"Brett, the owner makes an effort to meet and greet his guests. Staff are friendly and helpful. I believe they work hard to satisfy their guests. Happy Hour is awesome as is date night and trivia night. Great, comfortable atmosphere. Just paved their parking lot!"

"Great place to stop, whether date night or looking for delicious meal, they've got you. Came back after few years away for wine tasting and was of the most intimate and well thought out tastings have ever been to. Will be back monthly to try new tastes of wine and food flavors they've come up with."
