   Service was pretty good. Food and atmosphere was excellent. Price wasn't bad either. Will definitely return in the future.

   Food and atmosphere was great. A bit cold in the cave so dress warm. We will definitely be back.

   After waiting 15 minutes in line for the host to take one couple at a time to their table. We were then told our reservation wasn’t there. I had to show her how to scroll to find a reservation. The hostess offered no apologies and unceremoniously dumped us at a table in the way back, which look like it was a table for the staff. Nothing on the table, no lights, no napkins nothing the other tables had. it was also a round table that sat 10 people, and there were only three of us The waiter did tell us that. Yes they’d overbooked but that was not my problem. A table near us had four young people who were very loud, obviously enjoying, but did not allow us to have an enjoyable dinner It was such a disappointing New Year’s Eve dinner. They were out of things and we just felt as members we were treated less than. At this point, sorry that we rejoined Oak Mountain

   The experience of dining inside the cave with your own private table amongst the wine barrels was pretty cool. Service was great and all the staff was attentive. The cave is a bit chilly for the wine storage, so bring a sweater or light jacket. Not all of the items on the menu were available, but the variety was good. The portions were fair and the price as well. $220 including tip for app, 2 entrees, and a decent bottle of wine.

   We had a reservation for the late afternoon. The view and grounds were beautiful. The bathrooms were clean. The wine was very good. I don’t recommend the mimosa flight, however. For the price point I expected more of the food, service, and atmosphere. Our server was complaining to us the whole time about how busy it was inside making us feel very unwelcome since we were sitting outside so I don’t recommend sitting outside. The overall tone of the staff was tense and unwelcoming. The appetizers arrived before the drinks so we were sitting there a good 25 minutes without drinks and then had to let the staff who delivered our appetizers know that we hadn’t received our drinks. The empanadas and cheese pull bread were good. Unfortunately it went downhill from there with the food. They were out of meatloaf. The beef short ribs were smothered in gravy and fatty. The mashed potatoes were bland and honestly the plate looked like a cafeteria meal. The salmon plate had the same qualities. The tiramisu dessert we didn’t even eat. The plates and cutlery could use an upgrade. Also while sitting outside there was dark heavy rock music playing that was very depressing. It wasn’t upbeat rock music so it was pretty surprising they would choose this. Overall the experience was very disappointing, especially for the price point.

   Taylor was a great hostess and helped us make a good decision on where our group of 6 should be seated to have best experience given all the variables. Food was great and no one left unhappy. It’s tough for the servers to see you over all the barrels so sometimes you’ve got to flag a person down but everyone was always accommodating.
