    Very good food.

    A little hard to find. Valet parking was an unexpected treat. The food was good but a little on the pricey side. I would eat here again.

    We have eaten here a couple times. If we didn't live 2 hours away, we'd be MUCH more frequently! On our last visit, my husband had one of their specials, a tenderloin burrito which he enjoyed. I had the Sea Bass Enchilada. I'm ruined now,...More

    Yes, we do, we just don't post it because it is always evolving and changing with vintages and wineries. I would be happy to email it to you if you would like.

    Hi Barbara, I am sorry - we don't have a Happy Hour. We did attempt it at one point but the guests' reception of it wasn't as enthusiastic as we had hoped. Now, we just keep our prices reasonable throughout the day.
