Reviews of Vineland Estates Winery (Winery)

Von

Thank you for the Exceptional Service and Amazing Food. With gorgeous views of the vineyard as you drive up into the boutique shop, restaurant & chapel. Their Fall Dinner menu has the variety and selection you need when your looking to dine out or celebrate a special occasion. Plus their wines are one of the best in Twenty Valley. This place gets a 5 star review as the taste, presentation & price is worth every bite. Sip & Savour and book your reservation. You won’t be disappointed.

Max Lahn

Exquisite food, awesome service and the wine matched the food perfectly. From Italy :))

Dino Magnatta

A pleasant surprise and pre fixed delicious lunch at $45 per person which I feel was great value considering the innovative menu portions and presentation details The food was as good as it looked and was nice to see the Chef occasionally come out to look over the dining room although not sure what he was really looking at or for; would have been extra special if he came out and personally checked on the tables (however not expected of course). The service was quiet personalities wise and the reisling we had was deliciously paired with our food. Our water was consistently refilled and they packed our deserts and sent off in a lovely bag. From the wine shop to the restaurant the staff were all extremely friendly.

Amazing as always

Cass Loves Peace

This place treats people like kings and queens. The food is stellar, and the view of the estate was amazing no matter where you sit. Covid guidelines were also amazing! Worth coming for a 3 course meal

Audaciously Me !

Went this summer for my friends birthday. Tour guide was dope, and full of information! Loved the wine & the food at the restaurant was delicious. Definitely enjoyed sitting on the patio with friends.

Amelia Chand

Enjoyed a delicious dinner here with my boyfriend and the family. It’s a little more pricey, but everything we had was amazing ! Definitely a treat, and paired with some of the highest rated wines !

As always, the food and service is fantastic!!!! Overlooking the vineyards while enjoying mouthful of fabulous food that gets washed down with delicious wine is a real treat! Will be back ! If you are on the fence... just go! You won't be disappointed!

Jacob Chartrand

Probably the best (albeit most expensive) meal I've ever had the pleasure of eating. The tasting menu is $85, but I can't recommend it enough. Every bite I had was planned out perfectly by the chefs. The brownie I had for dessert is one of the best things I've ever eaten. You truly can't understand what one of these experiences is like unless you've tried it before.

Aaron Prasad

Service was really great and food was excellent. Not to mention how good their Riesling and Cabernet Franc are...

Al (Thunder)

Excellent food. Beautiful place.

Chris Braun

Great dining experience every time we eat there.

Beautiful estate. edit - revisited Sept 26 for lunch. Service was not streamlined, disorganized. Food was good.

Rachel H

Loved this winery before I lived in Vineland. Now I can go by often and the quality and service are constant. It's a must visit for anyone coming to the area.

Ben Yang

Very good food made from fresh ingredients. The restaurant has great view of the vineyard. Would recommend for special occasions

Megan Hall

Beautiful spot for wine and food lovers a-like! Overlooking the cute Niagara wine farm region, you can even see the lake in the distance. The semi-dry Riesling is my favourite and is a must try. Made a booking at their restaurant, it is such a deal for a 3 course meal. Had the fried calamari, burger and frites, and topped it off with an incredibly indulgent sticky toffee pudding.

Karen Mena

Beutuful place the best service ever

Mike Sabourin

Amazing food, very seasonally inspired!

Jerry Bilous

A simply beautiful winery. From the exquiseltly manicured gardens to the delicious menu items in the restaurant. The views are intoxicating, the scent of the smokers, the taste of the gamay... An experience forever indelled in memory. A MUST VISIT! Stay and eat, have a glass of wine... You'll never forget it...

Chi Wang

Very good restaurant, very good scene.

A R

One of our favorite stops in the entire Niagara region… Niagara on the lake has become a little too “popular” and a lot of the places in the Vineland region bring that great vibe without the crazy prices found in NOL

MelAnne Schuurman

Awful customer service. We left without even trying anything. Common complaint: they try to make it seem like they're doing you a favour by accommodating you. Do not recommend.

Gordon Diver

A fantastic place to spend an afternoon with quality wines, food and atmosphere.

Matthew Wright

Truly beautiful corner of the world. It's small building wise but everything details is just right. Quality over quantity. Their tour was fun and ended with a 3 wine tasting, not as in depth as others I've been on but still enjoyable and informative. I was disappointed in my food for dinner particularly the main, but we chose not to get the 5 course set menu. So maybe that would have been much better. Everything was well plated, and the deserts were amazing. Definitely have some fabulous wines! And 100% worth a visit!

Davindra Ramnarine

I've seen people complain about the prices at the restaurant at Vineland and I'm wondering what they're talking about. They're offering a three course meal for $45 for lunch. I's not your average $10 fast food meal, but in my opinion it's definitely worth the price considering the quality of the dishes, the location, and the service. I started off with the Grilled Calamari which was served atop an eggplant mash, with spiced chickpeas and herbs. For the entree I had the duck confit and followed that with a delicious panna cotta with local strawberries. We also had the trout which my wife, who isn't a seafood fan, absolutely loved. I will definitely recommend this restaurant for anyone visiting the area.

Denise DS

Let me just say, that the very best dining experience I've ever had in all of Canada is at Vineland! I have been here multiple times, during different seasons as well, and each and every single time I've visited - the food was ridiculously delicious and the service impeccable. Always on point! The restaurant itself is so beautiful, charming and almost gives you a 360 degree view of the vineyard. I always feel good eating here because everything about it is so perfect! Must try!

Jiheon Song

The best lunch experience ever!!!! Definitely worth the drive from Toronto

Stewart Attlesey

They have a really nice tasting room and the tasting fee is waived if you buy some wine. (There is a minimum purchase requirement, but unfortunately I didn't make note of it.) They have an insane number of products to choose from at the tasting bar: 50! If you go, check out their Elevation Cabernet and Elevation Riesling. You will probably buy at least one bottle of each. They also have a nice selection of cheeses to choose from. Well worth the visit.

Charles Burton

Superb

Alaleh - FoodyTO

First impressions of Vineland Estates is that it is out of the way, but it is worth the trip for great wines and even better food. Their patio has an outstanding view of the surrounding grape trees and the winery. They have a good collection of wines. Their appetizers were great, the salads were fresh and flavorful, and the duck was delicious. We had the Cab Merlot and would definitely recommend it. Vineland Estates is worth the drive.

Marina Wang

Incredible food and wine pairings at the restaurant! This place has been our favourite winery in the area for many years now and it never disappoints. Their many different Rieslings are amazing- their late harvest one was what impressed us to begin with and then their boteek Rieslings kept us coming back for more! I wish their wedding venue allowed more people as I would have loved to host my wedding here.

Michael Giorgi

I love this winery. It has to be the most picturesque in Niagara, possible in Ontario. It's also an unparalleled location for a wedding reception. Just imagine looking out over the vineyard and the trees surrounding the property as you're celebrating the wedding. The wine shop is always stocked with their best selection of wines, all of which are delicious. The other items for sale in the shop are selected as they compliment the quality of the wine. The staff is helpful and knowledgeable. The restaurant is fantastic and the menu has a lot of thought and care put to offering the best available assortment of food. Covid restrictions are adhered to so you can feel safe coming in to browse for your favourite wines.

Ramsey Kilani

I had the chef's creative combo with the wine pairings. All 3 courses were delicious, couldn't have asked for more, especially at the price. The patio and estate buildings were also gorgeous, you can get some very nice photos.

Jen Antony

Such a great experience for my mom’s birthday lunch at this restaurant yesterday! The food was phenomenal, the service was good, the patio was so unique/lovely, the property is overall gorgeous, and we even got to experience a helicopter take off from the property during our meal. The restaurant must be so good that someone flies in on a helicopter to eat there. We honestly do not feel the restaurant is pricey as we’re seeing in some of the comments below. For $45, getting an app, main, and dessert is pretty awesome from a price perspective. We will be back to visit again and again! Hoping to try a few new items next time, so I’m hoping the menu is ever-changing/evolving!

