The restaurant and patio is beautiful, service was good, but unfortunately the food and drink wasn't the best, especially considering the prices. Everything was pretty bland, including the mocktail I had, and the portion sizes were much smaller than what I expected. The cheesecake was tiny (for, I believe $15). It was a lovely presentation and the cheesecake itself was pretty good, but the fancy cookie and sorbet sides it had were again, tiny and again, tasteless. I'm not sure we'd come back, as nice as the restaurant itself is.

Always excellent service from Vincent and amazing food!! My team travels to Kelowna yearly for work and we make a reservation for dinner at the Eldorado’s dining room each year. We have always had Vincent as our Server. He is very friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. This year I had the delicious slow roasted rack of lamb for dinner and Vincent recommended a bottle of wine for us to share. The Restaurant is right on the lake with a beautiful view. 100% recommend for nice dinner.

Made a reservation for breakfast for Saturday and we were seated inside. When I asked about patio seating we were denied based on table availability. While we dined there were a row of 5+ tables that sat empty along with about 3 others that were completely unattended.For the three meals purchased all the eggs were done incorrectly.The server did correct the issue promptly and nicely.Otherwise the service was good and it is a beautiful location. I only wish I was offered the patio seating when I reserved my table. I don't really understand why we were denied.I likely will go somewhere else in the future.

Went for happy hour and asked for a table on the patio. We ordered food and drinks from the happy hour menu (provided to us on the patio) and when the bill came they charged us full price for everything. When asked about the error in the billing, our poor server had to awkwardly explain that the managers have decided happy hour rates were not applicable to lakeside tables. I’m not understanding the logic here? Why would you only offer a special rate for sitting inside and not for the entire restaurant. The menu is already pricy as it is. We’ve been dining here for 10+ years and seems like things keep changing, without proper communication or reasoning. Not to mention we are lift members, have been for 7 years, and we’ve been told over the years we’d get some kind of deal when we dine there but none of the staff know anything about it so we’ve stopped asking. I feel bad for the staff as they are all doing their best but seems they are not being given clear communication.

We had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant today. We asked for a table & were seated with dinner menus. The hostess notified us that their kitchen was closing in ten minutes, and we said we will put our order in as soon as we could.Our server brought us water & then did not come to our table for 30 minutes, despite us making eye contact with him multiple times and setting our menus to the side. After 30 mins - we had to ask for his attention as he still did not come back to our table. We finally placed our order. Another 15 minutes passed and the manager approached us saying that we will not be getting dinner because the server put our order in after the kitchen was closed.Our server did not have the decency to apologize to us. We felt very disrespected. We also noticed that other parties were attended to more promptly than us. This made us feel like there was a hint of racism involved.We spent almost an hour at this restaurant and we left without being able to eat. Not to mention, we dragged our baby and our toddler out. A huge waste of time. I will never go to this restaurant again nor will I recommend this place to anyone. I do not appreciate how this situation was handled & left with my family feeling disrespected (& hungry).

Atmosphere amazing!!Customer service amazing!!Location amazing!!Food absolutely terrible!!We have been lucky enough to experience the Eldorado restaurant for years now and the food just keeps getting worse and worse. I love it so much there but we can’t go back, not until the menu has changed.Real people, real food…that’s all you need to get 5 stars! I hear it from everyone. Best of luck!

Wonderful setting on the dock patio but food was not great. Ordered Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl and got sushi rolls with not a flake of tuna anywhere. Our server was great and very accommodating... encouraging us to try different drinks. Also did not see Winston the lovely golden lab who would have been the highlight of the outing.

Absolutely superb! We are visiting Kelowna from England and were recommended this place - we were definitely not let down. The service, food and setting were all absolutely excellent. We had a table with a view of the lake which was idyllic and the server (Vince) was first class, with an impressive knowledge of the menu and was also very attentive.The scallops and beef tenderloin were cooked to perfection and the desserts were so good as well. Highly recommend this place!

Rooftop bar was terrific. Great views. No table service if you are just having rooftop drink and not dining but there was little-or-no wait at the bar and, as noted, the view was terrific.Came back for inside dining the next night. The vibe inside was not nearly as good as the rooftop. It almost put you in mind of a nursing home that was going for high-end but not quite reaching it. The service was VERY slow. My spouse waited 20 minutes for a cup of coffee and there was at least a 15 minute delay (and up to 30 minutes) for each item ordered from the bar. There was a significant delay between each visit from our server.For the food: the house salad was delicious. High praise for the blackened whitefish. Outstanding coffee. The garlic mash and New England Clam chowder were very good, too. However, the mussels had maple syrup added and the effect was not good. The rolls were nice and warm but just a little too sweet. The ONLY vegetarian entree on the menu was a $15.00 bowl of penne pasta with garlic and oil or Alfredo. The menu indicated that there would be a vegetable medley with this dish, but there were only a smattering of green onion bits on top.In short, there were some decor, expo, and staffing issues which can probably be worked out, but at this price point, this is unacceptable.

As this was my first visit to this restaurant, I had higher expectations of the experience that we received. We were a party of 5 (4 Caucasian and 1 African American). When we arrived for our reservation, we walked past countless empty tables (all of which had a misting system right by the tables). When we were seated, we were placed at the very end of the seating in which the last 3 tables had zero misting systems located at the table. We arrived at 3pm for happy hour and then were told by our server that we could only experience the happy hour if we sat inside. It was a 30+ degree day and we wanted to enjoy the weather so we chose to stay outside. We then ordered muscles just to be told that there were no more muscles so we ordered something else. Approximately 30 mins later the server returned and we made a joke about not being able to order the muscles and for some odd reason there were now muscles and we could order them. We watched another East Indian couple come in and they were placed directly in front of our table (2nd last table on the dock which also had no misting system). We watched as countless Caucasian entered and were seated at the front where there were misting seats available. For me personally it seemed very obvious what was going on based on race. It's unfortunate that in 2023 this is still an issue. I can say I will NEVER go back to this restaurant, it's unfortunate because the location is nice.
