Our server, Linda, was excellent. She was attentive, kind, and managed multiple tables efficiently without compromising service. We truly appreciated her professionalism and effort.
Unfortunately, the front-of-house experience was extremely disappointing. The hostess took an unreasonable amount of time to check us in, did not acknowledge or greet us upon arrival, and failed to attend to other guests coming in. We had a 7:00 PM reservation and were not seated until 7:30 PM. The first two courses did not arrive until 8:30 PM, and by the time we finished dinner, it was 9:30 PM. The excessive delays forced us to cancel our plans afterward. Throughout this time, the hostess appeared disengaged and inattentive.
Additionally, I ordered the dry-aged steak as my main entrée and requested it cooked medium. It arrived significantly undercooked. The texture was tough, chewy, and overly fatty. Considering the dry-aged steak carried an additional charge on the menu, the quality and preparation did not justify the premium price.
Overall, while Linda provided excellent service, the lack of organization at the front and the disappointing food execution significantly impacted our experience.

I’m sharing this feedback in hopes it reaches management, as the experience felt fixable but ultimately unresolved.
Dinner at Deteria tonight started strong. The first three courses were well executed, and the service throughout the evening was attentive and professional.
Unfortunately, the main course fell well short. I ordered the steak medium, and it arrived clearly undercooked. Beyond temperature, the cut itself was tough and excessively fatty, which made it difficult to enjoy. I’ve had steaks in many places around the world, and this was among the more disappointing ones.
I did raise the concern during the meal. However, I was told the chef stood by the dish and that the preparation was correct. That response was surprising and discouraging, especially given the otherwise high standard set earlier in the meal.
I’m not someone who expects perfection, but I do expect acknowledgment when something misses the mark. With how strong the rest of the experience was, it felt like a missed opportunity to turn a negative into a positive.
Sharing this in the spirit of constructive feedback, as the restaurant clearly has strengths — but how moments like this are handled matters just as much as the food itself.

We stopped in here at the recommendation of a friend. We tried a few different items from the menu. Everything was done excellently. The servers were very nice and attentive. The old fashioned was very good. The sliders were tasty. The pasta was great. We like everything that we ordered.

We hosted our rehearsal dinner at Dettera Wine Bar and couldn’t be more grateful to the entire team for making it one of the most special dinners we’ve ever had. From start to finish, everything was handled with such care and kindness — the setup was perfect, the food was absolutely outstanding, and the service was seamless.
So many of our guests complimented the delicious menu and the beauty of the venue. The atmosphere was warm, elegant, and exactly what we hoped for. Every detail was thoughtfully executed, and the staff made the evening feel effortless and celebratory.
Thank you for helping bring this day to life in such a meaningful way. We can’t wait to return. Dettera will always hold a special place in our hearts!

We had our wedding at Dettera in December and could not be happier with EVERYTHING. Our guests are still raving about the food (especially the pasta), the service was wonderful as they anticipated all of our needs (even ones we didn’t know we had), and the atmosphere was so fun. Chef Power and his team executed a 4 course meal for us and our 80 guests flawlessly.
We’re so excited that we hosted our wedding at such a beautiful and memorable place that we get to return to again and again!

We had another wonderful meal at Dettera. Jess, the bartender made us delicious cocktails before we had our meal. Our server Jackie was so attentive, friendly and made great suggestions. As always, chef Jeffrey did an amazing job. I’ve included a photo here of my husband‘s hanger steak au poivre. It was so delicious. And the chocolate mousse dessert was out of this world.
If we could give more than five stars we would. Deterra is just the perfect place.

Came here for happy hour with a friend and I LOVED it! They have drink specials which are so delicious and cheap during the happy hour!
My friend and I also got the fig arugula pizza which was so so delicious and crispy! It was just perfect with our drinks. We also got the cheese board which was a little smaller than most cheese boards I had but still good!
I would definitely recommend this place as they have a super cute patio and spacious seats inside. Great for family dinners and catching up with family and friends!
