This is my first time entering Ivanhoe and Homestead winery. I'll do a separate yelp review for…read moreHomestead since we're talking wines on that side and beers on this one. What actually prompted me to come here today was my disappointment with 903. I had gone there with my wife for their Oktoberfest and to pick up a collectible stein and again, even though I got there much earlier, they supposedly were already sold out even though for the whole 45 minutes to an hour that I was there, I kept seeing other people being given Steins, but that's gonna be on my 903 review. This is all about Ivanhoe. So after leaving Sherman disappointed, we decided to hit Main Street liquor to pick up some Buffalo trace which is pretty much hard to find everywhere around here. After that, my wife had suggested we check out Homestead winery. We walked in through Ivanhoe and were pleasantly surprised with the fact they were doing Oktoberfest as well and had a really nice decorated brew hall. The ladies were dressed to impress and very politely offered me a stein, and I did a double pour of their Märzen. It was so much better than the one I had just had not even half an hour ago down the street at 903. That one was watery and flat tasting, this one had all of the hints and notes of a good solid Märzen. I was very impressed with it and also their level of service. Very friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately we have missed the Oktoberfest band, but we did stick around to catch Van Ulrich in the evening, ended up staying there for several hours and drinking more beers and wine from their neighbors. I also tried their peanut butter stout which I also found to be delicious. 2 for 2! I believe we were helped by Anna. She was really friendly and even sat down with us for a bit. The whole time we were there, we felt like we were in someone's house as friends sharing a drink, which is the feeling that all brew and wineries, no matter how big or small, should strive for. We will definitely be going back again very soon thank you.

Went back to try this place again after enjoying the first time. Second time around was a far worse…read moretime. After promoting their "summer kickoff" specials, we had plans to meet friends here to enjoy. Upon walking in, the place was nearly empty except for one other patron. It was dark, around half the lights were out. We approached the bar and waited... and waited. We went to the winery side to see if there was anyone, and there wasn't any employees there either. Went back to the bar side to wait again, and eventually got fed up and left altogether. Now I'm not sure if we would give it another chance. I was quite disappointed after enjoying our first time there

Very nice crisp atmosphere. We had a wonderful meal and the view of the water was relaxing. (Not…read moresure where the other reviewer was sitting but the water is a prominent view from the dining room). A lovely experience all around. The mango coconut shrimp was great. The shrimp and lobster risotto were very good and the salmon was quite tasty. The chef came to check on us and was quite genuine.

Where do I start? We had reservations for 11am. When we pulled up the gate was closed. It was…read morepouring down rain and windy. Called my daughter she had already arrived and said the gate was open when they got there. So guess who gets to open the gate in the rain? Me, in the rain and dressed in my new Easter attire. We were quickly seated, and presented with the Easter Brunch menu. A waitress came by and took our drink orders. She brought them and then we sat and waited and waited. No one knew who was taking care of our table. We finally placed our order and the food arrived at 11:53. The 12pm patrons started arriving. My son in laws order was wrong 3 times. So we didn't get to all eat together waiting on his correct order to arrive. We were apologized to profusely. The sweetest employee kept apologizing over and over. We came here last year for Easter and will probably return next year. The saving grace was the arrival of the Easter Bunny and the indoor Easter egg hunt. #DenisonTexas #GraysonCounty

Cajun fried pickles were also great. Second time I went with a group and the waitress forgot to take my order, took forever to bring the food so it was cold, and hardly ever checked on us or our drinks and my food was overcooked and soggy/oily. The location is great with great parking. I am going to file away the second time as a problem with the staff.

Live music rollin' on the back covered patio, cool breeze blowin', and folks kickin' back enjoyin' the night--just about as perfect as it gets That tap selection? Whew... they got more choices than a cowboy's got excuses. Something for everybody, and it was flowin' smooth all night Now let's talk food... we grabbed some chicken wings and I'll tell ya straight--those things were spot on. Cooked just right, full of flavor, and didn't last long on the table And if you're feelin' a little competitive, they've even got corn hole set up so you can toss a few bags while enjoyin' the tunes and the crowd All in all, this place has got that perfect mix of good music, great food, and a laid-back vibe that makes ya wanna stay a while. Cowboy verdict: We'll definitely be ridin' back for another Friday night under them patio lights

The turn over seems high since every time I'm there the employees are different.. Today I sat at the bar. Ordered a water and menu. Then she walked away. I just wanted to place my order but after waiving her down twice and she didn't return I walked out. Once you order this place takes awhile at times. Hope this doesn't continue. Not sure when I'll return
