Angelina was a great hostess! we've found our "Goto" place in Kelowna - we'll be back. the miso mushrooms make a great starter, and the "steak frites" were an excellent value - the steak arrived cooked to perfection. the evening was very enjoyable, and a great value

    La Bussola is consistently excellent quality. Whether it is the food, service or ambience. The wine list is excellent with many Okanagan options. The meals are delicious, well presented and have generous portions. There are traditional Italian dishes and innovative specials by the chef. The service is always professional, friendly & relaxed. We have been there many times and have never had a bad experience.

    Our server Chantelle was excellent and knowledgeable, her recommendations were on point! Our appys were excellent, I had the shirt ribs and my wife had the tuna...dinner was cooked perfectly and so delicious!! I had the steak and my wife had the salmon. They ran out of the wine my wife was having and comped us dessert. Bonnie the manager went over and above to make our Valentine's dinner memorable! We enjoyed Bonnie's sense of humor! We will definitely be back! Thank you Milestones in Kelowna!
