Update ListingThis is an elegant spot linked to the nearby Lafond Winery and run by chef Joshua Keating. The glass-topped tables, open kitchen and soft-hued paintings make it a good place to linger and sip. Breakfast starts with organic coffee served in ceramic troughs and a variety of choices: chilaquiles ($7.50), smoked salmon platter ($12), pancakes ($4.50 to $7.75). Later in the day, try the mojito steak panini -- a tender, tangy bit of tri-tip. Dinner entrees $14.95 to $20.9...
Open Hours: Mon-Fri 9am-10pm; Sat-Sun 8am - 10pm

Unpleasant first-time experience.

To be very brief, this estab-lishment needs some serious attention. Though room was void of customers, service was non-existent. Good help is hard to find but it was obvious Management provided no training to the employees on duty. Unfortunately, and unfairly, it is they who must deal with customers' wrath.
AS for food - one dinner was excellent, the other inedible and not as menu describes. All in all, a most unpleasant experience, not just for the guests but for the employees as well. Would I return? Only for the eggplant cannelloni!!!
