2900 Pandosy St #101, Kelowna, BC V1Y 1V9, Canada
Chef Takeshi Ishizaka and manager Tomo Ishizaka, Japanese husband and wife, started this small Asian Fusion Restaurant in 2011. Since then, SOY Asian Fusion is a one of the locals favourite place to eat in the Mission area in Kelowna. We created original Ramen, good soups, fresh salad rolls, hand crafted Asian / Japanese appetizers, rice bowls and more. Dine in and take out ( online order from website) also delivery service by DoorDash available for your convenience.
My favorite Asian fusion restaurant in Kelowna! A must try is the Thai chicken platter, both a breast and thigh served with a trio of appetizers, on rice with veg and the most divine Thai green chili sauce (you'll want to drink that!) I recently tried their Spicy Coconut Ramen (not spicy btw), absolutely delicious! Service is outstanding and quality is always impeccable and consistent.
Finding this restaurant was a gift, not just because of the deliciously fresh, amazingly presented food, but the best people who made it all taste so much better. Highly recommend. We will be back!
Always make sure to come here couple times a year with my friends as a treat. The chicken karaage is the best thing ever.
I really like this place, the pretty waitress there is very demure and full of smiles. They are so approachable and I love how they make you feel welcomed. The food is amazing and the place itself is so cute.. would recommend and will try again another time. 😍
Great experience here - have had their coconut based soup & japanese curry and both were very tasty and fresh!!! You know these were made with love and passion of cooking and serving their customers. I definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Kelowna or a local wanting to try asian cuisine. YUM 🫶 The staff is super friendly too!!! Plus the restaurant vibe is very zen. My husband also enjoyed his burger!
Our group had the Shoyu Wonton Ramen and Yakisoba (with tofu). The warm broth of the ramen was perfect on a cold morning and each order had 5 wonton. There was a generous portion of ramen with a variety of boiled vegetables. Service was prompt and there was parking out front. Seems to be a busy place! The interior was clean with some dividers still between the tables. Would return for their reasonable prices and selection of Asian dishes!
This is such a gem in Kelowna! I did not expect to find good Asian food here. You can tell it's really made with care! A pan-asian menu, but all made with a Japanese sensibility. All the appetizers especially are delicious, and I'd love to try more next time I come! This place reminds me a lot of my favourite places in Japan: clean, organized, with a calm atmosphere and nice music. The service as well was great, so I hope to come here every time I visit Kelowna. If you get tired of all the fancy vineyard stuff and just want a reliably good, proper, delicious meal in a comfortable space, this is it!
Dined for lunch and was so impressed that we returned for a second visit. First time we started with Gyoza appetizers. Excellent flavour. Then had the Spicy Coconut Ramen and the Miso Sesame Ramen. They were very tasty and not too spicy. Lots of vegetables and quite filling. The second time there we had the large Shrimp and Pork Wonton Soup. A little disappointed as the wontons were quite small and not much vegetables at all in the soup. Although wontons were yummy we felt like we were consuming a large bowlful of broth. Both times service was excellent and the server was very attentive to refilling our water glasses and tea. Will definitely be returning to try other items on the menu.
Delicious food and very friendly attentive service. Would highly recommend!
Second time here. FANTASTIC food and excellent service. Give this place a try!! Vegetarian options: Vegetarian and vegan options. Parking: Small lot for about 15 cars
Teriyaki beef rice bowl lacked flavour and the portion could be a bit larger considering the price. It seemed quite small.
Sorry I want to give a good review but there was no flavor in the laksa soup .
Ordered Ramen last time and taste like instant noodles I can cook at home in 3 mins
The coconut ramen is my favourite ramen in Kelowna! Good quantity and taste.
This is the best hidden gem Asian restaurant in Kelowna. I love everything from the ramen to the Korean dishes to japchae to their take on a burger, local saki . Such a fresh surprise, even the spring rolls and appies are so homemade, well done to this mom and pop foodie find! I was just complaining to my wife how most hot dishes at sushi places we have eaten lately are really oily , not here! Fresh and healthy and soooo tasty
Really enjoyed everything on their 3 course dinner menu
Had the shoyu wonton ramen, maybe it was the wrong place to order ramen. Broth had no viscosity, saltines, or umami and was too hot somehow. There was a slight taste of pork or chicken, may have been the oil? Egg was hard boiled and not marinated. There were random vegetables that didnt really go with anything and the menma didnt match the taste of the randomness going on. Wontons were ok but over cooked, noodles were fine. Not worth $20. Staff were lovely, service was fast, place was nice. Might be my fault for ordering ramen
I am always impressed with the care and quality that the chef puts into his food here at Soy Fusion whether I do take out or eat in. Thank you for the delicious take out today it really hit the spot!
