a Thursday, and we were so happy we did. Excellent service, wonderful food and a menu that made me reminisce about my time spent in Greece. These chefs don't fool around. The quality of the ingredients is fantastic, the flavors are wonderful and the wine list is an excellent representation of the local wineries. I strongly suggest you give it a try!

Allan George

Spectacular food, great atmosphere, amazing drinks. You won't regret going here.

Jessica Baba

Our group of 8 were seated on time at 7pm. Our wine order arrived in a timely manner and we ordered our food and then we waited. Other people came, ordered, ate and left and we were still waiting for our food. Our waitress was great and talked to the kitchen and was told the food would be there when it was there. After about 1 and a half hours, we spoke to the manager who was rude and told us good food takes time to make! She was totally unapologetic. Our food finally arrived after 2 hours and was very good. However, we received no apology nor any offer of free wine or anything else. It was very disappointing!

A B

Good selection of wines. Food is okay.

T Spencer

I was on vacation in Penticton. I went to this restaurant 3 times in one week. The food, the atmosphere, and service were excellent!

Absolutely amazing food and service!

Had a wonderful lunch at The Cellar. The food was amazing and we had a server named Cameron. He was so funny and hospitable. He made our first time experience there so memorable. We will definitely be back.

Ended up here randomly looking for somewhere to have lunch. The patio was great and the service was awesome. Ordered the burger and all I can say is WOW. Definitely one of the best restaurant burgers I've had. Great fries too. Would definitely go back to try more of the food.

Melton Antypowich

Was very disappointed in the 26 dollar meat and cheese platter. Orange cheddar, jalapeno havarti, cheap salami, old fruit... the other food we ordered was ok, but not good enough for me to go back.

Duane Pinkney

Friendly great service wonderful tastey food.

Our food was absolutely excellent! Our server, Tim, was kind, gave good recommendations and was very prompt. Definitely get the black and blue steak!! A wonderful selection of local wines too! Highly recommend!!

Terry Vandament

The best food I've ever had. Highly recomended to anyone

J Martin

We were not able to dine. We called to make reservation but phone was disconnected. Went to the restaurant which was really full. No signage saying wait to be seated so when we went to the bar a lady was quite short with us. We were told we needed to wait for a seat, when we explained we didn't know as there was no signage she stated "well that should be a given". She then told us we couldn't dine as we didn't have a reservation and told us to call. When we explained we did she then said if they are full for the evening they take it off the hook. All things we had no idea about. I understand they are short staffed and stretched, there is signage stating it all over, however we were unimpressed with how we were treated as tourists, looking to support this particular establishment. We apologized for not knowing and went to a different place. We did not go back there this trip as we really didn't feel welcomed.

Very slow service....... Took over an hour to get fed. Was good once it arrived.

Really loved this restaurant. We visited on our first night in Penticton and we couldn't have been happier! Delicious food, amazing service and the most friendly and kind management. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a big wine selection and some authentic and finger-licking good Greek food!

Aimee Erickson

Kathy O'Flaherty

A little cold with cars driving right beside us. The patio heater helped some but it was never turned up enough to do much good. The food was good but we were cold. They need to train servers that the mesh around the burners need to flow before they throw any heat. They are too cheap to tell them that though.

mike k

Waited a good 10 minutes for someone to even take a drink order. Food is above average by "Penticton" standards.

ROBBI BIDDLECOMBE

Nichelle Gosau

Tony David Shepley

The Greek salad was amazing, but the charcuterie board a disgrace to the wine bar name that they try and call themselves. If you want to pay $30 for cheap orange cheddar, feta cheese and cheap garlic sausage, and a cut up apple as your charcuterie board, then eat here. Don’t worry, if you complain to the manager they will be super rude and blame you for their lack of service after the server doesn’t come to your table for your entire meal/manager never comes.

H B

Food was great, our server Kristina was efficient and good. Unfortunately the detriment to the restaurant was the owner Athena. Embarrassed by her behaviour to staff in front of customers.looking at other reviews this isn’t a new problem.Suggest either she stay away or I won’t go back.Blaming her staff for advertised items being unavailable.

Was good food and good service until it got busy. Needs more servers because they can't keep up and took forever for us to get our coffee's and bill. RESERVATIONS A MUST it gets busy very quick and this is not a big place so it fills up.

Delicious! Great service and food, and love the patio!

Rajeev Ayer

The restaurant was half full and our very polite waitress explained that the bartender (the owner) was very busy and did not allow staff behind bar. Thirty five minutes later our table received two glasses of wine and a bottle of Strongbow. Wine by the glass is sold in 5oz, 8oz and 12 oz sizes. Our table ordered a 5 and 8 oz glasses strangely enough the carries for both were the same size with an oz missing out of one. The owner uses 6 oz carafes (bar industry standard) and calls them 8 oz. You could put up with being screwed on price if the drinks which take seconds to pour didn't take 30 plus minutes. Regardless our meals were warm at best, one had to be sent back, forgot to mention our meals arrived before our drinks! This was second time at the Wine Cellar, both times the owner messed up the evening, very nice staff but the owner won't leave them alone or quit interfering. Won't be back and will be sharing my experience with anyone who'll listen.

