Sip & Swirl Events

(30 reviews)

East Oakland

I debated about writing this because this is a black-owned business. But honestly, just because you…read moreare black-owned doesn't mean you shouldn't strive to provide an excellent experience. I purchased a table for my family and friends to attend the Sip & Swirl Events in Livermore. We were excited to attend. We were told we would be in a VIP section and receive wristbands. This experience was supposed to include a table covering, ice bucket, charcuterie board, and a small centerpiece. We were also supposed to get pours from Staff Walking Through The Event. We were also told that VIP guests Did NOT need to check in with general admission. They stated that my guests and I would go straight to the VIP area, which would be near the event center. Our table would have my name on it, as well as eight pink wristbands. Since there were so many issues, I will list the points. The event started at 4 pm, and at 1:37 pm, I received an email stating that the event truck was broken into and all items for the event were stolen. She requested that we bring chairs, blankets, food, and wine glasses. When we arrived at the event, no one was there to greet or direct us. There was no check-in table, and I had to ask other event attendees who was running the event. After 10 minutes of searching for the host, I showed her my ticket and asked where my table was. She looked confused, walked away, and never returned. I then began to walk around the event to see if I could locate the table. I finally found my table with my name on a pink Party City wine bag, but they were still setting up my table. Which appeared to be an afterthought as we were separate from all the other tables. I then had to chase the host down again to get the wristbands for my guest. I asked about the charcuterie because, in the email, she said she had the items, just no boards. She responded she had the things but no boards, as they were stolen. However, she was trying to figure out a plan. Mind you, we never got any salami! There was no wine to sip or swirl as no one was working the event. They had two bars located clear across from our table. The lines were super long, and we were expected to stand in line for one pour. I made the best of the situation, so I went inside Wente and purchased wine for the table and two charcuterie boards. Only to be approached by someone who identified themselves as a helper of the host, stating that I could not bring outside wine into the event. Well, one, it's not outside wine; I purchased it at Wente Vineyards, and two, what do you expect us to do, sit at the table and wait for the non-existent workers to pour the non-existent wine? The DJ could not turn up the music until 6 p.m. due to other patrons at the winery who were not a part of our event, our table was clear across the other side. We were unable to hear the music. One of the event attendees had a medical emergency, and there was no event staff to be found. EMS was called, and the Wente staff had to come and assist her, and they were very helpful. Also, I'm still unclear; the host says her truck was broken into while she had lunch. So the event started at 4 pm. At noon, shouldn't you be at the event setting up and not getting lunch? I don't know. Maybe I'm a skeptic, but it sounds wild to me. Lastly, even if all your items were stolen, that doesn't account for you not having anyone working the event. Were the event staff stolen out of the truck as well? She also could have publicly addressed the attendees and said something to us to help us understand the flow of the event. It just appeared like we gathered together and all wore pink, but no one was there to organize. I'll say this: Our community always knows how to pivot and have a good time despite everything. I saw folks having pizzas delivered and buying wine. I know the Wente staff appreciated our purchases. The whole team at Wente was terrific, and they were very helpful! This is in no way a reflection of their service and their beautiful property. I plan to go to Wente again as the wine was excellent, and their staff were amazing!

I sent the following email to the host, April:…read more "Hi there - due to the unfortunate turn of events at Wente on Sunday, I'd like a refund. I bought 3 tickets & 3 "wine pass" wristbands. Because we were told not to bring certain items, we didn't. So we had to resort to using a plastic table covering as our "blanket" and borrow wine glasses from Wente. In addition, the wine "ran out" before we could use our "wine pass", so that resulted in us spending an extra $100 on Wente wine. No one even checked us in or provided an update to what was going on, so we really could have gone for free, but certainly not for damn near $100 per person. I'm sorry to hear about your van being broken into and the items stolen. Hopefully you can understand where I (& several other attendees who I've seen be vocal on social media about Sunday) are coming from w/ asking for a refund, especially since not much was or has been done to make up for it."

I was a lifelong customer, shopping at Fast & Easy Mart three to four times a week. Today I tried…read morea new item. When I was rung up, the price did not match the tag that was in front of the item. The shop owner went to check and remove the misplaced tag. I was willing to pay the few cents price difference, no problem! However, the shop owner took quite a condescending attitude towards me and blamed me for the misplaced price tag. Needless to say, unfortunately, I will never return to Fast and Easy Mart due to this unnecessary and rude treatment, especially by the shop owner.

I was incredibly tired yesterday and I wanted something to drink. It was 2:00 p.m. and my…read moreappointment wasn't until 3:00 p.m. I really wanted a nice cold Coke Zero and to go sit in my car with the seat laid back and shut my eyes for a moment before my appointment. I roll in here and there is no ice in the ice machine. The owner told me he would help me out in a moment. OK, so I walk over to the cooler to look for a bottle of Coke Zero. I couldn't find it. My head was spinning. All I wanted was a Coke Zero. There was nothing in there. I get a drink cup with ice then fill it with bottled Coke Zero. Because no one ever has cans or has it in the fountain. I started to leave and I said, "Sorry you don't have Coke Zero." He said yes we do its in the back cooler. I looked up and there it was. I walked back there and saw the bottles of Coke Zero. Then a little bit lower I saw the most amazing beautiful site I have ever seen. CANS! The heavens opened up and angels were singing a heavenly tune as I laid eyes upon that wonderful, cold, black can of Coke Zero. I grabbed it and walked up to the counter with a huge smile. I said, "You have single cans of Coke to sell. This is the best thing ever." He just shrugged and looked at me like I was a total ass. Fine what ever. I told him I was sorry for being rude and that I was really tired and just needed something to drink. Once apologizing he changed and we started talking about my work. I even hooked him up with a discount when ever he needed what I sell. Because I got it like that. Every time I'm in San Ramon, I know where my Coke is coming from.

The event held in the Chef's beautiful house & everything was well organized, well prepared & extremely flavorful! People at the group were very sweet & enjoyable to cook with. I highly recommend any event with Chef Mashav. She is really professional & knowledgeable!

What a fantastic tour by Mashav (the owner and the chef of Le Couloir)! Richmond neighborhood in SF…read moreis known for its mix of cultures, but Mashav masterfully uncovers all the hidden secrets and gems - Secrets only someone who lives in this community is familiar with. And she does that through food and hand-picked dishes that you will never uncover without a guide. Even though locations may change per tour, our group tasted a mix of cultures and got some stories behind the dishes, the restaurants, and their owners. Few examples - * Russian cuisine - Herring with a pickled onion on fresh bread * Indian street food - I was surprised how much I enjoyed this vegan street snack - I would have never ordered anything without meat, and I dislike spinach, but the fried spinach snack was mind-blowingly good. * Mexican - Quesadilla with plantain. Again, no meat but it was soooooo good. * Chinese - Glazed Pork and pork-filled bun I won't spoil the surprise for some of the other locations. And more, and more - Total of about 7-8 places. You won't stay hungry, guaranteed. The walk itself is not challenging; there are no hills to overcome, even though it's San Francisco. Don't wait - Just go!
