The wine was amazing, and the servers explained each wine and helped us with pairings. The charcuterie board was an added bonus!! The vineyard itself was amazing and the ambience of the restaurant was exactly what a vineyard should be. We took a walk around the grounds everything was well maintained and beautiful to look at. Well worth the drive from Minneapolis. We will be back.

Very good wines with several options for sampling--flight of wines, tableside tasting, or tokens…read more We opted for the tokens which is 5-1 oz tastings for $15. All of the wines we tasted were delicious. They also sell beer and soda for non-wine drinkers which is really nice. We ordered the charcuterie board which was also delicious. You have a choice of cheeses, meats and extras, all served with delicious, crispy and warm Naan bread. Will definitely be back. Just note that the address in Yelp is wrong!! The right address is 421

We are members of the Cannon falls Winery and they have grape picking events in the fall. I have…read morenot gone to one but plan on it this year. This latest wine pick-up party was held at their vineyard. They bused us all over to the vineyard from the winery, they had 3 buses going to and fro. Mask were required. They signed people in outside with a line that had social distancing, which was appreciated. They didn't cram the buses full and left plenty of seats open for distancing. This was our first time seeing the vineyard and it was in a nice location, not far from the winery. They let us walk around and see the grapes, they were just turning from green to purple so they were a bit tart. They had Nick's Diner cater food in for this event. It was walking tacos and they also had some wine tasting out there for the club members. We had the option of buying a bottle of wine at the Winery before being bused out there, so that is what we did. The walking tacos was the best food set-up so far since we have been members. They had the event out here to have more space to social distance. We enjoyed ourselves and signed up for the wine picking this year! I hear it is a good time! They also have events out here. Contact them for more details on that.

Alright. This place gets a lot of love as you can see by the other reviews. I'm not the biggest…read moreturkey fan, but I've picked up turkey's from this place 2X for Thanksgiving and the turkey fans in the fam all give it a thumbs up. I usually change up my seasonings on how I prepare it but everyone is happy. Honestly, this review is for the little store at Ferndale. It has all sorts of things in there that are unique and you won't see available at the regular places. The other thing is that the prices are decent and the quality is good. From cheeses, snacks to other meats and more. But what I'm writing about are the Chef Martin Käsekrainer Brats that they carry. A tasting was happening and I was blown away so I bought myself a package and just had them last night. Think cheese brats but made with an Austrian knowledge and swiss cheese vs cheddar. Wow! So good. So there it is. If you see Chef Martin brand brats, you should definitely try them. #chefmartinsausage #eatbettersausage

I had questions of different turkey products and found one of several t-shirted employees and she was a little rude that I would ask stupid turkey questions.

This small market is tucked just off the major commerce on West Main. The parking lot is hidden at…read morethe back. There are two major facets of the market: a food counter and a small grocery store that specializes in Mexican/Guatemalan goods. There were some fresh items, like produce, vegetables, and cheese, but most of the stock is shelf-stable. LOTS of ingredients. I'm from California, so the vibe reminded me a lot of home, though the Guatemalan items were new and cool. Like, the frozen tamales weren't wrapped by corn husks, but with banana leaves. We were there to order food to go. Tip: it's probably best to order by phone or online, because they do make everything fresh. We had about a 30 minute wait, which was okay, because it gave us a good chance to study the grocery store. The food is well worth the wait, too. We ordered birria tacos and a birria pizza. Like I said, I'm from California, and then my husband is from New Mexico. We have had... mixed experiences in getting authentic, flavorful Mexican food in Minnesota. This stuff? Legit. Generous fillings, lots of flavor. I'm sensitive to hot spices and this was at a perfect level for me--hot to my judgment, but the kind of pleasant hot that washes away when I have some water. The tears I experienced were from sheer nostalgia is getting delicious food that reminds me of home. We will absolutely be getting food from here again!

The extent of their COVID precautions is a plastic shield at the counter. I did not make a scene in the store, but I did call when I got home. I expressed my concerns politely and asked if the lack of masks was an anomaly or regular practice. He said that they have a plastic shield and a sign on the door to comply with the law, but customers can come and go as they please (with or without masks). I told him that the pandemic is real and unless they enforce mask-wearing, I will not come back. He said, "Fine!" and hung up on me. It is a bummer because they have delicious tri-tip roasts.

I love all of their breads (try the challah!) but my favorite is the Emmer Loaf. If they don't have samples of it out when you go, do ask. They're always willing to let customers try their wares. The cookies are terrific. The scones are terrific. The bialys are terrific. They've recently added cupcakes (and ice cream sandwiches in the summertime!), and the chocolate cupcake with strawberry butter cream frosting is so delicious it might just make you swoon a bit. They did a GF chocolate cake for Valentines Day that was to die for. And I'm ready to launch a campaign to keep the orange hibiscus sable cookies for Valentines Day on the menu during the rest of the year. Do you live somewhere other than Northfield?
