We waited 15 minutes with menus at a table and didn’t even get waters. This was after a 10 minute wait for a table, and the restaurant was not busy. Two servers and a host. Very poor experience on a slow lunch day.

We're so surprised at some of the negative reviews this restaurant has received because we had an absolutely wonderful night celebrating our anniversary at Vintage 1847! We arrived early and were told the table by the window my fiancé had requested was not quite ready yet, which was completely understandable, so we played checkers while we waited. When we had to wait an extra five minutes past our reservation time they comped us each a glass of (delicious) wine. Our waitress, April, was charming and attentive, and the food was so flavorful and excellently prepared. Plus the view of the vineyard and the town from up on the winery hill was so romantic and charming. This experience alone was worth the drive from KC to Hermann. We'll be back!

We went here for a mid afternoon lunch. The food was mediocre and the wait for food was long. Find another option

We were a party of 4 adults and one 15-month old, there to celebrate our 40th anniversary. The food was amazing. the wait staff were friendly and attentive, and the price was reasonable. We had an appetizer, some wine, and dessert with our meal, We left pleasantly full and very happy from the experience.

Definitely missed the mark. There were like 8 people in the dining room and waitress disappeared. We would have ordered at least $50 more food and wine. Everything was great until our food was delivered, and the waitress never came back…

Nice place to eat, one vegan option on the lunch menu, no vegan options on the dinner menue.

I've been going here for years, and it's normally one of my favorite places to eat. I made reservations for 4:45 and was sat promptly. The host was friendly and welcoming, and I had a choice of where I preferred to sit.

Potato Pancakes were ordered for the appetizer, as well as the French Onion soup. Entrees were ordered, and the potato pancakes and soup were brought out first.

By 5:40, the main courses hadn't been served. Highly unusual for this restaurant, but it was a highly unusual night. The place was slammed! I have never seen so many people come into this restaurant without reservations and promptly get turned away. Must have been around 100 people, and I'm actually afraid I'm underestimating.

My entree was brought out, and it was luke-warm. My Jager sauce was congealed, so i knew it'd been sitting for a while. I asked what was going on, and was told that there was a dinner rush, and the restaurant was under staffed. Okay, I can understand these issues, but, I made reservations in advance so things like this won't necessarily happen.
I was given a discount on my entree, which was very generous.

Wait time and customer service notwithstanding, something is off with this place since the COVID days. The menu downsized considerably, which I'm used to now, but the food is bland. It doesn't pop like it used to, and just all blends into one.
Even the Sherry in the soup wasn't up to normal standards.

Delicious from beginning to end!

Service and atmosphere is good, however the food is just OK, potato pancakes are basically hash browns and the potato salad is just OK, you cant really screw up breaded pork and gravy so they get a pass. However the prices reflect a better product than delivered. So this is 3 stars for my experience.

BEST French onion soup I've ever had!!!!! l get it every time we go there .we live in Hermann so we go fairly often .Cute little German resturant!! My wife always gets the ruban... I'm not a big fan of rubans...but that one is pretty good!!

Came here for the first time and loved it. I had the German Trio (pictured) and my wife had the Chicken Spatzel. We shared a bottle of Chardonel and a bread pudding for dessert. The food was top-notch, with some standouts including the house balsamic vinaigrette on the salads, the fork-tender beef saurebraten, the utterly delightful bread pudding and the bratwurst, but everything was outstanding. I will certainly come back again for that German Trio, as you cant get this authentic German food in Saint Louis where we live. I can't tell you how the rolls were as our server forgot to bring them, but except for that one little issue she was friendly, helpful and attentive enough without being overbearing. The wine isn't terribly expensive and tasted great but I was surprised to see that when you buy a bottle they plunk down two glasses and the bottle and it's on you to pour- not a problem for me at all, but in my years in upscale dining that's not how we presented wine and the informality of it surprised me a bit at a winery. As I said, not a problem for me but I was surprised.

This was an outstanding getaway in a charming converted stable, a really different dining experience that was memorable and delicious. The missing points in my rating are from the missing rolls and the bathroom which was very clean except for a really rancid smell that was clearly coming from the old urinal screen. Other than that, it was fantastic and I'd come again any time I'm nearby, recommend it to friends. And I'll probably occasionally make the hour and fifteen minute drive to indulge in great food in a neat spot.

We had a great dining experience Oct14th. Food was very good and Heidi our server could not have been better, she was very friendly and knowledgeable, checked on us just the right amount.
The manager stopped to check on us and the other tables. Very nice evening.
Highly recommend