I really enjoyed their dinner combo. It is a really good deal to split with a group and i even had some extra food to bring home.
Oh my gosh. I just had first spectacular bowl of the spicy coconut chicken ramen soup. So delicious! Great, kind service and nice location! I will be back for sure Food
Had a very very good lunch. Food was absolutely delicious. Service super friendly. Thank you for a fabulous dining experience...
I odered Ramen and noodles that was inside it is just best noodles that Ive been eaten in my entire life! Thank you DELICIOUS!! And prices are good
Dined here for the first time recently and it was great! Can t believe I had never been here before. I tried the miso ramen and really enjoyed it. I got the large and ended up with leftovers for lunch the next day. I will definitely be back to try other dishes. It was a quiet day but the service was wonderful.
Excellent quality and execution. Whoever was in the kitchen April 7, 2023 was on fire! Chicken karrage was crispy on the outside and super moist and juicy on the inside, perfectly cooked thigh meat. I suggest getting ponzu dipping sauce for the chicken. The crispy wonton were perfectly cooked, bursting with filling and expertly presented. For the main I got the spicy Coconut Ramen and my guest had Miso Sesame Ramen. Both were excellent but if you like heat ask for extra spicy. Servers were attentive without hovering. I dont have any photos because the food was so good I was not willing to stop to take any photos! Highly recommend this restaurant.
Good vegan options!
Honestly so gross
My friends and I really enjoyed the food here! The people working at Soy are so kind and friendly! Ps the waiter was really cute!! :)
Soooo good! Spicy Coconut Ramen. Will definitely visit again next time we are in Kelowna.
Delicious vegan options. Would recommend.
Friendly, quick service. Very tasty, well presented dishes. Vegan and vegetarian options - you can adapt a few dishes on the menu easily. Food : 5/5
Very good Raman!
Excellent spicy coconut ramen done just right, great flavor and piping hot. Bf had wonton ramen that was also very good. Defs one of the better ramen places in town.
You will miss out if you miss this restaurant. Everything was amazing and every bite was delectable.
This is a hidden gem in Kelowna. Simple, delicious Japanese and Korean dishes. Friendly service. The Japchae (stir-fried noodles with beef and veggies) is very tasty. So is the beef bowl + karaage.
Some of the best Asian food I ve ever had!! Amazing experience
Its a great spot, great service without being in your face. Food is delicious!
Best spicy coconut ramen ever!
clean place good quality
Just had take out from Soy for the first time! Amazing! Had the dinner for 2 and every bite was delicious and fresh! I would highly recommend trying this place as it has gluten free and vegan options as well.
Food was amazing. Highly recommend if you are in or travelling to Kelowna.
the service is so friendly. and the food is delicious!
Finally got the chance to pop in after many years. Still fantastic!
Great soup and friendly staff
Absolutely delicious
Great quality. Great value.
Great food and for a great price! Ive been here multiple times, but my favorite dish I have had from there so far was the Pho, with beef. Would definitely recommend!
Delicious noodles, appetizers, and soup varieties. Very airy and spaced out restaurant - service was friendly. The food is light but also healthy. Would definitely revisit.
We didnt even know this place was there but walking by we decided to check it out. We will definitely be back. The food was fresh and high quality and we cant wait to try some more menu items. Recommending to friends.
First time dining here. AC in this Asian fusion restaurant on a 35+Celcius day is very much appreciated. Very impressed with the cleanliness and the service. Ordered the Miso Sesame Ramen and the Thai Chicken. We were so excited stuffing our faces with the ramen that we forgot to snap pics of it. Ramen had lots of umami, and very yummy. The Thai chicken is so delicious. Highly recommended. We ll definitely return to this restaurant next time we re back in Kelowna. Thanks for the wonderful dining experience!
