During a recent trip (this past week), I brought friends from out of town to John Ash - the restaurant inside Vintners Inn. We chose a bottle of wine we wanted to enjoy with dinner and shared the selection with our server. Sometime had passed, and we thought perhaps they no longer had the bottle in inventory as they were taking a while. When our server returned with the bottle, he shared with us that the Sommelier had pulled him aside as they noticed an "error in the listing price of the bottle" and that he had been sent back to our table to "advise us that an adjustment had already been made to the price". The bottle we selected, which was listed at $65, had now become $265. The Sommelier had even gone as far to change the listing price on the digital tablet menu BEFORE sending the waiter spoke with us. Super tacky. We shared that while it was unfortunate to see an error had been made on their side, they advertised the price to us and we felt very strongly that the original price should be honored, period. We past on the bottle and told the waiter we really thought the whole approach was awful. He apologized and we tried to move on. But, what really rubbed me wrong was that not at one point during the dinner did any manager appear to even offer an apology, or address the error. They sent the waiter to apologize for them. The entire interaction was rather raw - ...'this is the new price he set and shared you can take it or leave it.' The wine was a Chev Pinot Noir by Michael Browne that sells for $85 from the winery. Through wholesale, the restaurant probably got it even cheaper. Maybe $65? To be asked to pay $265 for an $85 bottle on the heels of the error was in poor taste, and not in keeping with the reputation of what the restaurant used to be. After we left the restaurant, I actually sent an email to the hotel manager, and as of this writing, NO ONE FROM JOHN ASH OR VINTNERS has replied. I am not quite sure if I will ever want to return again, let alone rexommend it. The whole exchange was off-putting. I understand that restaurants have mark ups.... a 400% markup is robbery. To be honest with the yelp community you are better off driving by John Ash and finding a Starks restaurant, which is a few exits away. Each one of their locations has amazing curated wine lists, and they won't try to rob you over the markup. Don't get me wrong, there will be a markup... but $40 mark up as opposed to $200, seems more in line.

Fine dining - nope! Fine atmosphere and pricey - yes Food was below par - calamari was soggy, prolly left under the heat lamp. Fine yellow tail - looked like a joke, tasted stale and stringy. Salad - disappointing, drenched in dressing. The food quality was mediocre at best, and that's me being generous. The owners and chef need to look up the phrase 'complex flavors'. Save yourself the money unless you can expense it. Service Dine in Price per person $100+ Food: 2 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

We decided to try this place for a fancy night out instead of the places we normally go (Spinster Sisters, Bird in the Bottle, etc). We were very underwhelmed. The pros were the ambience on the patio is excellent with the views of the vineyard and the plants. They also had a excellent French sparkling wine for a good price and the sangria was great. The service was impossibly slow through no fault of the waiter. Seemed there was a problem with the bussers and the kitchen. We got the mushroom polenta and conchiglioni with scallops. The food was not at the level that the cost demands. We will not be back. Food: 1 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 5
