I had the Bacon Jam Burger and my friend had the Smokehouse Burger. Both of us had a side of fries. The food came out in about 10 minutes, which wasn't bad. My burger was delicious and the fries were excellent. My friend said his burger and fries were fantastic. They have a full bar and I really liked their decor.

I even ate every bite of the potatoes and the Brussels sprouts. They were delicious as well. The chicken had a crispy crusty outside that has the wet hot honey sauce on it and it is tender and very tasty with just the right textures. Also had great atmosphere and good service.

Bright and open space - primarily small plates but a few entrees on the menu. Perfect spot for meeting/chatting. Lots of different seating options for a variety of group sizes and yet comfy for one person. Cute decor and lovely art collection (as one would expect). I had the pimento cheese crostini, the soup of the day (Chickpea Chili), and a lavender lemonade. All three items were excellent. Comforting, homemade, and the perfect end to an adventure wandering around the arts center and the gift shop.

Nice meeting spot for the area, bright and open, with a decent selection of charcuterie, small sandwiches, soups, and salads. We had the charcuterie board, with three cheeses, two meats (salami and country ham), crackers, bread, grapes, olives, nuts. Very large board. Was bummed there was a large hair in some of our cheese, but things happen. We also had the pimento in greens. Pimento was creamy, but lacked seasoning. The Murrini trio came with the previously mentioned pimento cheese, hummus (also under-seasoned, but also creamy), naan, crackers, and pickled veggies. The pickled veggies appeared to be made on site and were great! The deviled egg flight we had, supposedly three different flavors, also lacked pizazz. Not bad, just not much else either. We also had tea, water, and mimosas (Prosecco out of the bottle into orange juice). They also have lemon and basil burrata, a roasted veggie sandwich, a turkey club. Their dinner selections are limited to: pasta and spinach, pot roast, a toasted sesame salmon bowl, and the seared seafood salad. You go up to the counter to order. This is not a spot where you have a specific server to your table. Service was as good as it could be. There were two servers/cashiers. Both very kind and helpful, but very young and basically doing the best they could without any sort of oversight or management. I would come here again for a meet up or basic light lunch. But it's not a place you'd take your out of town friends or take people to impress them.

I ordered The Floyd and my friend got the Paloma & a Strawberry Margarita. Also, ordered the Bacon Bleu Cheese Dip with Pita Chips: AMAZING!!! Server was preoccupied throughout evening, so not very attentive. She was fast getting our ticket to the table & processing my payment.

Ok. So...10 minutes in, I was thinking "2 stars...if they are lucky!" But you know what...? Turns…read moreout they were lucky, so 3 stars it is! Things got a little better and the two wines that are actually under their name/label were surprisingly delicious! Anyway, we were driving back to Louisville from Nashville and the Fella filled me with joy when he said we could stop at a couple wineries on the way. Not only is it a great way to break up the monotonous drive, but it allowed me to try more Kentucky wineries (like a Pokemon, I wanna try 'em all!). Cave Valley Winery was the right distance between the first place we stopped and getting home, so we decided this would be our final boozy-stop on the way. It is easy to get to, just a small loop off the highway at the Park City exit. It was a strange first impression when we got there, though. The winery isn't so much a winery, as it is a room inside an old hotel that also operates as the site's regular bar. They were also getting ready for a Ladies' Shooting competition to be held on the weekend, there were lots of gun signs and promotional booths and tents set up and sponsor banners. We weren't initially sure that we were at the right place...maybe some of the banners were covering the winery sign? Also...guns and alcohol...what could go wrong, amirite? It was strange. When we walked in to the bar, there were two people futzing around with the register iPad and a printer. It took a bit before we were greeted, and when we were, they both mentioned that they were not the tasting host and would go get her. While she was being retrieved, we were able to look over the wine list and the woman at the bar got us started with our first sample, though she admitted she didn't really know anything about the wines. Once the usual wine tasting host, Amber, came in we were ready to lock and load. (Get it...because of the gun range...no? Ok.) You get 5 samples for $5. But be aware, they only have TWO wines under their own label. The two they have are surprisingly delicious, if I do say so myself. As for the rest of the two-page wine list, they are all wines from Wight-Meyer, which is not one of my favorite places either. So that was a little disappointing. And they were out of a few of the wines I wanted to taste. Amber was pretty alright though, with some information on tasting notes. But she was minutes from the end of her shift and asked that we close out right away. Which was fine, we needed to get on the road again anyway. Overall, I am conflicted. It was a weird experience, but their wines are decent and once Amber got to our tasting, all was well. But temper your expectations if you are a winery-hopper like me. (If I was feeling more generous, I would give another star just for all the puppers roaming about....but really, 3 stars is where its at.)
