    Join CityGate Grille & Matt Meyer on our beautiful patio for an extraordinary Wine Dinner Event—where every pour reflects a legacy. For one unforgettable evening, acclaimed vintner Matt Meyer invites you to experience the ultra-rare “Bonny’s Vineyard” Cabernet Sauvignon—his personal masterwork, sourced from vines once cherished by his father, Justin Meyer (renowned vintner for Silver Oak Wines). Typically reserved for a decade-long waitlist, this coveted wine will be poured without delay—for those fortunate enough to attend. Throughout the evening, a distinguished selection of Meyer Family Cellars wines will be seamlessly paired with a multi-course culinary journey, thoughtfully curated by CityGate Grille’s Executive Chef. Each dish and each pour come together to tell a rich story of heritage, flavor, and craftsmanship. Seats are exceptionally limited - reserve yours for this one-night-only experience. Purchase Your Favorite Wines for Home All wines featured during the dinner—including the ultra-rare “Bonny’s Vineyard” Cabernet—will be available for purchase. Don’t miss the chance to bring home these exceptional bottles and extend the experience beyond the evening.

    Everything was great, but the Poke bowl needs work. It’s just tuna and rice. It normally has additional ingredients, such as cucumbers, wasabi beans, green onion, etc. it’s totally overpriced for what it is.

    My wife and I have three small children, so date nights are a rare occasion for us. We chose CityGate Grille to celebrate her birthday, and it was delightful. The surf and turf and lamb shank were excellent, and the jazz trio playing in the background was a nice treat.

    We have attended Brunch here several times. You make a reservation- you get there- and every time they say- have a seat and wait until your name is called. The food is Great. Our waitress was missing- we asked other servers to find her for our bill-15 minute wait. Every year I leave without the Rose they offer for Mother’s Day-because they “Run Out” of Flowers. This may be our last Brunch there.
    CityGate GrilleResponded on May 22, 2025
    Hello Nancy I do apologize for you not receiving a rose on Mother's Day. We do appreciate you informing us about the service issue. We do stride to make our food and service the best it can be and will work harder to make sure this is what is happening. Thank you for your input.

    The staff was amazing very professional and friendly. Ambiance was perfect. It was the food. It was either cold or dried out. They did not keep up with the buffet tables every time I went up there was little left and it was dried up had to wait for refills. Some of the food was cold. In fact stomach was upset afterwards. Buffet was just not there thing. I was disappointed in the food especially for the cost. But again as stated the staff was very friendly and professional enjoyed it because of them. Manager was friendly as well. Food definitely not worth the money or time
    CityGate GrilleResponded on May 22, 2025
    Hello Evelyn Thank you for your feedback on our Mother's Day Brunch. I will meet with the Chef and discuss the challenges you have revealed to us. We do hope you will give us another chance in the future. Thank you
