5-3045 Tutt St, Kelowna, BC V1Y 2H4, Canada
Neighborhood wine & share plate restaurant. Local organic share plates, pasta, house made everything! Intimate setting, owner operated. No Take Out or Delivery. By Reservation Only accepted up to 30 days prior to visiting. Maximum table size 6. Hours may vary, last reservation 7:45pm.
The previous comments about small, quaint, delightful, friendly, remarkable - all are applicable. Food was pretty amazing and really enjoyable, served in a true tapas fashion. Wine selection was inspiring and our choice was delicious. We are coming back soon! They do not have an online booking tool but phone or email works. Also enjoyed talking about our travels and sharing pictures with our hosts.
The most amazing dinner with fresh ingredients and so much flavour! The best cauliflower I have ever had. Everything was delicious. 10/10! Can’t wait to go back
Second visit. Confirms it’s my favourite restaurant in Kelowna. The food is literally garden fresh, seasonal and very flavourful. Perfect preparation, unique and absolutely delicious. Excellent wine pairings to match. The owners are friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is very intimate and small which is lovely, but be sure to make a reservation as you might not get in otherwise. I can’t recommend this local place enough and am dreaming about when I can return. It’s top tier, but without the fussy pretentiousness that often comes with that. Do your tastebuds a favour and go!
This place is an absolute gem. Both owners were there. Small intimate place but not super formal. Gnocchi was one of the best dishes I’ve ever had, tasty hand selected wine, and everything is no-spray farm/garden fresh! Would recommend to anyone looking to share a meal with family or friends!!
I recently visited Tutt Tapas with a vegan friend, and we had an amazing time! My friend loved the vegan gnocchi—she said it was one of the best she's ever had. I went for the seafood pasta, and it was absolutely delicious. The owner and chef were super nice and made us feel really welcome. It was the perfect spot to catch up with my friend and just relax. I highly recommend!
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 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 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!
Great food and great services, Rita is best!
food tasted good but portion sizes are HALF of what they should be. way overpriced for the portion sizes it was shocking how small they were for that price. food was 8/10. value was 1/10
Every time I visit Kelowna I drop by Tutt St Tapas for a delicious meal and welcoming atmosphere. Rita and Jason do a wonderful job making the meal a wonderful experience. The chef is outstanding. Recommend TST highly.
This was our best meal on this trip to Kelowna hands down. The food was fresh, delicious, and all made to order. Very small resturaunt with no more than 10 small tables. Service was excellent. This will now be a staple of our visits here each year. The proscuitto flatbread was to die for. Parking: Small free parking lot for the little shopping plaza
Disclaimer-it s a long one. Well had high hopes for good Spanish tapas. Owner was kind enough to get us a table as soon as a table paid and left, which we appreciated. Wine selection is great and started with a wonderful bottle of pinot grigio. Well except for dessert, that was the end of anything good. Started with hummus, dish came with carrot and apple sticks, a flavourless hummus and warm flat bread, it literally looked something you would serve a 5 year old for lunch. We didn t finish it, and it sat at the end of the table for the remainder of the meal. Next was veggie risotto balls, while they had a good flavour, the what was suppose to be a formed ball, fell apart as the fork touched it and tried to get to my mouth, would have been a great vegetable risotto, not ball. Next was seafood cakes, yikes! texture and flavour was awful, putting mashed potato with chopped up seafood in my mouth was not appealing. Now hummus still sitting on table, not touched, gone through 3 dishes and the owner, never asked us if we were enjoying any of the food. Fourth dish was gnocchi with brown butter, husband thought it was ok, I did not enjoy tiny pieces of mushy gnocchi soaked in brown butter. Last was the spinach and mushroom empanadas, which were good, but I was already turned off from everything else, still no inquiry from the owner who cleared every dish, if anything was good, and finally took the hummus dish away. The only reason I ordered dessert was because I had seen desserts come out for another table and they looked good, ordered pecan pie with caramel sea salt ice cream, and it was delicious! Would I go back, for wine and dessert absolutely, for food you would have to make me eat at gun point.
