Nestled along the picturesque Marina Way in Penticton, Rusty Anchor stands as a culinary beacon for locals and visitors alike. This private yacht club restaurant offers an inviting atmosphere where delectable dishes and stellar service unite. Diners can indulge in an enticing range of offerings—from the crispy, finger-licking chicken burgers to the memorable BC Rock fish po' boy, which is a hit among patrons.

The balanced flavors and quality ingredients are consistently celebrated, with many noting the attention to detail by both the kitchen, helmed by Chef Darren, and the attentive service provided by the staff. The dine-in experience is enhanced by the dog-friendly patio, providing a relaxed vibe perfect for unwinding after a day of boating or water sports.

This is a private yacht club restaurant, just so every one knows, but they do have private christmas parties available during the winter season

Our waitress Hilary is to serving what Darren, the chef, is to food. It was a perfect pairing! Astro and Lexi were given lots of water and we had plenty of shade on the dog friendly patio. Great experience all round. I hhad the Po' Boy BC Rock Fish Sandwich and my friend had the Kung Pao Beef Lettuce Wraps and Crispy Chicken Bites. Love that I could order a Corona Sunbrew.

Awesome place to rent water sports vehicles, Not too much parking though, we parked in the one parking lot and got a warning that if we did it again we would be towed away

We dropped in for the Sunday Brunch. Great menu. Must admit surpassed out expectation. The Huevos Rancheros were over the top, the Eggs Benedict looked incredible at the next table. The skillet was great. The steak just fell apart. It is an unasumming great place. The service was great, food came quick, prices for the brunch were fair, from 16 to 21 that day. Beer and ceasar prices were fair. A great place on the water, friendly people, just a nice vibe. A couple more beer selections on tap would have been nice.

Went last night for a family dinner. The menu was awesome. I ordered the lettuce wraps which were amazing! The lettuce was placed separately for me to roll myself. It was a really fun way to eat them as I got to roll the lettuce in the delicious, cooked to perfection braised beef and noodles. It was the funnest restaurant visit I've had in a while and all the family enjoyed their food so much! I'm gonna try and make the lettuce wraps myself at home the way the chef at Rustys made them but I don't think mine are gonna turn out THAT good!!!!
