“Absolutly fabulous! Fantastic customer service, delicious food, and the drinks... - amazing combinations and choices!”
“The food is excellent, and the staff is just wonderful. My favorite place to eat. ❤”
“My experience at the Amsterdam Restaurant was terrific. This restaurant is not hard to miss since it is located right next to the Trans-Canada highway in Kamloops. My first time there, I had the Advocaat Belgian Waffle with coffee. The waffle was amazing; topped with vanilla ice cream, egg liquor, pecans, and sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar while the waffle itself was warm, crunchy outside and soft inside. The coffee was great as well. I highly recommend Amsterdam to anyone who happens to come by the restaurant.”
“Such lovely staff and amazing food. We stopped over in Kamloops for a night and had brunch here. The French toast was some of the best breakfast food I have ever had. Would highly recommend stopping by!”
“My partner and I went to your restaurant last Saturday for the first time after hearing so many great reviews from friends and family. We had pasta, and I took a slice of cheesecake home to try. Amazing!!! Would consider this one of our newest favourite restaurants in Kamloops”

“nice atmosphere, very tasty mocha, sweet but not too sweet and the eclair was scrump.”
“Love chicken wing nite. All flavors do not overpower the great fry and taste of the wings. Fav: the pineapple curry . Indian overtones with a a hint of Hawaii. Great personalities the serving staff posses with their professionalism and down home demeanor. Have been here several times and will return every time we are in Kamloops. Rocks: well done every time.💕👍⚡”

“went tonight pre blazers game. Theo the chef came to our table as we had some changes and requests for our meal. when I say he went above and beyond that is an understatement. One person in our party some Mexican wings and Theo came to the table asked what he was thinking, was told not spicy and not super saucy. Well when I say them wings were da bomb, they were da bomb. Ever wanna try them ask for "the scotty wings". Then Theo came back to see how they were and how my chicken burger with honey galic sauce (recommended from our awesome waitress) which was fantastic and highly recommend. over fantastic food and service and we will be back. Forsure a 5 star!!”

“First time visiting The Cutting Board. I was extremely impressed with the atmosphere and that they are strictly Gluten free! Haven’t eaten out anywhere in a long time as a celiac. All the treats looked delicious in the cabinet and let me tell you the food coming from the kitchen looked absolutely yummy! Didn’t know they served breakfast and lunch. Will be back for sure. Bought the sampler pack of dessert squares. The lady at the counter was friendly & helpful and the chef took time to chat with me as well Thank you! Linda”
“I visited Madras Masala, and overall the food experience was genuinely impressive. The flavors were rich, authentic, and clearly made with care — every dish had that comforting, homestyle South Indian touch. The spices were well-balanced, portions were generous, and the presentation was appealing. It’s definitely a place I would recommend purely based on the quality of the food.
However, the experience was unfortunately overshadowed by an uncomfortable situation. There was a mid-aged bald chef in the kitchen area who was loudly and aggressively shouting at one of the servers, Anisha, in front of customers. It created a very tense atmosphere in what should have been a relaxed dining setting. What stood out even more was how Anisha handled it — she remained calm, composed, and professional throughout, despite being treated unfairly.
Good food can bring people in, but the overall environment and respect within the team matter just as much. I truly hope the management addresses this, because the restaurant has great potential and staff like Anisha deserve to work in a respectful and supportive environment.”
“Had the best experience out with the family in years I can’t remember the last time I have had service in food so good 😊 The private room was just a special touch as I could hear everyone talking and having a great time food was just the best . Looking forward to returning and trying other dishes on the menu Thanks for the great hospitality”
“Food was great. Had a salad with chicken and it was cooked to perfection. Came in and dined alone, was expecting a more friendly and attentive server. One of the girls at the front realized I wasn’t being cared for, and Abbie (Abby? Abi?) gladly grabbed me cutlery, refilled my water as well as checked on how my food tasted, etc. without me having to ask. She did a lovely job of going above and beyond and kindly refused when I offered her a small tip saying it “wasn’t necessary”. I will definitely be coming again.”

