An excellent BBQ spot which was on Food Network. It’s in an adorable town and makes a perfect lunch or dinner spot at the end of your shopping trip. Very laid back; order at the counter and sit at your picnic table. Inside and outside dining.
It closes at 8, so get there in time!

The best wine, and Italian cuisine in the city...and I am Italian and Spanish...so the place is always packed but you can get lucky at the bar. A must try is the fresh burrata with pesto and toast points with a red.

A vineyard we love and has the most scenic drive. It boasts a conservatory replete with banana trees-not kidding. Bring your own picnic to eat at their tables in the conservatory or out on the ski chalet type deck overlooking the lake. You can also picnic on the expansive lawn near the lake. The wine and chocolates are delicious...very cool spot.

Just up the road on route 20...A vineyard that has won some serious awards probably because the vines originated in Italy and brought by the owner! Though we know the soil has a lot to do with the taste of the grape, you get the picture, this guy is a long time winemaker. The wine is delicious and the stone patio makes you feel as if you are in Italy. Very close and worth the time. The food is the perfect accompaniment to the wine.
