Four of us stopped in for lunch on Sunday. The weather was nice so we opted for outside seating. We ordered baked Brie (excellent) and roasted cauliflower (ok) for appetizers. Also had some beer, wine etc. etc. For entree we ordered a large baby spinach salad (ok) and a custom made vegetarian pizza (delicious). For dessert, we shared the Cannolis (ok, cannolis, awesome cream!)Our challenge was our waiter! He kept disappearing for long stretches of times! We didnât get the bread until after we had finished our appetizers! When he was there, he was efficient but he must have been having a bad day, as we never saw him smile! We even had to ask another waiter to call him so that we could place our entree orders! It took us nearly two hours to finish our lunch. Fortunately we were in no rush. The other waiters seemed nice and friendly so it wasnât the establishment, it was just him. Recommendation: good food, easy parking, hopefully you get a different server.

We took our granddaughter here prior to the Nutcracker. We loved the choices - these fondues with veggies and bread, or meats in a variety of sauces.Wine choices were good, and chocolate dessert was to die for. Very convenient for the Bankhead Theatre.

This is our "go-to" restaurant for special events, such as birthdays and anniversaries.Expensive, but well worth it. We live five minutes away, making this an easy UBER trip.

Sometimes one reads reviews on this website and comes away with quite varied opinions, and that was somewhat the case with this establishment. Nonetheless, we thought there were heaps of menu choices, including a varied selection of sides, along with another list of upgrades to the sides (so think double the side choices!). The two-meat platter was huge (half ribs and half chicken) and could easily have been shared. The beans were tasty, and the waffle fries fine. Several choices of sauces available at the table, and brisket chili was filling. Service was quick, attentive, pleasant, and never let our drink glasses get to empty. Quieter outside, and it is true that the inside can get noisy when the place is full. Best recommendation -- we'll come back!

We were there for lunch, which was good and quick. Even though the place was busy, we were seated right away but not rushed out afterwards. The food came quickly - burgers were nice and juicy and everything fresh. They have a wide selection, including gluten free. Check the menu on their website. Reasonable prices

We were very much looking forward to our visit tomThe Restaurant at Wente Vineyards, and it surpassed our high expectations. Everything about the evening was superb.To start with, the restaurant itself is in a lovely building, and is beautifully decorated. We were greeted at the door and quickly ushered to our reserved table. Our splendid server, Kathy, made us feel welcome right from the start. She guided us through the menu and helped us make excellent choices. We started by sharing the Market Salad, large enough that we could easily split/share it, a lovely dish with a variety of greens, grapes, applewood bacon, hazelnuts and cheddar cheese. Since we dined in the month of November, virtually the entire wine list was available for 50% off, and Kathy suggested the David Clinton 2014 Old Vine Zinfandel, a mouthwatering, small batch offering which paired beautifully with the Pork Chop, which was served over creamy polenta with red peppers. It was an absolutely incredible dish, and the portions were so large that despite our best efforts, we had to resort to doggie boxes, since we couldnât pass up the opportunity to have the leftovers and enjoy the meal a second time.We finished with the delectable Flourless Chocolate Cake, served with ice cream and nut brittle. Needless to say, we shared the dessert and left not a single crumb on the plate.We canât wait for our next visit to The Restaurant at Wente Vineyards. It is definitely a place to visit and re-visit many times.

Enjoyed a nice dinner at Sabio at a window table for 2 (definitely make a reservation). We ordered the olives, manchego, flat iron, octopus, 4 draft beers and Valrhona Chocolate Crémeux = $115 -- doesn't seem too bad. Every dish was flavorful and even the beer was very crisp & tasty. Thought the dessert was one of the best desserts I have had and I am a total chocolate snob (and draft beer snob too). The only dish we can fault somewhat was the kinda chewy flat iron steak. However the hash side served w/ the steak was phenomenal! Service was attentive and friendly and we weren't rushed. I would definitely return!
