" I stopped by for lunch and was blown away by the authentic flavors of the wood-fired pizza! The ambiance was cozy and inviting. I enjoyed the wild mushroom and truffle oil pizza, which was absolutely divine. I can't wait to return for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a lovely evening at La Vela Pizzeria! The pizzas are genuinely authentic and bursting with flavors. Our server was attentive, and we appreciated how prompt the food came out. The dessert menu looked delectable, but we were too full to try it this time around. " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious wood-fired pizza that transported me straight back to Italy! The margherita was spot on with fresh basil and a perfect crust. Service was attentive and friendly. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving authentic Italian food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I attempted to order a gluten-free pizza here, but unfortunately, the experience did not work out for me due to cross-contamination. I was disappointed because I know they can make great pizzas, but clearly more attention is needed regarding dietary restrictions. " (*Curated Review*)

" A wonderful gem in Kelowna! We tried several pizzas and were thrilled with the flavors. The crust was perfectly crispy and the toppings felt fresh. My only wish is that they had more vegetarian options. Nonetheless, I’ll definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)
