Wow!! Elma was phenomenal for the little date I had with my boyfriend’s mom. The wine list was good. The food was quite good although the grilled octopus definitely lacked freshness and chewiness, which is what octopus meat is loved for. The swordfish and dessert was amazing though. It is an amazing place for any occasions. The view is amazing. The interior design is thoughtful and stylish. The staff are amazing. Especially Michelle.
The location of this restaurant is amazing, just in water front. We were looking for a special place to celebrate our son's graduation. Big mistake! It is neither Turkish cuisine at all nor inspired! They changed the recipes in a bad way. To be honest we didn't like most of the food. The staff were nice and friendly, but there was a misunderstanding in our order so we have been charged almost 50 dollars more! I wish they could hire a good Turkish or Mediterranean chef to increase the quality and good taste of the food. Otherwise there are better choices around Elma Restaurant.
We had dinner here last night and were blown away by the food, ambience and service. The hostess was so kind and accommodating and our server Ebony was incredibly thoughtful with her menu recommendations. She took the time to speak with us about the dishes and didn't make us feel remotely rushed even though we were there towards the end of the night. The food was amazingly flavorful and fresh with great quality ingredients. I wish we lived closer so we could come here regularly.
Probably one of the best restaurants we have ever been too in a long time. Every single thing we got was creative and delicious. The cocktails were very unique and well done too. All of the food is Turkish which isn’t something you find often, especially in the Okanagan! I highly recommend coming to this restaurant, it is worth the drive even if you live in Kelowna.
Let’s start with this… We drove from Vancouver to dine in this restaurant and it was the best decision made! Hospitality, atmosphere and the taste feels like you’re in high-end restaurant in Istanbul. Simply the best! Thank you for representing Turkish food and culture the best way possible!
INCREDIBLE Turkish food, and great vibes. I've never had a food experience quite like this one! My husband liked it so much that we had to come back a second time during our trip. For two people, I'd recommend ordering one dip which comes with bread, two plates, and one dessert to share. The only downside: we felt the servers were a bit snobby, but wasn't a big enough deal to dock a star. Oh and the sujuk pide was a little uninspired, but everything else was 5/5.
Absolutely fantastic food. Delicious and good portions. The restaurant is very nicely done and the staff knew their stuff. Great menu and some good cocktails too.
Lovely setting right along the beach of Penticton. Welcoming service and amazingly diverse menu. Some faults IMO is what most seem like to me, or might as well have been, a mini sesame sourdough loaf cut into 4 slices to go with our flight of 3dips over $30. Which forces you to either purchase another loaf or more pita. We asked for more bread, +$6 on our bill. Why not give more bread? I used heaping spoonfuls of dips and there was still dip left after two loaves. Overall the rest of the dishes were delightful, we had the beef tongue donair, special charcoal mackerel, Elma fries and their signature octopus dish. My fav was the octopus. We had two out of the three desserts offered, pavlova with raspberries and lemon; and the crème fraiche with baklava filling and honeycomb bits. Slightly sweeter than I would like but nice flavours in both desserts. It’s really great to see a unique restaurant in the Okanagan that does a really good job executing both the concept of the menu and cooking it. It’s $$$$$ but worth it for special occasions.
We randomly dined here one evening while passing through Penticton and what a pleasant surprise it was. The restaurant had nice decor, food had upscale presentation, and our server, Michael, was extremely friendly and helpful. We enjoyed several cocktails, their hummus, oyster mushroom pide, grilled swordfish, chicken shish, hangar steak, and Elma fries. Their menu items were clearly marked for those with certain dietary requirements/allergies. I was able to enjoy their fried items too as their frier, with their current menu, did not include any gluten containing items.
Wonderful cocktails and environment. The food is fantastic and very different from what’s in penticton. Wheel chair accessibility to the ground floor section of the restaurant. Would recommend to everyone.
