    I did a wine day with a group and this was our favorite experience. We did the barrel tasting and it was done by the owner who is obviously very knowledgeable. He spent a lot of time with us explaining the wines and I think most of us ended up buying something.

    Such a cute indoor outdoor winery! We stopped in here on our ride from Denver to Telluride after lunch and did a wine tasting flight. So many great wines to choose from and only $15. There was no one in there while we were there but the bartender was very talkative and welcoming. They were bottling up some of the wines for fall and it seems like a great place to hang out in the summertime

    Nice relaxing space. They are located in the former United Fruit Growners Assn. shed near downtown and the Union Pacific railroad tracks. They have a large shaded outdoor space and indoor space next to tasting bar and production area. They offer 7 wines (4 tastes for $15 + tax). I got the 2022 Sparkling Blanc de Noir wine from the highest vineyard in North America at 6800 ft near Delores, CO. Most European & California vineyards are much lower in elevation under 1500 ft. Very lively with smooth taste and small bubbles. Next was the 2023 Pinot Noir from the same elevation. A strong tannic rich wine. Next was the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon from Box Car Vineyard near Cortez, CO. Much smoother red wine. My last taste was the 2022 Petit Verdot from southern Utah. The vineyard had been partially abandoned and Ordinary Fellow came in to manage/harvest the grapes. They produced only 70 cases and were down to 3 bottles. A red wine with more structure than the Cabernet. The soil is chalky providing a different growing environment but hotter than Box Car canyon in Colorado. So I bought 3 separate bottles (Sparkling, Cabernet Sauvignon and the Petit Verdot) and go my wine tasting for free. They can hold my wine to pickup Sun before I go back to Denver. They have wine clubs. Neil was my server and he knew each wine with details about growing environment and tasting notes. He made several recommendations + nearby food choices.

    Love the mission and the vision, especially being a business who believes in regenerative, hand harvesting for better quality over quantity.

    I wasn't sure about this place after reading some reviews, but my husband and I had a delicious…read moreexperience. We ordered a hamburger with a side of sweet potato fries (note I'm not a big fries eater, but the burger and fries were truly delicious). The burger was cooked to perfection, the slices of tomato were juicy and ripe and the fries were crispy with a creamy interior. We ordered a slice of the peach pie for dessert. The huge slice was topped with a crumble, side of whipped cream, along with small balls (molecular process?) of juicy peach balls. We came on the early side for happy hour (2 specialty drinks for the price of one- 9.00) two sangria flavors (green apple or peach)...whilst a tad sweet, we're good. The peach is less sweet than the green apple. If there are two of you ordering, order one per person and you can return for your second one even after happy hour ends.

    Oh my! What a wonderful experience we had this evening at the Tapestry Lounge at the Wine Country…read moreInn in Grand Junction. We opted for the more informal setting of the Tapestry experience over Caroline's. We're staying at the Wine Country Inn in Palisade this week and thoroughly enjoying our stay! The breakfasts each morning offer a variety of delicious breakfast options. The wine tasting at 5pm offers up two delicious choices from a local winery. And tonight's dinner was exceptional. I ordered from the Tapestry menu. My burger on a gluten free bun was phenomenal!!! My husband ordered the New York Strip off Caroline's menu, and he thought it was quite good. The ambience of this room is very warm and welcoming. I highly recommend dining here! Our server, Juan, was also really attentive and helpful. Tonight was a 5 star experience!

    So disappointed. I have wanted to stay here for some time…read moreas we drive through Palisade frequently. When we arrived, it appeared we'd interrupted the young lady checking us in. She seemed less than interested in our arrival. We'd arrived later in the evening. Our room was vey nice. Very comfortable. We decide to venture to the jacuzzi. No towels in the outside basket. We had to go inside to request clean towels. When the towels came out, we ask the young lady how to make the jets work in the jacuzzi? "Oh no, they're not working." No sorry, no other explanation, she just walked away. We did manage to get two jets working. It was pleasant. Breakfast was okay. Nothing special. The lady preparing the food was very nice. Checking out was easy and the young gentleman pleasant. Trouble started after we left. Our fault. We'd left our swimsuits in the closet. Have to say, 30 years of traveling we have left things behind in our hotels. Kids left toys, pillows, blankets.... It does happen. Not often! I called when we realized this, Tuesday after we'd departed. I explained we'd left our swim suits hanging in the closet. The woman said she'd check lost and found??? I'd given her our room #. She said the cleaners had not finished their rounds yet and to call back later. Okay then, but I just gave you the room number and told you where they were? Again our mistake, but where is the customer service? I was told to call back at the end of the day. I called at the end of the day. Great swimsuits found. I was then told the person who sends packages would be in touch in a day or two. Okay then.... Nope. I called again on Friday, giving the full two days for someone to call. I was then told the person is new and must have missed it. Okay, what now? Well, "you have to make a USPS for your package and we will send it on Thursday". What? "That's the day we send out mail". You cannot be serious. Why was I not told this when I initially called. I would not have to wait another week. Customer service is a big issue here. I should say severe lack of customer service! So disappointing. Yes we did get our suits. Again our fault for leaving them, but I never had such poor customer service.

    This was our first experience at this property…read more There was plenty of parking and we were welcomed in by the desk staff. Check-in was smooth. I had booked two rooms as we were traveling with another couple. They let us each pay for our own rooms separately at check-in. The rooms are very nice. The bed was comfortable as were the pillows. Our rooms both had mini fridge and microwave which was a nice touch. The views were beautiful. There was an evening reception where we were offered a glass of the wine from the property vineyard. We sat out on the porch to enjoy the wine and the evening. The pool and hot tub are well maintained and were quite enjoyable. This was a great location for our stay. I would come back.

    Restoration Vineyards was one of our favorite winery stops! The scenery is absolutely beautiful,…read moreand it's the perfect place to relax and take in the views. Even though it was 95°F outside, we stayed comfortable thanks to the plenty of shaded seating and outdoor misters. There are cozy chairs on the lawn where we spent quite a while enjoying our wine and the scenery. The winery is also pet-friendly both inside and outside, which was a huge plus for us. They don't serve food, but they typically have food trucks on-site. We did the tasting, which included all six wines currently available. My favorite was the White Blend, while my husband's favorite was the Red Blend. The staff was incredibly friendly. After we ordered our tasting inside, they even brought the remaining pours out to me while I was relaxing outside, which was such a thoughtful touch. Overall, Restoration Vineyards offers beautiful views, great wine, excellent service, and a very welcoming atmosphere. We would absolutely visit again.

    July 17, 2026 - Palisade, CO…read more Absolutely one of the best wineries we've visited in Colorado! The grounds are beautiful, with lush grass, plenty of shade, and cornhole games that make it easy to relax and spend an afternoon. They also have a dog-friendly outdoor patio, which is a great bonus for travelers with pets. We chose to sit inside and were fortunate to have Zander as our host. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the tasting experience enjoyable. My husband and I shared a tasting flight of six one-ounce pours for $20, and the tasting fee is reduced to just $10 if you purchase a bottle. The wines were outstanding, and we ended up taking home six bottles. Everyone on the staff was warm and welcoming, and the owner, Gary, even took the time to chat with us about their winemaking process. That personal touch made an already excellent tasting even more memorable. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would gladly return the next time we're in the Grand Junction area.
