We were seated…read moreupstairs, where we loved the lush plant walls and the stunning "evil eye" mural (a classic Turkish touch that gives the space a super cool Palm Beach/coastal chic vibe!). Elma is built for sharing, and we leaned heavily into dishes with sweeter, fruit-forward profiles that turned out to be absolute hits: - Spreads: We tried both the Girit and Muhammara dips, with the Girit being our favorite for its creamy texture and unique flavor profile. - Starters & Mains: The charcoal-grilled octopus was cooked to perfection, the sea bass came with an incredible green sauce, and the Elma pide had amazing cheese pulls paired with a lovely truffle honey. The chicken shish with apricot glaze and the lamb kebab were standouts, but my absolute favorite dish was the slow-cooked lamb shank with its sweet fig glaze. - Dessert: We finished with the Laz Börek cannoli. Using crispy, light phyllo instead of a traditional fried tube was a clever twist, though it can get a bit messy to eat with your hands! The affogato looked amazing too, though we were too full to try it. A quick note for larger groups: We were a group of 10+, and because online reservations cap at 6 people, getting two tables placed together took a bit of back-and-forth friction. Minor logistics aside, the flavors were top-tier, and the setting on the lake can't be beat. Highly recommend!

Prior to visiting Penticton, I had done some research: what attractions to see, what events to do,…read moreand where to dine. Since my kid and I love Greek food, Theo's was definitely on my list, if we had the chance, to have dinner here one night. Wow, what a marvelous restaurant! The restaurant exterior is unassuming but wow, inside, the decor is fabulous! We couldn't decide where to sit as every area inside was so picturesque and felt so intimate. Ultimately, we chose to sit in the front covered patio area. It felt like a little courtyard and our table was located a corner under a REAL grape tree. With hanging grapes! A small water-fountain gurgled behind us. We truly felt whisked away to some faraway Greek island. The menu was very large, with SO many dishes and platters to cheese from. We weren't starving, so we decided to share the moussaka (and hopefully save room for dessert!). Their cocktail menu looked fabulous, too, but we really wanted to save our appetite for the entree. (We've learned our lesson in the past, not to over-order!). When the moussaka arrived, the portion was very ample, and it was perfect to split in half. And we both agreed: it was probably the BEST moussaka we had ever had. Seriously, perfectly cooked, deliciously seasoned, perfect ratio of all the individual ingredients, just DELICIOUS and perfect. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! My kid loved the accompanying potatoes and carrots and lemony rice too, but I was too full from the main meal. And unfortunately, we were too full for dessert. Our server was lovely and attentive. My kid and I agreed we definitely will come back here when we next visit Penticton. I think this was the best Greek restaurant we've ever been to!

The lighting and decor was very modern, trendy, and intimate, with spacious enough seating to be comfortable. The food.. was divine. Hot, fresh, vibrant, and clearly made with love. For the price it was a good deal, as well - we ordered the Dinner for 2, for around 50$, which came with 4 pieces of tandoori chicken, some rice, some hot naan, butter chicken, Chana masala, and dessert. They gave us a choice of rice pudding or gulab jamun, and let us have one of each! The naan was fresh, hot, crisp, and delicious, while being soft and buttery. The butter chicken was smooth, with a decent amount of chicken pieces, without bone, and a mild flavour one would expect. The channa masala was flavourful, cooked perfectly, and had a nice kick to it. The rice was flavoured and seasoned with turmeric and carrot slices making it so pretty and so aromatic at the same time. The tandoori chicken was wetter than I'm used to, due to the marinade being cooked with the chicken, but my gosh was it flavourful! We got it medium spice and it was just perfection. Not too spicy but hot enough, and just the right seasoning to be delicious through and through. The rice pudding was cool and decent, and the gulab Jamun was hot and absolutely fire! 10/10, will definitely go here again next time we visit Osoyoos. It's a no brainer!

It's such a family friendly gem. We ordered some calamari to start with, and decided to try their platter for the variety. The dinner started with some fresh Greek salad, followed by the home made bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. My daughter loved them, and had to ask for more. When the platter came, we couldn't believe how big it was. It included mousaka which is ground beef cooked with mash tomatoes and eggplant, chicken and beef souvlaki, dolmathes, spanakopita, tiropita, rice pilaf, roast potatoes, tzatziki , hummus, and pita bread. I have to say this portion can be shared amount three people at least. The flavor is pretty authentic and meat are cooked at the right temperature. I know a lot of people are skeptical about family dining places. However, this place made me feel safe and comfortable. I would recommend anyone with a large family to come and visit.

The inside is spacious with plenty of tables. Our server wasn't talkative but came by several times to refill ones to refill our waters. The menu is typical Indian fare but we were here to try their lunch specials (available until 2:30pm). Their dinner special ($32.95 for 2) seems like a great deal. We were asked how spicy we wanted our meal (we opted for medium). - Aloo gobi adraki ($9.95) - more of a home style, comforting take on aloo gobi. Plenty of rice and the naan (sprinkled with parsley) was fresh. - Lamb saag ($11.95) - it's an extra $1.00 to substitute for lamb/beef but totally worth it. Lamb was tender and included a couple of chunks. Satisfying, tasty eats at Lachi. Will be back for more next time we're in town.