Maureen Linehan

This was not a planned stop for our day in Niagara but we saw the gorgeous estate in the distance and had to check it out. It poured rain while we were there so we didn't get a chance to look at the grounds (next time!). Staff were very friendly and knowledgeable and I found the explanation or each wine series processing, including learning about some of their unique equipment quite interesting. Great lesson!! We enjoyed both the Elevation and Reserve series of reds. They have a beautiful shop with many different products from local crafters. Pottery, jewellery and glassware included. (Loved the crystal decanters!!). Also a "market" on the upper level where you can purchase charcuterie plates and large selection of foods (oils, vinegars, sauces, syrups, dips etc) for purchase. It looked like this area also did private events or tastings.

Glen Moffat

Very nice place. nice selection of wines. Encourage others to come and enjoy

Incredible winery! Awesome wine and staff!

Shana McChesney

Incredible meal at dinner. The tasting menu with wine pairing was definitely worth it. Amazing service, very professional in every aspect. Didn’t feel rushed and enjoyed the experience. We joined their wine club as a result.

David David

One of my favourite wineries. Great wines that you won't find at the LCBO.

Dorothy Land

What wonderful experience from start to finish. Wines are excellent Food was superb and staff was attentive. Great COVID-19 protocols in place. We will be back.

Mrs Webster

My favorite restaurant in all of Niagara region! Perfect for everyday awesomeness or any celebration.

Peter C

Excellent food (and wine pairings). Superb service. Beautiful view and ambience. We will be back.

Melanie Nagels

Vineland Estates is so beautiful and special to my family. I went in today and was greeted by such friendly staff. The young gentleman who rang me up was awesome and made my day. Thank you!

Samira H. DIALLO

The place is so beautiful with breathtaking views and delicious desserts

Leon PRESNER

The vineyard grounds are immaculate... The wine selection is simply excellent. Not one wine I did not like. #1 quality. Staff super nice, friendly and knowledgeable. Absolutely recommend!! 5 star+

Duo d'Amore

Updated! As a string duo, trio and string quartet performing at weddings and corporate events, we have performed at Vineland Estates a number of times in the past. What we like about this location is the beauty of the surroundings, especially being so close to the vines for an outdoor ceremony. The rolling hills are also attractive. Vineland has a number of great locations on their property where weddings can be held. We have performed on the deck at the winery and also in the carriage house for many years, and we highly recommend this venue as well as the staff.

Jeff Simmons

Excellent wine club member events

joseph john

Very nice place. Very Friendly staff. We didn't dine at the restaurant. We just went for the sights and views then went to the shop and bought a couple bottle of wine.

Samuel Sandoval Solis

Great experience, great food, awesome view, perfect wine! Highly recommend to talk to Maya, she is very knowledgeable on win s and the region!

Diana Tomasella

If there was a 10 star rating they would deserve it. Beautiful, well kept grounds and buildings including the historical ones. The wine shop has more than just wine. Great place to browse but you'll definitely want to buy everything. The dining experience was top notch with exceptional tasting food and courteous, professional serving staff. The wine was phenomenal. A must winery to visit and explore.

Juanita Van Berkel

Fantastic!

Lisa Sharpe

We came here after a golf game looking for a decent meal. Instead we ended up having one of the best meals of our life. You just MUST have the chefs special 5 course meal choice with the paired wine!!!

Stephen Bieda

I have twice dined and twice wine toured at Vineland Estates Winery and had fabulous experiences both times. Finally my wife and I decided to join their Wine Club as we just love this place! The staff is fantastic and knowledgeable and the food is superb. We particularly enjoy the Semi-Dry Reisling 2010 & 2011 and the wine store has a great selection of pairing items. The stunningly rustic yet elegant architecture of the winery and the panoramic views of the vineyard, overlooking Lake Ontario are unmatched by any winery in Niagara in my opinion. Reserve an outdoor table next to the gorgeous tree and enjoy the breathtaking views at dusk. Highly recommend!

Dhaval Nanera (nanera)

Viwes Amazing, staff amazing and wine extra ordinary !!!

Desiree Alexandra Dunn

I have never personally been to this place BUT I did indulge myself in a few bottles of their 2012/2013 chardonnay. Although the wine itself was impeccable and enjoyed to the last drop, I need to get this cork experience out into the world. Now let me preface this by saying, I'm not fancy enough to have one of those bottle opening contraptions that look like a speculum on hand. I have a normal corkscrew bottle opener. After asking for help from other people and googling ways to get a cork out of a wine bottle, I finally made the decision to push the cork into the bottle. I understand the need to seal a bottle for freshness and to prevent any leakage of this liquid gold, but what I do not understand why you need to prevent the strength of Thor himself from getting a bottle of chardonnay open. It seemed a tad unnessicarry.

Raymonde Masson

My husband and I,went for dinner with our adult children and their spouses to celebrate our 40th anniversary. We are all so please with the service, these young servers pampered us with attention. The food ,tasty, great presentation.fine selections. Same with wines. Absolutely pleased!

Eddie YapSam

wine too gross

Julio Batres - Gavidia

The food was exceptional. I love the winter menu and prices! We tried their special chef selection and the winter prix fixe menu and found them to be of amazing taste and value. That said, the portions were big enough that we could have shared and still be satisfied by the end. The service was outstanding, they were very helpful, attentive and unobtrusive. Our wine glasses were magically always topped up. We cannot say enough about the view. One of the best spots to eat while watching the sunset. We will definitely be back.

Ken Rempel

Great wine for a good price.

Mario Bruno

Great winery.....great wine, atmosphere and staff

Jillene MacDonald

Beautiful winery with a gorgeous country backdrop. Staff were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our tastings. Looking forward to going back.

Andrea Boyko

We went to the restaurant at the winery after we did some wine touring around the area. The restaurant had a prix fixe menu. We paired our meals with glasses of their wines of which I had the Cabernet. It was full of complex notes. The service was impeccable and I would go again and do a wine tour in the future.

Dave Holmes

Awesome visit and wonderful wines. Did not eat there yet, but we will be back!

Todd Smeed

Our dining experience was just that, an Experience. We recently made reservations for our date night Fridays and we were not disappointed. Being the colder months, we shared the restaurant with only two other couples. The staff were extremely friendly, approachable, and not pretentious at all. We opted for the 5 course meal, which was like having your senses on a culinary rollercoaster.. We paired this with a glass of Elevation Cabernet, and finished with a cappuccino. My only regret was that we didn't get there earlier to enjoy the tasting room and see it in the daylight.

Phillip Valladolid

This place was very elegant! Had great memories with the fam,..From mother drinking too much wine to tasting duck meat for the first time. Definitely a perfect setting in the sunset hour.

freda so

Love the St. Urban Riesling

Marie S.

Amazing food and great wine list! Service is impeccable and the view over the vineyard is pretty cool! We went off season (November) and felt like we had the place to ourselves! Update: we went back over labour day weekend in 2017 and still delicious! Check out the pics below! Update: dined here again Oct long weekend 2020 and did not disappoint! Added additional pics.

Ryan

Extremely dissapointed with the quality of the food we ordered for Valentine's Day take out. No flavour, nothing special, and definately not worth almost $200.

Dave Holmes

Awesome visit and wonderful wines. Did not eat there yet, but we will be back!

Diana Mancuso

Not just a winery. Their beautiful shop is full of beautiful gift ideas and yummy goodies such as tapenades, chocolates, cheeses and crackers.

Les James

I rarely give 5 starts. Had a wedding event here. A fantastic location for a small - med gathering. Stayed at the guest house. Everything was awesome. Service 10/10. Atmosphere 10/10. Food 9/10.

Eduardo Araujo

I felt safe with my wife and daughter as staff was following the protocols by the book. Started the meal with amazing sourdough bread that came with seasoned ricotta and an olive tapenade. The appetizer had the most tender grilled calamari, perfectly cooked. Burger was also amazing and the smaller then average size was actually a good surprise. Dessert was ok and next time I'll skip the coffee. Great scenery.