Food taste very average and not special, food is a tinkle little bit overpriced but its fine. Overall, decent restaurant but a little bit overrated.
Food was tasty and reasonably priced. Only reason it wasnt 5 stars is that food took a while to be served when I was the only person there, like a bit longer than what I would get on a busier day at a Thai restaurant
Excellent food and very courteous staff.
Had the vegetable yakisoba with tofu and it was delicious. Very happy to see some good vegan options available.
Went twice and good food but first time, they got our orders wrong but we didn t want to waste it and took it. Second time, we asked for take out container and lid fell on floor and lady picked it up and still gave it to us rather than get a new one. Wish she would have given a new one or washed it. Other than that, friendly staff and good food.
Food is pretty good. We especially like the prawn mayo and chicken karaage. Staff are super friendly. And dont forget to check out the cute little gift selection by the til.
Great food, super fresh. Really enjoy the Spicy coconut ramen and cant go wrong with combo B . Fast friendly service. Consistently very good. Parking: They have some spots right out front that are reserved for them. Kid-friendliness: Great service, very accommodating to having children.
Dined here over the weekend with my son for the first time. Very impressed with the freshness, quality and attention to detail with the dishes. Food was amazing and this has now become one of our favourite local restaurants. Looking forward to coming back and trying many other menu items
Seems like this place is trying to save money. Spring rolls, although tasty, we re barely filled. The chicken yakisoba noodles seemed to only have a combined half piece of chicken thigh and was very greasy.
this is by far my go to place. Food is amazing!!! Staff is amazing!!! All around a win!!!
Yummy. Combo b beef bowl with chicken karage
This is a fantastic little restaurant. The people who work there are amazing and so kind. I always have the spicy coconut chicken ramen and it is probably one of my favourite food items period (it might be one of the best out there). Every time I m in Kelowna I don t leave without having the ramen at least once. Drink deals are great too!! The crispy wontons are sooo good too! All the food is more than satisfactory :)
We ordered shrimp salad rolls to go and were quite disappointed with the flavour and lack of fillings. All lettuce, one shrimp and a couple of carrots. Really underwhelming quality. At least the peanut sauce was tasty!
Food is delicious! A little pricey, but I was surprised when I picked up my order that they threw in a few chicken wings for free. Nice touch. Would recommend!
The food is delicious - everything on the menu :) My favorite is the won ton ramen - could eat it every day. Beautifully served, this is really the gem of food in Kelowna
Amazing ramen
The food was delicious, served quickly, and the establishment was clean. Will definitely be back!
Ramen, karage, and prawn mayo are my absolute favorite. Best food in Kelowna!
I have to say this place blew me away. Firstly, the music in there was great. I often go to restaurants and the music is just horrendous. I often feel like pop culture is just been pushed down my throat but in here it was peaceful and nice. The portions were perfect and the price was just right. I got a curry dish that tasted better than most of the curry dishes I ve had in town from Indian restaurants. It was definitely a great restaurant and I will be stopping in again. God bless!
Most delicious karaage Ive ever had
Some of the best food Ive ever had, amazing atmosphere, super friendly owner. I ate here for the first time this week and was expecting your standard Asian food. As soon as I started eating though I was absolutely blown away. Definitely check this spot out if you havnt.
My go to for salad rolls. Love the peanut sauce
Great food and nice staff. Look forward to going back before I return home.
First time here gluten free food was great and staff friendly and polite
Very cute and delicious!
One of my favourite restaurants in Kelowna. High-quality, healthy eating. Friendly welcoming staff. Place is always spotless and quiet. Great value and my kids like the food, too.
The saddest beef rice bowl ever - didnt taste good at all.
Great service, food was pretty good.
The best fried chicken in Kelowna! The flavours at Soy are incredible. So much love put into their food and restaurant. I will continue to be a loyal client of Soy. <3
Fresh food that all tastes homemade and cooked with care. Nice setting and friendly service makes this place a gem in Pandosy village.
fire everything. best pork wonton in town . will be back
They have an amazing menu and really sweet staff
Always looking for good Asian food restaurants. This one is a gold mine. Food is really good. Good location. Clean restaurant. You can order ahead did pick up. Menu is online. Seriously, though, the food is good. Try this place out if youre looking for a new place to try.
