Pallino's

I keep giving them a chance.

Stopped by for lunch on our walk, it was $55 for a pizza, salad, and 2 drinks. For the high price point, we were very disappointed in both the pizza and salad. Pizza crust too thin, like a cracker, toppings lacked flavour and overall dry. Salad was OK at best, overall would recommend skipping this place.

Really nice little pizzeria and provides a great low cost alternative for meals when you're staying at sparkling hills.

Best Pizza & Caesar salad I’ve had! Will definitely be returning and recommending.

The pizza is really yummy here!

Got the pizza, pasta and bottle of wine combo and it all was amazing! Highly recommend, I will definitely be coming back!

Charming little spot at Predator Ridge. Staff were phenomenal! Nice crisp thin pizza! Had a few vegetarian options which was lovely!

Mushroom pizza and caesar salad were delicious...best crust I've had in forever
Staying at Sparkling Hill and its a quick drive down the Hill, def be coming back for dinner!

Awesome place to live. great food and amenities. Clean and friendly. Doggie friendly too.

Pallino's was my 198th eatery in Vernon on my quest to eat at every eatery in town.

This is one of two restaurants in Predator Ridge. It is practically next to the Range Restaurant building.

This restaurant doesn't have table service.

You have to pay for individual bottles of soda.

There is a limited number of tables so you feel a bit pressured to leave before you want to when you spot a longer queue at the door.

The bathroom is really clean.

The workers were really friendly and effective.

The hours of operation are a bit inconsistent and confusing.

I paid just over $30 for a mushroom woodfire pizza, and a bottle of Coke which came with a free cup of ice. Pizzas are all priced at $25 and the bruschetta is $15.

Woodfire pizza slices are a bit thinner than the average woodfire pizza.

I also paid $14 for two to go pepperoni slices for my mom.

The crust tasted fine.

Overall, I enjoyed my pizza, but the high price point and great but not outstanding pizza and its location on the outskirts of town makes it difficult to justify a return trip.

Come here if you plan to be in the area, but don't drive fifteen to twenty minutes out of your way solely just to eat here. Go to Masiero's if you live closer to downtown for a woodfire craving or eat at Range if you're eager to eat at Predator Ridge.

In other words, this restaurant is like a B+ or A-. It's pretty good.

198 eateries in Vernon are now complete. I only have eight remaining.

Excellent meal from starters to dessert all cooked, seasoned and presented beautifully. Highly recommend the squid starter, steak cooked to perfection, and summer chocolaty for dessert. Our server Steph was attentive without being intrusive making it a lovely evening to celebrate our anniversary.

Very dissapointing. Saw all the positive reviews and ratings and was looking forward to a very enjoyable evening, it wasn't. Driveway and outdoors were beautiful upon arrival. We were seated at a window table with a very nice view, the table itself had the feeling of a cafeteria, no table settings or anything, felt cold and uninviting. Ordered a bottle of wine $$$ and a glass of ice cubes which my wife adds to her wine ???. I spoon would have been a nice touch to get the cubes out of the tall glass The wine chiller came later. We found the menu quite uninspiring, we ordered chicken thighs and beef Carpaccio for appetizers, the thighs were very tasty but battered and deep fried is not my idea of "pan fried" thighs. The carpaccio was pretty tasteless. For our mains my wife had the Ahi tuna which was way overdone and dry with a black burned crust. I had the Beef Obie which appeared to be a fancy name for pot roast it was tasty but not for the price.we asked for salt and pepper and when she brought them she sat them on the table reaching over our dirty appy dishes and just left them there. When we were finished our dirty dishes were not cleared, we ended up stacking them and sitting them across the table so we could enjoy our $14 bottle of wine that we paid $50 for And by the way no one ever topped up the wine over the entire time. Our server and the food carriers were all friendly but obviously had never been trained in fine dining service, at the prices charged and the upscale venue the service and the menu need to be much better. It's too bad because the whole Vernon area needs a first class venue like the Range should be. Saddle I don't think we would ever recommend it or ever go back again

Has the best experience last night! Server was great and manager Reenah came over to say well wishes! Had the pan fried squid and chicken thighs to start and both were incredible. Love the atmosphere and updates to the restaurant! We will definitely be back!

We had four delicious dinners. Two delicious burgers with caramelized onion and cheese, which I will try next time, because they were reportedly wonderful. My prawn dish was excellent, but I would ask for less sauce next time. The fish and chips were good too. The pineapple mousse for dessert was great and the gelato bars were fantastic.  Tonight there was lovely live music, which I was looking forward to. Unfortunately, that is not conducive to quiet conversation. The staff were very attentive!

I have dined there in the past and am quite impressed with the renovations they have done. The retractable patio is wonderful. The menu could use a refresher, maybe a few more interesting salads and bowls. Overall it was a good dining experience and I will recommend it to friends.
