There were a lot of tables out in the sun or under the tent (for a hot day under the tent was best!) We also bought snacks of crackers and cheese that they had, although they were a bit pricey altogether. There was also a selection of chocolate and cigars at the front. Depending where your facing, there are nice views of the vineyard. There was also a graduation party that reserved half the tent space. This vineyard had humble views and hands-off service (every time we wanted a new bottle we went inside to ring it up, and we brought our bottle back outside with us). Come here for no-frills winery and good wine. I'd recommend bringing your own snacks to accompany their wine!

First time trying a Connecticut winery and I was pleasantly surprised. The winery initially seems…read moreoddly placed because you enter it in a subdivision but when you arrive to the winery it feels very secluded and peaceful. Very good vibe at Paradise Hills; tranquil is the right word. My husband and I accidentally arrived on a day where they were also having a craft fair which was super cool! The winery was busy but not so busy we couldn't sit down. We got to sip wine under the shade of the grape vines. The winery was also very enjoyable! I was skeptical having only been to vineyards in Illinois where the wine is subpar but this wine was really good! The whites are a bit stronger than the reds but the reds were honestly pretty good too! Overall, I really loved everything about the experience!!

I got the French onion soup, clam pasta, and banana pie, while he opted for the Caesar salad, pork chop, and cheesecake.

I've enjoyed many of the entrees and appetizers. I do not recommend the fried calamari. The calamari was rubbery, however it could have been an off day.

Also there's an cute option to dine outdoors. I went for lunch two weeks in a row. Both weeks the restaurant was pretty busy for a Tuesday afternoon. We all continue to come back because Luce has a great product.

For dinner, I got the special of shrimp and lobster and raviolis, which were a handmade pasta so very light and fluffy and the lobster stuffing had lobster meat in it and was very tasty. It was so good. I ate the whole bowl and had no leftovers! My friends all liked each of their meals and no one left with any doggie bags! They did offer us dessert But since we were going to a show, we did not have time for that. Highly recommended!

We were on the of the first few patrons for dinner that night and it got busy. Only thing I'd mention is because it got busy the service dropped slightly.

The mule is definitely my favorite drink here, it's been made perfectly each time I had it. We had a big group, so we ordered a variety of bar bites and I'm thoroughly impressed with the quality of all the food. Especially the garlic bread, wow!!! It was piping hot, fresh and fluffy and just perfect. The host for trivia did a fantastic job and created a super fun event for us. The questions were general-knowledge enough that mostly anyone could have participated. Somehow our team won and the prizes were so fun!! More people need to know about this place!!

I used to go down the street, but the music selection there changed. For those of you frequent to Southington, Spelunkers took over the old Dial 9 speakeasy location. It's a competitive food area and I didn't know what to expect. I'm happy to say that for being marketed as strictly a dive bar, Spelunkers hit all the marks and some. It also was surprisingly large inside compared to what it looked like from the outside (Which was great because some of the other bars nearby are cramped). Their burgers were good and my friends felt the same way about the food that they ordered as wll. They have ample seating (and a variety of it) as well as a pool table and some arcade games to do while listening to music. Prices for drinks were also fair. The interaction that I had with staff, although brief was very friendly. The band they had that night was excellent. Glad I came to see them. They played an eclectic mix of both genres and decades. They were energetic, their song choice were great and they were refreshing to see compared to the typical Southington fare. If they come back to Spelunkers, I'll free my schedule up to come and see. Been watching the socials . Happy to have a fun bar experience again around here and look forward to my next trip.
