Memorable wine with nice foods to accompany. A sparkling white that we had previously enjoyed was no longer available here. The helpful staff pointed us to their sister vineyard closer to Greenport. We were not disappointed there either. Friendly helpful staff, a beautiful venue and enjoyable wine and food made this a great stop and worth our while boating over from CT.

Visited this vineyard touring our wine tour recently and was pleasantly surprised…read more We decided to seat in the Small patio area with views of the vineyard. Our server was welcoming and knowledgeable on their wines and even offered some suggestions based on some of our party's tastes. Learned that the vineyard has two rooms one can stay in which is something we look forward to in the fall. Wines were very good and I'd definitely e back in the fall not just for the wine but to experience a stay in their B&B.

Jedediah Hawkins is not just a wedding venue and it's an amazing wedding as well! I would come here all day for lunch or dinner.the staff here is amazing and very attentive to making sure you're taking care of. The food here is too notch and some of the best food I have had in a long time. My in law had some finger food passed around and everything was flavorful & cooked to perfection. No frills or nothing fancy but flank steak skewers, chicken skewers, grilled shrimp, fried arancini rice balls, and truffle arancini balls were 10/10 and out this world. Steak & chicken was so tender and seasoned to perfection. This place is located in St. James and a little out of the way for me but I'm a def do a day trip where I'll hit a winery and have lunch here with the wife. I'm looking forward to seeing what their lunch and dinner menu looks like and definitely looking forward to having a steak here. Overall this place is a beautiful place to have your wedding with a great staff and amazing food. You will not be disappointed and what I love about this place, it's not over the top and reasonable prices for weddings. They offer different packages and very dope place.

Quick disclaimer that this review is solely about the restaurant portion of Jedidiah Hawkins (and…read morenot the Inn). For those that are confused by this, you can totally stay at Jedediah Hawkins, but you're also entirely allowed to just have a fantastical dinner, like my wife and I did for her summer birthday a few months back. Well actually, there's reason we wanted to come here for a while and that was due to Jedediah also being able to host weddings. We looked into JHI as a venue, but in the end we realized it wasn't for us and instead got to check the place out for a special occasion (a la her birthday). The place feels like a little Victorian bed and breakfast when walking around on the grounds and once inside, the seating areas and ambiance emanates an older take to them, like dining in a historic house. It wasn't necessarily special, but lended itself well to the vibe. Wait staff was relatively on point and our waitress (as well as a few other employees) were very friendly. The menu prices were also friendly enough for this slightly pricier spot. Not a huge menu, but enough choices for the two of us to find several tasty meal options. We began with the truffle fingerling fries that had parmesan and chive on them with a side of crème fraiche. They were absolutely delicious. Crispy with a nice, soft potato interior. For the main meals, the wife got the 1/2 roasted chicken with lemon jus, cheddar grits, and broccolini (which was all superb) while I went with the mushroom and black truffle risotto (which was outstanding). Both dishes had flavors that really popped and from presentation to tastes, everything was spot on. Oh, and so was the crusty bread slices and spread given to start (almost forgot about that!). What I also can't forget to mention is a part of Jedediah that might not technically count as the restaurant: the speakeasy. It's nothing elaborate, but right near the entrance to the dining room is a slightly hidden gated off stairway which (if it's not reserved) can be entered in where you'll find a bar and a handful of tables and seats. This spot was something we really wanted to try to check out and luckily no one was using it the night we came. Our waitress even offered for us to have dessert down there (which was awesome) and one of the managers delivered everything down. What did we have as the final portion of our meal? Some beignets with cardamom sugar, ricotta, and strawberry sauce (which were definitely tasty, but didn't live up to Cafe Du Monde in NOLA) and some after dinner drinks of an Irish coffee with Jameson and a blackberry-based cocktail on the main menu that I decided to save for having with dessert. It was a sweet way to end a fantastic trip to Jedediah Hawkins. Overall, Jedediah Hawkins is a wonderful spot to have a meal. It might not necessarily be an everyday dining location as it has a specific old school vibe to it, but then again, if you can afford it, the menu, staff, and space comes together to warrant a trip almost any time as well as an easy five stars for this review. And if you're too full after eating, you could always stay there and review that experience. Bonus!

Owners Jerry and Lorry are some of the nicest people Tall Dad and I had ever met. They were warm,…read moreinviting, and we could tell that they genuinely cared about their craft. The owners built their house as a B&B, so everything was new, yet personal. Each suite has it's own jacuzzi tub and fireplace, and feels private like a hotel, yet warm and inviting like a B&B should be. The Blue Iris is well kept and cared for, and their grounds ads are a nice walking distance to Bedells. The location also allows for an easy night out on the town, or to stay in and enjoy the rocking adirondack chairs around the beautiful fire pit. Lorry's style was top notch - everything was designed and picked out for very specific reasons. Our room was american themed. But The Blue Iris truly shined at breakfast time! We were welcomed with lemon squares, coffee and a raspberry yogurt served on gorgeous china. Goblets of water, and juice felt expensive and hearty. Lorry and Jerry joined our conversation, but were not overbearing. Didn't inject themselves into our time, but their opinions were a welcomed addition to our morning.

Blue Iris: A Serene & Enchanting Get Away…read more Lorry and her husband were wonderful hosts for my girlfriend and I. We came in from Manhattan searching for a quiet and relaxing get away and that's exactly what we got. Their house is absolutely beautiful and sits on a pristine piece of land, well-lit as you approach, and the gravel driveway reminiscent of an older long island but still very modern. Inside, the house is sublimely decorated with a classical piano selection playing in the background. The Rooms are upstairs, equipped with a fire place (turned on with the flick of a switch), a Jacuzzi tub in the bathroom and a firm queen sized bed. Our room was charmingly decorated with rusted treasure chest keys hanging from the wall and a 1920's Country Wall Phone with a crank handle that actually turns. The rooms are as warm and inviting as they are comfortable and tranquil. The Blue Iris is truly an enchanting get away for anyone seeking to escape the stress and chaos of everyday life. Our host, Lorry, was absolutely delightful and as helpful as could be. As soon as we made our reservation with her, she recommended dinner/spa reservations (A Lure had the best peppercorn Tuna and the Blue Sage Spa had a very relaxing couples massage), and confirmed our reservation for us at A Lure when we arrived (as well as handing us a discount card to a majority of the wineries, restaurants, and spas in the area). Lorry was there for our every need and wasn't even phased when we accidentally broke her wine glasses (which she didn't charge us for)! Breakfast started with fruit cups, coffee, tea, corn bread, and finished with a egg bacon and vegetable souffle which was to die for. When we visited some of the wineries around town and we mentioned to the employees that we were staying at Lorry's they even made a note to tell us how wonderful her breakfasts are. While we visited in February, the Blue Iris is just a small 2 minute drive or 15 minute walk to the water/beach. I'd 100% recommend the Blue Iris to any and everyone and I look forward to staying there again!

I asked the front desk if there was communal ice and he instructed me that there was ice accessible in this shed looking building. In the freezer there was, surprise surprise, no ice left but the worst part about this was there was raw poultry in this freezer where the ice was located definitely resulting in cross contamination. Not sure why a business is guiding guests to retrieve ice from a freezer that contains someones personal meat storage but this was revolting and deserved to be documented.
