If I could give this place more than five stars, I absolutely would. I'm a huge foodie from…read moreHouston, Texas, and I was genuinely blown away by everything we tried. The atmosphere was incredible, the service was outstanding, and happy hour was 100% worth it. We ordered the spicy garlic edamame, shrimp dumplings, pork tacos, pierogis, and the spicy chicken sandwich with yam fries and onion rings. Every single dish was packed with flavor and exceeded our expectations. I normally don't like coleslaw, but even that was fantastic. It complemented the spicy chicken sandwich perfectly and tied all the flavors together. A special shoutout to our server, Matt, who was working behind the bar. His recommendations were spot-on, and he was friendly, attentive, and made the entire experience even better. Needless to say, whenever possible, this will be one of my first choices. I couldn't recommend it more.

The menu is very large and is hard to decide because you will want all of it. The food was magnificent and honestly very fresh and hot. The wait was a little long, but it was worth it in every way.

Overall, I would come back to this Fine Establishment, when i am in Penticton again.

Ambience was okay, I wanted something like a diner, but it was neither a diner nor a restaurant. The food felt like out of a can, tasted really bad. Nothing seemed fresh; from Alfredo sauce to humus to tofu, mushroom soup, chicken sandwich. Chicken and tofu felt rubbery, mushrooms soup was straight out of a can. Everything we ate felt like it was processed food. We really liked the mango and guava juice. I paid $106 including tips for 2 adults and 2 children under 8. I would not go back.

We went to Terry's one late Wednesday afternoon for wings for only $4.99/pound. They offered a good selection of breaded (only) wet & dry flavors. We chose Caesar Parmesan, Honey Garlic, Hotty-Yaki and Salt & Pepper. The S&P was light on spices and needed more,, the CP was very saucy and the other two were delicious. The atmosphere was laid back and quiet for that time as the restaurant was not very busy. The service, I.e. Henry, was very attentive. The four servings of wings came out to ~$20, what a deal!!! I strongly recommend this restaurant for afternoon and evening dining. It's a real bargain with delicious options on the menu.

Inside offered counter-style ordering while outside appeared to have table service. Cute spot with a mom-n-pop deli feel to it. All of the food appeared to be scratch made upon ordering. Wife and I shared two sandwiches...their Bench Club and also a chicken panini. The club featured sliced turkey, crisp bacon, Canadian smoked cheddar, avocado, lettuce and tomato on grilled multi-grain bread. The panini was pressed and grilled, served with chicken breast, basil pesto mayo, melted cheese and a house-made apple chutney on ciabatta bread. Both were hearty, filling and delicious. Timing was right, service prompt and a solid meal before our next car adventure.

Billy's Family Restaurant sits on the outskirts of Penticton, occupying a piece of culinary real…read moreestate that has less to do with excellence and more to do with geography. It's the kind of place that benefits immensely from being one of the few dining options around. Travelers passing through, road-weary families, truckers, and anyone needing a pit stop before another stretch of highway inevitably find themselves pulling into the parking lot. The menu won't surprise you. Nobody is shaving truffles over handmade pasta or firing artisan pizzas from a wood-burning oven. What you'll find instead is a familiar catalogue of diner classics: meat and potatoes, burgers, sandwiches, and breakfast standards that haven't changed much since the days when smoking sections were still a thing. Portions arrive with unapologetic enthusiasm. The kitchen seems to subscribe to the philosophy that if some is good, more is better. Plates are loaded with the sort of hearty, fat-forward comfort food that could fuel a long-haul trucker through the Rockies. Whether that's a blessing or a warning depends entirely on your relationship with cholesterol. My arteries were filing formal complaints before I finished reading the menu. To be fair, Billy's isn't trying to reinvent dining. It knows exactly what it is: a roadside restaurant serving dependable, uncomplicated food to hungry people who need a meal more than an experience. The breakfast offerings are substantial, the coffee flows freely, and nobody is pretending this is a destination restaurant. Overall, Billy's is fine for what it is--a practical stop rather than a memorable one. If you're about to embark on a five-hour drive back to civilization, there's something reassuring about a hot breakfast and a full tank of calories. Just don't come looking for culinary inspiration. Come because you're hungry, you're passing through, and Billy's happens to be there. Cheers.

It has a great theme with the wooden spoons everywhere, cool old tin panels in the ceiling as well as the burlap bags. You order at the counter, pay and get your numbered wooden spoons which you place in a glass milk carton at the table you choose while awaiting your food. There is plenty of brick inside the restaurant which is always something I like. The woman who took or order said that the owner had bought the place behind them and they were blowing out the wall in between the two establishments so the kitchen can service two places. Sounds good right? The problem we had was that the breakfasts we got were not hot, I mean barely warm. My sunny up eggs were barely done, still alot of clear in the whites. My two halves of toast were put together, butter to butter. The second pieces together for my entire meal I was going to put marmalade on after I had finished all but them. The butter had not even melted into the toast, it was still whole butter. Everything tasted quite good, but it has to be hot. We would certainly return, but it fell just short of the mark. Too bad!
