Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
The Grill at Wente Vineyards offers a delightful dining experience with "excellent food" and "extremely good service." Set against a stunning backdrop of vineyards and a golf course, it features a varied menu and a commendable wine list. While outdoor seating offers gorgeous views, patrons should be aware of occasional wasp activity.

    Great service and excellent place to have a business lunch! We will definitely come back. The view of the golf course was beautiful. We did wine tasting at the tasting room so we didn’t order wine.

    We had lunch at The Grill after a wine tasting at Wente. The food was very good. We sat outside but were warned of yellow jackets visiting the outside seat. We did not see any until we were about to leave. Good service, and a nice view of the golf course, oak hillsides . Menu was varied with lots of choices.

    There are always bees that are problematic. It really detracts from the overall experience. My club sandwich was skimpy and my wife’s hamburger and side salad was not great. The salad was a bunch or lettuce thrown on the plate.

    The ambience was beautiful, server was excellent and the food was good. The starter platter appetizer was delicious. I had an eggplant pasta my husband ordered fish and chips, and my friend had a hamburger. Overall the food was good.

    Terrible service. I didn’t realize Wente closed their restaurant. This is casual dining for golfers, not patrons from their tasting experience. I called in advance to let them know we were running late, but the hostess balked at our 10 minute arrival past the reservation time, saying the rest closes at 6:30. Wow. Then a couple of us ordered 2 Cadillac margaritas with one without triple sec. The bartender brought them over and was so confused about which one was modified that he silently took both drinks and returned them in a much lighter color as they both didn’t have a hint of Grand Marnier. My modified drink was still so sweet that I couldn’t manage more than a sip. Disappointing.

    Friendly atmosphere. Good service. If weather permits, great outdoor seating watching the golfers finish hole 18.

    We really enjoyed the service - Deliah was exceptional servicer and the food was delicious. Her recommendations were great and appreciated. We will definitely come back again. We requested outside because of the nice weather, and it was loud inside so much quieter on the patio. We will definitely go back again

    Love the new menu. Lots of new drink and sandwich options. Prices, like everywhere, have gone up up up. Service was good. Sitting outdoors was beautiful, minus the wasps. They kept wanting to join our meal.

    Major problem of dozens of hornets We saw them stinging people and they were everywhere. We asked the server to put some food on a plate by the bushes as a sacrificial plate which seemed to help
