This place is everything you dislike about a fast food restaurant, except there's nothing fast…read moreabout it. The service is really slow and the staff is not friendly at all. It's modestly decorated, which is fine. I got the impression that there is a group of repeat customers who sustain the business. We will not be adding to that number. We were hoping for home cooking in the style of Weasie's around the corner, or at least hearty portions of basic American fare, but this place was nothing special. Next time we will just go to Weasie's.

The space itself gives you a family bar feeling. Looks like it would be a great locals spot. They had enough tables for any size groups and it was very clean. For appetizers we had the fried pickles and pork rinds. I'd give the fried pickles a 2/5, they had flavor but lacked crunch. The breading was missing on 80% of the pickle. The pork rinds, FRIEND, those were probably the highlight of my meal. The sizzle and pop, the crunch, flavor...I'm drooling just thinking about them again. I don't think I can ever have them from a bag again. 5/5 Main Coarse we ordered the mac-n-skilled with pulled pork, the kids chicken taco with tots, brisket stuff shells, and brisket Philly cheesesteak with a side of hush puppies. Mac-n-skillet, the meat was a tad bit dry but had a good amount of cheese. Creamy. Only downside was the pork. 3.5/5. The Brisket Philly was cheesy, meat was good, great flavor just a bit too greasy. Hush puppies were good, nothing stood out in particular. 4/5. The kids chicken taco and tots were ok. Not enough cheese and the tortilla was hard, tots were just right. 3.5/5. The brisket stuffed shells were unique, loved the flavor just a bit too much cheese to meat ratio for me personally. The brisket was cooked perfectly. Would order again. 5/5 We were in and out in less than an hour. We were never rushed and the atmosphere was warm. The prices are reasonable as well.

We went to Veritas for lunch and wine tastings. Both were good…read more We sat outside on their veranda and enjoyed the view with our food and wine. It was lovely. For lunch, we had the Apple Brie and Turkey sandwich. That was such a good combination. We also had the Arugula and apples salad. It also was good. The main tasting costs $20. They also offer an option to customize your wine tasting for $30. Both provide four wines. We customized and had the Sauvignon Blanc, the Viognier, the Rose, and the Petit Verdot. All were good, and it was fun tasting such an eclectic mix of wines. The staff are kind and professional. Our server gave us a little history on the vineyard, which we really appreciated. There's no pressure to buy bottles of the wine.

The food options here are nice, nothing too far from meats and cheeses, but I'm okay keeping it elevated with the main thing the main thing. Their wines are mostly dry, but good especially with foods. On this particular visit my friend and I had already had lunch, so opted to share a bottle and a cheese plate.

John even made an apple pie to have with our 2nd morning breakfast. It was fun to visit the alpacas and donkeys, and give them treats. Would definitely stay there again if we find ourselves heading back to central VA. There is a lot to do in the area - plenty of wineries and breweries if that is your thing. A beautiful part of the country.

This wine is a standout. It opens with these incredibly lovely violet notes on the nose that transition into a spicy, well-structured palate. The finish is fantastic--long, smooth, and refined. It's exactly what you want from a premium Virginia Cab Franc: elegant but with enough depth to keep things interesting. The barn-style tasting room is lovely, providing a great rustic atmosphere, and they have excellent outdoor seating to enjoy when the weather is nice. The setting at the Gateway to Nelson 151 is as great as ever, but the quality coming out of the cellar right now is what makes this a mandatory stop. If you can get your hands on a bottle of the Reserve, do it before the post-Cup crowd clears them out.

When traveling solo it can be tough to visit wineries even if they're dog friendly outside because you're expected to go inside to order, and I refuse to tie my dog up. Not this place - he was gladly welcomed in the tasting room! The other patrons were super friendly and after seeing me take a picture of my dog they were quick to jump in and make sure to do a whole photoshoot of me with him. All the staff were in love with my dog and even grabbed some treats for him. Basically, if you have a dog...this is the place to go! I got the white wine tasting flight and didn't love a couple of the wines but I'm admittedly not a wine snob and I mainly drink sauvignon blanc and pinot grigio. Have never been a fan of chardonnay so I don't think it's that theirs is bad - more of personal preference and I'm sure others love it! I ended up getting another glass of the Vidal Blanc because that one was excellent! We visited 10/26/25 and loved seeing the fall colors in the background. It was pretty empty on a Sunday so we easily got a front row table where we could look out at the vineyards/trees/mountains. Will absolutely be back here if we're ever in the area again!