Kristen Johnson

I took my sister to OPEN TABLE for dinner for her birthday a month ago, & the service was very slow. Our server did not pay us much attention to see if our food was ok, or if we needed anything else. We waited forever to order dessert, and to pay. We even tried waving a server down, only to be ignored. The food was very pricey for what we got, which was not much regarding the amount. We left hungry. My sister's vegetables consisted of a few small pieces of potato and one tiny carrot with the green end still on it. The dessert was $10 and it was also very tiny. There were no vegetarian offerings, making it difficult for my sister to place an order. We are not big eaters, nor heavy people, & left disappointed in the service & the quantity of food, considering that my sister's dish cost $30. We were very pissed off that they served Foie Gras, which is the over-sized liver of a duck which is force fed, which is animal abuse if you look it up online to see how you get Foie Gras. We wished we had gone to Kelsey's or East-side Mario's or something after it was all said and done. Will never go back.

Eric Michalski

Fantastic dinner. Small, very well executed menu. The view off the patio is hard to beat. The front of the house is a bit mechanical, but that is certainly to be expected given the area's seasonal nature. Definitely a must stop while in wine country.

Sabrina Tanaka

Absolutely beautiful location! Food and wine is very nice, and service is great. Highly recommend it!

Henri Zapora

Fantastic food, wine and scenery

Fernanda Palazzo

Awesome! Try the iced wine

Juan Merino

Nice place

S. M.

We just returned from France where we've been to several Michelin-starred restaurants. This one would shine among them! We took degustation menu and every dish was a discovery. Presentation, taste , ingredients match were impressive. Out of 5 wines late harvest was excellent, other whites were reasonably good, reds - not. Vineyard settings make it even better! So, out of 5 stars I give them SIX! Will definitely come back and recommend to friends. Compliments to chefs and owners!

Jennifer Miller

Fantastic winery with an amazing restaurant. Food is beautifully executed and they were attentive, knowledgeable and sensitive to food allergies. Best meal we've had in Canada. Highly recommended and be sure to pick up a bottle of Elevation Riesling- pick up a case- bright, citrusy with touches of honey. Perfect patio wine.

Ariyapala Gamage

It is a beautyful vine estate in canada. We can enjoy there eating grapes strobery.

Sharon Elle

A great wine tasting experience. Jeff was friendly and very knowledgeable about the wines. He was very humble.

Dave Cheng

Beautiful Patio. Quality food with wine pairing. Nice!

Jacqueline Farkas

Had a wine tasting at the estates with Scott and he was amazing! Very knowledgeable, funny and friendly - made our entire group feel comfortable right away. He recommended some wines for us to try which we have taken home and continue to enjoy!

Richard

Good job to the staff on professionalism, attentiveness and on making your clients feel safe during this pandemic. Worth the money, amazing view, and just as amazing food and wine. Being able to leave afterwards and wander through the Vineyard to watch the sun go down was very special. I would recommend this for a romantic date.

Francois Barnard

Lovely day in the patio. Amazing cheese board and great local Pino Grigio. We will be back!

Scott Breard

The gift shop would be enough to make the visit worthwhile alone... but the menu in the restaurant is incredible...great white wines as expected from a top Canadian winery!

JEFF WEISS

What an amazing lunch. Everything was well planned and organized in respect to the social distancing rules. We will not hesitate to go back again. Thanks guys .

Shea Family

Visited twice, once in May and today. The servers were different. The service in May was excellent, maybe because it wasn't busy and much cooler so doors were open for the ac to permeate. Returned today to a completely different experience. Hotter than hell on the patios and the service wasn't as great as in May. The Sirius satellite station was playing music with extremely inappropriate lyrics. Food was okay, only 3* today; dessert took 20 minutes to get to our table even though we ordered it in advance. However, the wine is delicious and the location is awesome!

jackie burke

Fabulous lunch! Stopped here on our magic winery bus tour! Great food. 3 courses for $45!

Var

One of the oldest wineries I the region. Much history and knowledge stored here. Tour was a treat.

Tingting Wen

Beautiful property and delicious Riesling !

Derek Polson

Vineland consistently delivers excellent food and wine in a stunning setting. I’ve never been dissapointed.

Brad Burns

The estate is beautiful. I enjoyed the food, but if I am going to drop 200 bucks for a lunch I expect good quality. The calamari came with a hair in it, and I became violently ill after my lunch here. Beware the steak tartare.

yog mumbai

Nice.I m from india.can I get lmo job over here.

christopher nalezinski

Great place. We became members!!!

Sinhyuk Oh

very good and awesome place.

Andy Shu

Delicious meals and beautiful landscapes of grape farm. Smells good for the wine!

Dennis Williams

Great place to visit if you are in the area. The scenic view when you first arrive is great, just situated above the vineyard areas so you can see the differenct vineyards. The service is great at the sampling area and Andre knows his stuff. The restaurant is top notch and I recommend going by for a bite to eat after a few wine samples. If you are looking for somewhere great to bring clients or a date night option this place should be on your list.

Karen Newington

Went in on a Monday in the late afternoon and did a fantastic well-involved tasting with a couple friends and a lovely gentleman named Bill. He was very welcoming and informative and had lots of great suggestions for us. The wines were delicious - well balanced, complex but very drinkable. The rose (Provence style!) and pinot noir were especially good and we left with a few bottles. If we weren't moving in a couple months we definitely would've gotten more. Looking forward to checking this place out again and hopefully fitting in a tour or dinner next time.

Andrew Chan

Really nice experience with them amazing food and service. Will comeback for sure

Helen Walker

Andy looked after us today.he was knowledgeable and super chill. The menu was great value ..chefs dessert to die for ..just a wonderful meal and wine pairing..best christmas gift this Year

Mélissa Gohier

John provided a professional yet friendly service. He had a good knowledge of the estates' wines and was able to suggests a flight that met our preferences. The view and the property were gorgeous.

Joachim Koch

A charming winery with a solid restaurant.

Robert Lo

Nice environment, but service definitely requires improvement!!

Mylène Garot

Kaylie was really amazing ! Nice and patient she explained everything about the beautiful wines she serves.

Derek Polson

Vineland consistently delivers excellent food and wine in a stunning setting. I’ve never been dissapointed.

Martin Hauck

Been twice, once for a gorgeous intimate wedding and a second time for dinner. Both wonderful experiences.

Claire Havlicek

A lovely surprise when Catalina did the tour for my boyfriend's family and I, and was able to answer and converse in spanish with them. And provide information during the wine tasting in spanish as well. It made their experience at the vineyard much more enjoyable for not having to translate english in their heads

HWMed Spa

I’ve heard many good reviews for Vineland Winery restaurant. The atmosphere and the Live music were fantastic. Food... well , the pricing of Michelin star restaurant However the quality not so much. I found is very weird the answer of our servant to my question “I’ve ordered scallops and I see only twi little ones in my plate and the rest is just fruits and vegetables” The answer was:” do you know how expensive they are that’s why you see only two of them “. I was Laughing for the rest of the dinner. Definitely overpriced for the quality of the food &service.

Luis María Barreiro

Noce people...! Wondeful service.... incredible yard....!!!

aud lauriers

Absolutely incredible food the atmosphere is amazing on the patio and the staff was very nice!

Kassya Murray

This place is so beautiful! I went to this Winery last week with my fiance and had a blast. We went there for a dinner and ended up having their 5 course meal of the day, with their wine pairing! By the end of the meal, we ended up buying 4/5 wines we had. So amazing, and the wine went perfectly with each dish. The staff here are very polite and the atmosphere is great. I would recommend sitting out side if you can, the view is beautiful. I will probably be in love with this place forever, I got engaged here!

