Absolutely have loved every staff member that I've interacted with at this establishment.
Also, love to see that Mark Hansen is chefing it up in the kitchen!!- He seriously makes THE BEST PIZZA in town.
Highly recommend coming here.

I came here with my parents from Korea, and we really enjoyed the food, service, and atmosphere. The chefs and servers were so professional. The handcrafted pasta, in particular, was really chewy and delicious. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Kelowna. Thank you for providing us with a great experience in Kelowna! 😊

My mother & I visited BC/Kelowna for a few days & were lucky to make it here for dinner! Mom tried the 3 course menu, & I chose other dishes to round it out..all wonderful 🤍 The pear & beet salads were fantastic. Beef carpaccio was delightfully cooked & easy to savour. Chicken dish was phenomenal (& I'm not even a big fan of chicken, but it looked so good, mom let me try). Paired with sweet, refreshing drinks & followed by light, scrumptious desserts. 🥰 The service was kind & atmosphere out on the patio was lovely. We 100% hope to return. Thank you!! 🙏🏼🌱

We had the best time here last night! Our server/bartender Mark did a wonderful job making our evening so special! Each drink was beautifully garnished, unique and delicious. He was incredibly knowledgeable and kind. Thank you for a great night!

While in Kelowna for a conference, found myself at Basil and Mint for an early dinner on a Thursday evening. Greeted and seated quickly as they had just opened.

The pineapple gin special cocktail was refreshing and perfect after arriving from Vancouver after a long drive. Ordered the 3-course tasting menu.

Starter: Okanagan Poached Pear Salad. This was a fabulous starter - all the ingredients worked well together tasting fresh with savoury and sweet at the same time and nice texture from the walnuts.

Main: Roasted Fraser Valley Pork Tenderloin. Was also tempted to go with the Chicken Parmesan as that was a specialty but chose the pork instead, and was not disappointed! The pork was moist, tender and delicious with the demi glaze adding a hint of sweetness.

Dessert: Classic Italian Tiramísu. Great finish to the dinner with the Mascarpone a light and almost fluffy accompaniment to the Kahlua and coffee flavours of the Tiramisu!

Overall I’d highly recommend Basil and Mint - my first visit was fabulous and won’t be my last the next time I’m in Kelowna!

Very salty the pasta and bread the pizza was very overpowering the only thing I really enjoyed was the cheese cake too over priced just being honest very good service but not very good food

A truly wonderful fine-dining experience—perfect for couples or anyone looking to enjoy a romantic evening. The ambiance is warm, intimate, and beautifully set for meaningful moments. The staff go above and beyond with their kindness and attentive service, making you feel genuinely cared for. If you’re planning a special night out, this place is an unforgettable choice!

Frankly a somewhat hidden gem in Kelowna comparable with the best the City has to offer. We consider Basil & Mint our go to for a guaranteed quality experience from service to food to atmosphere. When you feel you need something you can count on, Peter and the team will have your back!

STAY AWAY! If I could I would give this place a zero star! Vote with your dollars and do not waste it here. We were sat in a strange, dated, small back room with a really loud music speaker of the very quiet and slow restaurant on a Tuesday night after waiting 1.5 hours for our 7pm reservation. Upon asking if we could sit in the regular restaurant, a man who worked there said we could not because we had a child! Another woman and her 2 kids were leaving and said they felt the same way but chose to stay and eat but felt segregated to the back room. I have never in my life been segregated to a room at a restaurant because of my child. The man would not sit us with the rest of the people and was not open to a proper discussion. He said, “ the old people complain!” so we had to sit in the back room if we wanted to eat here. Restaurant only had a few people in it so I don’t know why we waited 1.5 hours to be sat in a back room.. Do not support people who segregate people to back rooms. Wow! I’m still in shock how we were treated! Hint Chris- don’t have a kids menu if you don’t want kids! We then went to another amazing restaurant and were welcomed with open arms! They were also in shock to hear about our experience. Very disappointed there are people like this in our world who segregate folks to old back rooms. Wow!

Had a table for 6. Food was incredible, servers were friendly and attentive. We had allergies and dietary restrictions, they catered accordingly and well. Zero complaints! Would highly recommend to anyone wanting a fanatic dinner in Kelowna.

Chef/owner restaurants are the best in my opinion! From scratch, the menu is fantastic with a wine menu to match.

Chicken Supreme with Tarragon Sauce

Prawns with Signature Tequila Lime Sauce
