I am giving a 1 star review for the candlelight dinner portion only - not for the whole place in general. They do not have dinner often at the farm, it looks like a handful of times throughout the season. We were so very excited to take a 5 pm reservation to have a romantic candlelit dinner in the barn to celebrate our anniversary. It was $42 a person, not including gratuity - so $100 for the meal. When we arrived there for our reservation, we were told it was not going to be in the barn, but in a small room attached to their winery. The main reason why we decided to partake in the dinner was for the whole experience in the barn. Once we arrived in the room, there were no candles at all. So giving the name candlight dinner was incredibly misconceiving. We were told in the description we would be getting an assortment of cheeses. This was not the case, but rather just a cheeseball to share with the other guests. We were to receive a mixed greens with peaches, candied walnuts, and aged cheddar. There were no walnuts on the salad, which we did not complain. Just odd. The dressing was not good. The main reason why we are so disappointed was the food once served was so cold. We could barely eat it. I have never in my life ate at a restaurant that served the food ice cold. Once we ate what we could stand, we pushed our plates to the side. At that point, the waitress collected our plates, but sat down a bowl of butter at our table. My husband and I were very confused because our meal was finished and we had ate the roll that came with it. We have no idea why she would sit a bowl of butter down after collecting our plates. The people next to us found it hilarious too. Next came the dessert. It was a pecan, chocolate-bourbon cobbler. We were so looking forward to it. But was awful. We couldn't eat it. The crust was no where done and there was so much bourbon in it, it overpowered any other flavor. It tasted straight up like cold bourbon mess. We looked at the other guests, and no one ate the dessert. Many got up to leave at that point. The room was so cold that I had to purchase a sweater there. We were not given refills on our water. It was the strangest experience ever. It is such a shame because $100 spent on a terrible meal is really such a waste. At least we did get a good laugh about it on the way home. I do recommend visiting the farm because it is kinda neat to see once, but I really really do not recommend trying the candlelight dinner to anyone...
Read moreWe drove from Indianapolis and walked up to the door and couldn’t get in the winery. We are looking for another door and we see two tables full of people on the patio. We ask how to get in and they said they closed the doors early because they weren’t busy. We got there a little after four and their hours are until 5. The one table told us they knocked on the door and a man sold them a bottle of wine. We tried to do that and no one came to the door. A few minutes later a man came out of the winery and saw us on the patio but just walked to his red GMC truck. The people at the patio table said that’s the man. He jumped in his truck and turned the opposite way quickly. How unprofessional to close nearly an hour early because you aren’t busy. It’s a gorgeous day and there are already 6 people on the patio so we would have made 8 people in total in the small winery on a weekday. There were also quite a few people who stopped at the garden who could have been potential visitors to the winery. We have traveled a long way to get here and as I said very unprofessional especially since the man working there saw us standing on the patio and rushed off. There is no closing sign on the door. No, I’m sorry I have an emergency and...
Read moreStream Cliff Inn in Commiskey, Indiana, has become a cherished tradition for my family, especially for our annual Mother's Day celebration. With its charming atmosphere and delightful offerings, it consistently ranks as my top choice for a special occasion. During our recent visit, I ordered the sampler plate, and I have to say, the seafood salad was the absolute standout. It was, without a doubt, the best I've ever had! What also impressed me was the beautiful presentation of the food. Each plate was adorned with delicate edible flowers, adding a touch of elegance and artistry. It's clear that Stream Cliff Inn pays attention to every detail, ensuring that everything looks as delicious as it tastes.