Johnson Wong

Came for lunch and tasting, couldn't be happier with the experience. Service was attentive and made helpful wine recommendations. Food was outstanding and the highlight of the meal (and the Niagara region, to be honest). Duck Confit was crispy on the outside while meat was juicy and tender. Pickerel was pan-seared to perfection while not being greasy at all. The accompanying beef cheek pastrami didn't seem like an obvious pairing but complemented the fish very well. Kudos to Chef Justin for his creative cuisine and looking forward to our visit!

Devon Kivell

Excellent vineyard, the wine was exquisite.

Bruno Desrochers

This place not only craft amazing wines but their restaurant menu is amazing. Great local ingredients paired perfectly with wine. The patio renovation is a success, allowing you to enjoy it even when there is a light shower. The views are as good as the meal. The missing star is because, even if we mentioned this special meal was our wedding anniversary at time of the reservation (3 weeks prior) and that one of us was Gluten intolerant, the staff was not aware of either. A bit disappointing knowing that we are Vineland wine club master cellar.

Siobhan Mather

Enjoy every aspect of our evening. The food was absolutely beautiful and so delicious. Showstopper plating...the riesling was my favorite wine. Service and views were stunning...this is a great spot for a romantic evening.

Peter Schmitz

Great winery

Morning Light Photography

We absolutely love photographing weddings at Vineland Estates. They have an indoor space and an uncovered outdoor space, both are stunning locations and perfect for a small intimate wedding. When we tell you you will want to start coming here for every meal, we aren’t lying! Our clients and all of their guests are always blown away by their incredible food options and you seriously can’t go wrong with any of the choices. They have such amazing service, the staff is so friendly and attentive to your needs. They all work together to make sure everything is running smoothly and give you peace of mind that your day will be unforgettable. We can’t recommend them enough and are so excited for more weddings at this stunning location in the upcoming year!

Subhakar Orampati

Great place to visit & one of the best winery outlet in Vineland ????????????????????

Khyati Dattani

The place that made me fall in love with food all over again!! And I am not exaggerating when I say that. I have very choosy taste buds but everything they served on the table I could not criticize one single bit. I felt like the rat of ratatouille rediscovering flavor combinations in a complete different way. By the way.. does your chef take cooking lessons ????.. I can take those especially for your mushroom flour gnocchi.

David Holmes

Restaurant exceptional value. Delicious courses paired with wonderful wines in a beautiful setting served by thoughtful friendly wait staff.

Tony Fernandez

I feel robbed. The owners of this establishment should feel ashamed for robbing the wallets of hard working Canadians If you are interested in small portions that are over priced you found your place. The food was average and the staff was excellent. That's were my positive response ends. After paying a visit for lunch I quickly realized I'd be paying heavily with my wallet. I ordered the steak main. It was literally 4 slivers of steak on top of French fries. The charcuterie board was about 10 slices of cured meat. The bread was a dollar a slice. My question is how do these owners sleep at night.

Beautiful Beautiful

????Enchanting Date Night ????

Craig Adams

Amazing, beautiful place!

Dave Waddling

Very nice wines in a wonderful setting looking out to the lake. Lunch was a reasonable price and a great 3 course meal. Looking forward to coming back in the summer

Heather Urquhart

Amazing views and the food is 5 stars!

Fabio V

Excellent tour and wine tasting! And a memorable lunch menu!

Marzena K

Love this place! Great location and great wines! Definitively on my list to go back to.

Denis Gagnon

wonderful place !

Payman Jozi

If you are heading to Vineland restaurant you will experience a 7 star high class, great quality meal witch was created by George the chef and Steven the Sous chef. You are not gonna get any better food in Canada.

Christina G

Highly recommend making a reservation early in the week during the off season (think winter) at the restaurant and arriving earlier to take in a flight of wine in the shop. Their Riesling’s are divine and one of the best in the Niagara region. Make sure to enjoy the view while having a fabulous meal!

J Kirsh

Great staff. Tasty wine.

E Lainez

Loved the 5 course deal

Jordan Niagara

Love this winery! It's a hidden gem away from Niagara-On-The-Lake, but that what makes it feel so exclusive. The grounds are beautifully kept, the staff is super friendly and the wine is my fav. Definitely check this out. (PS - special thanks to employee Jonah for taking the time to use his personal car to boost my dead battery. Life-saver)

Holly Caz

Great staff, beautiful vineyards. Andre is great, so knowledgeable and passionate about wine and cheese. I learned so much and had a great time.

Miss Diaz

First time at Vineland Estates Winery for dinner and I have to say food was great and atmosphere and view even better, however service was a bit disappointed. I decided to order the trout and I asked for a different side about three times and our server said they couldn't just substitute it for anything else, but she never really asked the kitchen if they actually would or not. So that was okay I was not happy but I ended up sharing my boyfriends fries. Then we ordered dessert and I got surprised with an engagement decorated plate and a ring. We had a full meal with apps, entree, dessert and a nice bottle of wine. I just could not believe that they did not even offer us a glass of wine or even the dessert on the house to make our visit a little extra special. I would have loved to have my engagement party there since they hold wedding venues and such but if they could not even do anything extra, I simply would not want to go back for our party or anniversary. My fiance decided to call just to talk about our experience and all they said was "Thanks for the feedback". That was even more disappointing that they would not even invite us to come back or anything and thats why I decided to write a review so hopefully it gets to right person and they perhaps start doing something about it.

Great wines at reasonable prices. You MUST try the restaurant! The chef is simply amazing and never ceases to exceed expectations. Well designed fixed price menu with plenty of options that change seasonally. The wine pairings are always outstanding. This is truly a gem in the wine region. Go for lunch or dinner, you will not be disappointed.

OMG this is one of the MUST-GO wineries near Toronto! Pleaseee everybody go! The wines are great and the dining experience is amazing!

Food: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Service: ★ ★ ★ ★ Value: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ You get a 3-course meal only for $45 and they are delicious! Do not forget to order some bread. There is no free bread, so you gotta order them if you want but it is worth for ordering them because you will also get some salted butter spread, minced olives and pickled onions as well as olive oil and balsamic. They are very delicious and a good combination with the bread. Appetizer - Mussels & White fish Main - 18hrs braised beef & Grilled Salmon Dessert - Dark chocolate mousse & Pecan bread with ice cream topped. *Extras - Bread, 1/2 dozen of oyster, 2 glasses of wine I think $45/person is very reasonable price for this quality of the food. I did not want to post this review because this place will be crowded more and more eventually. Highly recommended.

Alicia Burgess

I love this winery. The restaurant is incredible and flexible with my food preferences. The staff is so nice. The wines are delicious. The wine club program is wonderful. I have stayed at the B&B and it's very nice with great views of the vines. I'm so impressed at all times with this winery.

Andrew B

Fantastic. The food was wonderful. The scenery, the views, and the overall esthetic were just great. I really enjoyed my time at Vineland Estates Winery even though I don't drink!

Aziyade Jackson

One of the best restaurants in Niagara wine route

Taylor Kupchanko

What a great winery! I went in specifically for the bubbly riesling, and were not disappointed. It's very charming inside and the staff are very knowledgeable. They are very accommodating with shipping as well. Will definitely be visiting again!

Leeza Belkina

Amazing winery, great selection of wine, specially 2012 reserve cab frank, cheese and snacks, friendly stuff, definitely be back!

Sharon Y

Nice place and good foods, enjoy our lunch there

We had lunch there July 7 th ,Rachel & other staff were excellent and knowledgeable food quality and presentation also excellent wine pairing was perfect. We went into the store after meal and bought 4 bottles. Of course we did a wine tasting also and again staff was friendly knowledgeable

Karen M

Delicious food. Lovely patio with an expansive and unobstructed view of the vineyards and Lake Ontario. Service isn’t rushed, however the waiter was slow in serving and recommending wine pairings. We had the cheese platter to share, the halibut, gnocchi and steak. Cheese platter was our favourite. Gardens are beautiful.

Paul Andrusiak

Amazing wine and food plus one of the most beautiful estates. Great for a celebration.

