This was one of the top 3 meals of my life. Every course was amazing in it’s own special way. The staff were polite and courteous and very attentive. I cannot recommend The Farmhouse at Veritas highly enough.

We had a delicious 4 course dinner in a gazebo next to the grape vines. The dinner was paired with fantastic wines from the vineyard. We ended the evening with a bright pink moon as we walked along the vines.

Fantastic and inventive food pairings and the setting is so lovely. We were also staying on the property and visiting wineries in the area, so we also had their daily brunch — always a “sweet” and a “savory” option, and also fabulous. Love this place. A perfect romantic getaway.

This was our third time over the last couple of years coming to the restaurant. He didn't seem to have the edge we felt from a few years ago. Green got a salad way too tart and quite unpleasant and clash with the rosé it was served with. Soup was delicious, but overly sweet. Duck was very nice. Steak was overcooked for me but very nicely done for my guest. The menu said Claret, but we were served a Merlot . We ended up having both and actually the Merlot was the better choice. So again, a few misses I took this from a five star to a four star for us

One of the best “food and paired wine” meals I’ve eaten. A little costly but everyone should go at least once.

We always enjoy the wine dinner at The Farmhouse whenever we are in the Afton area (at least once per year). The food and wine never disappoint, the service is always exceptional, and the setting overlooking the vineyards and mountains is beautiful. Highly recommended.

We attended the farm dinner to celebrate our wedding anniversary and were wowed by the little personalized touches, fabulous wine pairing, and tasty dishes. It was quite magical watching the sunset in the vineyard, too.
