The mint mojito she made me wasn't a drink... it was a religious experience. I don't know what she put in it (mint? magic? a degree in mixology from Hogwarts?) but I considered texting my ex just to tell her I've finally found happiness. Now let's talk about the Sol Fish. I ordered it like a normal person. I did NOT expect to sit there in silence after the first bite, staring at the wall, re-evaluating my life choices. Perfectly cooked. Light, flavorful, disrespectfully good. I almost asked for a moment alone with it. At one point I considered clapping. In public. Like people do when the plane lands. Mezzo, you did your thing. Cheryll, you are a national treasure. I will absolutely be back. 10/10. Would let this meal ruin all other mojitos for me again.

I had never had an aperol spritz drink but was pleasantly surprised and I hope future aperol spritz's I try will be as good as this one. Rigatoni bolognese was delicious. The pistachio cannoli was the best of all the items I tried and especially unique - a must try if you come! The restaurant itself is a beautiful place to dine - very elegant. A must try if in the Stockton :)

If you are new in town, it could be a bit tricky to find the complex as the GPS will direct you to gas station, but behold: the food complex is behind the gas station, so just go for it.

I followed with Vin de Days, Maurer Red Fruit November and finished with La Miche Cab Sav. While not quite a fan of the RFN, I did enjoy the La Miche for its savoriness- a perfect dinner pairing wine. Before heading out for my next adventure, I decided to do a glass of the Alta Colina Downslope Red and finish a few chapters of my book. I don't know how to accurately describe wines- but my version, again savory and hearty but not heavy- another good wine for a nice meaty dinner. (Bearing in mind, of course, that I'm also no pairing expert!) Ever After has a unique offering of wines and I look forward to popping in again with some friends! I also plan to check out some of the events I've heard mentioned in my time here. Also... they're preparing for a prix fixe event tonight- it smells absolutely amazing!!

    Michael David winery is one of beautiful winery in Lodi…read more Parking: free plenty in its own complex Inside, it is decorated like a resort with waterfall, lush gardens Its most popular wine: freakshow is totally delicious. It also hosts private events for its member here and there. I was lucky to be invited to their members only event with hula dancers show and meals. I have been to Napa, Sonoma and Paso Robles. I am glad to come across this beautiful winery in Lodi.

    A very beautiful property with a bit of a 'touristy' edge…read more Friends had introduced us to Freakshow wines from here and we decided to give it a try and visit the winery. Although the grounds are very nice the entire experience was a let down. The tasting room is very utilitarian and not at all what I expected for a comfortable wine tasting experience. Although there are a multitude of pleasant outdoor spaces to linger and lounge while sipping wine it seems set up and better suited to small groups of 10 or more. There's a restaurant in the main tasting room that was packed crowded. The offerings must be good. The ambiance was similar to a Cracker Barrel. There's lots of merchandise for sale and I was surprised how basic the place felt, nothing special. When we asked at the tasting counter if we could get a glass of the Petite Petit, the wine we were introduced to by friends, the answer was a very gruff and emphatic, NO. The man seemed annoyed we asked. It would have been nice to be offered an alternative. That really turned me off although we ended up buying two bottles anyway. So, Freakshow. Rather strange and peculiar labeling and marketing, but it does catch one's attention. I had to wonder if the inspiration came from the TV series American Horror Story of the same name? The Petite Petit is a deep hearty rich blend of red wine with a lot of depth. It isn't very expensive but the taste is both bold and rich. It was nice walking around the outdoor areas and gardens but there didn't seem to be much energy out there, maybe a weekday and/or too early in the days? I had to wonder if they get folks coming off I-5 since the major highway is so close. Hence the more basic tourist approach. In any case it's an OK place but in short order I was ready to move on to another winery.

    Great spot for a casual meal downtown. I've been here several times and the food is always solid…read more Parking can be a little tricky since it's in a busy area, but there's a small lot and some street parking. We came for Sunday lunch with family and were seated right away. Our waiter was great -- he checked in on us regularly and even refilled our drinks without us having to ask, which was a nice touch. I ordered the Greek salad with added salmon (+$8) and it was a great choice. The portion was generous and came with a slice of focaccia. The salad had mixed greens, olives, artichokes, feta, and red onion with a really tasty balsamic vinaigrette. Our table also ordered a cheese pizza, Caesar salad wrap, and the chicken pot pie. I had a bite of the pot pie and it was incredible -- definitely ordering that next time. Bonus: they offer a free wine tasting with the purchase of a meal, which is a fun extra. Everyone enjoyed their meal and we'll absolutely be back!

