    First time at Redwood, and we were very pleased. The inside could use an update, BUT instead, they are providing excellent food and service. That far surpasses the old time feel. Our server was very pleasant and efficient. Our food was good and served up hot. My husband got french onion soup and the open faced prime rib sandwich. I got the roast beef on kimmelwick, and it was excellent served with au just and horseradish. The dessert case looked amazing, filled with a variety of pies, but we were too full to try. Definitely will go back.

    Bacon cheeseburger with fries

    We stopped here on our drive. The ambiance is very old school restaurant. I like the old school look, my wife likes a little more modern. She got a ham club and said it was really good. The bread is soft and fresh. All the vegetables look like they were just sliced and she said tasted fresh. I got a simple bacon cheese burger with fries. Burger was cooked as ordered and tasted good. I have been to places that have an aftertaste in the fries and this is not one of them. My wife ordered tea and they do not have sweet tea. Living in GA for almost a decade got her used to southern sweet tea. The waitress was very friendly and extremely patient with us. When there is a huge selection sometimes we take awhile deciding what to have. We didn't take the time to have desert since we have somewhere to be.

    Large older restaurant that they divided into what they call a dining room and a coffee shop. There are signs on the interior door stating which side is open. I was there mid day on a Monday. The dining room was being used for a banquet so we were in the coffee shop which has a long counter with stools and about a dozen tables/booths. They have a wide ranging American menu. I got steak and my companion got the Philly cheesesteak. The bread that came prior to my steak was good and soft. Side salad was small typical side salad. Baked potato was good. New York Strip Steak was decent size but had no flavor, wasn't tender and was undercooked. Philly cheesesteak was visibly dry and lacked sufficient cheese. Companion took one bite and couldn't get it down. Server was nice and fairly attentive. Single bathrooms are not ADA compliant. I am hoping there are more restrooms on the dining room side that are accessible.

    Grilled tuna melt

    Truth be told, I didn't think places like Redwood existed anymore. But they do, usually off the beaten path, and not always your first choice. Redwood was nostalgic, but nothing to write home about. That being said, Redwood got the job done on a busy day. Redwood wasn't our first choice for lunch. Our usual favorite spot had a wait time over an hour, and most other places were closing around the time we were ready to eat. Thanks to a combination of Yelp and Google Maps, we found that Redwood was still open and we decided it could work. The first thing you think of when you walk in is of how dated the decor is. You try to remember the last time you were in the local diner, with that wallpaper, that dessert display, that carpeting, etc. But it's not so bad to step back in time every now and then. We could seat ourselves, the place was hopping as much as it could be. Service was average, nothing special, nothing horrible, just right down the middle. You could do worse, and I certainly have. I went old school and got the tuna melt on wheat. I could feel the grease oozing off my fingers, but I didn't care. I hadn't had a sandwich quite like that in at least 20 years, and apparently it was exactly what I wanted in the moment. I had thought my body might rebel after the fact, and I was prepared to regret my choice. But nothing happened! It was a nice surprise on my part. I don't mind aging, but reacting to foods differently is a side effect I can do without. It was nice to have a break from that today, and now I'm set for awhile with greasy nostalgia stuffed tuna melts. Redwood is the type of place you stumble upon while driving through a smaller town, you go inside, and experience a bygone era. Granted, that's exactly what happened to us that day, but not an experience to forget. We got exactly what we thought we would from lunch that day, and that's really all you can ask for.

    We stopped in on our way through the area in the hopes that the salad bar was back open. No such luck, however, the food was good. Nothing we'd write home about, but it was sturdy, comfort, food.

    As you park...

    My boyfriend and I were pleasantly surprised to find such a local gem. Everyone was friendly upon arrival. A very sweet young lady took us right to the perfect table for two right by the window. The main eating room is spacious and has a 1970-80's warm-charm to it (love it). We started our meal with the potato soup and were extremely impressed-generous cheese and bacon bits above delicious soup. At first, it wasn't that hot and immediately upon request, or waitress returned with a much hotter bowl. We were in soup heaven! I was craving a ham and cheese club, but usually eat gluten free. I asked for it with lettuce instead of bread and my waitress said that they could do that. I thoroughly enjoyed my ham n cheese and the fries (my weekend cheat food) were delicious dunked in gravy. I really like our waitress. I don't recall our name, but jokingly she referred to herself as the "mean girl with a lot of tattoos". She was very personable, attentive and does her job very well. I would absolutely recommend anyone visiting the area to make this a top choice to eat. PS- we brought some leftovers for our traveling dog and he ate my boyfriend's mashed potatoes and gravy within 10 seconds. He also gave 5 stars so this is a really a 10 Star review!!

