Since they serve food--a plus given the remote location--we were able to enjoy a full experience without needing to go elsewhere. We had the option to sit indoors or outdoors and chose the upper outdoor patio to enjoy the live music, while still keeping a comfortable distance so it wouldn't be too loud for Luna. I initially wanted to sit on the lower patio, which had heaters, but it was a bit of a walk to the bar and there weren't other guests down there at the time. When I mentioned being cold, a staff member kindly brought out a personal heater for me, which was a thoughtful touch. Several employees stopped by to chat about Luna--my favorite subject-and we bonded over our shared love for Labradors. The food and wine were both excellent; we even took home a few bottles. The view from this location was stunning--our favorite of the trip. It was the perfect place to sip wine, enjoy the scenery, and relax with our best pup by our side.

Her selections are impressive, small batch bottles, 5,000 in existence or less from around the world. She also has a strong meat and cheese selection and an adorable dog to boot. I will be back!

Not My First Time Here…read more.. Would have liked to write a better review but hoping this one at least stirs some conversation. First the Good! Excellent Server - Made great recommendations and knew the menu well. Very attentive. Food? Well both good and bad. Kids selection - minimal. Sliders or pasta. The sliders came out like hockey pucks. Pasta sauce was bland. Cocktails - Drinks here are VERY over-priced and how they have them structured and priced in the menu is just bizarre. Main meals were just OK. With exception was the trout dishes. These were delicious. Wait times - It took near 90 minutes to get our food from time of order. And the place was not that busy while we were there. Because of this, there was no apology or recovery in any way. Finally, wobbly tables and chairs ready to collapse. Will we be back after this last visit? Not sure. Many other restaurants popping up.

They no only have a baby changing cart, it is stocked with various size diapers, wipes, pads and tampons. Like ... !

Instead of a kind welcome or "can we help you find anything?" I got the "this guy looks shady" look. When I asked if they had any cardamom bitters, there was a notable difference in their demeanor.
