Bella Terra Vineyards is a winery, restaurant, and event venue in the small town of Hunker in…read moreWestmoreland County. It sells a variety of dry and sweet wines (e.g., red, white, rose, sparkling, and cider), cocktails, mocktails, and beers. Some vineyards are on the grounds as are many barrels and bottles of wines. The restaurant has both indoor seating and seasonal outdoor seating in lakeside cabanas and winter igloos. It is open for brunch/lunch and dinner. It is a nice setting for daily dining as well as special events such as weddings, bridal and baby showers, and private parties. Furthermore, the website lists activities such as bingo, painting and candle-making classes, live music with dancing, and more. For my husband and me, I made a reservation for lunch in an igloo. Our igloo was large enough to fit eight people and cost $50 plus foods and drinks. A larger "party dome" fits up to 14 people and has a fee of $75. The temperatures outside were very cold, but our igloo was kept warm by an electric fireplace and a zippered door. Throughout our meal, our waitress provided timely and friendly service. The Bistro menu listed shareables (e.g., pretzel sticks and charcuterie board), several smash burgers, several flatbreads, mains (e.g., fish and chips, cajun chicken pasta, and quinoa bowl), several salads, several handhelds (e.g., turkey melt, veggie wrap, and Italian panini), many sides, and a couple of desserts. Prices were moderate. (The menus for Sunday Brunch and a group Gathering differ.) The waitress first brought our Sweet Wine-Cookie Flight (4.5 stars), which consisted of the following pairs: Diamond Reo with Brown Sugar Pop Tart, Sweet Finley with Chocolate Salted Caramel, Riesling with Cookies and Cream, and Rose Cider with Strawberry Crunch. The wine glasses came in a wooden box, which was slightly too small, so I needed several minutes of time to carefully pull each wine glass out of the box. I, however, did enjoy the sweet flavors of the wines and cookies. Next our waitress brought out our shareable and two mains. The Hummus Plate (4.5 stars) consisted of fresh and tasty hummus, feta, olives, top seedz crackers, tomatoes, cucumbers, green and red peppers, carrots, celery, and tzatziki. My main course was Crab Cakes (4 stars) with a substituted side of salad. Two crab cakes were a decent size of 4 ounces each, but I would have preferred more crab meat. I liked the garlic aioli. My husband's main course was the Cali Burger (4 stars) with a side of fries. In a brioche bun, a beef patty was topped with fontina cheese, applewood-smoked bacon (which he would prefer be crispier), avocado, avocado ranch, lettuce, and pickles (which he commented were nicely crunchy and sweet-sour) (no tomato at his request). The total price for the flight, shareable, two mains, and a soda was $98 plus sales tax and tip (plus the earlier $50 fee for the igloo).

Maybe not that big a deal, but a lot of the Pour Tour locations don't have their own parking so this' is a big plus. I love the atmosphere inside. Rustic, but with some modern flair. A bit dark, but also light enough to see what you need to see. There are a variety of seating options including standard tables, high tops and seating at the bar. I chose to sit at the bar since I was there on my own. My server was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. She shared information about the winery and some of the most popular wine and food items. After sampling several, I settled on a glass of the playhouse red blend and one of their specials - a grilled cheese and tomato bisque. The soup was creamy and delicious and the grilled cheese comfort food perfection. Food came out fairly quickly and my server was attentive to my needs without being pushy. I really enjoyed my experience here and will definitely be back, hopefully for one of their events or maybe a visit in their fun looking igloos.

