Those behind Socialē by Villa Rosa have been offering consistently great food and wine from both B.C. and Italy for more than 15 years in Penticton. That food, which includes fresh, local produce, and wine complements the atmosphere and makes for an unforgettable experience.

Socialē, which is Okanagan family owned, is the cousin of Villa Rosa Ristorante, which is on hiatus. The soul of that restaurant will live on through Socialē. The Italian wine bar and coffee house has taken the best from Villa Rosa Ristorante and turned it into something even more unique and special.

Socialē is located at 950 Lakeshore Dr. W., in Penticton, mere steps from Okanagan Lake Beach.

    Great food and great flavors. Friendly and welcoming service. Price seemed high for tapas since the dishes are so small. We would come back next time we are visiting Penticton though. Overall good experience.

    The food and drinks are always delicious. Always the most unique and delicious cocktails. A complete wine list. The food is always deliciously prepared with an Italian flair.

    Our server Danielle was attentive, helpful with her guidance and prompt with her service. My husband and i have been to Socialē many times (my favourites have always been polenta fries, chili prawns and the Beet salad). This time , i decided to have the wild mushroom risotto and a side of buttermilk chicken. Oh my, I was not disappointed..My husband chose the chili prawns , and the braised beef cheeks with gnocchi...Yummy. The other couple ,who had only been to Socialē for lunch outdoors in warmer months, were pleasantly surprised with the indoor setting. They thoroughly enjoyed their orders of chili prawns, veal marsala, a side of buttermilk chicken with pasta.... oh, i must not forget to mention the wonderful warm bread ..we ended up ordering 3 individual loaves, after sharing the first one as an starter... the calabrian chili prawns sauce was nowhere to be seen after soaking it up with the bread 😋
