    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Farina's Winery is charming, with friendly staff, a relaxed vibe, no pretense.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The wines are solid, but full disclosure: I've always leaned California. That said, the wine is definitely approachable, worth sipping slowly, and the setting makes it easy to linger.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]If you're in Grapevine and want a winery that's not stuffy, Farina's hits the mark.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Just don't expect Napa-level fireworks -- this is Texas wine doing its own thing.

    Visited this place with some friends while visiting grapevine. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place seemed a very cute cozy Italian restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Upon arrival sadly the hostess did not seem very friendly or wanting to be there but maybe because the restaurant was closing in 30 minutes however still customer service is still very important. She took us to our table while slamming the menus and utensils on the table. However our waitress was kind so she made up for the hostess rude behavior. I ordered a basil pasta with chicken which was truly amazing. Overall great restaurant with great food but the hostess might need to use more training in providing great customer service.

    Another great restaurant on Grapevine's historic Main Street! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Large dining area, Bar adjacent. A bit dark inside. Small outdoor dining area out front.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very clean and well maintained.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was very good! Food was excellently prepared... hot and delicious. Excellent garlic bread. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The large front windows allow great view of Main Street as well as people watching![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's a definite must try if you haven't! We will definitely return!

    I had tried to come to Farina's in the past but at the time they were busy and even though I was seated with my party I was not served in a timely manner and ended up going somewhere else. I tried again and my experience was completely different. The restaurant is on main street with a plethora of other wineries and restaurants. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Farina's is cute and feels very authentic, and they have a large selection of wines and a decent amount of food options.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I came to eat before an event and I was seated immediately and the staff gave me a great wine recommendation. The wine was smooth, robust and fruity. It had all the best attributes of a red wine. I ordered the Margherita flatbread pizza. It was amazing! Beautiful tomatoes with loads of delicious basil and the crust was cooked perfectly, it was thin, crispy and the cheese was gooey. If I had more time I would have had another glass of wine. Next time I I'm in Grapevine I will definitely come back.

    Stopped by Farina's after landing at DFW on return home. Happy hour deals are only on select drinks but no food. I thought they used to at least offer discounts on pizzas? The half-order option for pasta dishes is nice since it is more than enough for one person / meal. However, with hindsight I would have paid the minimal $5 more to get a full order to take some home. Not only was the bar service by Corinne perfect as she is very personable without coming across as "fake", but her recommendation on the basil pesto pasta was spot on! Delicious! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great, casual atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] One of the better options on Main St in Grapevine.

    Baked Artichoke Hearts

    We came to Farina's Winery & Cafe for a quick snack and a cool down. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place does have an outdoor patio area with plenty of space however; it was too hot the day we went so we enjoyed the indoor seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Again plenty of room indoors and parking is along the street or parking area[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. The staff were friendly and welcoming. We had beverages and Baked Artichoke Heart with Garlic bread. All was delicious. Enjoy! :)

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute winery / restaurant in Old Grapevine.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Good service with reasonable prices. Flatbread / pizza was tasty, but could have been crispier (I asked for well done). Farina salad was very good.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance was old town Grapevine.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service: we sat at the bar. Service was lackluster. Not very attentive. Staff seems to just be going through the motions. Food: we only had wine. I had a Chianti. It was hot. Not room temperature but literally hot. Several degrees above room temp. What really bothered me was the ice machine and water pitcher right next to a cleaning faucet and cleaning bottle. Please don't tell me the water in the pitcher comes from this sink?!?!?

    Cheers!

    We stop in here occasionally for a drink while traipsing along Main Street. They have a good selection of both imported and domestic wines, as well as a solid food menu. The service here has always been friendly and welcoming. The one time we got a pizza (flatbread) here, we loved it. It was spilling over with toppings and tasted great. For Happy Hour, their specials are considered some of the best in town.

    The Christmas decorations were cute and it felt festive inside! We had a group of four and expected a wait since we didn't make a reservation, so we weren't surprised when the host said it would be about an hour and half. It ended up being about a 40 minute wait! Where we were sat it was super loud because a band was playing so it was really hard to hear anyone talk. My friend was very unhappy with her ravioli because she ordered the half portion for $15 and didn't expect it to only be three raviolis, which left her very hungry. Other than that, the food was good and the service was nice.

    Service is the best I've found in Grapevine. Food is outstanding. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Atmosphere is perfect.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice soft window light.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

The portions are also huge Our server was wonderful from start to finish. He was friendly, attentive, and checked on us often without being overbearing. The service was honestly the best part of the experience. We started with the Sichuan calamari, and this was easily the highlight of the meal. It was perfectly crispy, the glaze had just the right amount of sweetness and heat, and the seasoning gave it a nice kick without overpowering the calamari. It was one of the best calamari dishes I've had and definitely raised my expectations for everything that followed. Next was the tenderloin bruschetta, and unfortunately this one just didn't work for me. The flavors didn't come together, and it was much saltier than it needed to be. It felt like there were too many things happening on the plate without much balance. I wouldn't order it again. For the entrées, the Chilean Sea Bass was very good. The fish was flaky and cooked well, the risotto was creamy, and the sauce brought everything together without being too heavy. It was one of the stronger dishes we ordered. The lobster stuffed ravioli was another solid choice. The filling was generous, there was plenty of lobster on top, and the vodka sauce complemented everything nicely without taking over. It was rich but still well balanced. We also tried the New Zealand rack of lamb. This one had mixed reviews at our table. It wasn't as tender as I was hoping, but I didn't dislike it and again I didn't love it! The blackened exterior and the wine reduction gave it good flavor, but it just wasn't particularly memorable. My favorite entrée ended up being the tomahawk pork chop. The pork itself was juicy, flavorful, and cooked really well. I wasn't a huge fan of the pineapple bourbon glaze since I didn't think it added much to the dish, but the quality of the meat made up for it. We also had the strawberry spinach salad, which was fresh and a nice lighter option alongside all the richer dishes. Then there was also a side dish with green beans and almond and again no complains there. Overall, I left feeling a little conflicted. The service was outstanding, the atmosphere was great, and the portions were very generous. The food itself was a mix of really good dishes and others that completely missed the mark. After such an incredible start with the calamari, I expected the rest of the meal to be on the same level, but it just never got there. I'm glad we tried it, but I don't think it's a place I'd rush back to.
