Our experience at The Bistro at Gervasi Vineyard was outstanding. The food was delicious and beautifully presented, and the service by Dan was excellent. The Gervasi Vineyard property is lovely, and the restaurant atmosphere was just right - rustic, yet elegant. The prices are not inexpensive, but it was worth the experience. We will go back.

Overall it was good experience. Our servers were great, however the food was okay. I got a cease slas dna d the croutons were stale, it was impossible to chew them. My partner also wasn’t impressed with the food, he got the chicken and mashed potatoes, which were also very mediocre. The drinks were great. Maybe it was just not the best day for the cook, we will go back again.
