            This was a wonderful evening. Expensive so can’t do it very often but def worth the splurge. The people there are great which just added to the experience and the food was quite tasty

            As usual, we had a wonderful experience. The service was excellent from the pre-dinner bubbly to the coffee after desert. We enjoyed every course of the menu, which were perfectly paired with great wines.

            We had the Valentine's Wine Dinner at The Farmhouse. The setting, service and food were exquisite. My only complaint was the long waits between courses. We were seated in the patio area (enclosed), which was apparently the last section to be served each course. The presentation is fantastic, and the pours ample. At the end, the chef came around to speak with each table which was a nice touch. This is a great place for that special occasion!

            This is the best meal we’ve had in Charlottesville. The wine and food go together perfectly. The ambience is really sublime, and the experience is fantastic. We really enjoyed the lamb and garlic hummus, that was a complete surprise. The Chardonnay, which was on the second course, was a revelation, we both thought that it was much better than we thought it would be. Highly highly recommend this place.

            The wine pairing dinner at the Farmhouse was a perfect way to celebrate a special occasion. I highly recommend combining it with an overnight stay, which comes with a fabulous breakfast.