Great food and service. The fish tacos are my go to.

Derek Kuziemsky

Appetizer scallops were very flavourful, even if a little overcooked. The ahi tuna special was delicious. The rice it came with tasted like it came from a package. Overall, it was a great meal with no room for dessert ????.

Anne DesLauriers

Such amazing food, honestly what a gem of a place to go to. I can't wait to go back for more. Great food, awesome patio, amazing staff and just a great little place to eat and unwind with friends.

Just returned from a super diner at The Cellar Wine Bar and Kitchen. We enjoyed the Greek Moussaka and the salad. It took a little while to get served but we were very pleased with our meal.

Christina Wight

Caitlin MacNeil

First off I had to call 8 times in a row before anyone even answered the phone.... I ordered a pick up and was told 15 mins....waited sitting at the bar for 40 mins.... When I got home 5 mins away the kalamari was already cold and rubbery my fish taco was a fish stick out of a box with coleslaw and my mumbai salad had the driest piece of sockeye salmon I had ever tasted.... The mousaka was the only thing that we were satisfied with and we prob wont ever go back :-/

Erik Romi

This is a restaurant that has amazing food. My only advice is that you order desert first. The Navarino is to die for.

Food was incredible. Great service

Sushi L.

My group waited almost 1.5 hrs for the entrees to come! The server was so poorly trained. When we complained about the long wait time, he didn’t acknowledge our frustration. Instead, he asked if we would like to order a drink while waiting ?! I told him I did not want to order any drinks. We only want the food to come. Then he proactively offered the manager to come to our table. However the manager never came to my table. Food wise, the appetizers were mediocre. Entrees were in higher quality

Carol Barkley

Well put together place. The food was good and the service great. They have a great wine selection and when we were there it went all that busy.

Great food but jeez what a horrible miserable Dr.Jekyll & Mr. Hyde personally of a waitress! Hello? What's your deal?? Even the owner, who is making a killing ripping people off on wine!!! Thanks again.

Ed Murr

Drove from Calgary to Penticton and after the long haul I was tired and very hungry so I asked my son to find us a restaurant that had a good steak dinner. He met me at the Cellar and I ordered the 10 oz sirloin with crispy onions and a blue cheese butter. It came with fresh seasonal vegetables that were grown in their own garden and delicious mashed potatoes. The steak came to the table on a sizzling skillet with blue cheese butter bubbling away under it. As I cut it it he steak I was able to drizzle the butter over each bite .. simply amazing! Each bite was more spectacular than the previous one! My son ordered the Mousakka dinner and it was also extremely delicious and a very generous portion. He was unable to finish his meal and had to take part of it home. The ambiance of the place is very nice and contemporary and the staff is very friendly and attentive. I will definitely go back again next time I’m in Penticton

Eric Saban

Fantastic food and fabulous friendly service.

kelby eichenauer

Cocktails were just not good, bland food, very poor service, cooks not wearing masks, servers drinking leftover margaritas from the blender. Pasta tasted like milk. The reviews for this place must be either bought, friends or just fake. Spend your money literally anywhere else.

Rosie Thorpe

The food is wonderful and the service excellent. Great place to go.

Well earned 5 stars. I'm not much of a steak guy but this was one the best steaks I've ever had.

Sasha S.

Second time visiting on vacation and impressed both times. Restaurant is very Covid aware and diligent with safety measures. The lamb chops were superb, the best I’ve had in a long time. The Cellar burger was also amazing. Thank you Athena for you’re great service and and attentive service with our group. Will definitely visit each time through town.

We ate here once before and it was fabulous so we decided to go here tonight for a "sure thing" dinner because we don't go out very often. Sadly disappointed. Stood at the "blue line" to be seated and had waiters and waitresses walk by without acknowledging us. We were eventually seated and it went downhill from there. Nothing offered to drink and no specials mentioned when we were seated. We read the menu, made our selections, closed the menus and waited until our waiter showed up. At that point he unfolded a piece of paper from his pocket and read us the specials (again, after we'd finally decided what to eat), and asked us if we'd like a drink and took our dinner orders. Our drinks were finished during our appetizer. When the waiter took the plate he left, then later returned with our dinner and then asked if we'd like another drink and we said yes. Dinner was served and finished and still no drinks. I had the stuffed chicken which was dry and tasted only and strongly of cooked spinach. Wife's salmon was also overcooked. Waiter never checked on us at any point during our meals to see if things were okay or he would have been told that both meals were overcooked. We finally flagged down another waitress and cancelled the drinks after dinner because they still hadn't arrived our waiter finally came to us and offered us something complimentary but we were completely put off at this point. His excuse for not brining us drinks was that they "must have been lost in the mix." Either a poorly trained new waiter and a weak chef who shouldn't be serving at a "top" restaurant. Very disappointed especially after our first experience being the opposite. When factoring the prices vs the quality and service this time, we won't be back unfortunately. Also, Trip Advisor has reviews of them and it shows the price range of meals as being up to $35/CDN. Many of the entrees start above this price, the highest being a 12 oz steak for $48 so be aware that it's far more expensive than they are showing there.

