We were disappointed because we did not know that they only served brunch on Sunday and that they close at 7pm.

We had a wonderful brunch on a rainy Sunday. The food was excellent but the menu doesn’t have a huge variety. We shared the ricotta with honey, and the biscuits with lavender honey to start for the four of us. It ended up being too much bread and filling us up more than we needed. I would recommend only one starter. 2 of us had pizzas, one had the loaded croissant and I had the burger. All very good but we were super stuffed. Since it was my daughter’s birthday they brought her dessert and the four of us struggled to finish it! The staff were very friendly and attentive. The place is beautiful and we enjoyed the saxophone music being played. Overall it was a great experience but bring your appetite!

Food was really good. Would recommend more bread with charcuterie board. 4 small pieces are not adequate for the size of board and cost. Service was very attentive and pleasant.

We've dined at Farmers Commons several times and never been disappointed. The food quality is what you might expect at high ranking inner-city restaurant but in a beautiful country setting. Service is outstanding and you can always hang around after dinner in the equally impressive vineyard courtyard. Normally, there's some kind of live music. The whole property makes you feel like you're in Italy. It's really enchanting

I come here often and it really feels like each time it gets worse. This time you were out of cornbread and iced tea. The waiter never refills the water only when I ask. Which would be no big deal if you left a pitcher on the table or had larger glasses. It also felt like the waiter was rushing us to finish and leave.

Hidden gem! The food was delicious. We enjoyed the fried green tomatoes, a charcuterie board and honey whipped ricotta. I normally don’t eat ricotta but the honey, seasoning and texture was a perfect blend. We went during Sunday brunch and were surprised with a live jazz saxophonist. The restaurant had great ambiance with ann upscale, yet still relaxed vibe. The property beautiful.

The service was very good! She was knowledgeable about wine selections. The grounds are pretty and inside the restaurant was nice. I was so surprised that the food was so mediocre. I recommend getting a charcuterie tray because it’s a nice place to have a glass of wine but don’t waste your money on the entrees. I made reservations too but we were seated in this excluded section, away from the music, which felt like the commoner’s section! 😁 It was very odd!