Always very clean, tasty food prepared quickly. Perhaps not as sexy as some other places, but never disappoints.
Sesame ramen broth is just moderate compared to other ramen restaurant, but the chashu with broth is good collaboration. The two appys we ordered were good especially the prawn was amazing! Just one thing i had bad experience was i wish she d asked about cilantro when ordering foods.
Super tight menu, everything is delicious. Bonus points for having an adorable dining room and thee friendliest staff ever!!
Great ramen.
Hands down the best asian food Ive ate in Kelowna
Decent selection, good location, good customer service. Ive tried the ramen soup several times, consistently delicious! - they Closed early (which any business is entitled to do) no sign, and pretended they didnt see me out side trying to order take out
Unique food and atmosphere. The waiting staff are always so nice. Try the Japanese beef burger, you won t be disappointed!
The spicy coconut ramen is a must-try. The food was amazing!
Excellent and creative modern Japanese cuisine
Quaint atmosphere, the friendliest staff, and SUCH flavourfiul food! Its our new local spot.
Fabulous food from this small cozy Pan-asian restaurant. I usually get nervous when you see Vietnamese, Chinese and Japanese dishes all on the same menu. Often means none of it will be true to the genre or very good. Not true here! The salad rolls were as good as any Vietnamese spot. The wontons were outstanding, Ill be back just for those. The kaarage was crispy on the outside and tender and juicy inside. The deep fried prawn were treated to an excellent sauce. Spring rolls topped off our meal. All good, great service. It is a modest spot, not fancy but very welcoming.
Always outstanding food and service.
I have been there twice but the ramens are just bad! The pork shoulders dont taste like the Japanese style pork in a ramen and the broth is weird. Their ramens are westernised. Service is ok.
I ordered an Korean BBQ beef rice bowl which is 15 dollars. The portion of the rice bowl is 3:2:1, the rice:vegetables:beef. Only a few slices of beef costs 15 dollars. What a scam? What makes this worse is that it tasted terrible.
Fresh food the flavours are simple clean and delicious.
Their karaage is super great. Reminded me of the karaage I used to eat in Japan. Lots of flavour and very crispy. I usually do not enjoy fusion, but their creative dishes were very good.
It is actually quite a nice place. The owner is nice, the food is actually quite good... Im surprised... And it is hiding from the main road, kind of neat
Delicious!
really great place, impeccable service I gave 5 stars but I could give even more
Love this place, the salmon burger is my go to. Perfectly cooked crispy salmon, fresh/soft bun. Nice quiet atmosphere and the service it always very kind and respectfully
Good food. Nice service!
Loved all the food we had here. We had the appy platter and ohitashi to share and my bf and I each had the spicy coconut ramen. The ramen was out of this world delicious and came with a perfectly cooked hard boiled egg on top, and juicy shredded chicken breast. Really wowed me. My dad didnt like the chicken he was served in his stir fry but I thought it was delicious (turns out he doesnt like chicken thighs). I had a delicious plum wine with my meal. They were so friendly and accommodating. My bf forgot his hat and they stayed late to make sure that we got it back, even ran out of the restaurant as soon as I arrived to pick up so I didnt have to get out of my car. Make a point to go here and give them some love.
No complaints here. Good price for good food and one dish and Im stuffed! I would recommend for eats here but only on occasion.
Awesome little place! Amazing food. Everyone there is super nice, and it has an great atmosphere.
Food was a little pricey, but the quality was great and ambiance beautiful.
A fantastic little spot for lunch and dinner. Always consistently delicious food and friendly service. Very much worth a try. Youll be back.
Chicken karage, miso ramen (with chicken, not pork), and Korean beef burger are amazinggggg
Delicious fresh food. Friendly service. Really great ramen. My favorites are Combo B and the Spicy Coconut Ramen. Best chicken Karage I have ever had!
My familys favorite restaurant in Kelowna for fresh consistantly delicious food.
This place was a pleasant surprise. Its well decorated and very cute. The food was great. Even my very picky son liked his meal and mine. Its a small place, probably not the best place to bring a loudish 10 month old (oops) but it was really good. I hope to go back when my youngest is a little less loud.
Excellent service and the food as well as presentation was exceptional. Will definitely be back.