Went here for our anniversary! It was a very different experience loved the food and the owners
Call to see if they were open..cause sometimes open sometimes closed..called and it was open @7:35pm ..says they are open till 930? but was told over the phone they were winding down?! 2 hours before your closing time? Really? I guess I ll take my money elsewhere
We were suggested this place for a dinner as I ve had family dine here before. We re getting married on September and wanted to have a meal with some of our friends and family after our rehearsal. I emailed to inquire about setting that up, was told they didn t feel comfortable taking our reservation. There was no conversation, questions, nothing. Very shocked and disappointed with the customer service and declining business with no good reason or conversation. Then responds with a PERSONAL e-mail thread, wherein I only got an explanation AFTER I wrote a review. Super professional people.
Delicious food , amazing personalized service.
The perfect setting to share an evening of flavorful morsals and great conversation. Thank you Rita and Skye. Have a Wonderful Christmas.
Its been way too long since I enjoyed a meal at a restaurant. Thanks Rita for a great meal, great atmosphere at a local restaurant owned by locals.
We had such a lovely dinner here last night! The food was absolutely delicious and recommended wine pairings were excellent! You must also try their desserts as well if you go which were so good as well. We had such a great experience and felt very welcomed. Will definitely be coming back and highly recommend!
Great atmosphere, staff/owners are phenomenal
Amazing! Have been wanting to go for awhile and finally made it. Great wine recommendation and the food was delicious. Shared a salad, pasta and flatbread. We ll be back!
This is the best kept secret of the Okanagan! Absolutely incredible, kind service, you feel like you re in their home sharing a meal with the owners! The food is exceptional, so fresh, so local and so delicious. The wine list is local and features some of the best! And the dessert . Out of this WORLD! Truly my fave spot in my 13 years in Kelowna
Absolutely the best place in Kelowna. One of those hidden gems. My wife and I can not get enough of this place. Rita and the gang knock it out of the park.
Wonderful, just wonderful! Fresh, locally sourced products make their menu unlike anything else you will experience. Great wines to also enjoy with your meal. And just have to love the personal service provided by Rita! Parking: Parking is great in the lot directly in front of the restaurant.
Wonderful eating experience. Rita was super helpful explaining everything on the menu. Awesome that it is all locally sourced. The food itself was just spectacular. Amazing place.
Great atmosphere, very intimate and inviting. The service and food were excellent.
We visited TST on our last day of vacation with some friends, and what a great way to end our stay in Kelowna. The hosts were very friendly and helpful, and the food was absolutely stellar. Such a beautiful combination of flavours and ingredients in each dish. I wholeheartedly recommend Tutt Street Tapas. Its a small, intimate place, so make sure to reserve ahead of time. Vegetarian options: Although we are not vegetarian, our friends who were with us are vegetarian and raved about the food.
Great intimate environment and amazing hosts.
Food was so good and full of taste. Great wine and even greater service! If you want to skip burgers and plates of neat, ho there!!!!
We dined here when when we were in Kelowna. Food, service were excellent and will definitely return when we re back in Kelowna.
Be sure to eat gnocchi! Although the quantity is not large, you can enjoy the best umami taste. There are only a few tables, so I recommend making a reservation. We dont answer phone calls very often, so please make a reservation by email.
Lovely place great piping hot food Very friendly owners (Visiting from the UK ) Food : 5/5
Shared all the plates with my husband so we could try as much as possible and all of it was beautiful food! Flavour and textures were excellent! Cute little place with lovely decor.
Love the food (best gnocchi ever!), love the owners, love the atmosphere. This is what it means to find a gem. You want to let the world know, but part of you wants to selfishly keep it secret.
We all loved this place. The food was so fresh and creative. The owners were very welcoming and knowledgeable. We ordered most items on the menu and everything was 10/10. We will definitely be returning.