“After a long and exhausting day, I arrived at the restaurant around 8:30 PM easter Saturday. There was only one server on duty, but he did an excellent job. He recommended two dishes, and when I considered adding an appetizer, he kindly reminded me that the portions were already quite large.
Since it was Saturday, in addition to the soup he suggested as a starter, I ordered their Saturday special — the Saturday Evening Roast, featuring a 10 oz AAA Prime Rib of Beef. Both dishes were very generous in portion and absolutely delicious.
As the restaurant got busier, the server was constantly moving between tables, maintaining a positive and professional attitude throughout. His dedication and energy made the wait feel much shorter than it actually was.
The food quality and portion sizes here are excellent, but what truly stands out is the professionalism and service. If you live nearby, this place is definitely worth a visit.”
“literally the best meal in kamloops I've had in YEARS!! Apparently Cathy is why, in the kitchen. first time here since it changed ownership. from the namaste india martini to the mini oscar tenderloin to the passion fruit cheesecake.... all hit out of the park. beyond good. amazing! thnk you Peter. xoxo”
“I ordered lunch for the office today and everyone LOVED the food. The person I spoke with on the phone to order was awesome. They delivered right to our lunchroom! Food arrived hot and right on time. Delivery people were efficient and friendly. Great food and excellent service! All of the menus you sent were taken home by the staff!”
“We had almost given up on Kamloops Chinese food until we found these guys. Super friendly staff, very helpful when you have questions or substitutions. Delivery drivers have been very polite, and the speed of service has been excellent. Chow Mein is perfect, not overloaded with veggies, nice seasoning and great texture/cook. Their S&S pork isn’t lazy either where they just toss the meat in then dump some sauce on them, they’re actually prepared properly. We keep coming back and it’s as good as ever!”
“My experience at Original Joe’s was a bit mixed. The food was decent and arrived as ordered, but nothing particularly stood out. The service was quite slow, and our server didn’t seem especially friendly or engaged throughout the meal. That said, everyone has off days, so it’s possible we caught her at a bad time. Despite the service, the overall experience wasn’t terrible, and the food was enjoyable enough. I would consider giving this location another chance in the future, as a better service experience could have made a significant difference to the overall visit.”
“We popped in to grab some plants from the nursery and ended up staying for lunch. The food and service was unbelievable! We will be back!”
“ordered dinner for 4 got sweet n sour chicken balls no sauce spring rolls no sauce and war wonton soup seafood allergy so asked for no seafood they said no problem as they have many times before. Open the container and seafood in it so gross.So 2 items not eaten very dissapointed.”
“My boyfriend and I love to go here for pasta and Caesar salad, my favorite dish is the Chicken Alfredo and I add broccoli 🥦 my boyfriend likes the Spicy Chicken Linguini as well as the Spaghetti special on Tuesdays! The service is amazing and the food is even better! 😋🍝”

“I’ve visited countless coffee shops because I love working out of cafés—it’s a great way to get out of the house. But I drive 30 minutes to this Tim Hortons, and it’s absolutely worth it. This place is simply the best.
The owner doesn’t just run the store—they genuinely connect with people, noticing when regulars return and taking the time to say thank you. Every team member seems genuinely happy to be there, working well together and creating a welcoming environment.
Accessibility is also top-notch—I’ve visited in a wheelchair and with a prosthetic leg, and it’s never been an issue. Even more impressive, the staff remember my coffee order, which is incredible for a café that likely serves hundreds of drinks daily.
It’s clear that when the owner leads with heart, the team reflects those values. I can’t recommend this Tim Hortons highly enough. I visit many coffee shops, but I’ve never had an experience like this. Truly exceptional.”
“Geetansh is honestly one of the best parts of coming here. He always remembers my order, which makes a huge difference. It doesn’t feel like I’m just another customer at a big chain, it feels more like a local café where someone actually knows your preferences.
That small detail completely changes the experience. Great service, great vibe, and just a genuinely good person to interact with.”
“We were really craving a good soup and not sure what we wanted. I had Jacob's as a saved place to try and so we gave it a go a couple days ago. We had the Seafood Nabe Udon and the Beef Udon. I'm not usually a Udon fan due to some not so good food from a couple places out of town, but this was DELICIOUS!! We will definitely be back for more, and to try a few more new things! 😊 I highly recommend checking them out and trying them for yourself.”
“My husband and I stopped in at Noble Pig Brewhouse last Saturday after a long day of driving through the Thompson Valley, and we were so glad we did. We shared the pulled pork sandwich and it was honestly one of the best things either of us has eaten in years - the meat just fell apart and the sauce had a perfect smoky kick. Our server was warm and attentive without hovering, which we really appreciate at our age when we just want to relax and enjoy a meal. If you're passing through Kamloops, do yourself a favor and make time for this place, we're already talking about coming back on our next trip through BC.”
“A friendly and warm atmosphere coupled with great food and drinks of all sorts will keep you coming back. Be sure to check out both the winter AND summer menu, both served at their exclusive time of the year. In the winter you can enjoy the warmth of a wood stove outdoors or the comfort of indoors.”

