Amazing ambiance. If you have the chance to sit in the cave, definitely do it. The truffle gnocchi, salmon, and cave burger were very good. I would absolutely come back and get all of that again.

The food was really good! The seating format is so neat, its like you get your own private “barrel room”. They also serve cocktails from their distillery if you're not in a wine mood after wine tasting. Desserts were also fantastic. The whole experience is cool since you're actually sitting in a barrel cave!

We dined at the outdoor area with an amazing sunset mountain view. We liked the mixed (red and white) wine flight. Good appetizer/starter selection. Great service (attentive server). Enjoyed every minute.
