I'm a little reluctant to post this, but it's honest feedback and IMO needs to be called out…read more First off: I go to a few of Starks Restaurants on a fairly regular basis. Pretty much always enjoy Starks Steaks/Seafood (for HH & full-service dining); often bring visitors to Bird&Bottle and Bravas; also a fan of Augie's French and Grossmans. I've been to Willi's WB in SR a few times over the years, but doubt I'll return. Food rating: overall 3 out of 5: I had the calamari. Way too much sweet sticky sauce. Friends in group selected from the Happy Hour menu. Everything was fine, but the offerings were quite limited and un-interesting. But it was the standout "guest-experience" that killed it for us. Service was rude. Hard stop. Our waiter was hard to flag down, and when we got his attention, his demeanor was abrupt and not at all friendly nor warm. I even got a few eye rolls directed at me. Very poor form, Emilio S! We still tipped @ 20%, b/c that's what we do. But it sure wasn't deserved

Chris took us through our tasting for the day and was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and had a ton of great food recommendations for the area. The estate tasting consisted of 6 wines for $35. We were given a delicious pour of their non vintage brut rose as a welcome pour. I enjoyed all of the wine that we tasted through. Somehow during our visit I missed their lavender gardens but that just means I have to plan another visit.

That's right. A delicious gourmet sandwich for only $10. Now that's not to say you won't spend more as you browse the store while waiting. Brenda is absolutely incredible. All the ladies making sandwiches do a stand up job honestly. Don't let this Wines & Spirit shop trick you into thinking it's just one thing. They also have an amazing little tap room to try different wines and beers plus there's a menu in there too. I can't wait to try a flatbread one of these times! It's so hard not to get a tasty sandwich though. #5 is my favorite! Highly recommend!

The cozy vibe at D'Argenzio Winery created the perfect setting, and the entire night was beyond what we imagined. They also had tables, chairs, etc -- everything we needed which made it super stress free. We also really loved their wines, and got compliments from our guests! It was helpful to have beer options too for non-wine lovers. For our rehearsal dinner, Cibo Rustico Pizzeria was awesome - absolutely get the meatballs! The food was awesome, and set a great tone for the night. Thank you, Breanna, and everyone at D'Argenzio, for making our evening unforgettable. We can't recommend this venue enough!

Love the hanging lights, makes it feel more cozy and warm. The bartender is friendly and kind, cute bar and ample seating as well. Their small wine glasses are adorable!

While I don't drink beer, they have SO much to offer on tap there's all kinds of goodness for everyone. They have a huge selection of beers and options, which is nice for folks who enjoy special brews and limited runs. Both on tap and in the coolers to take home. Last year on a trip to Santa Cruz I had the pleasure of finding a hard seltzer that was AMAZING, Untitled Art. They make beer, sours, and seltzers and each one I've tried have been delicious. The most recent was no exception! It's exciting to find delicious gluten free options so I'm always excited for new options. I love that you can bring food in since they don't serve anything in house besides light snacks. Games are on hand, but you can bring in games too. It's a super chill vibe. Always a good time.

Although the flavor profile on the salmon with citrus and saffron was not to my taste it was expertly prepared. All that said we received some of the most neglectful service I have ever had from a very nice server, who for no obvious reason left us alone for most of the meal. It got busier as our time stretched on, but it wasn't slammed and there was plenty of staff. We ordered plenty of food including two bottles of wine. We had to completely finish all of our appetizers before being asked about mains and we sat with empty glasses for ~20 minutes (possibly more) before we flagged someone down to get the second bottle; a bottle we left half drunk because it stretched our evening so long. I might give this place another try but honestly it was one of the most drawn out anticlimactic $400+ birthday celebrations (without desert) I have ever had. We could have done better at home for less.

We have been wine club members for awhile, and have visited H&L countless times over the years, so we knew that hosting our rehearsal event here was the perfect choice! Devin, who helped us book, plan and host the event, went above and beyond for us in every way. He could not have made this event more stress-free for us, and he's also just an amazing guy who provided an awesome energy during our event (our guests loved talking to him and learning about the winery). Our ~70ish guests fit perfectly on the lawn and the team made the space feel intimate and beautifully arranged for our group. They let us not only arrive early to set up, but they graciously let us stay a little later when we lost track of time from having too much fun. We love Hook and Ladder even more now than we already did, and highly recommend hosting your next event in your beautiful space!!!