Had the coconut chicken ramen. I highly recommend it! Homemade broths and high quality noodles.. great service as well.
Combo A is amazing!
Ive been going here since it opened. Although I no longer live in kelowna, I always grab lunch here when Im back for a visit. Their food is consistently fresh and delicious. The staff is also lovely. One of my favorite spots.
Great food and service
Excellent food, beautifully presented, reasonably priced, very inviting place, full of light and soft colors, fantastic staff. Great place for lunch or dinner.
Best food ever. I put this place to my most favorite
Little hole in the wall, off the beaten path type restaurant with great food!! The prawn appetizer is to die for!!
Everything Ive had here is delicious. Ramen is great. Teriyaki bowl is great. Highly recommend.
Ive been here twice and tried 3 different types of ramen, the springrolls, the karaage, and a beef rice bowl. Overall, the food isnt bad, but its not amazing either. I thought that the karaage was a little too dry, the springrolls a little too greasy, the ramen a little too salty and I dont love those noodles. Given the other options in the area, I dont see myself going here again.
A gem of a place. Varied and flavourful Asian fusion. Grilled Thai-style chicken, Asian coleslaw, and the chilled spinach appetizer are standouts. The friendly Japanese-born proprietor is a fine host and a skilled chef. Lovely, cheeeful ambience too.
Always amazing food atmosphere and staff ...5 stars arent enough!
Decent ramen
Everything on the menu is delicious - I especially enjoy the Chicken Karaage and Wonton Ramen. The atmosphere is light and airy, casual but stylish. They also have a nice selection of drinks. This is genuine Asian food but curated nicely for the Kelowna audience who may be less familiar with Asian food than their coastal neighbors. There are a number of nice restaurants on Pandosy but I would recommend this one first.
Been here twice. The soups/ramen are delicious. Not spicy at all but really tasty and stand up well to being delivered. Other menu items kind of pricey. Alcohol also available so a nice spot to meet a friend for a catch up.
Great food! Very small restaurant but the service and food were both excellent!
Food was great. Service was alittle slow but it was worth it
This my most favourite ramen place whenever I am in Kelowna!!
Great place foods amazing and really good pricing great service
Love it ! The food is fabulous. Also great for take out. You cant go there without ordering the Prawns Mayo and the Salmon cake off the appetizer list-trust me!!! They also have a liquor license. AND a loyalty card. Everytime you go and you order over $10 worth of food, you get a stamp. Once you have 10 stamps, you get $10 off your next order.
Good food but parking is hard to find as lot not big , maybe alright as take away?
Ive only tried two items so far, the Thai coconut curry ramen soup and the miso sesame ramen soup. The spicy coconut ramen here is absolutely amazing! It is the perfect balance of spicy, sweet, tangy and salty. The noodles have a great texture. The miso sesame ramen was good as well, but I prefer bold flavours and it doesnt pack the flavour-bomb of the curry ramen. Still really good if you like a more traditional ramen. The staff are always polite. My biggest issue is that they arent open later to satisfy my nighttime noodle cravings!
Great food and staff... and good beer
The food here is amazing! One of my favourite places to eat in Kelowna
Always live going here. Great atmosphere, wonderful food--gluten & vegetarian options- and affordable! Sounds strange but try the mayo with fries
Husband enjoyed an in house made appetizers platter. I had a Thai style coconut soup. Both delicious! Lots of parking, very good service and clean restroom.
The restaurant has great food and service. However the parking is terrible. Ensure to read the small print signs very carefully as a parking ticket around this restaurant is $99.75.
Cozy spot, delicious food, great value!
Great spot for lunch!
Great food reasonable price cute atmosphere
Good, clean.
Quality of food and service were both quite good. I personally found this food a bit bland but then it has a Japanese bent to the cooking which is not as spicy has many Asian Foods are.
Very very clean, great service. Food is unreal. Recommend beef burger Definitely coming back
Amazing place, wish I knew about it sooner. Waitress was awesome, service was quick and you can eat off the floor thats how clean it is. Probably one of the best burgers Ive had, wings were fresh and the fries were unreal. 5/5
This place combines Korean, Japanese, and Chinese food, and gives it a western twist. And boy is it delicious! My absolute favorite is the Korean BBQ burger, which I get regular cravings for and is just as good as it sounds! So good. Just super!
