Incredible dining experience. Got our group of 8 in last minute & it was the most beautiful & incredible meal. Intimate setting, cozy with the fireplace, & just top notch. Lily was our server & she was incredible. Have always loved this restaurant & vineyard for lunch/brunch but dinner was next level. Thank you so much for the wonderful night.

Absolutely top notch! The asparagus fries were outstanding, the tomato and grilled cheese fondue was out of this world, and the butter cake - Heaven on a plate.

Our server, Blake, took great care of us. He knew the menu well and his recommendations were perfect. Blake had several tables but kept checking on us to make sure we had our drinks, got our food, and followed up on drink reorders. We enjoyed the excellent food and were well taken care of.