Gregg Cameron

Gorgeous property, very nice wines

Pam Love

Dinner was exceptionally good. Waiter was great. Hard to pick one dessert. Gelato was fantastic.

Corinne Araujo

Great service and fabulous wines :)

Melinda Timmins

Did a private tasting with Adam. He was knowledgable and friendly and we appreciated the advice on where to head next. Wine was also excellent. Thanks so much!

Donato Colangelo

Great food and very good service! Always a pleasure to dine there!

Colleen O'Hearn

Wonderful time. Steak was cooked perfectly. Service was excellent and attentive. Beautiful place.

Eric

My wife surprised me with a birthday trip to Vineland estates (before the pandemic) and I've been thinking about the next time we can visit this place ever since. It's a beautiful location and the meal was fantastic from entree to main (we had quail and fish and both were outstanding) to dessert. Also purchased a bottle of delicious vodka and Canadian icewind to go. A must visit if you're touring the region.

Michaela Reales

We love the food and the great service they offer here. This is a place to go especially if you wanna relax a little and want to be away from the city. Food is so good! We will definitely come back!

Gary Smith

We did not really stay but just made a quick stop off! A big shout out to Jane, who handled, a long standing concern I had, very promptly and professionally. Will definitely be back to Vineland. Pinot meunier is great???? Gary

Olie Navrotska

The service and the venue are great. The quality of ingredients was very good, but the food preparation was a bit of a hit and miss. Overall, not a bad restaurant at all, but the menu could be a bit more interesting and the preparation more intricate, given the caliber of this place.

Jen Popkey

Amazing meal, delicious wines, and a view to remember.

Alka Verma

The most beautiful winery so quaint and cool Went there for wine and lunch on our way to the Niagara falls This place is absolutely awesome beautiful scenic with some excellent wines Great 3 course meals The asparagus soup was the best All their shared appetizers are super awesome every one of them Ordered all four of them Not to forget the great patio seating with a great view Ordered the flank steak and Ricotta Tortellini for mains Food was really good paired with great wines Excellent desserts too Their wine shop is awesome too you could buy some of the best wines from there Also keeps some great cheese with interesting souvenirs An amazing awesome experience a must do on your way to the Niagara to enhance the Niagara experience

Sabrina Cheverie

Amazing wine. Great service.. Adam and Tommy where wonderful hostess in the tasting section..Definitely be back again.

Phil Hancock

Lunch,Great food and beautiful estate.

Brandon Stafford

Today I was in search for a decent NA Wine for my fiancee as she can't have alcohol anymore. I searched and searched and I landed at Vineland Estate, and met a wonderful woman Taylor. I told her what and why I was looking for the NA Wine, and she was so helpful. She went above and beyond and I am thankful. This is a beautiful winery with great wines and even better people.

Judith Li

Amazing place. Best salmon I have ever had in my life. I'll definitely come back again soon.

David Hills

The wine and gift shop is amazing with helpful and friendly staff.

veronika chan

all the food was beautifully plated and the taste did not disappoint. very nice and amazing servers. would definitely come here again, great place to come during the summer time and wine season especially in the outdoor patio with the wonderful view! we had the sourdough bread and charcuterie board to share, the tomato coconut soup and the heirloom beet salad to start, the mushroom flour gnocchi as an entrée, and vanilla gelato to end the delicious lunch as a dessert.

Kevin Etkins

Absolutely amazing. Had a great time during the wine tasting, the ambiance couldn't have been better. The staff is very knowledgeable. We timed it perfectly before heading to the restaurant. There were no details missed, the food was perfect. This was our 2nd time and I'm certain this will be an annual event, so glad we found this place.

Nathan Dahms

One of my favorites in the area, staff was very knowledgeable and friendly.

George RAHAL

Great wine! Great food!

Daintry Klein

Enjoyed a beautiful evening on the patio. Food and views were exquisite. The wine we ordered was initially poured and then no one ever returned to add wine to our glasses. We self served til the bottle was turned upside down. The several courses of food were served by the team but we were never offered more wine. Enjoyed dessert, coffee but very sad we didn't get to enjoy more wine at the winery. So disappointing.

Amazing Lunch

Mansour n Elchammaa

Very rare to combine the view and the taste in one heaven.. My first visit was 34 years ago..thank you for maintain the top ranks.

Randy Walsh

Our wine tour and wine tasting for my sister’s bachelorette party with Mark was amazing. Beautiful environment, yummy chocolate,cheese and jelly and amazing wine! We had a blast!

Terra-lee Kramer

We recently enjoyed a tasting and then dinner at the restaurant. The tasting went really well. The selection was catered to a ladies night out and the person doing the tasting had a great sense of flavors and humor! Everyone made a purchase. The food at the restaurant was delicious with everyone scraping their plates clean! It was a lovely evening and very cozy, beautiful atmosphere.

Heather Lister

Everything about this place felt magical, comfortable and serene. We did the tasting first so that we knew what we wanted to order for lunch. We sat on the patio, its BEAUTIFUL. Service was awesome, thank you Matt! Lunch was spectacular, each dish had so much flavour and the presentation was beautiful. Only 40 minutes from Hamilton, a nice drive along the back roads, no highway. Will be back for sure!!!

Mark van Overdijk

I'm a big fan of Vineland Estates! Always had great experiences. Staff is incredible! Everyone who works there loves to work there. And it shows. Can't say enough about the place!

Dana Ménard

Delicious as always. Our only complaint is that the a la carte menu was not available while they were doing their "Winter Warmer" promotion and it wasn't clear on the website that you could only do either the 3-course Winter Warmer or the 5-course tasting menu. Still a wonderful experience.

Jeroen Luigjes

(Translated) Delicious wines, especially try the Icewine. Nice tour including tasting in about 1 - 1.5 hours. John was great! Have also dined here: chic, top service, beautiful location, good food! (Original) Heerlijke wijnen, probeer vooral ook de Icewine. Leuke rondleiding inclusief proeverij in ongeveer 1 - 1,5 uur tijd. John was great! Hebben hier ook gedineerd: chic, top bediening, mooie locatie, goed eten!

Julian Ashworth

I would say that one star is a overstatement for this restaurant, the service was just as distasteful as the duck they served me half cooked. This place shouldn’t be open.

William Palmer

Beautiful spot for smaller style wedding

Kajahni Tharmarajan

One of the best dining experiences we ever had! Delicious and flavourful meal with great service and scenic views of the vineyard.

Jason West

My wife and I went here for our anniversary lunch and went for the set menu. Ever dish was fabulous with artsy creativity and full of flavour. The sauces, fruits and vegetables molded so well together. One of the best places to have lunch in Niagara with a beautiful back drop. We will return for sure.

Murray Downie

Fabulous food. Service was excellent. All the Covid protocols are in place so I felt very safe dining there.

Amber Jones

Had an incredible evening here. The chef took care of all of my dietary restrictions (and I have a lot of them)and created an amazing meal for me. Thank you!!

Gretchen Makowski

Jonah was excellent and very helpful and knowledgeable with our tasting. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and as a result left with quite a few bottles.

Daniel Roy

Went to the Vineland Estates Winery restaurant, After 10 minutes nobody came to see us to say welcome, bring water and tell us they gone come to take care of us. Event if the pass close to our table! Thanks to them we discover a better place the Terrace of Red Stone Winery We got our plate in 10 minutes and food + service were great !!

Sunil Bhalla

Beautiful property, delicious wine and gorgeous food preparation Go quickly!

E B

Delicious food. Amazing wine. My favourite winery in the Niagara region. They have a great staff. Try their Rieslings and Baco Noir!!

Hannah Kuebler

Fantastic customer service! Helped me acquire a delicious wine for an event at my home. Couldn't have asked for better and quicker responses! Thank you!

Barb Boothe

Great food, wine & service...and a beautiful spot. Good job on the Covid precautions, too.