We had a lovely dinner here for my husbands birthday this past weekend and I can t rave enough about the whole experience. The food was all so fresh tasting and delicious. We ordered a bunch of different plates and everything was so good. Definitely one of the most enjoyable experiences at a kelowna restaurant. Loved the atmosphere and the owners are such sweet people! Can t wait to come back and dine here again soon. 10/10
A hidden gem in Kelowna.. the food is so delicious and tastes very fresh
This is a really warm and inviting place for authentic and local food & wine! We enjoyed a bottle from Oliver BC that I d never tried before, and beets from a farm that were dug up the same day! Very knowable and kind owners. I would return again for sure.
This was the best dining experience we have ever had. The owners knowledge of wine is unmatched and she pairs dishes perfectly. Simple, well executed menu. Total gem of a place to eat.
Lovely little spot with amazing food and great wine choices. Parking: Parking is right in front in the square.
Awesome. Like being welcomed into someone s home. Treated like old Friends and served delicious tapas and wine. We will be regulars.
Incredible food - fresh and local. Very friendly hosts. Greeted us by name at the door. Warm and welcoming atmosphere as a couple from out of town. Highly recommended.
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.
Amazing experience. Great food and wine. Super friendly owners!
Great menu! Wonderful service!
Today, August 7, 2022: We returned to eat with Rita and Jason again. This is a restaurant with community, I think Rita and Jason know everyone having dinner. They remembered us, the two american golf addicts, who love good food and wonderful service. Dinner was lovely, the wine recommended by Rita was less expensive than the one I was considering, and it too was wonderful. See you guys next year. (10 months ago: Rita is a pure pleasure.The whole evening was just so relaxing. It is the service that makes a place to which you want to return! The risotto balls were so light and tasty, actually I thought the best part of the meal. But everything else was well worth the trip. Nice little wine list also. Take note so much of the dinner comes out of their garden. See you next year Rita.0
Very tasty food. We like small, local owned business. The portions were not huge for the price, but it was of high quality, so it offset this fact.
Perfect ! Food was delicious, lovely variety of menu. Attentive and friendly service. Pleasant and intimate atmosphere. a lovely evening for our anniversary.
Run, dont walk to try this place out! Delicious, fresh and creative dishes served up with wonderful wine selections. From start to finish this was a wonderful dining experience. I love the use of local ingredients in every dish. Kelowna is lucky to have this place!
This is absolutely our favorite restaurant and the highlight of each visit to Kelowna! Rita creates the most amazing bites with the freshest ingredients many of which are cared for by her and Jason in their garden. Each dish makes you think you ve had the best bite until the next one comes! Not only is the food outstanding, the warmth and friendliness from Rita and Jason create such a wonderful feeling in their intimate restaurant. If you re lucky enough to dine here, you will love it too!
Rita was most accommodating! We had a group of 17 people and she gladly took our reservation and trusted that we would show! The food menu and wine menu were amZing! Excellent experience !! Dietary restrictions: Lots of Gluten free options
AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING. The food, the atmosphere, the wine utter perfection !!! Can not fault my dining experience. Every dish was outstanding with the freshest ingredients. Do yourself a favour and book in asap. Oh and have the wine from Tuscany
This restaurant is a must when visiting Kelowna! Food is amazing and the staff superb!
Amazing delicious creative sharing plates that delight the taste buds along with a fantastic wine list. Locally grown and sourced ingredients made for a memorable dinner out. Highly recommend!!
I loved this restaurant! The couple who owns it pour their hearts into their food and it shows. It is such a hidden gem and I can t wait to return!!
An adorable small neighbourhood spot. Good was just amazing, especially the flat breads. The crispy spelt crust is the best Ive ever had. And the cauliflower fish wax spectacular. We will be regulars there. Vegetarian options: Have a few vegetarian items.
Amazing place! The food was delicious. Elevated Italian cuisine. My fiancé and I went for our anniversay dinner and ended up staying for hours just having some wine and enjoying the food. The owners were great and gave us some reccomendations for our upcoming trip to Italy. Would definitely reccomend for a nice date night out :)
Love it here, always stop in when we are in town. Great service!
