1 /5 Margo Gallegos: We did the super secret winery private chefs table tonight and…I don’t have words. The atmosphere was so incredibly cool I will give you that. The presentation of all of the dishes was impeccable. But, omg, the food…abysmal.
We started with crudités with a champagne pairing. This was good and no complaints. Next was a black cod with radish paired with a white wine. This was still good although the dish was a little salty. The second wine I finished approximately half of. The third fish course, oh boy. They gave us a brown Riesling which was paired with caviar fish and roe. I tried the Riesling with the caviar and gagged. I couldn’t deal with it. That Riesling is the worst wine I have ever tasted. I had them box the rest of this dish because my palette was ruined. The fourth pairing was a Chateauneuf-du-Pape and venison over a lentil salad and morel mushroom. It was so incredibly salty and the lentil salad tasted like grass clippings. Absolutely horrible. I left it. The dessert was a vanilla cake with pop rocks and a port. This was quite tasty but the port was so tart.
Also they gave us a bottle of water but never refilled it. I was so parched and then the check ins during dinner were so long I would be glad to see a human who worked there and black out and forget to ask.
All in all, cool experience but absolutely not worth the cost of the private experience. Zero stars if I could.
