Salty’s Beach House Restaurant-Penticton

Yesterday we went to Salty’s www.saltysbeachhouse.com to, again, book the upstairs for Don’s golf group. We were greeted at the door with a beautiful smile and sincerely given ‘welcome’. The greeter did not know us, so it was not phony.

We took a table by the window and enjoyed the beautiful lake view. The sun was giving its best, I think, and the lake view through the valley was enchanting.

I ordered my favourite (up to now) the two fish tacos. These are sooo nice. They are flour tortillas stuffed with guacamole, tempura battered shrimp. white fish, lettuce, salsa, No onions please! It came with fries (new change here) and two sauces.

The fries, I am sure for a lot of people who like pepper, would love them. For me, as I don ‘t use pepper, had to brush it off so I could eat some of them. Now, here is where Salty’s beats the competition……our astute server, Danielle, noticed I hadn’t eaten them and enquired why. I explained my reason and she left after asking if they could re-do the fries.

I told her no thank you, all was fine. Then our ‘greeter’ came over (forgive me here, I did not remember their names – must be my age) and asked me why….thanked me for my input…and looked after it.

Don ordered a pizza. Now this one I would order as it was absolutely the best pizza I have ever had. It is called the
Bahama Breeze. It has prawns, scallops, bacon, roasted garlic butter, oven dried tomatoes, mozzeralla cheese, manchego cheese, avocado slices and a wasabi lime vinaigrette.

Good grief Martha! It is sooooooo darn good!

We love this restaurant. Daya is the “one-of-a-kind manager and they have a real treasure in her. Her knowledge of operation, menus, attitude, people skills, staffing is so noticeable. She is perfect in her niche.

Would we return? In a heartbeat. Should you try it? Absolutely! Just remember to go for the Bahama Breeze pizza and tell them you read it here.

Salty’s-Penticton, B.C.

Yesterday, while on the way to the airport, we wanted to go to the Okanagan Lakeside. It had been suggested to us to visit Salty’s  http://www.saltysbeachhouse.com/ for lunch, (Thanks Geneva)

Kelly ordered the Fish Tacos. It consisted of Three flour tortillas stuffed with guacamole, tempura battered prawns, white fish, onions, lettuce and salsa with fresh squeezed lime. I ordered the same thing sans the onions. Kelly had a wedge lettuce ‘salad’ and I, unfortunately, had the fries (After all the visitations I didn’t need one more fry. I do love fish tacos though.

Don had something called Diavola Seafood Pasta. It was fresh clams, mussels, fish, prawns and linguini tossed with a rich savory caper and olive oil tomato sauce. He loved this. 

The setting is very beachy, the staff are young, attentive and friendly. Kudos to the Chefs here. One of them was actually singing  while working. Not loudly, but we could hear him. Happy they are. Price is $$. Can’t wait until we go again.

We sat on the beach for about an hour, enjoying the sun, breeze and watching people in the water and playing on the beautiful sandy beach.