    We stopped by yesterday to have lunch after a morning on the wine trail and we were so glad we did!…read moreBefore we talk about the food, just want to give a shout out to our waitress who was just phenomenal-- I wish I would have caught her name! She was so attentive and quick to help if we had questions. We tried the sampler, and others at the table had different brats. Everyone said their meals were great-- the sampler is more than enough for two people, and can certainly be a snack for a group of four. Each of the brats are seasoned so well, but my personal favorite was the andouille-- it was spicy and seasoned to perfection with a crunch when you bite into it. The bread that came with the sample was also great- really crispy and warm! We were also able to try each of the sauces, and the banana pepper mustard and beer mustard are delicious! So much so, we bought a jar of the banana pepper mustard to take home with us. There were plenty of seats inside and outside the restaurant. Definitely would love to come support this place again in the future!

    I can't really sit here and say this was a positive or negative experience; it was just kind of odd…read morebut ultimately it delivered what it was supposed to. My cousin chums and I stopped by here on Labor Day after our mini wine tour in need of sustenance aka real food (a quality all of the wineries we went to were severely lacking in). From what I could tell, this is sort of an extension of the Arbor Hill Winery - to access Brew & Brats, we actually ended up walking through what I assume was Arbor Hill's main gift shop/wine tasting area, which sold more in the line of quasi-bougie condiments than actual wine. We briefly considered doing a third winery tasting here but I just didn't like the vibe, so we continued on to the back of the premises where this restaurant/bar was. Perfectly pleasant in there; the main establishment seemed to be centered on a barn-like structure (it almost felt like it had a former life as a ye olde general store, then got cleaned out to be a bar), though we ended up sitting/eating right outside in a little pavilion area with picnic tables (great weather for it). I also used the facilities at one point, which were unique - also a bit barn-like and felt very...temporary storage unit but not in a bad way, if that makes sense. Everything was spacious and clean from my perspective. When in Rome, I think you get brats. There was understandably a Bavarian-themed tinge to this menu, but heavily Americanized. So sauerkraut was a pretty pervasive ingredient, but it also had a lot of mainstream salad and BBQ sides. Interesting for sure. I didn't want to complicate things after multiple wine tastings, so I opted to get the Arbor Hill Sherried Wine Sausage with a side of baked beans. Honestly not bad; the marinating of the sherried wine gave it a nice fruity/sweet tinge. I'm more of a hot dog connoisseur when it comes to my weenies and I'm not a fan of condiments; even if I were though, something this flavorful probably doesn't need to rely on them. And I can always get down with a toasted bun. The beans were just okay; too sweet for my palate. I was expecting something more savory given the bacon, but literally every other ingredient drowns it out. I'd remove the brown sugar - if the sauce is already sherried wine-flavored, you really don't need to double-down. The service was honestly a little strange/awkward. Our waitress was friendly enough and given what we were ordering, it would have been insane if the wait time was more than 10 minutes or so (and it wasn't). We were in and out of there relatively quickly, giving us plenty of time to test drive our Airbnb hot tub. But she was very flustered and agitated throughout our stay there, constantly apologizing for the chaos and wait times, which were nonexistent. Every time she came to our table, it was accompanied by a flurry of, "Sorry, it's just been CRAZY with all of these people," which, given that there were literally two other parties and tons of empty seats just wasn't accurate and made no sense. My assumption is that they had a crazy lunchtime rush or something that she was still processing and/or recovering from, but I really don't know. Regardless, it didn't really detract from the overall meal or anything. The prices were out-and-out fantastic. For a legit entree and sides, casual as they were, $15 or so was a legit deal. This whole Naples area was generally pretty affordable, to its credit. Not really my kind of food in the grand scheme of things, but it was fine for what it was. Hope our waitress got a good night's sleep at least.

They have kept the original recipes and added a few other things. They have a Facebook profile will daily updates. This is helpful beyond measure. I would highly suggest ordering ahead of time because this place is so busy during grape/fall season. It isn't uncommon to see several cars parked going to get their goods. I picked up a vegan grape pie. This makes me so incredibly happy they offer this since I transitioned my diet to vegan because of medical issues. The still have the original version of pie too. The tarts are a perfect size dessert. They offer several varieties but my cravings are usually for their grape variety. They didn't have chocolate chip cookies ready yet, still in the oven, but the smell was amazing wafting out of their business. The grape cookies are a must. A soft sugar cookie filled with delicious grape filling. Honestly there is no bad choice in this place. Only downfall for me is they are a drive from home.. although they have been delivering pies to buy at casa larga winery and a few other businesses near Rochester.

    WOW! While my experience with Cindy's was brief, my love of the baked goods is forever. I stayed in…read morethe car as my partner headed up to the door to order our goodies. He ended up grabbing a grape pie, a raspberry pie, and a couple grape cookies. I might catch some heat for this, but I preferred the grape cookies to the grape pie ALLLLLLL day! We dipped them in coffee the next morning and WOAH. These cookies are completely life changing. Cakey with that same delish grape filling in the center, it is a cookie experience unlike any other. The pies were excellent too, with the grape obviously edging out the raspberry for taste, texture, and general enjoyment. While the raspberry pie is super tasty, the sweetness gets to you a bit faster than the grape. I also don't love the huge amount of seeds present in any raspberry pie. Regardless, super fair prices at this amazing shop and a must do in Naples.
