    My boyfriend and I we were looking for a good cocktail place with appetizers or small plates to share. We found Ask Pablo through Google reviews and we are so glad we found this hidden gem. Two years ago we went to Humo’s and it became one of our favorite restaurants in Kelowna. We didn’t know the two restaurants are from the same owners until we got there and it gave us the same cozy and chill vibe. I’m Mexican and this place is absolutely stunning and makes my heart warm, the design has little details with Mexican and Japanese culture. It has delicious cocktails with good food and excellent service. Place is small and it can feel a little claustrophobic but our server Jordan made us feel like home. We tried the Mushrooms Quesabirrias, the consomé was delicious and the mushrooms quesadillas were good but It got lost a little bit the flavor of the corn tortilla with the cheese costra outside I normally like when it’s inside (but that’s a preference). We are absolutely coming back again! 🤍

    Ask Pablo is a must-visit spot in Kelowna if you’re looking for great drinks and a unique atmosphere. From the moment you walk in, the ambiance stands out. The lighting is a little darker than most restaurants, creating a cool, cozy vibe that feels stylish and different. The drinks were the highlight of the evening. I ordered the Passion Fruit Margarita, and it was absolutely delicious! refreshing, perfectly balanced, and packed with flavor. Everyone at our table ordered something different, and each drink looked incredible. We couldn’t resist sampling each other’s cocktails, and every single one was a hit. Between the creative drinks, the inviting atmosphere, and the unique setting, Ask Pablo delivers an experience that’s about more than just food and drinks—it’s a place you’ll want to linger and enjoy. Whether you’re a local or visiting Kelowna, it’s definitely worth adding to your list.

    Cool little joint with excellent food and cocktails. We really indulged and tried as much as we could. Waiting staff and bartender were very welcoming and friendly. The food was perfectly executed and the presentation was immaculate. The cocktails were unique, visually impressive, and most of all, delicious. Highly recommend!

    Adorable place,, truly such a unique spot. Our server Jordan was so sweet and helpful with any questions we had regarding the drinks. Big shoutout to him. So so funny and personable, which definitely solidified the experience as top notch. The food was delicious and well presented. Same with the drinks; really cool if you want to try something new and like a cozy funky vibe.

    A Must-Visit for Design Lovers and Cocktail Enthusiasts! We only dropped in for a quick drink, but this place made a massive impression. The decor and vibe are incredibly cool—it's the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to settle in and stay for hours. The service was top-notch; our server was both attentive and genuinely friendly, which really added to the experience. As for the drinks, the creativity behind the bar is impressive: The Roboto: A sleek, well-balanced cocktail that hit all the right notes. The Salsa Matcha: Bold, unique, and expertly executed—perfect if you're looking for something with a bit of a creative edge. The drinks were so good that we’re already planning our next visit to dive into the food menu and try more of their cocktail list. Whether you're looking for a quick pre-dinner drink or a new favorite hangout, this spot is definitely worth a visit!

    Small, cozy spot with incredible drinks and amazing food. Service was top-notch, when I wasn’t sure what to order, they gave great suggestions, and the food special was outstanding. No reservations, but we had no trouble getting a table for two on a Sunday night. Definitely worth a visit!

    Can’t speak on the food as we didn’t order any, but the cocktails are strong, unique and delicious! Cozy vibes and comfy couches, would be a great spot for a date night. Got Hot Child in the City which was like a mildly spicy pina colada - loved it!
