4 of 5 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there was 1 inspection with 0 infractions recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Protecting food from contamination and Handwashing and staff hygiene.

The last 2 inspections in a row found no infractions. The number of infractions per inspection has stayed roughly the same over time.

What these findings mean

Health authorities word their violations differently, so we group them by what they mean for food safety. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.

  • Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk

    This covers how food is stored, prepared and displayed: raw meat kept away from ready-to-eat food, food covered and stored off the floor, and nothing dripping or splashing into it. Cross-contamination from raw to cooked food is a direct route for salmonella and E. coli.

    Recorded once on December 12, 2019. For example: 5 Are the premises and equipment properly maintained and operated in a sanitary manner (i.e. ongoing maintenance)?

  • Handwashing and staff hygieneHigher risk

    Hands are the main way germs like norovirus move from people to food. Inspectors look for stocked, accessible handwashing sinks, staff washing hands when required, hair restraints, and sick employees being kept away from food. Gaps here can spread illness quickly.

    Recorded once on December 12, 2019. For example: 7 Are there handwashing stations available and properly supplied?

  • Other findingsLower risk

    Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.

    Recorded once on December 12, 2019. For example: 1 Does the facility have proper monitoring supplies?

    We had the three-course meal and everything was prepared beautifully, seriously delicious. The service was amazing and the overall vibe inside the restaurant was warm and inviting. Such a great experience from start to finish. Highly recommend dining here!

    We went to eat the 3 course menu on a Saturday night. Originally we booked the 6 course Sunday night, but the day before they let us know they can’t accommodate us anymore, which was disappointing and a real shame. However, we still went for the three course, as we wanted to try the restaurant. Service: the hostess was lovely, but our waitress was a bit slow and we didn’t get a lot of personal care. It took her 15 mins to get our order (the menu is set, it’s not like you need that much time to browse), we had to ask for a drinks menu and remind them about our ordered drinks. Furthermore, just so you know, the meals are slow to come out, as we were there for over two and a half hours for three courses. Food: honestly, I was underwhelmed. The starter, sourdough and butter, was delicious. For meat eaters there is an amuse bouche but there are no alternatives for non-meat eaters. For our appetizers, we had the beef tartare (excellent) and the beetroot, which was nice. For our mains, we had the risotto (nice again) and the salmon, which was disappointing. It was dry and a bit sad. For dessert, we had the chocolate mousse and Pate a Choux. The chocolate mousse was not mousse at all, but served on a dry piece of cake. Truly disappointing. The choux was nice but extremely sweet. The lovely hostess got us the cheese board instead, which we appreciated, but it was also average. The highlights were the drinks and the bread. Overall, would not recommend or go again.

    I had the opportunity to enjoy a private 6 course meal last week with great Okanagan wine pairings as well. Everything was perfect from the explanations of the wines by the owner to the service and ambience. The food was so well thought out and prepared perfectly. With an open kitchen you could see the chef contemplating plate layout, I was amazed at the detail. It was a perfect night and I can't wait to visit them again in the future.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our splurge for dinner here. Our party of 4 (2 adults, 2 kids) got to sample nearly the entire tasting menu (the only thing we didn't have was the cheese board dessert) and everything was amazing. Service was friendly and I liked that we had enough space between courses not to feel rushed. We had a reservation but didn't plan this visit until we were already at the mountain. So we didn't have anything "fancy" to wear, but we felt totally comfortable in our regular clothes. We would recommend this if you are looking for a special night out.

    I had an exceptional dining experience at Six Degrees Bistro. The ambiance was enchanting, highlighted by a warm outdoor fireplace and inviting fur seating. The intimate setting allowed for personalized service, making us feel truly attended to. The set menu was a culinary delight, offering exquisite options for both meat and vegetarian preferences. The addition of their new signature cocktails added a perfect touch to an already remarkable meal. I highly recommend Six Degrees Bistro and look forward to returning many times. A definite 5-star gem!

    The Bistro is excellent in all the important ways. 3 of us booked a later table which turned out to be a good idea because the Bistro is small and when full is a bit loud. And so, the small crowd thinned out quickly after 8:30. The menu is broad enough to make you feel like you have good choices to make and everything we ate was delicious. And while you are at it, they have some really excellent local wine. It is not remotely inexpensive, but totally worth it. Truly an unexpectedly excellent evening.