Anita C

Accidental Tourist. Came for a hike, stayed for the winery experience. Turned into an amazing adventure. Did a wine tasting (a flight) in the wine bar/ shop. Served by a really interesting young man who studied art direction at film school and hopes to get into the industry. Ended up in the world class restaurant where I had a delectable asparagus mousse with white truffle oil, smoked almonds and pancetta. My favourite part of the meal, in fact. As a main, my chuck flat with cheddar pierogi and celeriac remoulade was excellent, though the pieróg tasted commercial to this Polish woman who makes her own from scratch. Garnish was beyond fantastic. First time I've had radish grass, a fancy name for daikon radish sprouts. Delish. And to finish, a very tasty rhubarb panna cotta. Burnt orange curd that had hints of mango. Combined with the spearmint garnish a different taste sensation. Ginny rhubarb sorbet - excellent. Panna cotta foundation well executed. Definitely recommend.

Jenn B

A late review based on a stellar summer lunch! Came here in August with a friend and enjoyed an incredible lunch on the patio. The prix fixe value is incredible! Service was excellent and Covid protocols were followed. We also bought a couple of items from the wine shop. The only small complaint was that the music was a little loud and seemed "off" for the environment (was playing top 40 pop songs). Being in Niagara for a couple of days, this was my favourite meal.

Michael Seabrooke

Lovely place for the ambience and terrific wine and food as well. A lovely place to stop in or spend some time

ze vicker

Beautiful location with view of lake, excellent wines and couldn't stop talking about how tasty everything from the kitchen was.

Candy Adams

An attentive staff serving a wonderful meal and wine pairing. So glad some of the dining restrictions have been lifted so we could enjoy this lovely location. Glad to be back to our favourite restaurant.

sharmilan chandrakumar

My wife and I went for lunch here after some wine tastings. The $45 appetizer , main, and dessert was well worth the price. I ordered the grilled pork belly, duck confit, and vanilla sponge. the wife ordered 5 spice calamari , steak. Food was amazing and really good quality. We topped it of with cappuccino and even that was superb. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. We will definitely be visiting again.

Cherry C

Amazing. I come here every summer. The food is amazing, service is wonderful, view is top notch. You wouldn’t get this view at any other winery in the niagara area. Fixed price lunch menu is affordable and delicious. Highly recommend!

Maximum_8 *

great service great food but expensive

Katia S

Terrible experience. The service in the restaurant is absolutely rude. Clarissa who seated us had such an attitude and said openly that we shouldn’t be bringing kids as they don’t drink and the restaurant will not make enough money from our table! I’ve never heard such idiotic spoken out loud. Food is mediocre at best and the place is not well managed and snobby. Tones of places around and they don’t waist your time

Daevon Clarke

Amazing! Natasha was super! Learned so much from her, even signed up for the wine club... it feels great to be a member! The restaurant also serves amazing food! You have to put this on a bucket list.

Michal Hanzalik

Wonderful place and great wine :)

Peter

Excellent! This is one of the best restaurants! The decor is nice, but the food is absolutely amazing. And if you're here for the wine tasting, do yourself a favor and hit up the restaurant right after. You won't regret it. This place features fine dining dishes at not-fine-dining prices

Katie Michener

The food was just incredible. Beautiful presentation and an explosion of flavours. We got the mussels and white fish as appetizers and beef chuck and braised rabbit as the main courses. Every bite was amazing. The wine was delicious too, of course.

Victoria Matthews

Had a fantastic lunch with wine pairings on the patio. And of course brought home my favorites.

We visited during Wrapped up in the valley. Lovely taste of a sandwich (very small) nice wine. Beautiful setting for a winery . will go again. we are renting the carriage house.Nice staff.

Rick Smeding

Great tasting menu. Wonderful chef. Wonderful ambience in a great setting. Loved it.

Alexis Lakey

Ambience and staff ... 5 stars. Vegan options, 2 stars.

Great customer service and overall pleasant meal with nice wine pairings.

Kevin Stevens

Food atmosphere and service was great. Very limited menu but nice options. Would go back.

Allan Carr

My favorite red wine Bacon Noir was out of stock, so sad will have to wait till the next harvest. Enjoyed the tasting just the same. Worth the trip.

P M

An amazing experience

akanksha

The best food Ive had. Hands down amazing. I am vegetarian and the chef was able to accommodate and prepare the most delicious pasta with a wonderful creamy sauce that I will definitely be coming back for. The creme brulee and the raspberry sorbet for dessert was simply divine. The portions are perfect all the ingredients are fresh. Cant say enough good things about this place

gary wain

Outstanding dinner, will be back again ?!

Cheryl Abel

Love this place. Food is outstanding and wine always great,

Gwen Allingham

Our second stop with Crush Wine tours. Beautiful Winery. Great wines had a hard time agreeing with my husband on which ones to buy. Jane was our wine server, she was amazing, she took the time to teach us a bit about wine. She included a special treat as it was our 25th wedding anniversary. Thank you for the wonderful experience. Now just need to find out where my friend sells her Lindsay Goat cheese in Ottawa.

Chris Bentley

Amazing 3 course lunch!! I had the green lettuce salad, duck confit, and Panna Cotta. All came with a lovely wine pairing.

Bruce Odell

A group of 4 of us experienced the snowshoeing/wine tasting event and we absolutely loved it! The wine was fabulous and the guidance and expertise from Ben and Jarred only added to the great time we had. Highly recommend and will do definitely do this again

Carolin Tolkamp

Fantastic experience. Friendly knowledgeable staff.

Douglas Parra

Great staff, excellent service and food was exquisite!!!!!!!

Kamila Danczuk

PERFECT LOCATION FOR A SMALLER WEDDING! My husband and I checked out all the wineries and restaurants, but the Carriage House just stole our hearts. It was a small 35 person wedding that felt like the event of a lifetime. Love that it is a separate building where you can truly create anything you want. Diane and the day of wedding team were nothing short of amazing. So flexible, easy going and understanding. We wanted a stress free evening and it couldn't have gone better. I was worried cause we were running late, but I re assured that everything would go at our desired pace. Any vision we had, they made it come true. Such an excellent location for lots of outdoor photos, we just couldn't get enough! THANK YOU CARRIAGE HOUSE AND VINELAND ESTATES for making our wedding day timeless and unforgettable! PS we cannot wait to come for dinner every year on our anniversary at their restaurant : )

Maria Carrescia

We had lots to celebrate! It was our first time out, since lockdowns had lifted! Wonderful dining experience here! We enjoyed dinner on the patio with breathtaking, beautiful views of the vineyard. Our server and the service was excellent! I had the Halibut from the dinner menu with Pinot Grigio wine. It was the best I have ever had! My husband had the Steak, (medium). I sampled it and it was so juicy and tender. For dessert, we shared the White Chocolate Cheesecake and had a Cappuccino. I highly recommend this place for an elegant night out. It’s fine dining at it’s best in wine country with beautiful views!

D Pino

Attended wine tasting seminars offered for wine club members. Excellent experience. Great wines and pairings. Excellent wines ...outstanding Elevation Reisling

Kelven Durbin

Amazing lunch and vineyard views

Shared a superb lunch yesterday with my good friend David Hulley. The chef's creative with the wine pairing is second to none. Come for the food and take your time..soak in this special place.

Anthony Guevarra

The wine shop staff is amazing. They were so helpful.

Renee Burrows

Amazing food and great view. Definitely try the sample wines so you know what to buy!!!!

Jane Gadsby

Fabulous products and service

Joy

David the director was amazing! Knowledgeable and super professional!!!

Scott Payette

My perennial favourite winery for overall experience, price point, and most importantly taste. I also love the restaurants fall and winter menus but have never been in the spring and summer.

Marcella Rogers

Absolutely wonderful

K&I Iggulden

What a wonderful eatery...a positive experience from the food to the service and of course the venue. The presentation and delicious meal options speaks volumes for the chef and the staff. The scenery of rolling vineyards while eating invokes a feeling of serenity. I will definitely return!

