The Grape Escape has Great Wine and service. The new location now offers a front porch and back patio for parties. In addition the owner, Jim is always there to answer any and all questions. The new location is great with on-street parking with high visibility on Pine Street.

The Grape Escape supports and promotes local music. Still Married performs at their CD Release Party.

Some places just exude a warm and welcoming vibe -- The Grape Escape is one of those rare, friendly, fun wine bars. Jim does a marvelous job of keeping a wide array of wines available and his support of local music and local musicians is commendable. A wonderful addition to downtown Redding.

Hands down the most knowledgable wine guru I've met in redding.

Coming from LA and decided to hit a wine bar, hands down beats many wine bars in LA from old town Pasadena to DTLA/Orange.

Don't bother! Horrid service, they couldn't care less about you and play on the phones instead of serving.

Felt like having a steak and though I wasn't too hip on the prices Yelp was showing me in their…read moremenu, I'd been to nearly every other steak place in Redding. The entrance was a bit tough to recognize. In addition, the sign requesting patrons to wait to be seated was absent personnel. The youngster arrived while on the phone taking a reservation. Further delay as she coordinated seating for the large group (showing up on Wednesday, she shared). She mentioned they were slow and said I could select whatever table I liked. I ordered a savory martini and filet mignon, mashed potatoes and French onion soup. Soup arrived with the martini and the two could not have been more oppositely received. The soup exquisite, the martini...nearly undrinkable. But to be fair, I wasn't expecting an overwhelming bell pepper flavor. Black pepper Absolute Vodka was the description. I detest bell peppers. I tried to choke down as much as I could, then decided to give up halfway through. The soup was sublime. A 1/4 inch slice of brown toast under the melted Swiss cheese, the broth and onions delicious. I requested a 6 ounce pour of the Caymus California Cabernet Sauvignon with the steak. It arrived with my meat and potatoes beautifully plated. I'm not sure I wasn't served a sirloin. That filet was the shape of no filet I've ever bought or been served. But it was perfectly cooked and the mashed potatoes were sublime - buttery and flavorful. The wine with less tannins than I anticipated- I really enjoyed that. Service was attentive and both the hostess and my server checked on me. My drive back to Sacramento will be pleasant.

We had a 5pm reservation, first time to this restaurant. We ordered some items off of the Happy…read moreHour Menu: corona, lemon drop (so good!) Mac and cheese with bacon, French onion soup and the surf & turf skewers. French onion Soup was DELICIOUS, we added a little salt to the other two dishes and they were really good too. For dinner I ordered the $24 Caesar - it was good and it was big but it was a lot for a basic good tasting Caesar. Husband ordered the Chicken Parm over pasta with a red sauce and he loved it. Portion was huge and he brought half home. For dessert we had the cheesecake and the cream brûlée, both really good. Only downside, if you are dropping almost $200 for dinner, the bathrooms need to be clean and upscale. Mold in the ladies room toilet at the waterline - yuck - and Toilet paper dispenser broken and laying on the floor in the stall. This needs improvement. Overall we were happy with our meal and we will be back.

I'm genuinely bummed that I don't live in Redding to make visiting the Moseley Family Cellars…read moretasting room a more frequent occurrence! The historic Thompson House is the perfect backdrop for wine tasting. The thing I love most about MFC is that it doesn't feel like a wine bar. It's got wine and a bar... but it feels like you're hanging out at your trendy friend's house. There's a living room area with fireplace, a dining room, a front porch with a cafe table & chairs, and big front lawn with Adirondack chairs in pairs & quads. Truly a choose your own pleasure! We couldn't pass up the perfect late spring afternoon, so I sunk into a deep Adirondack chair and enjoyed my wine tasting al fresco. The neon sign in the front window is the cutest, and just added to the overall vibe. Chuck was so hospitable, and brought me each pour from his post behind the bar inside. He gave insight into each wine, and then disappeared so I could enjoy at my own pace. MFC is very dog friendly, inside too, but I can't think of anywhere I've been in recent memory that was more perfect than wine tasting here on the front lawn with my pup in my lap. In the great words of Kurt Vonnegut, "If this isn't nice, I don't know what is."

We had to bring some home with us. They are located in downtown at the Thompson House and the owner is sooooo nice. It's clean and calm, perfect for a date night or evening with friends. I highly recommend this place.
