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.
Food temperature controlHigher risk
Bacteria multiply fastest between about 4 °C and 60 °C (40 °F to 140 °F). Inspectors check that cold food stays cold, hot food stays hot, cooked food is cooled quickly, and that staff have accurate thermometers. Temperature problems are one of the most common causes of food poisoning, so these are treated as critical findings.
Recorded once on October 29, 2020. For example:
3 Are proper cooling and reheating procedures followed?
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 October 29, 2020. 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 October 29, 2020. 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 October 29, 2020. For example:
1 Does the facility have proper monitoring supplies?

Was passing through the city on Rocky Mountain tour. Our guide suggested a few restaurants but we opted for our own and chose this place. We have no regrets. The grilled pork chop was aromatic and tender. The portion was big, three pieces. By itself, the pork was already delicious but when I dipped it in the dipping sauce, it gave it a whole new dimension. I really enjoyed tye meal. The rice paper roll was generous and the portion large as well. The dipping sauce was delicious. I just came back from Vietnam a few weeks ago and the food here is better than most I had there. The staff was really helpful and friendly. I have no hesitation recommending this place.

Many places with nice patios only allow service dogs, so we had been wandering around trying to find a spot. I’m so glad we found this gem! The food was delicious, the wine selection was amazing, and they have a genuinely pet-friendly patio. It was the perfect spot to hang out with my dog. Highly recommend!

So delicious!!! We ordered the BBQ crispy tofu salad rolls as a starter. For a main I ordered the lemongrass tofu bowl with vermicelli and sweet chili sauce - Heavenly. But what I appreciated most during our visit was the service. Our server was warm, knowledgeable, and able to provide specific details and ingredients in menu items. Therefore, as a vegan boy, ordering was a breeze (btw, their menu is very friendly for folks looking for plant based grub). Highly recommend this restaurant - Keep it up!

I had an excellent dining experience at Bamboo Chopsticks in Kelowna. The pho soup was absolutely delicious—rich, flavorful broth, fresh ingredients, and a generous portion size. It tasted authentic, comforting, and perfectly balanced. The restaurant was clean and welcoming, and the service was friendly and efficient. Whether you’re a longtime pho lover or trying Vietnamese cuisine for the first time, I highly recommend this place. I will definitely be coming back for another bowl of pho!

Their prices are great! I had a medium rare beef Pho soup and my hubby had the chicken curry stor fry. We had their super awesome crispy spring rolls for our appetizer. Everything was amazing. Huge portions for the price we payed. Hreat menu variety selections. I love that I can personalize my pho soup to my liking if I choose to do so. We had decaffeinated jasmin tea to complete our perfect meal. I made our 7 pm reservation for 2 on their user-friendly website. I'm a huge Pho fan. You could even call me picky or selective. My soup didn't disappoint, it was sooo good. I haven't had this quality Pho soup in years. I used to live in Québec, Montreal. The best Pho soup I ever had there was at a small place in China town. My soup tonight reminded me of the quality soup I had back in Montréal. Staff was super friendly and service was fast and attentive. We had our appetizer within 5 minutes of ordering. We will definitely be going back. Don't take my word for it. Go and enjoy for yourself!