Al

Excellent Wine Tasting! Fair portions it showed in the $180.00 in wine we bought. Wonderful Host! Recommended during this time of Covid 19.

Sarah Feddema

Great tasting wines! The restaurant always impresses me with their creative play on food!

Claudia M

I had the pleasure of having lunch here on Saturday November 7th as part of a girls weekend wine tour. From beginning to end they exceeded our expectations. The service, food and of course the wine were outstanding. Thank you for making it a special birthday weekend.

Jay Frank

My wife, a dear friend, and I stopped by Vineland Estates on our drive from Niagara to Stratford. It turned out to be a highlight of a thoroughly enjoyable vacation. The staff is superb, the restaurant exceptional, and the wine extremely good. Be sure to taste the Pinot Meunier.

Sid Tarek

All my clients had exceptional experience at this winery! Environment, food, service and of course the fine wines!????

Wayne Barker

Always fantastic here, no matter what we go for.

Sepehr Tehrani

Everything there is classic, nothing modern. Their wines are just ok.

Gabriel

Went yesterday, visited the shop and the restaurant, It was really good experience, they have a great staff on both places and the food was really good, would definitely go there again

Ashley Woodsford

We got married in the carriage house in September of 2017. The food was absolutely incredible. The service was terrific and the venue was just gorgeous. Diane was very attentive and a wonderful professional contact for our big day. Thanks for making it the best day of our lives! Ashley and Mat Woodsford

Joanne Quintal

We chose the chefs menu which was absolutely amazing! The cab sauv reserve 2015 is also highly recommended.

Eric Buckley

High end winery restaurant. Great food and great service

Christina G

Highly recommend making a reservation early in the week during the off season (think winter) at the restaurant and arriving earlier to take in a flight of wine in the shop. Their Riesling’s are divine and one of the best in the Niagara region. Make sure to enjoy the view while having a fabulous meal!

Aida K

Really amazing food and service here - we came for a special occasion with my family and we’re all so impressed - can’t wait to come back here sometime soon

Katrina Francisco

One of our favourite wineries in the niagara region. Great wines and the property is gorgeous! They have amazing service!

John Miller

Great staff, property and products.

Alexandr Maxymenko

(Translated) Very nice atmosphere, some wines were very decent! I recommend steak and corn soup! (Original) Очень приятная атмосфера, некоторые вина были очень достойные! Рекомендую стейк и суп из кукурузы!

Gail Smith

Wine club is the best!

jeff zylstra

I took my guys and their wives here for my company Christmas party. The food was excellent, but the service was even better. Never had more considerate waitresses. Would highly recommend.. Jeff zylstra, job electric.

Chris Gonsalves

One of the most relaxed, down-to-earth, knowledgeable wineries we have been to. Definitely expect us there again for the restaurant and another tasting :)

S P

Such a beautiful estate. I went here for dinner, the quality was second to none. The limited menu offered plenty of options and delicious food. Out of the entire menu they were able to offer me almost everything gluten free with the exception of two dishes. The wine was delicious, service wonderful and outstanding scenery. #glutenfree #gf #localguides

JON WILLIAMS

My wife and I visited the restaurant on Valentines day 2018. This was after hearing so many wonderful reviews. We shared the charcuterie board. This is the first one I have had without any cheese. That would be ok except every meat was entirely bland, bar one which was nice and spicy. They had some slices of duck, which just tasted truly awful. My wife had the pasta for main which was the size of an appetizer, though to be fair the waitress did warn us of this ahead of time. She said it was delicious. I ordered the duck. I will always order duck when available as its my favorite. Everyone knows that duck is fatty and that the fat needs to be crispy and will therefore be delicious. This duck fat was not crispy. Which if you eat duck, you will know its then slimy and disgusting. Further to this it had very little sauce to go with it so was just an all round bad experience. I ordered the churro valentines special for desert. I loves churros! It was a 2 inch piece of delicious churro with two small blobs of chocolate ice cream.... How depressing. The wine was pretty good and service was excellent. Wont be going back. I highly recommend a visit to the Good Earth or the Inn on the Twenty instead!

Robin Zavitz

Our favourite winery in Niagara

Christian Laniel

Amazing restaurant for fine dining. Food is wonderful. My wife and I went last year for dinner, we came back with friends for lunch for Thanksgiving. Every item on the menu was rated 5 stars by all. Superb view, nice walk around the property.

Milan Plentai

First class Winery

David Senik

Knowledgable friendly staff.

Mélodie THOREAU

Don't go there at 5:58pm. They will let you going inside the shop, explaining you that they are closing SOON ! Some of the waiters will approach you while you try to purchase a bottle of wine, that you can not buy cheese at all as the counter is closed. Well, in 3 minutes, they will explain you 5 times, from 4 different persons that they are closing and you have to hurry up. Maybe you won't have the same experience at 8am. At the end, we let the bottle on the counter, and we went spending $100 in another winery. I've been doing that job, as a waiter. There is an elegant way to explain to clients that you are closing. Hopefully, you will learn very soon the basics of a sales job.

Josée Martin

(Translated) Beautiful welcome and beautiful place (Original) Bel accueil et bel endroit

Angelo Amoia

The food and atmosphere were great, Good price on food and wine. Will definitely comeback here again.

Lana Socci

IT WAS A LUNAR ECLIPSE EVENING. We had dinner on the patio, surrounded by red-black and orange sky, smell of warm grapes and a scent of first autumn touched leaves. It felt like another planet. May be it was ? Chef's creation was out of this world. Wine... i had to take 6 more bottles home. Some people have take out food, i have a take out wine. My British guest was more than impressed.

Nav Krish

The steep price in food and service did not match the quality or proportions of what was served. An unwary patron may feel taken advantage of.

Todd Hannah

Atmosphere and food are incredible!

S VIC

I love this place.

Dave McCaig

A favourite spot! Great Niagara wines, scenic vineyard and fantastic dining -- or popping by for a cheese board in the afternoon.

K C

Booked through Lifeexperience which included wine pairing. Set menu by the restaurant was Lamb which one of us didn't like. Next choice was Trout, which again is a specific taste. We were then forced by the Chef to both have Chicken. Not able to have a choice. Food was good despite the restriction imposed by the Chef. Just an average experience.

Tara Upshaw

Beautiful patio with breathtaking scenery. Had artisan cheese and charcuterie board. Delicious and an excellent Gamay Noir!

Isaac Sewell

We were at the restaurant today and the service and the food was amazing. We have one complaint though. With this heat we asked to eat inside on the phone when making the reservations they said sure no problem. Much to our surprise when we got there, there was no air conditioning on when it was 40 degrees out. My wife needs to stay cool because she has MS. I guess the simple solution would have been not to stay. I just wanted to let you know that it was too hot inside the restaurant. We will specifically ask from now on if the air conditioning is on before coming to the restaurant. Thanks

David McCormick

We had lunch at Vineland twice in summer 2020, and many times in previous years. Food is always excellent and good value for the three course table d'hote menu. Patio atmosphere is lovely. No question we'll return.

O D

The food was amazing! And the service was phenomenal!

Sue Church

We had a very nice time there. It was the first winery in our vacation - what a great start.

Alan Contreras

Awesome service and great variety of house wines. They also sell cheese, ham, cookies and similar products.

Sandi Evans

An exceptional dinner and the chef went out of his way to make sure my 11 year old son had a spectacular dinner

A K

The food is quite extraordinary here, presentation is flawless and beautiful constructed. the quality is hard to beat and you can taste it with every bite. service was however not up to standard although it was bearable. The beautiful environment and vibe makes this place.

Algernon Au

Great menu and food here. Was able to accommodate wheelchair in restaurant

D C

Amazing! The wine is delicious, but the staff are what will keep you coming back!

J L

Blew my mind. Too good for words. Going back.

Amanda

Went here for a wedding . Was simple and beautiful. All 3 courses were good. However there was constant firing of guns surrounding us .... must be surrounded by gun ranges ? Got used to it after a while but felt jumpy at first. They have a bed and breakfast available on the property but i assume would need to be booked a while in advance to ensure you get the dates you want .

