    Such a cute little spot! Great service and live music. If you're debating about stopping, just stop!

    Went today with friends. Had the red wine flight...rose', montepulciano and the Tempranillo...liked them all but not enough to buy. Had the meat and cheese plate...yum. Ann (sommelier) was sweet and knowledgeable. Flagship winery is Big Springs winery (which we visited today as well) BUY LOCAL SUPPORT LOCAL

    Red and White flights

    Had a great time at Sidecar. Stopped in for lunch and a flight of wines as our first stop in Dripping and really enjoyed the setup. Lunch is from a food truck (trailer) on site. My group tasted reds and whites and all were very tasty. Food was good - had burgers and they were good quality. Setup was nice with covered tables outdoors or an indoor option. I didn't check out the brewery onsite but did see some guys partaking in the brews. I would not hesitate to return.

    Wine selection and food menu.

    Top of the hill on the wines! This place rocks and yes I would recommend. They also have beer. They have a small food menu with homemade empanadas and cheese trays . If you have a sweet tooth they have chocolate bars that pair well with wine. So check this place as a must do! We love it.

    This place is so cute!!! Amazing service. Delicious empanadas. Love the rosè! We sat outside under the oak trees and enjoyed the scenery. Perfect first stop of our bachelorette weekend!

    This little place is amazing!! A very welcoming and clean environment and have a nice selection of wines. Also the cheese and meat platter is so good!! We stopped by on our way to Dallas. You definitely have to check it out!

    Great little place to go taste and snack! We had a flight of the white and red and they were great. We had one of each of the empanadas and all three were so good! I'm not sure where they get those things but they are amazing. My favorite was the bbq one. They also have games you can play. Would be a good place for a date!

    Red wine tasting

    Pretty good wine tasting. We did the red wine tasting. My favorite wine was the Tranquillo wine. $15 for 3 wines which is a little weak for wine tasting but the cool ambience made the trip worth it and the portions weren't weak.

    Absolutely great place to stop by if you are in the Dripping Springs area. The service was top-notch and the decor is really eclectic! They have wine flight options or you can enjoy a glass if you chose. The server was incredibly knowledgeable and had great recommendations for everyone in our group. She let us try what we wanted before committing to our drink of choice. I ended up going to wine cocktail called the Texas Kiri and it fresh rosemary in it which I though was a nice touch! They also have live music outside and plenty of areas to sit and enjoy listening to it. Definitely try this place out!

    $15 red wine flight.

    Visiting from California and we wanted to go wine tasting and this was a winery nearby so we decided to give it a try. No regrets! Anne was very welcoming and friendly. She also gave us information on other wineries/breweries/distilleries to try. I had the $15 flight of reds and she also gave me an extra cup of red wine, Needy B*tch, I ended up buying a bottle! I finally found a great bottle of red that I actually enjoy, sad that I can't get it shipped to me in California. Drippin' Sweet is also great, bought a bottle as well. Love the descriptions given to the wines it made them sound all delicious. And they were! (According to all the ones I tried).

We signed up for their guided tasting experience which was amazing! So educational and informative. In addition to the special edition olive oils & balsamic vinegars curated for the tasting, we were allowed unlimited samples of their infused flavored olive oils as well, which were absolutely delicious! This place offers quality olive oils and balsamic vinegars at very reasonable prices. We ended up taking home several bottles- their Sola Stella, Terra Verde, & Sicilian olive oils as well as their Traditional Balsamic and Bourbon Balsamic. After the tasting we enjoyed a light lunch at their bistro, which was delightful. Farm to table, fresh food paired with a bottle of Chardonnay made for the perfect end to our experience. Highly recommend!

Definitely gave us a better idea of what true olive oil should taste like (most store-bought olive oils are adulterated with seed oil). We also were able to taste three of their specialty balsamic vinegars, which were outstanding. I left with a bottle of their wild cherry balsamic to mix with my next old-fashioned drink at home. Their bistro serves a great menu. We sipped on their tasty wild cherry and peach sangrias (made with their balsamic vinegars) and thought that their lemon caesar salad with chicken was excellent. We might come back here for lunch if we visit the area again.

Service - we have been here about 4-5 times, but service has never been too great or too friendly. The bar on the beer side is always pleasant but the tasting bar side always has a bit of a tiny rude vibe - and I don't mention it ever but I'm in the wine industry and we don't see this normally. Also tonight we were asked to move to a different table as they didn't prepare for a Harry Potter event ahead of time just as we settled in after a rough day (and our young pup finally chilled out). It felt we were being pushed out and the other table was by the window/door that was glass so I was cold. My senior mom was cold after we had found a great spot that was warm for her. Live music tonight was also quite off - I wouldn't suggest this place anymore. I'm not sure if in the last year it has gone down hill but it's no longer worth the drive for a mediocre experience. They gave many potential beautiful spaces but they don't utilize them, nor update them, so the vibe is just outdated. No music on the speakers can be heard when there isn't live music. So sorry to not write the best review here but it's honest.

I enjoyed my time here. Don't forget to get some gelato on your way out. The service was spectacular and the waiter was so knowledgeable about the menu . Now, let's get into what I ate. Appetizers: Bread- I'm not sure what the proper name for the bread is, but it was so good. The bread was like a warm hug. It had a welcoming taste. I can't even explain it fully. The texture was phenomenal. It was like a cornbread and a roll put together. Artichoke fritters- This dish surprised me. I didn't expect to like it so much. It was fried to perfection and flavorful. I honestly didn't need the sauce . Meatballs- The meatballs were the best I've had in my life. They were covered in a well prepared sauce. Entrée: Snapper with pesto pasta- My snapper was very flavorful. The only downfall of the snapper was the size. For the price, I expected a whole snapper. The pasta was good, but I'm not a huge fan of pasta. I also ordered brussel sprouts. The brussel sprouts were cooked very well. Dessert: Biscoff and almond gelato - This was a perfect ending to to a wonderful meal. The gelato flavors change often. I will definitely go again!

The zucchini blossom appetizer was promising, but $18 for four pieces was ridiculous. The arugula salad ($12) was basic but fresh, and large enough to share. My penne alla vodka with chicken added ($27 total) was a substantial serving, but was served just warming and about the same quality as a pre-pack pasta dish from HEB. I had a lot left over that I opted not to take home. My husband's meat lasagna ($25) was served hot and was also a decent portion size, but he said it was pretty mediocre and the sauce tasted like it was from a jar. In short: if they're going to charge these kind of prices, their dishes need to be elevated and have something special enough about them to justify the cost and to bring you back. Based on our experience, I'm sad to say we won't be back unless there are some significant changes.

Now the important stuff: the food. Started with a peach burrata that was ABSOLUTELY incredible. Bread was fresh, it was a light dish that packed a ton of flavor. We split one of the salads which was also incredible and packed with flavor (which you really have to do because people rarely say things like "I would love a salad right now.") I ordered the chicken Parmesan and it was probably the best chicken parm I have ever had in my life.the chicken was fried perfectly, the sauce was light but extremely fresh, and the pasta was cooked to perfection! My wife had the pasta with mushrooms in it, so I didn't touch it, but she said it was one of the best pasta dishes she has ever had. NY Cheesecake was incredible and a great way to end the meal. Highly recommend this spot if you are in the area! You will not be disappointed!
