I've never had a bad meal, and the service is always spot-on, with a thoughtful system that lets you signal when you need something without ever feeling rushed or overlooked. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with great music, fun events, and a family-friendly vibe that makes it easy to relax and stay awhile. Whether you're inside or enjoying the outdoor seating, it's just an all-around great experience every time. Easily a five-star spot in my book.

I attended a wedding at the Red Maple Vineyard this past weekend. It was a beautiful venue and the…read morestaff were superb and attentive. Our day started with a Chinese tea ceremony in the barn and then a catered lunch. About 6:30pm, the ceremony with a live music started followed by passed hors d'oeuvre, fresh oysters, and wood fired pizza. The wood fired pizza was very delicious and I enjoyed the blackened shrimp and the arancini. I tried the cider and the rosé, but they were too dry for my taste. Then at 7:45pm, we went into the reception pavilion. The menu consisted of a salad as first course, a duet plate of salmon and beef short rib for entree, and dessert. The summer citrus salmon with the multi grain pilaf was very good. After first dance, father and daughter dance, mother and son dance, and speeches, the DJ told us to step outside. After a few minutes, the sky exploded with light. It was a beautiful fireworks display from the hillside. The bathrooms were stocked with essentials in the toiletry baskets. Red Maple Vineyard offers a rustic barn and reception pavilion, massive green grounds, and a beautiful garden.

The atmosphere is relaxed and rustic. During warmer months, you can enjoy the outdoor space, which includes games, comfortable seating, fire pits, and an outdoor pizza oven.

They have a unique and efficient service style, where the entire waste staff assist your table. You simply flip a can on your table to green when you need service. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and they offer a great selection of local draft beers and wines. I highly recommend the wings. They are perfectly sauced and delicious. Primarily beer and wine as options as well as a few spirited cocktails. Great local spot to meet up with friends and family!

We were very appreciative of the signage leading up to the property, as well as the ample parking. The bar greets you to the left of the entry and the hallway to the restrooms on the right. RMV Cellars serves up some delicious, beers, wines and ciders. Their Juicy Joy IPA was stellar and I should have picked up a 4 pack to go. Next time! Bartenders were friendly and attentive. The indoor space is massive and complimented with cute seating areas, some cozy couch spaces, high tops and picnic style tables for socializing and getting your grub on. For this event the picnic tables were set up as sponsor tables, creating a nice flow for networking. Outside there are some covered seating, a brick oven where their bar bites were prepared and of course beautiful views. Overall, we really enjoyed ourselves and look forward to returning for a cozy fall date night. Cheers, The Happy Hour Huntress

9/14/25: Love coming to Fjord Vineyards!…read more We came for their Oyster Party Weekend. Marilyn greeted us when we checked in. She escorted us over to a table with a marvelous view of the vineyards. Maria was our wonderful and charming server. She came over with a complementary glass of their wonderful rosé wine. I'm not a rosé drinker, but it was delicious. We enjoyed a wonderful flight of wines. Our favorite was their '23 Double Fall Line $32. It has a marvelous smooth blend of Cab Franc, Merlot and Blaufränkisch (Austrian Blue) Grapes. Two bottles came home later. : ) Of course, we had to indulge in some wonderful lobster rolls. Each lobster roll was $23, plus for an extra $9 you get a nice dollop of caviar to top it off ! The lobster was from a company called Oyster Party in the NY area. I think the lobster rolls were some of the best I ever had. Just a couple of notes: - It appears the hill leading up to the vineyard was recently paved. Previously, it was extremely uneven. - Be sure to make reservations online. - Parking is available within steps of entering the vineyard. Can't wait to return! : D

I have been to just sangria fest the cool thing about here is the view that you see. Make sure you get there early so that you can catch the view and sit there and enjoy it. The only thing I've had from there is the pizza and it's really good as it's wood oven pizza when you try a certain sangria flavor, they actually offer it to you either in a wine glass or you can buy a pitcher It's a great day for a girls day out or just a day to just travel along the countryside and go check it out. Service is wonderful because again they explained everything to you specific wines if you're looking into that or if it's sangria, same situation everyone's very nice.