Can we talk about the Korea BBQ rice bowl? Its my favourite meal in kelowna and I get weekly cravings. Great vibe, quiet and clean.
My friend ordered spicy coconut ramen...no meat, extra veggies . It was delivered with chicken and regular veggies. No big deal. Taken back by the server . But less than a minute later the server returned with what seemed to be the same bowl (drippings on the side of the bowl). A bunch of veggies topped it. But when digging through, 4 pieces of chicken were found. Did they try to dig it out of the same bowl? Needless to say, she refused to eat it. The server said she would offer a reduced price for it. After some back and forth between the server and the owner, they dropped the charge of her meal completely. I have eaten here in the past and have enjoyed their food. What surprises me the most is their response to the situation. Disappointing ...
Such an amazing menu I love the food . And the staff are so friendly. Dine in or take out!
Since moving into the neighbourhood we have tried both lunch and dinner and have never been disappointed. The meals are excellent and they offer very generous servings. Serving staff are always very cheerful and attentive. Highly recommended!
We had an amazing lunch! Quick service, super yummy food and was very pleased with the price
Very authentic and cute little restaurant. Food is incredible and the atmosphere is lovely!
Have ordered take out from here several times (just easier with kids) and the food is always excellent, great flavours and the staff is very friendly and courteous. Highly recommend this place.
Nice quiet little restaurant tucked in behind south Pandosy . Friendly staff, excellent food.
Friendly service and delicious ramen! The place is a cute and comfy environment. Super happy with the experience!
Great food and service. Interesting menu.
Great food and better service. Highly recommended.
At last I have found somewhere in Kelowna that serves Asian food with lots of flavour and using super fresh ingredients. I started with the prawn mayo, moved on to the Veg Soba salad and finished with the tofu cheesecake. Every mouthful was filled with flavour. Lots of options for vegetarians. Very decent sized portions and service was perfect. Cannot fault any of my experience. I have paid a lot more elsewhere, for far less! My partner had the freshly made fish cakes and the best french fries in town (which I didnt expect from an Asian fusion restaurant!). Sure to become a firm favourite - only wish I had discovered it sooner!!
Amazing service and delicious food! 10/10 recommend!
Prawn mayo is a definite. Such a unique and yummy place with a few quite healthy yet satisfying dishes
Excellent service and fresh food served hot.
Awesome fresh food and really attentive servers. I would highly recommend this place.
The bahn mi sandwich was tasty and the fries were crispy and fresh. I liked seeing the local artwork and hand made jewelry for sale. I am also a fan of the living plants on each table.
This place has to be one of the best kept secrets in town. The skill of the chef is far beyond what you d expect based on their prices. The dishes are unique and inspired (especially the salmon burger!) and the restaurant is clean, modern and warm. The service is friendly and knowledgeable. Go!
really nice place
Delicious food. Really good salads and the best fries Ive had in Kelowna gluten free options too
Food was okay service was extremely slow. Our friends had almost finished eating by time we got our food. Not acceptable when we all ordered at the same time
Amazing bbq Korean beef burger.
Nothing quite up to standard. Thai fried rice, rice is salty and cold too much shredded lettuce. shrimp is tiny and not fresh . Wonton Ramen and wonton is still cold inside. Felt tricked by online review!
Its a quaint, fantastic little restaurant. The food was very good, and I would definitely go again for it. Parking was a little bit tedious due to a lack of it, but that shouldnt deter anyone from trying it out.
Awesome food, fresh and delicious!
Stellar food. Immaculate service. The Salmon Burger is likely the best burger in the Okanagan. Go half and half for amazing fries and a tasty salad.
I love this place at lunch. The Asian Coleslaw is amazing! They have nice combos so you can try different things. The staff are very lovely as well.
Excellent service, great food. Were coming back.
Excellent! Top notch! Quality food and quality service in a simple setting. Very high reommend
Great little cozy place with pretty tasty Japanese and all sorts of fusion. Great miso sesame Raman , and good Korean BBQ rice. The pork in the Raman a little dry but quite lean. The quality of food is very high, good in Toronto standard.
We stumbled on this place when our favourite restaurant was too full and WOW, we loved Soy right away. Very, very good food, great service and great prices too. How lucky that we didnt get a table at the other place ;-)
