Also, there were open boxes of wine all over the floors. All the staff members EXCEPT FOR JAMIE were great. If she's there I'd recommend leaving unfortunately. We were told by a distributor that's how Jamie is... very beautiful place minus all the clutter on the floor.

I do love their pastas I did take also my mom's friends but they stayed so short in Galena for a two and a half hour drive. Anyways this is memorial Day and I don't have family anymore and I decided to go to Galena Illinois it's very quaint and feels like Gettysburg this restaurant that I went to I really love their Italian food was very busy regards to the ambience but I like how there's different floors and it has that old civil war 1860s feel.

Children are welcome and there is a limited menu for them as well. But, when you are paying these prices, you expect a little bit more than what VV's has to offer. First, the toasted ravioli's are clearly mass-produced and just heated at the restaurant. Then, people must love the idea of salad and garlic bread (like the OG), but this is not a great offering. The bread is like that you would get at a pizza place with your order of pasta and the salad is literally swamped in onions and dressing. The pasta is house made, and fine, but that was about all that was okay. The veal marsala is just odd. The sauce is the consistency of a thick, brown gravy and it just serves to disguise the over-cooked meat. At over $100 for one adult and two kids, you'd be better-off elsewhere. Extra star for the wonderful service from Gracie.

We also walked around the vines and the old barn. Lovely place. Highly suggest if you're in the area. They also have a brick and mortar store on Main Street in the town of Galena as well .

We both ordered the Turkey and Cranberry Panini. What a wonderful mixture of flavors! Oh, and it's actually turkey and not deli meat turkey! It was served with a choice of sides and we both chose the chips and salsa since we figured we'd be talking for a bit. These weren't your ordinary chips as they had a delicious seasoning on them. The salsa had quite a bite in the spicy level, for me. My only complaint was that it took over 45 min for the sandwiches to come to us and they were busy but not overly busy. Fortunately we were there to talk and catch up so not a big deal but if you're coming for a lunch hour from work, it might not work for you. They do have some evening music on weekends but there may be a ticket charge. You'll have to check their website for more info on that. Service was friendly, just took awhile for food to come to accompany our wine.