A great little local spot supporting local wineries and food producers, been twice and highly recommend it. We only went last time for a quick catch-up-chat, a couple glasses of wine and some nibbles and ended up eating far too much which led to more wine than we should have had with work the next morning. The staff know eveything about the local wineries too and were far to good with their recommendations!
This places seems very good and I would like to get here soon ...........................................................oswgsigsydodksgsoddyossyete9e9e592859eoyeososoye96e69eodogd95e58eoteyos9te85eedodyododofydyor great place
A wildly terrific little gem in our culinary tapestry. Great food, wines and people make this a must visit and repeat.
We love everything!It was our first time but we definitely go back.
I have food allergies & a sensitive tummy but Rita and the team ensured all I ate was not only accommodating my allergies but so delicious, fresh and healthy. The service was friendly and kept our safety top of mind.
Born and raised in Kelowna and this is the BEST restaurant we have in town. The service is above and beyond. The food is thoughtful, locally sourced and delicious!! It is an intimate space, not a place for a weekend blow-up. If you love wine, paired with great food and served with care this is it! We are so lucky!!
Hidden gem in Kelowna Tucked back from the water, you find this unassuming little restaurant in a strip mall. The owner is warm and welcoming and the ambiance is romantic and low key. The menu was nice and I loved the wine bar feel. Kelowna needs more places like this!! Will definitely be back and will recommend to others for a night out. Thanks Rita!
Tutt Street Tapas is an absolute favorite of ours. The cuisine is farm-to-table fresh and delicious! The atmosphere is intimate and beautiful. Rita offers a welcoming and friendly experience each and every time! We love it and highly recommend dining at Tutt Street Tapas!
Great experience and service. Very intimate and enjoyable experience. Will be back again to enjoy more delicious fresh food and wine.
There s nothing more I can add to as all the nicest things have already been mentioned. I now understand why this is a five star! 5-stars definitely!
Great food small intimate venue.
Amazing restaurant, amazing food and wine selection. Very nice atmosphere and amazing owners. An absolute must go
Rita and Jason are friendly and passionate and gives us a warm and inviting experience. The dishes are delicious and all homemade with local and organic ingredients. The wine list is great with lots of local wines. We returned there two days later, considering how nice it was. Thank you!
Beautiful experience! Food was well executed. Friendly owners who work hard at ensuring their guests have a memorable experience. The cashew Alfredo pasta special and brown butter gnocchi were delicious.
The wine selection, the food and the service was all amazing.
Really excellent food and such a cute little restaurant. I highly recommend to anyone looking for classy small bites and tapas.
All good things must come to an end. Words can t describe how great the food and wine choices (suggested by the server) were amazing. Thanks for the phenomenal food and drinks all :D.
Great wines and the flatbread is absolutely amazing. This place is a gem!
Wonderful experience. The 5 tapas we ordered were amazing, and the Borolo wine paring was exceptional. The hosts made the night an evening to remember. Great food, awesome service.
Amazing, highly recommend.
Wow!!!! All the tapas were outta this world in taste! Also the wine selection is second to none! Youre doing yourself a disservice by not visiting here.
Every once in a while you find a restaurant that s quiet, intimate and, most importantly, consistent. That is Tutt Street Tapas. Great food. Personal service. And wines that just fit the menu. Plus they always seem to have some amazing off-list wines hiding in the rack! Oh, and the BrocKale Cakes. Love this place!
Love Tutt Street Tapas! The food is always fresh and creative, with a focus on local, and there are great options for vegetarian and vegan. The wine list is smart and thoughtful and the atmosphere is casual but warm, and Rita makes everyone feel like they ve been invited in person. This place has the feel of a neighbourhood secret but with way better food. :-)
The food is always impressive! Rita and her staff are at the top of their game and willing to modify a dish to fit your tastes. We recommend Tutt Street Tapas & Wine to everyone - especially our vegan and vegitarian friends.
