Did the fixed price menu. Food was amazing, service could not have been more attentive. Would have liked a few more appetizer and dinner options but would highly recommend Winvian for a special evening.

It was our first time visiting. Excellent service, ambience, delicious food. Caesar salad was large enough for 2 of us to share. It was filled with fresh herbs, crisp,lettuce and tasty dressing. Burger was huge, cooked exactly as requested. Ricotta ravioli were light, refreshing in sage brown butter sauce. We’re still thinking about the mousse with poached pineapple dessert. Can’t wait to return,

... I am a chef...proud, dedicated 40yrs.
Hospitality is and was the mission.
A+ambiance, staff, OUTSTANDING
Ok...for me this is very hard ...but truth be told..if truly the recognized Hospitality venue that you truly are. NO question, your premises ...beautiful, just beautiful.
Now let's talk Ceasars Salad...few visible garnishes buried under Frisbee and romaine, half Hazard display...DISAPPOINTING...uou are talented enough...do better
Cheese course display not representing your delicious cuisine.
A...SLATE DRIES OUT CHEESE.
B.THE CHEESE SUCKED...cheddar was dry, hard..check it out ..the olives had pits, think about the guests experience with said olives...flavorell and boring.
Honey.wax combo SUCKED, lol..chewing a way laced everything bites...bad idea...get back to basics..focus on the cheese .. not the foofoo jellies, the cheese is the star if the show...
I know, I'm sorry..lastly...feeding people is an honor...whether a tavern, bar,cafe, or 5 star resort...cook with you soul, your guts,,,your heart will follow.
God bless, God speed

Classic old New England style with exclusive vibe. Lovely grounds and a peaceful setting. The Tavern had a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. We enjoyed eating in the sunny solarium watching nature and seeing the chef run out to the garden to pick an herb or such for a plate he was preparing. Doesn’t get fresher than that!

Made a reservation for Saturday afternoon for a table of 3 on our way to a Norfolk concert. We drove an hour out of our way to stop for lunch and I specifically requested an outdoor table because last time we enjoyed sitting in the beautiful garden near the stream. We arrived at 12:45 and literally not one person was seated outside so they sat us inside. I inquired with the female maître d about the 4 top set for 3 on the patio and mentioned we requested a table outdoors. I was told it was reserved for someone else. She came back and offered to seat us at a table for 2 on the patio - again, there were 3 of us and literally not one person sitting outside, every table was open. We didn’t want to argue so we remained at our table inside. One hour later, still nobody seated outside and a single man arrived and was seated at the preset 3 top that we were told was reserved. He dined by himself at the 4 top that was preset for 3 - the table we requested. What is the purpose of a reservation if your reservation is completely disregarded? It ruined or experience. I will say that food is always delicious - though a note, the bolognese claims to be served with “hand rolled pasta” and is absolutely not! It’s dried pasta, which is served perfectly al dente.
