Made reservations for today at 4:15 and the service provided by James was better than expected but…read moreI cannot say the same for the food and especially not based on managements approach. While making the reservation I made a note that our oldest son is autistic and non-verbal and his only form of communication so that staff was aware we decided to give this place a try. After spending close to $800 on food for our party we decided to exit the restaurant and that is when the problems began. As we were walking out another customer at the bar a patron at the bar decided to squeal at my son but also yell into his face. When who I assumed was her daughter realized we saw what was going on she covered her mouth and told her to stop. Being adults and understanding of others different situations we decided the best method was to approach the management team and explain the situation. I then approached a manger who was wearing a pink colored collared shirt and explained to her what happened and her response was "that hurts my heart, we do not stand for that and we will definitely do something about this." We waited outside for about 15 minutes to see what was going to be done and once we saw nothing was I went back in to speak to the general manager. This was definitely the worst part of the night. Tiana came out to speak to us and I asked her to speak on the side so that other patrons were not affected. Her response to me after explaining the situation was "since we did not see it we cannot do anything." I let her know that was an inappropriate response and that since it was a private business they could remove any patron for any reason but if they did not want to do that then she could just openly tell me that. I then gave her an example and stated "if I stab someone and you do not see it then you would not remove me?" Her response was "we definitely would," to which I stated that goes against what you just openly told me and she that there is damage from a stabbing. I then stated to her that physical damage is the same as emotional and mental damge just in a different form which she seemed to easily dismiss. She then stated that the first manager I spoke to was doing her due diligence to find out what happened and I then pointed out that that manager was actually waiting tables and we watched her do this the entire time so I was not sure when due diligence was being completed. We went around in circles, I asked her to give me the ownership information to which she stated "the owner is too famous for you to know," but eventually gave me the name which I had already searched for in my phone. At this point I openly stated that she could just tell me they were not going to do anything and that transparency would be more appreciated to which her response was "you are not currently dining in my restaurant so you need to leave my property." We did walk away but I hope that this is addressed and not pushed aside. All that to say, I hope this type of discrimination was not because we were Hispanic (the restaurant was filled with 90% Caucasian clients), because we were from out of town (from California) and mostly I hope it is not because the stance of the restaurant is not that people with disabilities matter less. I hope someone reaches out to me to address this concern and I hope no other family has to be a part of what we went through tonight. Tiana seems to be invested in the business and that is great but should also understand her customer concerns. Update to this review: Called this morning (2/17/26) and the hostess said she was not going to help me with any information, that I was a weirdo, to grow up and then hung up the phone on me.

Such a fun little stop at Arizona Stronghold Vineyards Tasting Room in Cottonwood, AZ. The staff…read morewas super helpful and made everything easy, and I loved getting to relax on one of their comfy couches with my boyfriend. It had such a laid back Sunday vibe. They had a deal where you could pick any three wines off the menu for $13 which was perfect for trying a few things. My favorite was the 2021 Lake Cochise Red, it tasted exactly like the flavor notes they described. Definitely somewhere I'd come back to soon.

This is an amazing spot to chill out, enjoy some wines, and taste the local variety of wines and delicious beverages. I actually came to the location, looking for Wi-Fi for a business meeting, and the owner was amazingly responsive, and ensured I had Wi-Fi credentials and a quiet place to conduct a meeting. Afterwards, we sipped delicious vineyard, quality wines, and took home a couple of bottles for our personal stash. This is a great place to stop and enjoy some great wine!

Location is gorgeous!! Beautiful setting and indoors is awesome…read more We were not impressed with the wines or staff knowledge. Nothing (notes on each wine) in print and we were encouraged to go on line to their site to find out more...but staff could not find anything on their own site (after we searched). We got step-ford wife style repeated information about the one wine we were interested in "Smoky front with green pepper ending." No table service - They poured a first taste - you had to go back and stand in line to get a second pour. 3 pours for $30 and they asked for tip. Forgot I wasn't in CA. Three stars for ambiance.

We had been in the car all day and we were looking forward to chatting about the wine and learning from the tasting room employee. We haven't been to Cottonwood in several years and thought it would be a nice chat. Nothing too involved. We didn't want to take her time from other customers. We just enjoy these types of interactions at wineries and that's how we learn about the wine, the industry etc. Well, we walked up to the bar and we were told to take a seat wherever we'd like. (There was only one other couple in the tasting room at the time, so it wasn't busy.) The employee told my husband, "we serve you like a restaurant here" and she gestured towards some chairs. My husband followed up and said "so, we can't stand at the bar?" She then became very rude and snippy and said "this is where I work." So... we grabbed a couple of menus and took a seat, but at this point we were so upset by how rude she was being that we couldn't enjoy the wine and I suggested that we leave before I said something to her about her behavior. To be fair, yes, the bar is where she "works." It's a wine bar and we were there to drink wine and I can't imagine any other work she would have to do that would take precedence over selling wine to excited customers who were interested in paying for a tasting and we probably would have bought a couple of bottles as well. I very much doubt that her boss would think that whatever "work" she was doing at the bar was more important than selling wine and taking care of customers. We aren't loud, we aren't annoying and we certainly wouldn't have bothered her if she looked like she was in the middle of some kind of project, but not to allow us to even stand there was just jaw dropping. I didn't get her name, but she had long black hair and looked late middle aged. Very disappointed. Appalled even.

In our most recent visit to the Cottonwood and Clarkdale area, we decided to check some wineries we…read morehad not had the opportunity to visit or try in the past - and right on highway 89A and convenient in our travels was Chateau Tumbleweed Winery. We have been amazed... that the Southwest and especially the Verde Valley area has so many viticultural qualities that stand out. Being somewhat connoisseurs of good vino we're always on the lookout for more extraordinary and delicious wines in Arizona. Wine enjoyment is very subjective, and our tastes may not reflect yours but what we have found here at the Chateau Tumbleweed Winery defines the regions wine eminence and potential. Of most the wines tried an overwhelming number we found to be of high quality. Their white, red, and rosé varieties are a refined sort, giving each a uniqueness that one can distinguish from other vintners. They have made a specific point of utilizing some of the best of the best vineyards across Arizona thereby designing their own distinctive approbation to their own product. Some our faves on our visit are the refined Cimmaron Vinyard Mourvèdre 2022, the pixelating Picford Blanc 2023, the refreshing Rex 2022 and the exhilarating Miss Sandy Jones 2023. We took some home! Miss Sandy, Mourvedre, Rose and Dos Amigos. Enjoying a few wine choices at their location is a relaxing, enjoyable and flavorful happening as they offer a calming and comforting outdoor patio area conducive to sipping and enjoying. If you're wine connoisseurs like us, you will enjoy a pause here for some refreshing and enjoyable sips on the patio.
