Inspection summary
Derricks Steakhouse has been inspected 2 times by Interior Health Authority since March 20, 2025. The most recent inspection, on April 10, 2026, recorded 1 infraction.
None of the 2 inspections on record were free of infractions. In the past 12 months there was 1 inspection with 1 infraction recorded. All recorded findings relate to upkeep, equipment or paperwork rather than direct food-handling risks.
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.
Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk
Floors, walls and ceilings must be smooth and clean, with working lighting, ventilation, plumbing, hot and cold water, and washrooms. These are rarely an immediate food-safety risk on their own, but persistent problems can lead to pest or sanitation issues.
Recorded once on April 10, 2026. For example:
6 Are the premises designed and equipped to ensure safe food handling?
Permits, records and postingLower risk
Operating permits, required signage, written procedures and logs. These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.
Recorded once on March 20, 2025. For example:
3 Are written food handling procedures (Food Safety Plan) current and available on site?
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 March 20, 2025. For example:
1 Does the facility have proper monitoring supplies?

Visited on August 6th while on vacation from the UK and had an amazing experience! Service, food and ambience all superb. I think our Waiter was called Chris (he with the extravagant moustache) and he was so friendly and knowledgeable. The Quails Gate wine recommendation was a great call. The tableside steak tutorial was so enlightening; and the tableside caesar salad assembly was phenomenal. We all ended up choosing fillet mignon with a selection of sides and all dishes were delicious. Steaks being cooked to perfection. I’ve had the pleasure of eating at some fantastic steakhouses across Europe and North America and can honestly say that Derricks is one of the best I’ve experienced. Finally, a special mention for the 2 staff members who very quickly and efficiently dealt with a wine glass spillage/breakage. Thank you 🙏🏽

My partner and I had the pleasure of celebrating our 18th anniversary together at Derrick's and it was the best meal we've shared together in all that time. The folks working in that kitchen are friggin' flavour wizards. I specifically want to shout out our server Cody for absolutely nailing the wine pairings to go along with the special menu that the owner Ross assembled for us. Thank you all so much for an incredible evening that we won't forget!

We visited there on weekdays night. They foods are very surprising to us. Beets & strawberry salad is amazing and looks pretty. The wagyu steak is perfect, also side dressing matches with everything. I really highly recommend people come to try.

On a Kelowna trip with the wife from Vancouver Island and this was our "big night out". We had booked the Chef's tasting menu and it was fantastic. Cocktails (alcohol and non-alc) were very good as was the food. The service however was on another level! Mike was funny, professional, and warm all at the same time. Not to mention the extra courses the kitchen sent our way. We left full and satisfied. We also got to "choose our weapons" from an impressive array of steak knives. Very fun and very worth it. We will definitely be back when we are in town next

We had a really nice evening here with our kids. The atmosphere is wonderful & cozy. The service was excellent and the food incredibly tasty! Steaks were all done perfectly and the sides were large enough to share and delicious! A little pricier than I’d like for a “Family” dinner for 5 but as a special treat it was perfect.
