About Cave Cafe

Cave Cafe offers a unique dining experience with stunning views and a cool, tucked-away setting. Located in a tunnel, the restaurant stays nice and cool, with barrels creating a cozy, private atmosphere. Guests can choose indoor or outdoor dining, including a turf area with live music where they can enjoy food and drinks. The service is friendly and attentive, with staff providing good customer care. The menu features a variety of dishes such as sandwiches and high-end steaks, with new options being added regularly. The cafe offers a selection of wines, including sparkling pineapple and moscato, though some wines may sometimes be out of stock. Food choices include the club sandwich, ahi salad, and birria empanadas, all praised for their freshness and flavor. Highly recommended dishes are chimichurri steak, fries, and charcuterie with port and sage infused cheeses. Desserts look tempting, but many guests find it hard to leave room for them. The atmosphere and views are highly praised, making it a popular spot for a lovely meal and a great overall experience. While service can be a little slow, guests enjoy the relaxed pace, especially in wine country, and appreciate the friendly staff and excellent wines. The experience is especially special since diners sit in a barrel cave and can even enjoy cocktails from the distillery if they prefer over wine.