Justin Marshall

We visited the Cellar on Wednesday July 22nd for my friends birthday during our vacation in pentiction and I have to say that our server Tim was fantastic! Being someone who works in the hospitality business it's very hard to find attentive and professional service however Tim hit the bar high! I never complain, but my steak was unfortunately overcooked but without even having to finish my sentence Tim noticed the mistake and corrected it. The remake steak was PERFECT. We appreciate Tim and the company for making our friends birthday a memorable one! We will definitely be stopping in during our next visit to Pentiction.

The decor defines the ambience for what one would expect with a name like The Cellar; clean, classy and comfortable. The selection of local wine was great. It's nice to see a restaurant support the regional craft. The food was fan-bloody-tastic. The Moroccan lamb was succulent and flavoured perfectly. The ony thing more exceptional than the food were the staff. Athena (one of the owners), Kim and Tyler made this a momentous experience. I felt right at home.

Went because of the good reviews but we very disappointed. The meat was fatty, but our veggies were over cooked. It a bad sign when every meal comes with the same sides. I felt like I stepped back into the 90s eating here. Heavy cream sauces and salt to cover up bland food.

I've been there 3 times now and each time the food and the service was great. You should go there.

Wow! A worthy rating and apparently the preferred choice when tipping on the machine lol. Probably the best seafood cakes I've had in BC. The french onion soup absolutely hit the spot on a chilly night. Very erudite wine list to boot. Super bang4$s.(tm)

Mike Hildebrand

REALLY Great food, isn't that all you need to know? :)

The server was nice but, be prepared to wait one and a half hours for mussels and a cheese plate. Don't order a second round, you'll never get it. And on our anniversary of all days. ????‍♀️

Such a nice place for lunch or dinner. Their saganaki was delicious - came back for another serving! Great staff as well! Kristina and the evening server made us a delicious chocolate Martina even though it wasn’t on the menu. Beautiful views of penticton as well!

Jeff Ellis

Food was great. Felt unwelcome the moment I walked in the door. There were maybe five people in the place and we were far from under-dressed. Our server sort of lumbered about and mumbled to us disinterestedly, acted judgmental and generally just sort of irritated us. If you want to eat and be ignored this is your spot. The food is really lovely though.

Well as someone who has a passion for cooking and basic food safe standards I’d say microwaving food to thaw out for “fresh” food is honestly embarrassing, it’s a dirty kitchen…honestly only kitchen job I ever walked out on in 8 years of experience

What a fantastic dinner and experience tonight. 5 stars from start to finish. Great service, great food. Couldn't have been any better. Highly recommend this establishment.

To start with, the calamari was overcooked and was quite small with only 3 pieces of jalapeno in the entire dish. Drinks were ok. My $42 steak was served sizzling in a fajita platter, smoking out the entire table as I had to eat it quickly before it overcooked in front of me. The "crispy" onions quickly absorbed all the moisture on the platter and were soon too soggy to eat. Also, my vegetables with the dish were served on a separate plate so I sat there watching them get cold while waiting for the steak, which I didn't even finish. It somehow had no flavor. The blue cheese butter I was looking forward to was basically not existent. Like other reviews have stated, the fish tacos were 85% lettuce. To top it all off, the couple we were with got their food first and were completely finished their meal before we received ours. We voiced our concerns but were not given any comps on the bill.

Paul Mazzei

The restaurant is clean and well appointed, the food is all in all pretty good and well priced. We stopped in for lunch on a Monday afternoon and loved the patio. The wine and liquor options are expansive and cover all the bases. My only real gripe was our server, he was courteous and knowledgeable, but seemed really disinterested in our order or with checking on our table. We would certainly return the next time we're in Penticton to compare, but it left us feeling a little put off.

Beautiful restaurant and good food but that is where it ended for us. Our group of 8 waited 2 hours for our food to arrive with no apologies whatsoever. The server was good but the manager was extremely rude to us. The waitress asked the kitchen and they said it will be ready when it is ready. Good food takes time is what the manager told us while everyone around us got their food and left. We were still waiting. No comps, nothing. We had ordered 2 bottles of wine and expected at least 1 bottle on the house. Very disappointed.

Mary Wise

2nd annual Valentine's dinner with our group of 8. Again it was fantastic. Great food, terrific wine but best of all was the service. A fun evening and would tell anyone and everyone to enjoy a night out here.

Great menu. Everything tasted great and was fresh. The Greek salad was one of the best I ever had.

Decently priced food with not many options in Penticton.

Sheila Balogh

You can tell a good place to eat by the music that is playing, the Cellar had both great music and food, our server was top notch too

Amanda Goar

My Mom and I ate on the patio for lunch. I had the white wine garlic mussels. The portion size was huge and they were delicious. Our server was very nice and efficient.

Elona Bregasi

I had the Paidakia and my companion had the New York Steak. I found the Paidakia to be excellent and she likewise enjoyed the New York.
