The service was outstanding. Connor C. was the most incredible server we've ever experienced in the area. His attention to detail, his memory, his customer service focus, made our first night in the wine country most memorable. The landscape and vibe was just perfect for small gatherings and great conversations with friends. Many laughs and great times were had next to the fire pits. Thank you Connor from all your new Louisiana friends.

I met a friend at the Front Room at John Ash for early Happy Hour last Wednesday. I hadn't been there since it was purchased by Jackson Family wines. The Happy Hour menu is much more limited than in past years, and no longer a real bargain.
I ordered ordered a gin and tonic, and at $10 was nice and refreshing. I also ordered the truffle parmesean fries and the street fish tacos (3).
There was tons of grated parmesean with the fries but there was no cheese on the fries. None of the parmesean would stick to the fries as it was grated too large. Also, truffle seemed to be missing as I could find no trace of truffle "taste". The fries were cooked just right, though $12 for Happy Hour fries just doesn't seem right, especially since there didn't seem to be any truffle anywhere.
The Street Fish Tacos were a huge disappointment. There was no discernable flavor. No real flavor anywhere: the fish, the crema, the lime slaw, the tortillas. Bland. And if there was pico de gallo anywhere I sure missed it. Three very small tasteless street tacos were $16. They used to be my favorite. Not anymore.
Our server, Monica, was superb! She was attentive without being invasive. Monica was very professional, informative and welcoming. She exhibited a delightful sense of humor and sweet personality. Definitely a four-star employee!
I understand the new owners will soon be reimagining their menus. I'm looking forward to trying the Front Room (or whatever they might decide to call it) again in the near future. DH

Very nice, very popular spot. Excellent bartenders. Matthew in particular is amazing. I find it very pricey, but Excellent. They do have a very popular happy hour.

This was our first visit to the Front Room, and it was great! We sat at the bar for Happy Hour (3-5p) and enjoyed delicious drinks and then ordered the fish tacos (added avocado at the suggestion of the bartender), and they were fantastic...so good that we ordered more. We shared an order of oysters...also fresh and yummy. The bartender made great drinks, was pleasant and helpful. We will be back.
Matt Smith
Tasty food and wine, in a cozy atmosphere. And, other than the server not asking us if we want water (we did), the hospitality was good. Mi amore, Suzanne, and I will definitely be back!

I stopped in for the last 15 minutes if happy hour. I ordered the fish tacos, and a Negroni. Both had complex and delicious flavors. It was lovely. The bartender was very sweet and patient while I chattered at him about Stanley Tucci and Negroni trivia. I told the bartender that I was killing time before picking up my husband, and he said well this is a great way of doing it. He was so right. It was a very pleasant half hour.

Service can be hit or miss but the atmosphere and food is great. The chairs are getting very worn and uncomfortable to sit on.

After the Covid reopening, the safety was priority but the usual good food and value diminished to higher prices and little attention to food quallity!

There are more credits to the chef on the menu than items to order. Bite sized portions. The staff wasn't friendly. However, the ambiance is great. nothing remarkable about the flavors.
Jackie Peterson
Always a good experience there

Love coming here for drinks or a quick bite to eat. We live close by and it is definitely the best restaurant near my house. We lost quite a few restaurants in the area, but the food and drinks is always consistently good here. Love coming here
