Our first time here, and we most definitely will be back. We decided to do this as a date and glad we chose this as our something new. The food was good and the scenery, ambiance, and view were romantic.

This place is really cool. Best way to get up to the winery and restaurant is the skyline chair ride. The wine is very good for the ones we tried. We did not have any food but heard nothing but good things. They have beer choices also. The view is fabulous so a great place to visit. Restrooms were clean.

Fun, low key place to hang out with friends. Views from the deck are beautiful for miles upriver and downriver! Great selection of wines and beers to enjoy in a unique venue. Ride the sky lift!

Beautiful views! Great dining experience! We took my daughter here for her 13th birthday, & we couldn’t have been any happier with that decision. The food was amazing!!!! We got the spinach & artichoke dip for appetizer. It’s the best I’ve ever had IN MY LIFE. My daughter loves salad and she got a Caesar salad. I had an amazing chicken wrap. My husband had the bourbon chicken sandwich. Our server, Mitchell was attentive, polite, & just awesome.Thank you for such a nice place to celebrate our different family occasions!

This place is the best! Beautiful views of the Mississippi, great wine and a perfect ambience! We did the alpine coaster (it was awesome) and enjoyed a bottle of wine on the deck with a band accompanying us! What a great day!
