For as much as I hate to see you close, I would hope that you would make it right with all your loyal members that are due compensation for wine, gift cards, or cash. Chuck & Jen built a great wine club which we have been members since day one. Not sure what happened, but to only have ownership for such a short time and end up closing with no notice and especially charging our monthly membership dues basically 5 days before the closure, is quite concerning. Hope you reach out to your members with more than we got.

This restaurant didn't hire my girlfriend a few years back so I'm glad they are closing. They practice ageism. They probably only want 21-25 year olds running around there for certain reasons. Good riddance.

We had such a great experience during our dinner here this evening. My husband and I decided to go out for dinner at the last minute and they took our reservation for 2 without any hesitation on a Saturday night. From the moment we walked in we were greeted with smiles and we're seated promptly. Our waiter was really nice and very attentive and was always around the corner ready to attend to us. We ordered the Korean tacos and pot stickers for appetizers and they were delicious! My husband had the pizza and I had ordered the pork chops which were both really good. It did not disappoint us at all.Overall experience was great! We will definitely be back soon !
Food is usually good. As with anything, though, sometimes it doesn't hit the mark. Service can be good but, at other times, will have a lot to be desired. Went last night & the service was excellent, however, the time before, our server was really bad & we hardly ever saw her. When we did, we had to summon her over or she would've just continued to ignore us. Our daughter even tried to be friendly, giving her the benefit of a doubt, & asked if she was really busy. The server denied that she was! So, unfortunately, you won't always get the best service; just hope you won't get the gal that bartends as well. Additionally, don't expect to order & get your food right away; it does take a little longer for them to get it out to you. Not the best if you have little ones. Last night, there was live music (one man playing his guitar & singing). It was great & he provided just the right amount of volume so that we could still hold a conversation between ourselves w/o shouting or just sit back to listen & enjoy. However, my daughter & son-in-law commented that the last time they visited, the music was so loud they couldn't even hear themselves think! Overall, despite the inconsistencies, we still come back because the good outweighs the bad.

Exquisite is an understatement. Well executed fine dishes and they have Keto options. Well crafted drinks and amazing wine selection. The ambiance is family oriented, inviting, and cozy. Upon entering you are immediately greeted with a beautiful cellar store where you can purchase wine bottles. The theme continues on to the restaurant adding to that cozy vineyard feel. The server are a bunch of young well rounded individuals that have impressed my husband and I with their professionalism and knowledge of the menu and drinks. The owner goes around introducing himself and welcoming the guest. Restrooms are immaculate. They have live music on certain nights. Wish we had found you earlier Vino.

This was our second time there tonight for my wife’s birthday. The wine and food was excellent! The service was also good considering they were very busy. Live music was also a nice touch. Highly recommend this restaurant.Dietary restrictions: My wife is allergic to nuts so they baked her some fresh chocolate chip cookies. Amazing! What restaurant does that? Super impressive.

This is a not-so-hidden gem of north Fresno. Great wine club membership, fantastic food, great mood & vibe. Live music every now & then, and they're starting to do special dinners based around different paired spirits & wines. Sad I'll miss the whiskey dinner.The short rib dish with polenta is to die for. My lady & I get it literally every visit. Great snackable/shareables. They also have a menu where you can taste 1 ounce pours at a very afforadable price of lots of different wines if you're feeling adventurous or want to try something new. Whiskey flight nights are also a thing, though I believe the days have changed. 10/10
Very good ?
