The scenery, service, staff, and amenities were all exceptional. The food was delicious and reasonable priced; which was impressive when you consider the additional cost of wine.. Overall, I would recommend The Bistro to all of my friends, family, and business associates.5/5/2013 12:00:00 AMOne of our favorite placesOne of our favorite places to visit for a nice lunch. We can share a bottle of wine and a nice gourmet lunch for less that $40.00.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMMenu...Everything about the Bistro is amazing except the menu! There really is not an appetizer fit to share. Not sure why there isn't a cheese plate available. Use to love the crab cakes now those are gone.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMenjoyableWe always enjoy lunch here. It is a change of pace and relaxing.
Over looking the vineyard is peaceful and good for quiet conversation.
This gift shop and wines are an added bonus.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMPretty goodThe food was amazing and the seating and view were wonderful.

The chef is well known and exquisitely prepares the food. We celebrated our wedding anniversary. If you make a reservation be sure to let them know if you are celebrating an event. Prices are moderate. A party of four with desert and wine cost about $75. And, of course, you should have wine since this is a winery.4/22/2013 12:00:00 AMWe visit Childress severalWe visit Childress several times a year and drive 2 plus hours to get there just to enjoy lunch and atmosphere. Our servers are always tops! Can't wait to visit again soon.4/21/2013 12:00:00 AMWe were very pleased withWe were very pleased with the service we received at The Bistro. We got turned around in our directions to the Vineyards, so called to change our reservations. The lady we talked to was very helpful, telling us that if were no more than fifteen minutes late from our reservation we would be seated. She offered help in directions, but our "navigator" found the correct directions at that time. We arrived right a our fifteen minute mark and the hostess seated us right away. We were very pleased with the quality of the foods and the friendliness of the servers.
We would certainly visit again if the opportunity arises.
Have a good day!4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMWe were very impressed withWe were very impressed with the welcoming attitudes of everyone we encountered at Childress. We were also pleased that bottles of wine served in the Bistro were priced at their retail prices and not marked up.

This included starters, main courses, two desserts and two bottles of wine.3/30/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat restaurant with a greatGreat restaurant with a great view, the wait staff was knowledgeable and pleasant and the food was well presented. The tasting room was crowded with too few personnel to accommodate the number of people. Because of that, our party felt short changed as to being able to ask more questions and when one of group inquired as the availability of tasting a Malbec that was listed, she was told the Malbec wasn't open. Whatever that meant? Was it unavailable or was she reluctant to open a bottle.
The grounds were immaculate and we wished it was more springlike in order to see the vineyard in bloom. All in all, a very good experience, we woild definitely return.3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMgreat atmosphere to celebrategreat atmosphere to celebrate a co-workers birthday!3/27/2013 12:00:00 AMI love this restaurant.

We will be back!3/9/2013 12:00:00 AMThank You For Giving Us RC WineryI meet friends there for lunch on a regular basis. I suppose we meet every 2 to 3 weeks for lunch. I also have brought a table for 8 group there 2 times. Obviously I (we) love what Richard has given us in a restaurant, gift shop, and winery...a wonderful place to just "soak in" somplace beautiful in this sea of barbeque restaurants. I have spent time in Nappa Valley and I think RC Winery is more beautiful then most in the Valley. The only change I would like to see would be slight changes to the menue (other than the Trifecta), but that's because I dine there so often. Overall I wouldn't change what you are doing. Richard has put a lot into the winery and WE APPRECIATE IT! Your wait staff is excellent. It's always a nice experience.3/8/2013 12:00:00 AMLovely lunchHad a wonderful lunch at Childress. Relaxed, lovely setting. Food was delicious! Our server, Megan, was great. Very patient as we lingered over our wine and the venue. All four of us enjoyed our food selections. The Mushroom Soup was the best I've ever had! The truffle oil made it so special! Another person had the salmon with cherry glaze. Yum!12/15/2012 12:00:00 AM
