Fountain Creek Winery and Eatery — Restaurant in Fountain

Honestly I would of giving a 5 star because the food was outstanding, Ray our server was very nice and it’s a cute cafe type bistro dining experience. What I detested was our reservation was at 7:30 and starting at 8 we were made well aware that they were closed at 8! For a finer dining experience this should never take place especially since there were plenty of diners dining. We only drove from the springs to dine here because of a email I received about the St Patrick’s Day menu and our reservation was on St Patrick’s day, a Friday, you’d think they would be prepared for later diners, it’s a holiday and a Friday!!! Had I known that they truly don’t want diners at 7:30 because they close at 8, and they all constantly make you aware of it including the older female owner( she literally asked our server in front of us, “how much longer”) we would of dined somewhere else. Our server never intentionally herself rushed us but was relentless on letting us know and it started at 8 and never stopped til the moment we left!! We would of loved to go back here to eat again but after that it falls off my list of great places to go and I will probably unsubscribe so I don’t receive further emails because I don’t like to dine where I’m not welcomed!!!! When I’m spending good money on food and drinks and what’s suppose to be a more fine dining experience, I don’t need to be made to feel this way. It’s extremely tacky and the reason the staff acts this way is because the owner does. Shame...

Large European charcuterie board $25 2/5 Artichoke Dip: $16 4/5 Wine flight: $12 (“price varies based on the wines chosen. fruit wines: peach, blueberry, dragon fruit, strawberry) Chocolate brownie (with vanilla ice cream) $10 3/5

Server name: I think she’s new, so I won’t write it. Service: 4/5 The charcuterie board was very disappointing and under whelming. The fruits (strawberries and grapes) where either cut too thick or not cut at all; there was more of the fruits than meats (smoked salmon and pepperoni) and cheeses (there was two types cheeses, both similar in flavor and texture, I failed to recognize it/them). The servers to asks us if we wanted to order an entrée, multiple times whilst we were eating, despite us saying to wait until we were done with what we started with. When we ordered dessert, there was no menu incorporating them (not physical or online). Once we ordered our dessert we asked for a slice of chocolate cake, we received a brownie. I asked a different waitress what this dessert was, simply because I was caught off guard, and she informed me that they had no ‘true’ chocolate cake. As far as the flavor, it’s a fudge brownie, but it tastes like a cosmic brownie. The vanilla ice cream was generic, but still...
