I had a great birthday weekend brunch and tour with a group of girlfriends from college at Vizzini Farms Winery at the end of June 2013. The staff was very attentive despite the large size of our group (8 ladies in all). First, we decided to eat brunch. The menu was not very large but everyone enjoyed what they ordered. Personally, I had a great bowl of freshly cooked tomato soup and a delicious vegetable frittata. Next, we made our way to the back of the modest but interesting facility where we received an overview of the Vizzini family history, a lesson about wine-making 101, and the production process. The tour guide was very engaging, funny, and personable over the course of the tour. Finally, we made our way back to the wine bar where we sampled the lovely wines of the Vizzini Farm Winery. I fell in love with a few of the vineyards wines - Tuxedo Junction, Cabernet, and the Peach Chardonnay were my favorites! I must admit that I purchased a few bottles at the end of the tasting :) Overall, I had a great time with my friends and would love to come back again for a small gathering!

Well I only have one complaint but its one I cant overlook, I ordered an antipasta salad and I got cheese & crackers with a few grapes, when I asked Kevin the owner he informed me he was out of olives & artichoke hearts. I said that was ok, if you had let me know I would have ordered something else. He walked off and returned with a very small dish of artichoke hearts, olives & peppers. So not only is he a liar hes cheap. As far as the wine tasting part its was very good and the wait staff was excellent. Overall I give the expirencec 3 out of 5 stars, only because his wait staff was so good.

Quality was poor. Very poor. My husband and I had the carbonara, which was essentially scrambled eggs over penne, not carbonara. Also, there was no bacon in mine that I could find. My mother-in-law had the frittata, which she said was very bland, and a caeser salad, which was iceberg lettuce with caeser dressing and two croutons. In addition to the AWFUL food, service was slow and spotty at best. We also tried some of the wines, but none of them were enjoyable.

Service was rude. I stopped in to buy two gift cards for my family as a christmas gift. I felt like I was interrupting the lady working, but the place was empty. The gift cards are just handwritten on business cards, no brochures or anything I could give to highlight the business. My husband and I were going to also eat lunch, but I was so put off we just left. They lost out on all of it.

Drove down for a Saturday getaway with some friends hoping to enjoy. Food was average. Could not take a tour because they told us no one available to give us a tour. The waitress gave us great service but the owner seemed to have a dont care attitude. Anyway our first trip and our last trip to this winery.

Nice location right off highway would have been great for a quick tasting stop on my road trip. However I gave up after waiting for 15 minutes for some attention from the staff which was apparently overwhelmed with 2 tables. Should be staffed to actually taste and sell wine somewhat effectively.

This may have been a problem due to the Groupon, but this was the worst service I have ever had in my life. The wine was all right and the food (after the hours of waiting) was also all right, but my water was always empty and no one was getting good service.

My family and friends have visited Vizzini Farms Winery a number of times. We have always had a great experience. This is the only winery we have found that serves food. The food is excellent, and the wines as well. Just wish they were open on Sundays.

Everyone is so very nice. I make a trip to the winery a couple of times a year. They only have one special wine a friend loves....Miss Scarlet. Its only available in the fall. I can never walk out with just one bottle its usually at least half a case.

Great food. Great wine. Theyve changed the menu some, They hired a professional chef and he didnt disappoint. Tried alot of things while I was there, so spent more than expected, but totally worth it. We will be going back once a month for sure.

You will not find a better lunch for $10 anywhere in the country.The food is fresh and the service is excellent.I have drove past this place for the last two years and never even knew it was there(needs a new and bigger sign).

Came with a group of ladies to participate in some wine tasting, but was greeted with horrible customer service. In addition we drove 1.5 hours. Will not return.

Look for the Groupon! - Tour, then tasting, then lunch - reasonable prices - food is quite tasty - in general white fruity wines are their best features

Waited for 20 minutes at the bistro, never got served, so we left. From the other reviews it looks like we arent the only ones.