I stopped by here a couple of Saturdays ago with my wife for lunch. It was one of our rare…read morechild-free days, so we decided to spend it going out for lunch when we remembered that we had gift certificates to Narcisi. While we had both been here before, it had been a really long time for each of us. When we arrived around 11:45 AM, the place already seemed pretty crowded. Thankfully, we were able to get a table for two. The inside of Narcisi is beautiful, and they have both indoor and outdoor seating. Based on the day we were there, their clientele was also what you might expect, with groups of older women, and I believe there was some type of shower going on in one of the party rooms. For lunch on this day, I ultimately decided on the Calabrese Pizza, while my wife went with the Eggplant Parmesan. We decided to go this route so that we could each share part of our entree with the other. The menu described mine as pepperoni, hot Italian sausage, sweet peppadew peppers, mozzarella, tomato sauce, ricotta cheese, and honey, while my wife's was described as fried eggplant, mozzarella cheese, tomato sauce, and spaghetti. My pizza here ended up being solid, as the meats on top had a ton of flavor, and I also enjoyed the sweetness from the peppadew peppers. While I could see the ricotta and taste it as well, it didn't really do too much for me, to be honest. My wife was also kind enough to share a piece of fried eggplant with me, which I thought was nice. It was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, with a nice flavor in addition to the texture. The bottom line for me is that I would stop by here again in the future. Our food was good, and I can see why many love the ambiance at Narcisi.

An elite event venue too!!…read more Me work hosted a retirement celebration at Narcisi Winery.. and the simple elegance is even more apparent in the private event space and preparations! From coordinating the entree choices to ensuring everything would be perfect, the event staff is clearly an expert in throwing a good event! The space is stunning! The touches in the space make it feel so intentional. They have a separate entry and parking lot available around the back of the building. The room is secluded from the restaurant to where you wouldn't even realize that you were there! You do share the bathroom, but it feels like it is for your event space! For the meal, I had the: Chicken Picatta - they served me three chicken breasts, perfectly seasoned and coated with a mashed potato that I will try to recreate and a seasonal blend of vegetables Tiramisu - this bad boy oozed coffee and was well balanced in sweetness The wait staff perfectly cleared the courses and served without interfering in the speeches or festivities. They simply asked that we provide placards to indicate the meal for each person and they handled everything else to perfection!

Sweet Diamond and dry Riesling from Washington. The wine waitress should have said do the diamond last since it's sweet. We started to try the reds. The Merlot tasted like a traditional Merlot. Noiret was good. Old Vine Zinfandel was super dry and wasn't a fan of it. The Marquette is a wine that I do not sample often . It was fabulous. Aged in bourbon barrels for two years. She asked if I like bourbon and said yes. She said you will like this. She was right . Dry but a good taste towards the end. My two things that I dislike. The white wine isn't chilled. They provide you ice if you prefer. Ice waters up the wine and takes the taste away. The Marquette I purchased a bottle if and it's great. But it's $38 a bottle and around here that doesn't fly. Overall great place. I look forward to visiting in the upcoming months.

And this…read morelocation is fun because it is in the Westmoreland Mall and you can make purchases along with all of your other shopping. Or take a break from the chaos and enjoy a glass of wine. I stopped in primarily to get my Pour Tour sticker, so I knew I wouldn't be buying a bottle. One of my favorite things at Greenhouse is the Wine Slushie, but unfortunately, the day I was there the machine was down. Not to worry, they have tons of tasty options. I ordered the combo wine (I forget what they call it) where they pair some of their pepper wine with their sweet wine. It is absolutely delicious because the sweetness of the paired wine cuts down some of the hit of the hot one. It was a bit expensive at $10 a glass, but I guess since it was two wines it was more expensive than the other glasses. The store itself is nicely set up. There are more comfortable couches and chairs and then in the back of the store more traditional tables and chairs. They have a variety of wine themed gifts to purchase. A little of everything from toppers, bags, glasses, towels and even some shirts. The staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable and genuinely seemed happy to be there. I really enjoyed my visit to this location and will stop in next time I'm at the Westmoreland Mall.

What I enjoy about Greenhouse is how personal each wine is bc they incorporate quirkiness and creativity not only in the flavors of their wines but also with the names and the labels. It comes out very cute. Ex: the sauced wine is a picture of a cat who seems "sauced." Who would refuse to buy such cuteness!?! They offer your typical PA wine from concordia, fredonia and niagara grapes, and they also have unique wines that are seasonal and specialty wines again with very cute names and labels. Great as gifts! My faves so far are the sauced (cranberry wine), tramp n the weeds, and the chocolate cherry. Their fruit wines are on point with the real fruit flavor that it's like drinking fruit juice. Could be dangerous. I highly recommend supporting this local winery. They also sell shirts and wine accessories.