Deb Maheu

Amazing view of the vineyards and Lake Ontario. Service was excellent and the food was fabulous! The explosions of tastes just melted in your mouth and the wine was paired perfectly! I can’t say enough about this place that we keep going.

Paul Milan

Fantastic

Patricia Fung-A-Ling

As much as I have always loved Vineland Estates and their wines, I love their winery even more after dealing with David Holly in customer service. Speaking with him was delightful and he dealt with my concern in a professional and courteous manner. Thank you David, for such a great experience. The level of service you provided was first-rate! Trish

Mike G

I booked restaurant 2 days in advance for 7:15pm for dinner. We arrived on time from Toronto. When we arrived the lady at front desk told us that we had to wait 45 min - an hour and its not even guaranteed that we got a table. it is a great place with great kitchen but their reservation process is terrible. If you don't want to waste your time by waiting with no guarantee then look for another place. there are so many good restaurants in Niagara region.

First of all, finding the venue for our wedding was so important. It will set the tone for the entire event and Vineland Estates Winery definitely gave us that whimsical and magical feeling. It's straight out of a fairy tale with lush green vineyards that stretch as far as your eyes can see, beautiful sunset over the horizon, and trees and grasses that sway with the wind blowing. Very serene, calm, and away from the hustle and bustle of the city. When we first met with Diane (Director of Hospitality) at Vineland Estates Winery, we were immediately drawn to her peaceful aura. She was smiling a lot and very calm. Most of all she was genuine. On our drive to Vineland, we fell in love right away as soon as our car drove past the long stretch road leading to the carriage house. As soon as we stepped into the carriage house and the patio right beside it, we knew that this will be the magical place where we say "I do". Right away we booked this venue back in Fall 2017, less than a year before our big day. We must say that Vineland Estates Winery is a PERFECT venue for a small intimate and romantic wedding. Diane made sure that she got all the small details they needed for our wedding. She was very accommodating and ensured that my husband and I were happy with everything. She even accommodated us to set up the day before to ensure that we had enough time for set up. The FOOD was AMAZING!!! We were fortunate to try the food at their restaurant and their wines at the shop prior to our wedding date, and we must say the FOOD was amazingly delicious. It definitely matched the beautiful scenery of the venue. Our guests loved the food and they have nothing but positive feedbacks..."so delicious", "so tasty", and "so beautifully presented". The beef, chicken and salmon were all amazing. The salad was just divine and so fresh, and the dessert - Lindt Chocolate Lava Cake - WoW!!! The SERVICE was excellent throughout the entire day. No wineglass was left empty and everyone was so kind and so hospitable. Our favourite part was when one of the waitress followed us during our photo session after the wedding to make sure that we get to eat and at least try the hors d'oeuvres. The pork belly and the fresh oysters were such a a big hit! Vineland Estates Winery was reasonably priced for our wedding and the memories we had there will be cherished in the years to come. Diane, our wedding was perfect, thanks to your amazing staff and your beautiful venue and delicious food. We will definitely be back again. Love Mike & Kim. PS Thanks for meeting with us before we walked down the aisle and see each other for the first time. It brought back memories when we first met almost a year ago. You're so genuine and we felt your warm regards and happiness for us. Also, our beloved dog, Miko, also says "Hi!"

We each had a delicious meal, I had pork tenderloin, My wife had Ontario trout, My sister-in-law had the duck, Everything was scrumptious, It's quite pricey but worth it too,

We had lunch there for my hubby's birthday a three course meal and wine pairing. Amazing food. Beautiful scenery. Wonderful staff. Just a gorgeous building. Will go back. We loved it. One of the best wineries in the region.

Gorgeous picturesque winery. The tasting was well worth the $. Large glasses and fantastic entertaining service (I wish I could recall the name of our server..she was fabulous and hilarious!). Will definitely be back and recommend to others!

A place for white wine lovers. Great service and great summer wines. Location is beautiful even to just sit outside and enjoy the scenery on there patio restaurant.

An amazing experience with great food, the only thing was missing was the background music...

Trudy Shore

Such a nice venue. And a delicious meal. Enjoyed the wine. Tried the riesling, chardonnay, rosé, cab-merlot and vidal. A very enjoyable evening overall.

We arrived and found a nice winery. Pretty grounds, I side well played out. Very knowledgeable and helpful thoughtful staff. Guided us through the selections,price point is excellent.

Restaurant Review: Beautiful View and Service. Salmon is amazing. Braised Rabbit was horrible. I recommend just avoid the mediocre Pasta disguised as Braised Rabbit. Not even close, completely missed the mark. Great wine selection though. I would still return even though the Rabbit was a bait and switch. Be aware Gun Shots go off every 5 minutes but you honestly get used to it. Like fireworks.

I’ve been to NOTL and Beamsville more than once. I have never felt more unwelcome at at winery. We waited to be greeted and then met with disdain. When asked if a tasting was available for 6, the gentleman asked if we were OK with a $20 tasting fee and ONLY 3 samples. This was asked twice when we agreed, only for him to state that he will have to ‘ check with the manager’ if 6 patrons was ok as they typically only accept 4. We were fine with waiting, never an Issue as we didn’t have a reservation, but the tone and disrespect and condescending and patronizing staff. We had had been to multiple wineries in the region over 3 days, but this winery was the only exception and the worst experience I’ve had in the region. If I could do a no star review I’d choose this option.

Amazing and beautiful place.

First visit today & won't be the last! I ordered the Ricotta Gnocchi for lunch and it was AMAZING. I wish i took a picture because even the display was fantastic. Service was quick with friendly staff. The grounds are lovely and the wine is delicious! Would highly recommend.

John Kenn

Absolutely superb! One of the best culinary experiences in Niagara. We tried the 5 course chefs tasting. Nothing short of perfection.

This review pertains to my most current visit only. Hooked up with friends to visit the shop as I have been a strong supporter of this winery both at my job (lcbo) and personally for many years. On this day, October 18, I had selected several bottles to purchase. I noticed a Vidal I had never had there before. I was prepared to purchase a bottle, possibly 2, but thought, perhaps I'll see if I can get a quick sip before I buy. Spoke to the young guy at the tasting bar at told him what I was up to (this was 4:45, 20 minutes prior to close). I was promptly told, no, you cannot get a taste or a sip, but you can buy a glass. I had attended numerous smaller wineries in the region this day, and did not encounter anything like this. Perhaps this this is what happens when you get too big, too fat. Smart customer service is replaced by policy and corporate procedures. I returned my bottles to the shelves, made no purchase and quietly left. Pretty ticked off, not sure I'll return.

Great food! Great service!

Lindsay Bryan

Great wines, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and a first-class restaurant.

SO disappointed! Vineland used to be our go to restaurant at beamsville, but they just jacked up their prices by 43%!! Without having too much of a difference to the menu. While we booked a table a few weeks back when covid reopened, with this unpleasing menu change, we are just going to cancel. With how valuable each outing is nowadays with our child, we really don't want to waste our quota on any questionable experiences! For those who have opentable, go check out the latest one star review on their new menu. If you are a steak lover, it really didn't sound nice....

Lorna Zilic

Amazing dinner, we chose the chiefs choice menu. It was worth every bite.

Pamela Woodburn

Just finished the 5 course meal with wine pairing.. amazing!

Bev Craigie

Congrats. Fantastic. Went for lunch on the patio sun june 13th. Started with the charcuterie board of meats, patie, pickled veggies. The tastes were excellent. Had the asparagus, mushrooms butter soap. Bravo. Then had the salad. The dressing was amazing. Rebecca went above and beyond when my ice in my long Island ice tea melted she brought me more in a glass with a spoon, without me asking. Very pleasant service. Great view. You see the vineyards and lake ontario in the distance. Lovely afternoon.

Peter Schatz

Great wine tour and tastigs
