My advice is to check their drink specials online before you go. They have some creative cocktails that are surprisingly affordable during happy hour.

I suggest visiting around sunset. The view is absolutely breathtaking and you’ll get that perfect golden hour lighting for photos!

I suggest you get there around 11:30 AM to beat the lunch rush. We showed up at noon and waited for 30 minutes. The food is worth the wait but a little planning helps.

My advice is to try the lamb burger—definitely a standout item on the menu! It was so delish, I ended up ordering it twice!

Grab a seat near the edge for the best views, but be patient as it can get crowded. I waited a bit, and it was totally worth it!

If you're looking to save some bucks check their social media for any happy hour deals or special events – I scored some amazing discounts.

Don't shy away from asking the bartenders for cocktail recommendations – they know their stuff and can whip up something fantastic based on your taste!

I think it’s best to make a reservation, especially on weekends. I walked in during peak dinner hours and ended up waiting almost 30 minutes, which wasn’t fun after a long day of exploring!

I recommend checking out the happy hour specials, usually from 3-5 PM. You can save a bit and still enjoy some great seafood! I had their clam chowder, and wow, it was delicious at a good price.

One thing I’d suggest is to go for the daily special! The chef's choice was great when I went, and it’s often a dish that isn’t on the regular menu. And make sure to save room for dessert – totally worth it!

If you're a coffee lover, don't miss the artisan coffee stands! But be warned, some of them can get busy, so timing is key. Go early!

I think you should skip lunch beforehand; the food here is so tempting! I ended up trying way more than I planned - and it was all worth it!

My advice is to check out the food stands that are less crowded; you might find hidden gems! I loved the tacos from a smaller vendor that had no line!

Be prepared for a bit of chaos, especially around lunchtime. I suggest setting a specific time to meet friends or family if you get separated!

Bring a picnic! The outdoor area is lovely and you can enjoy their wines with your own snacks. Just make sure to ask if it's allowed when you arrive.

Try the sparkling wines – they are fantastic! I wasn't expecting to love them so much. You’ll want to get your tastings, but don't miss out on these gems.

I think it's smart to download their menu before you go. That way, you won’t waste time deciding what to eat when you get there and you can even figure out the best deals beforehand.

My advice is to ask for recommendations on pairings—they're super helpful! I didn’t do this at first and missed out on some delicious combinations that would have enriched my tasting experience.

Don't skip the picnic area! Grab some cheese, a baguette, and a bottle of wine to enjoy there. It's such a lovely spot, and you'll appreciate the scenery while tasting the local flavors.

I recommend visiting on a weekday to avoid the weekend crowds. It's way more relaxed, and you get more personal attention from the staff. Plus, you can enjoy the cheese tastings without feeling rushed!
