This review is about the Vintage House Restaurant at Messina Hof Winery $ Resort. I have been to this restaurant about 4-5 times in the past 3 years. The food is excellent, staff is friendly and great service, great environment, it's the best restaurant I know in College Station, TX. Very romantic if that's what you are looking for, you definitely get what you are paying. I don't presonally think it's overpriced... many dishes cos ~$20 on average, maybe less. some, of course, will be ~$25 or so, depending. Messina Hof wine is EXCELLENT, I reccomend it to anyone. Their wine is so good and so cheap. The first time my wife and I went to the restaurant, order a bottle of wine and liked it so much we've been buying many of their wines often. Their average wine bottle will cost around $12-20, and they are GOOD. You can get them at HEB, or anywhere around. Back to the restaurant, they have a lot of choices, great desserts. Once, i went with 3 people, and we ordered a bottle. They served the other tree people and after they served my glass, I noticed there was a little wine fly in the wine. The wine bottle was completely gone by the time they had finished pouring the wine. I told they waiter and she called the manager. He was extremely nice, he explaines to me that these little flies are in the vineyard, and that sometimes get inside the bottles when making the wine. He said that particular wine they did not serve by the glass and offered me a new bottle on the house. it was great !!... Anyway, highly recommended, especially for special things like birthdays, graduation, romantic dinner, etc.