“Our whole family absolutely loves Red Tomato Pies! Their pizza is hands-down the best in Kamloops. They have options that my kids love and others that my husband I enjoy - it’s a win win! Plus the staff and owners are simply really great people. You can’t go wrong with Red Tomato Pies!”

“Never been amazing atmosphere kind and respectful staff. Top-notch food, best tasting stuff had in a long time. Love that it was homemade made fresh and absolutely delicious. You have to try the Philly beef dip and Tomato vegetable soup will definitely be back again.”
“Just got home from another amazing experience at Brownstone. Food, drink and service stellar as always. I have had the pleasure of dining at a couple of incredible restaurants in Terrace that Dale and Connie were involved with years ago and I can say they are gifted at what they do. Thank you again for hosting a great dinner out for my wife and I and we look forward to the next soon, cheers. Dave and Sierra”
“Pizza 24 in Kamloops is hands down the best pizza in the city! The toppings are fresh, flavorful, and generously piled on top of perfectly baked crust. Located across from Chances on the North Shore in Parkcrest, it’s a must-visit for anyone craving a delicious, satisfying pizza. Highly recommended!”

My brother in law wanted to take his mother out for an enjoyable Mother's Day gift and we decided to come by Mary Browns quickly to grab a Marys Big Bite, Mary's Mashup, Two Spicy Mini Mary's and Biscuit which only came to twenty five dollars but we were told it would take twenty minutes for a small order which we expected was because of the busy time.
After twenty minutes people had come in to order after us and still got their food first. So my brother in laws mother went up to see when our food would be ready and mentioned it would be twenty minutes maximum but it had been well over twenty minutes.
This front desk customer service employee was extremely unprofessional and rude to her, saying they were working on it right now.
After being short with her, I went up to ask for the manager to which I was replied to that there was no manager on site. Then I decided to leave this review.
Very unhappy with the level of service provided.”
“Love this place. I go here every time I go into Kamloops and they always do a great job on my drink. They even have something for my mom too! Also recently they were willing to help me out with a contactless order even though the store looked quite busy, I really appreciate them being so accommodating.”
“It's always a pleasure going to A&W. I've had experience going in A&W Avalon Mall in Newfoundland, and it was a very transaction experience.
Here, the staff smiles, eager to serve, and very happy to take your order. Food is well-cooked, warm when served, and very satisfying. The Nashville Chicken Cruncher is amazing, and I can't get enough of the blueberry turnover.”
“As a California guy, I believe I know a good quality burrito.
Mucho Burrito makes an excellent burrito. Fresh ingredients, tender meat, really good beans, tasty brown rice & all sorts of delicious salsas!
Additionally, their prices are nice a d reasonable.
Please ask for Dha to make your burrito, she is spectacular.
(The size of the burrito is VERY large!)”
“The Vic is my favourite place to grab a coffee, sit down and work away from the office, and to catch up with friends on the weekend. The staff are friendly and attentive and make the atmosphere so welcoming. The drinks kick Starbucks butt any day of the week, along with their sandwiches and pastries. But my favourite menu item has to be their homemade soups and chilis (drooling). Great place to be :)”
“I absolutely love this restaurant!! I can not say enough about the staff. They are always friendly, smiling and remember you when you come back. The food is great, and the environment is so fitting!! I have a few favourites, Melinda always goes so above and beyond to make each visit outstanding, and chad has as easy flow and just makes you at home. Then you have Brandon walking around making sure you are always happy. Thank you for always making our visits amazing. 🖤”

“I love the Halston! They make a very good breakfast and I especially love their chicken quesadillas , they are fabulous!! I have never been disappointed at the Halston and I believe I am now addicted to their quesadillas lol My sister and I go to the Halston at least twice a month.”
