   This was our first and last visit to Owera Vineyards. We had a reservation for our birthdays. When we arrived we stood at the host area for 10 minutes before anyone even acknowledged us. Once we were seated everything was very slow. They said they were busy but there were only a few other tables. We were brought out like warm water. It took a very long time before we had our orders taken. We order a pretzel appetizer and we said we could wait to give our entree order so that we could get the appetizer first. Our waitress said she could take the whole order together but would bring it out first. It took a long time before we received anything. At first we didn’t mind but tables around us were getting food before us when they arrived after us. We then received one of our entrees and were told the rest would be out shortly. Ten minutes later, we received another entree. Another ten minutes later we received a third entree. At this time I asked to have our pretzel appetizer canceled because we still hadn’t received it. We thought that would have been a quick appetizer to make. We were told it was coming right out. Ten minutes later we got our 4th entree with the appetizer. One of the entree was a seafood special that was way too salty. Another entree was an open face steak sandwich which was basically steak on top of bread. It was ordered medium rare and came out purple on the inside because it was raw. We were brought our bill and we asked to speak to a manager. Our waitress said she’d take care of our bill first. When the manager came over we explained how poor our service was. She basically said it was busy and thanks for the feedback. Truly a very disappointing way to spend a birthday dinner. Would not recommend!

   Great place. Great service. Food was great overall. Burger, fries, and soup were top notch. Pizza was average. Dough/Crust needs improvement.

   The weather that day was excellent making for a wonderful outside experience. The food was quite good, and the staff was exceptionally awesome. The only thing that gave me negative feelings was the food and drink prices. It's just WAY overpriced for the quality. We purchased several bottles of wine to take home because we enjoyed them from our tastings. But to be honest, we find wine from other vineyards of the same quality for close to half the cost. Adjust pricing to attract locals who are experienced in the wine-tasting clientele and I would recommend Owera Vineyards to others with no hesitation (and revisit way more regularly). It's up to you at the winery to decide what your business model looks like, but for my money, I believe you are headed down a quick profit track and then collapse. Not a good business model for vineyards that depend on long-term investment, growth, and expansion. Just my thoughts - thank you for reading - Barry..,

    The food was absolutely fantastic. My fiancé got the pesto chicken sandwich with fries. The sandwich was good and the fries were out of this world delicious. I got a sausage, arugula, caramelized onion pizza and it was delicious. The patio was perfect on a beautiful summer evening and the wine flights were very good. My fiancé liked one of the wines from his flight enough to purchase a bottle to take home. Overall a wonderful evening!!
