Great service, love the staff who I’ve worked with for my Mommy’s 90th birthday celebration. Everything was awesome. Sherrie and her team was easy to talk to and very accommodating, which made planning stress-free. The event itself was a big success, and everyone had a lovely time. A perfect place for a special milestone celebration.

We celebrated my Mom’s birthday at San Antonio Winery yesterday and it was perfect! This beautiful place looks like a movie set, and guests are made to feel welcome by the friendly smiling staff who greet you at the door with a lovely little sample of wine and port! This is a generational family owned business and they treat everyone like they’ve known you forever! The gift shop is huge and I dare you to make it past without finding just the right treasure to take home! The restaurant is a festive, happy gathering spot with lots of delicious options and desserts. We have been coming to celebrate family occasions for years and have never been disappointed. This is a must visit destination in So Cal, highly recommend. Parking is ample and free as well.

Italian based restaurant and winery. So good! I hadn’t been here in forever. You won’t regret eating here. Huge menu. Reasonable prices, top service, personal attention. Something for everyone. Lot’s of parking. Down the street a bit from the actual Winery. We got a bit confused but it was fine…just turned a couple of driveways too early. .
Order as you pass by the cashier. I suggest studying the menu before you go. No menus are at table side. They’ll personalize any order.
The wine is so fresh and tasty. We tried Port samples too(wine with brandy, 18% alcohol). What a treat.
There were 10 of us. I ordered grill shrimp salad. It was so fresh and tasty no dressing needed. There were plenty of plump shrimp so much so I shared with others. Finished it all. Other had pasta, eggplant parm, and a couple had burgers (?). Don’t ask me why.
Live music…guitarist playing tunes all night long. A bit noisey but a good time was had by all.

The food and ambiance were great, but unfortunately, the service didn’t quite match the quality of the meal. When our server brought our food, she accidentally dropped some sauce from the spaghetti plate onto my hand — it was hot. She didn’t apologize, just handed me some napkins and walked away without checking to see if I was okay. I didn’t want to make it a big issue since we were a party of nine celebrating my soon-to-be sister-in-law, but it definitely left an impression.
Throughout our early brunch, our server never once came by to ask if we needed anything. Each time we needed refills or something else, we had to flag someone down.
On a positive note, when we first arrived, an older gentleman greeted us warmly outside with a sample of wine and even offered my niece and nephew some grape juice, which they loved. As we were leaving, he took the time to go over the wine specials, and I ended up purchasing one of his recommendations. He was such a lovely and welcoming presence — I truly think the rest of the staff could take a page from his book.

We held my husband’s 70th Birthday Luncheon in Heritage Cellar, and it turned out so well! The food & wine were great, and celebrating in the wine cellar was perfect for my Italian husband who loves his vino! The servers & event organizers were wonderful. Our guests felt special, and we all will cherish the memories of this party!

My family and I have been here several times this year but the most recent was my birthday. The food was delicious and the restaurant staff were great. We have always had great service. We especially enjoy the sangria slushes sold in the gift shop area. We all decided we would get one on the way out after dinner. This is where the great service ended. We saw that register was not staffed so I asked a gentleman at the bar if we would be able to purchase any. He said no, the machines were off and they closed at 6. I could clearly see the slush machines were still on but It was around 6:15 so I decided to purchase some wine to take home. As I was picking out a few bottles, I saw an employee walk back to the “closed “ area and begin helping customers and ringing them up, one which was my mother. She bought me a slush and when I approached with bottles in my hand, the cashier immediately put up a sign saying she was closed. I went back to the bar area and waited in line to purchase my wine and the cashiers kept moving to different registers and helping other people who were in line after me. My dad walked up to the cashier and asked her why she was not helping people in line and moving to avoid it. I was ready to leave without purchasing anything at that point but he bought them for me as a gift. After the other great experiences we’ve had here, we all decided it’ll be a while before we come back.

This was truly a special experience for our group. The service, food, and overall atmosphere were outstanding. Having a private room made the visit feel intimate and memorable, and Makinzre was fantastic—her storytelling and knowledge of the winery’s history really brought the experience to life.
The food was excellent, our guests were engaged from start to finish, and everyone left talking about how unique and enjoyable the visit was. Thank you for making our group feel so welcome. 100% will returning with many future groups.
You all are the best !!!
