So glad we got to try this place! A girlfriend and I went here last night for a late supper and wine and it was very nice. Firstly, what great service! We called them at 8:40 and told them we were on our way. They told us the kitchen closed at 9 but they'd wait for us. We got there at 8:55 and felt like we needed to rush. The server and hostess told us not to worry at all, to take our time and left us with the menus. They came back to take our wine order and didn't rush us on the food order at all. The wine list was pretty good though I was sad that I didn't see any local wine offerings. We sat out on the patio which was very large and really nice with views of the surrounding mountains and the "fire bowls" (I have no idea how else to describe them) were a very nice touch.
I enjoyed a glass of the Montepulciano and the pour was generous. It was a nice glass to have with my meal.
Food was great and came out really fast! I had the spinach and strawberry salad and added sirloin (I like alliteration in my food, apparently). The regular sized salad is gigantic! I had half for dinner and half for lunch today. The flavors in the salad were awesome; the goat cheese was mild and not over-powering, the spinach was very fresh and not wilty at all, steak was well cut and cooked with no fatty bits or gristle and the dressing worked together to balance the sweetness of the strawberries with the tang of the cheese and the mild spice of the beef.
It's a far drive for me but I am sure I will be there again when I'm up that way visiting friends.