Fabulous menu! So delicious! Very much enjoyed the atmosphere and service.
Love fresh, innovative food made with locally sourced ingredients? Love hard to find wines by the bottle and the glass? Want to support locally owned and operated establishments in these difficult times? Then you need to try Tutt Street Tapas. My partner and I have been dining at Tutt Street Tapas since it opened. The owner is extremely knowledgeable about wines and has personal connections with many winemakers and winery owners (local and international). Shes just as passionate about food and works hard to source local, organic ingredients, such as produce from small farms and orchards in the Valley, cheese and ethical meats from nearby producers. Even the flour for the house made breads is made from locally milled organic grains! As for food style, think Italian with a twist (e.g. Butternut squash gnocchi, seasonally inspired flat breads, veggie specials to die for, and the best hummus Ive ever tasted). Did I mention the handmade ice cream? It ranks right up there with the Salt & Straw in Portland. Its that good. I really cant say enough about this small, local gem of a restaurant. If you havent been there yet, give it a try. You wont be disappointed!
Tutt Street tapas and Wine bar is basically my home away from home. I have been going there for a year and a half to two years and every time it is a Awakening to all the senses. The food the wine and the people I have met there have been a big part of my life. Every time I leave and walk home I have a smile on my face. But the one person that has made all this come together is the owner Rita. Rita is very personable and introduces the customers to each other and therefore it becomes much more of a dining experience.
Cant say enough about this little gem. We love the food, the ambiance, the wine, oh ya, the wine, ha ha and the Owners are just awesome. It is our go-to spot for sure!
Fabulous food, cozy setting and fantastic local wine! Rita and her staff do a great job providing a personal, yet affordable, dining experience that offers you creative and delicious tapas inspired from locally grown fresh veggies and herbs. The Seafood cakes are incredible and the Bite Me Salad tastes like summertime! Thank you for a lovely evening..we will definitely be back!
Tutt Street is a staple in our lives in Kelowna ever since it opened. Located in a quiet little corner in Mission District Tutt Street offers great tapas and wine, whether you just want to have a glass and tapas or a full meal deal. They pride themselves in local seasonal fare and promote regional wines along with Italian vintages. Rita is all around host, chef, and proprietor of this quaint establishment that provides you with great ambience, service and food loves to talk about the wines on the menu which were all hand picked based first hand knowledge. Rita and her husband Jason have visited numerous wineries around the globe and it s what makes this place special as you can order bottles and a great selection by the glass. Go and go again, never disappointing! Always fresh, relaxing, great food and service and ask about the wines you will learn something every time!
Great little spot tucked away on Tutt Street. Always enjoy stopping in for Wine & Tapas
Fantastic little Tapas bar! Such nice owners! Such great food! Exquisite. We will be repeat customers. Thank you!
Delicious food! Great selection of small plates, perfect for sharing or to have a couple on your own. Excellent wine list as well, for both Old and New World. Fun, welcoming decor, colorful artwork.
So much fun. The best service and the food was amazing as well. Highly recommend and we will be back.
Great food and atmosphere
Love this local hangout. Wino Wednesdays are the best!
Great space with a good wine list and a nice variety of food. Worth checking out.
Wow, l just enjoyed THE Freshest , MOST Delicious salad last night at this cozy little restaurant. Tastiest food selections.Warm atmosphere.Friendly, down to earth service! Great place to meet up if youre looking for an intimate setting with close friends or even a quiet place to conduct a business meeting. Thanks Rita for making the evening so lovely.
Hidden gem!!! On Tutt street in the Mission. Amazing wine and tapas. Happy hour 4 to 530 is a perfect way to start the evening!!! Small and quaint atmosphere..
Rita & Jason provide us with a little taste of Italy & the wine is exceptional!
Amazing food and atmosphere
The best tapas & wine bar ever! Great atmosphere, amazing hosts and delicious food. I highly recommend!
