    We had a great time catching up and sharing a meal with family passing through on their way back home. We had a great table, great food, great service, didn’t feel rushed to hurry up and finish our meal. Thanks to the wait staff ~ you were wonderful and very appreciated!

    This was first time at Garre and it was an absolute pleasure! I had a business meeting and we sat outside on the patio, the weather was gorgeous and the food was expertly prepared. It was also quiet enough that we could have a productive meeting while enjoying the surroundings. I will definitely be back! Terry

    We ordered a Cobb salad, mushroom risotto, and mediterranean salad with a cup of soup between three of us. All three meals were very good. I am definitely a risotto fan. The one thing that would make it perfect is if they would’ve offered a wine light tasting at the café.

    The food was great, but we waited for over 20 minutes in order to receive the dressing. I even went inside to ask the host for it, and she made me wait an additional 10 minutes.

    Spacious dog friendly patio seating, lovely winery, and the food was delicious. We had the calamari appetizer that was hot and fresh. I had the portobello mushroom sandwich which was also delicious and the fries were crispy and also hot. Service was paced perfectly and we had a lovely afternoon.

    Garre is one of my favorite places to take visitors for lunch in Livermore. The food and service are consistently great as is the wine country ambiance.