We got the foccicia bread basket as an appetizer and it was really good, herb, olive oil, soft bread like a sponge. The chicken pot pie was excellent, full of flavor, great crust and good filling. I got the French dip, it was probably one of the best I had in a while. The au jus was the best part, thick, flavorful along with a strong creamy horseradish. Service............. Not so much. For a big place that was maybe 40% occupied, it was soooooooooooooooooo slow. One server from what I see, 2 bussers, and 5 others standing around chatting. Took a good 30 mins to get seated (there was tables available), though we got to go to their tasting room, and got a bottle of wine; another 20 mins to get the server's attention after getting seated and probably another 40 for the food to come. That was probably the most irritating.

Security will comstantly hit on your drunk friends and no one stops them, this is even when the women are clearly not interested. It is extremely uncomfortable. The music is awful, you have to make the best of it. But after going there for a couple months the music is simply catered to a white and latin crowd. I do not hear anything current or relevant when I am there. Me and my gf usually go there because its close and thats it. We are usually the only ones that truly dance and are the reason alot of folks said they enjoyed their time (even though they agree the music and atmosphere sucks- it looks like NY ). We have never got offered free drinks or anything complimentary for attracting a crowd or bringing friends. Everywhere else, this is usual when attracting customers for a bar. Too much staff... It is not POC friendly. I have heard almost everyone I know complain about the demographics and the bad music. I also see alot of DL men hovering by the bar in bulk so I am guessing it may be catered to them they tend to by the most drinks. I have had many friends there make the same statement. Overall, just leave this one alone and go to Islanders. More POC, more diversity in staff, no awkward fake moments with the Owner (who is as uptight as they come), and more fun people. You will likely leave aftera couple drinks.... Thats what they want. They scam and play a couple fo songs so you buy buy buy and leave without dancing or if you do its to 50 cent and Lil John like you in 8th grade Bad business.... Trust me. I dance all the time. I try to be nice to the DJs because I can't tell if their fault or the owners either way. I won't go unless I am desperate. Unfortunately, this business doesn't keep up with the times. No stars from me. Staff is creepy. If you are a drunk woman stay tf away because the bartender or security will get at you and keep bothering you all night.

They had a dj but the music isn't too loud that you can't carry on a conversation at the table. It was great music and set the tone for more of a chill vibe (versus other R&B brunch spots that have more of a club/day party atmosphere). V's Paradise is modern elegance, yet not pretentious. It's beautiful. It is located front & center in Old Sac, so I saw quite a mix of customers come in, from the super casual tourist, baseball fans, dressed up couples, and trendy fashionistas. I made a reservation for 11am, but it really didn't get busy til after 12:30pm. I think once the word is out that they have weekend brunch (with a dj), you'll definitely need to make reservations. The dining rooms are gorgeous (restroom too!). Love the velvet furniture and all of the gold and marble accents. V's would make an impressive and sexy date night, or for just any special occasion. I sipped on a mango lemon drop ($15) at the bar while I waited for my friends. With brunch I ordered the most expensive sangria ($18) I've ever had, and it was strong, fruit forward, and beautifully presented. I would order this again. For our mains, we had the roasted vegetable panini ($19) with fries, the burger ($24) with potatoes, and the bacon and eggs ($22) with potatoes and sourdough toast. My panini was good, nothing great. I think they could've used a thinner bread, instead of a hoagie. The crispy matchstick fries were delicious. I asked for a side of ranch, and our server Tyler informed me it was and extra $4! WTF? Really? I didn't need ranch that badly. I do appreciate Tyler for letting me know in advance though. I bet people have complained that they didn't know about that absurd extra charge when they got the bill, and the restaurant had to eat the cost. Kudos to Tyler for avoiding that incident with me. LOL He also saved my friend from ordering the $175 tomahawk steak. She was thinking it was something else and didn't even notice the price. When she ordered it, I looked at her like she was crazy, and Tyler politely steered her away from that suggesting if we we all wanted to share it. The tomahawk is 48oz of meat! She got the bacon & eggs instead. LOL I loved the vibes and the atmosphere of V's. Service was great. All of the staff I came in contact with were friendly and welcoming. Tyler was professional and polite. A great addition to Old Sac.
