4 weeks agoWe came for the restaurant. Food was great, but the wine was so so for my taste. Great service, we did not have to wait too much for the food. Our waiter explained the food and the pairing wine nicely.

Barry was professional, very knowledgeable and a great guide throughout our experience sharing stories, taking pictures for us and of course providing us with some great wine and cotton candy. I just wanted to thank Barry for making our experience amazing and perfect, so thank you so much for that!

5 months agoNice evening for dinner on the patio. Should've made a reservation, but we stopped by early and managed to luck into a table. We definitely appreciate that. Service was solid. Food was beautifully presented and very tasty. Menu has something for everyone. Prices reflect the overall setting and quality of the food. Curiously, I should say "inexplicably," the wine menu does not include their delicious Blanc de Noir by the glass. If you ask, though, they'll pour. It is by far my favorite Trius wine: 100% Pinot noir that spent 60 months sur lie. Delightful autolysis/toasty notes with long, long finish. Dreamy. As far as dietary needs go, you can find excellent options to fit your low carb, keto, Paleo, or carnivore lifestyle. Also, given the way the food is put together on the plate, it is super easy to eat the parts you want while treating any other bits as garnish. Very, very flexible way of staying healthy without needing to be "picky" with the kitchen!! Yes, we got lucky and got in: but do make a reservation to make sure you don't miss out!!

5 months agoLovely experience. Great spot for a date or a family outing. If you’re a wine connoisseur, look no further. You will get every type of taste your heart desires. The food portions were little too small for my liking personally. I wished they had more food options to enjoy the great scenery around. Only minor annoyance was that for ‘Wine Tasting’ we were seated in a not so great spot. We even asked for better seating which they had available. However for the ‘Restaurant’ booking they gave us good seats. Feels a bit unfair if we had both bookings to not let us enjoy. Seems a minor thing but for the money we were spending $100+ per person, I expect better :)
