   Wines are specifically from Argonza cellars, a Vintner in Chino. They have beers and specialty cocktails too. Apps and entrees were delicious but I would avoid the poutine if you want to have room for dessert. It was very filling - definitely for sharing with a friend and a drink but maybe not as an appetizer.

   Disappointed for the first Time at Vintner's Tavern. The service and people were great as always. However. Not sure if there is a new owner or new chef, but the food was very disappointing. The mussels and clams had a strong seafood flavor, you know the kind that you don't want and make you think it wasn't fresh. The cauliflower appetizer had nice flavor, but was limp and again didn't see freshly cooked. One ordered the Casarecci pasta and it was okay, but lacked flavor. Asked for extra parmesan and red peppers. Received the parmesan and paprika, not red peppers. Not sure what they were thinking. The other entree was the paella. It had the same bad tasting mussels and clams. There were several crushed clam shells in the dish that were only found when bitten on. Not much flavor and over not a good dish. Too many other good choices in places for dinner. Not sure we'll take a chance and return until we hear from other that it comes back to the old high standards.

   As usual our time at Vintner's was all we hoped for. The food was great and it was nice to see the menu had been changed up a bit giving us new choices. The staff are great and it's our go to spot when we want a great meal.

   Overall had a very nice dinner. Service could have been a bit better, but wasn’t bad. The ambiance has changed since I was here last (2 years ago) I do miss the live music hopefully they consider bringing that back. The food was very good. We tried some new things and would come back again. It was very clean, everyone was friendly. They also added a large outside tent area for outside eating.

   Excellent service in a beautiful wine-bar atmosphere. Nice varied menu with unique appetizers and wine list. Try the pork belly and croquettes! Great place! Highly recommend.

    We ended up sitting at the bar because it was to windy out. The resturant is owned by a winery, so only the wine is what the winery produces is served. If you like good wine, go somewhere else. No bar, just beer and wine. Supposedly they are getting a liquor license in a month. Food comes out quick. We had Nichole as a server/bar tender. She was great but overworked. All servers help each other which is good/bad. Food was decent, but not the greatest. For a $23 wage burger I think you would get something more than French fries.

    The appetizers were good. Mussels were excellent ( although we are not sure why a lot of the shells are cracked). The bruschetta was by far the best one. We got the risotto, good flavor but very salty, the pasta dish was salty too. We had an excellent server Jackie, very pleasant and very knowledgeable. Would have been nice for indoor dining to be cooler, but I do not think they opened the AC for early seating.

    This was a surprise find. We wanted to go to something different and we found this little place on OpenTable. It was delightful and the proprietor was genuinely nice. It's a small place with decent wine and food. We had a wonderful time there.

    Very small and when checking in they wanted to sit us next to the entrance. I asked to sit at an empty table at the side. Nope! So the only size available was next to the exit🤬. I wanted to leave!!! But the servers came and saved the day!!! So warm and friendly! So kind and knowledgeable!! The food was great!!! My Risotto was very tasty and our drinks and dessert was so delicious!!!! I forgot about the hostess’ rudeness and lack of customer service disappeared. Give them a try. We will be back.

    The overall experience is okay. The wine flight was very impressive. However, the food is way overpriced for the food quality. I ordered the herb-marinated chicken which was $28. The chicken skin was grilled so dry it's almost inedible. The sauce on top is too salty for my taste. I just don't feel like it's worth $28. It should be $18 at most. Very disappointed.

    From the moment we walked in the service was great. My sister has a dairy allergy and they were super accommodating to her needs and the wait staff were very educated on how the food was cooked. The chef even came out to speak with us. The wine and food are amazing. First time here and definitely not our last.

    We had a great evening catching up with friends, outside seating was a bit sketchy at first as the wind was blowing and the tent was really swaying. Service was a bit slow but the food was excellent! Limited menu, and not a full bar but overall a very pleasant experience. We will be back to try something different next time.

    Indirectly my husband and I ended up here by happenstance on a much needed, overdue date night...and this certainly made up for our lack of outings together this past year because this was such a nice experience. The company, service, wine, and food were amazing. The food was fresh, super tasty, and well portioned. Everyone - from the host, bartender, waiters, chef, and owners - were all so nice and down to earth. Definitely recommend for those special occasions.

    This was a really disappointing experience. We made reservations for 6:30, 2 weeks in advance. We arrived at 6:25pm only to see the two hosts smirking. They tried to get us to sit in their “outdoor seating” which was essentially a tent in a parking lot. It was too cold to eat outside so we said no. They asked if we wanted to sit at the bar to wait, so we did. We did not get greeted at the bar (and we were the ONLY two sitting there) for 15 minutes. After which, we got a glass of wine and then waited for another 30 minutes. The host came up only once to tell us they were trying to “get a table for us”. Then 45 minutes after our reservation time, they told us the table was almost ready. At this point, we were upset with the service and disappointed about the wait, so we decided to leave and go elsewhere. We told the hosts our decision, and they did not even apologize. HORRIBLE customer service, probably the worst I’ve ever experienced in my life. Will NEVER recommend and will tell everyone I know to steer clear. This is not how a business should be run. Please don’t ever give them your hard earned money.

    We very much enjoyed our dinner experience. Our waitress Jackie was amazing! The entire staff was so attentive and sweet. We ordered the vintners burger after our daughter got her kids burger. Omg soooo good and fresh and the fries were so good. We also ordered the bruschetta and the lettuce wraps, highly recommended. We ordered a flight of red wine and all of them were great. We finished with creme brûlée for dessert yum yum yum! We can’t wait to go back and try other things. I hope this restaurant grows and thrives!
