Other than that, an amazing atmosphere.

The steak was tender and perfect. But for $10.00 you get a tiny plate with the gnocchi. I will say it was very good just pricey. The food is expensive but service was good. I'm not sure if the health dept would agree that the dogsshould beg at your table. But we were comfortable with it.

The waitress didn't mention this to me, and since I have an allergy to peppers, I'm now experiencing a mild allergic reaction. I will definitely not be coming back.

If you're hoping for water, silverware, or the drinks you ordered, you may find yourself let down. That said, it’s still a great place!

They offered insights into their wine storage, shared the history of Tara Winery, and we even took a delightful stroll through the vineyard. The staff was friendly and attentive throughout our visit. I noticed that some reviews mentioned dogs, but I didn’t see any while we were there. The food was delicious, and we indulged in another charcuterie board paired with even more wine! I highly recommend trying the blueberry wine—it's delightful! It's a wonderful experience for a date—very romantic! I do agree with others that it leans towards the more expensive side.
