A cozy little nook in the Pandosy Village area of Kelowna, Fandango is one of those great neighbourhood eateries to snuggle into. The perfect space to lunch, have wine with the girls or enjoy a romantic French-inspired, locally-sourced meal, Chef Derek Benitz also provides off-site custom catering.
I love the traditional French tastes on the menu like French onion soup (made with duck stock!), the French style three-egg omelette and the well-loved favorite steak & frites. There are other influences on the offerings as well with pasta choices like the fusilli pomodoro or a luxurious lobster risotto. And, there is always an option for the Table d’hote, your choice of dishes for a three-course meal at a great price. The menu is always evolving and changing, as ingredients come into season.
Benitz owns and operates this 30-seat bistro and he is happy to rent the entire space for special occasions, meetings or events. The ambiance is very versatile and very comfortable, offering a familiar, relaxing vibe with soft lighting. Ever the gracious host, Chef Derek is always ready to welcome guests with a warm smile.
