We had a wonderful visit here!…read more It is a beautiful setting, but still low-key and not pretentious at all. All the employees are grounded, friendly, and very knowledgeable. We also got a tour of their Italian winemaking equipment. The food was surprisingly good. Found out later that the chef has a Michelin pedigree. My filet was amazing! It came with bone marrow which was unique and very tasty. The views are incredible. The vineyards...Mt Diablo and the views of the clear night sky with low light pollution are breathtaking. Go for the scenery, stay for the wine and the food.

This was our first time at Shadowbrook, and unfortunately our last…read more The service was absolutely disappointing especially considering there's already a 20% service charge. When we first arrived we were seated right away and given waters immediately by our lovely host, after being seating it took 15 minutes for our waiter to even look at us and when she did she said "Do you know what you want to drink?", this was our first interaction. It took about 20 minutes to receive our wine and when she brought it to us she never let us taste the wine before pouring it, which I have never experienced at any other winery. After leaving it took an extra 10 minutes to receive our order of French fries, luckily the water machine was right next to us so whenever we needed a refill we could just get up and get it ourselves! We almost asked them to not even bring out the bread because it had been 45 minutes after ordering before it came to our table. I think we would have been more understanding if it was a busy night but it was the complete opposite. I could have driven all the way to Napa, been served, eaten a full meal, then home with my teeth brushed in bed by 8, but instead I'm at Shadowbrook waiting for my bread. Overall the food was great, the wine was excellent but the service was absolutely horrific! We felt overlooked and unwelcome from the start. Our server barely acknowledged us and gave the impression that we weren't worth her time while serving others next to us with enthusiasm. Unfortunately the 20% service charge did it for me, I wouldn't mind paying if it was worth it, if I could tip our waitress less I would.

We were served platters of tea sandwiches and tea cakes and offered 3 types of teas. The tea was delicious and the room was decorated nicely with pretty teacups. However, the service only included 2 tiny savory sandwiches per person and several teacakes that were substandard. The owner asked us how we liked it and I explained how hungry I was after getting so few savory items. She didn't apologize, nor did she offer to give us additional food items. It was quite expensive- $60 per person

This place is and will continue to remain one of the most beautiful venues in all of the East Bay…read moreArea. I had the privilege of planning my wedding here and my experience working with the owners was incredible. The Bhachus are gracious hosts in sharing this magical space because every time I've visited, there is always something new and different to admire. I respect how much love and care they've invested into property, with such impeccable taste. Being able to run ideas and have open conversations with Barbara helped make this journey of being a bride so empowering. I never thought of myself as a "creator" but that truly changed the moment I was able to cultivate a wonderful day in sharing this very intimate aspect of my life with loved ones. I would love to return for a wine tasting experience as it would be a great way to continue celebrating many more milestones~

Easy parking to run and grab the wine of your choice…read more My only criticism is some of the staff has to get knowledgable about Low alcohol wines as this is the trend and what customers are buying. Each time I have asked about a low alcohol wine the staff does not seem familiar with the question or a wine. Example of low alcohol wines would be Meiomi bright Pinot Noir, Arlow Cabernet Sauvignon, Bread and butter sliced chardonnay, Decoy featherweight , butter light chardonnay ect. They need to get familiar with low alcohol wines and start carrying inventory of the product.

Incredibly fair prices for a glass of sparkling, like I can't even believe that I'm getting away with this cost. The person pouring our wine was super helpful and glad to answer any questions they have. They also do food trucks on Thursdays. If you want food any day other than that, you can bring your own. Love this place, it's so cute

We have a passion for Rhone varietals (Syrah, Mourvedre, Grenache, Viognier), but also enjoy many other types of wine, including: Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Sauvignon Blanc, Sangiovese, and Petite Sirah. We source grapes from some of the most renown vineyards in the best winegrowing regions throughout the state, but are continuing to increase our focus on locally-grown, sustainably-farmed fruit from the up-and-coming "Lamorinda" sub-region of Contra Costa County. We are proud to be a founding member of the Lamorinda WineGrowers' Association (LMOWGA).
