        <content>Thinking of driving out to Flint Hill, VA, to try this place for dinner (not brunch).  Can anyone provide a review?  Any recent experiences?  Thanks!</content>

      <content>Made the drive out there on a beautiful spring day last year, it was definitely worth the trip.  All the dishes were very good and the service was excellent.</content>

      <content>Absolutely worth the drive for dinner or brunch, especially during nice weather.  Was there last for dinner in the fall - we went out on a Saturday for an earlyish dinner, preceded by visiting a few of the wineries in the general area.  have done a similar thing for late-ish sunday brunch......Can't think of anything they've ever served me that I didn't enjoy.</content>

      <content>Depends what you're looking for.  You're not going to find anything earth-shatteringly creative, but we had wonderful food when we went a little over a year ago.  If you make a day of it and visit some of the area wineries (as we and others did -- we really liked Linden), it's worth it.  A mini-vacation.</content>

      <content>I went out there after wine tasting and apple picking a little over a year ago, and it was a meal that always sticks out in my mind.  I agree that nothing was earth shattering, but it was the right combination of homey decor, good food, great service and plenty of food.  I don't remember what we ordered, but I do remember that the portions were definitely hearty, and they have a big selection of local wines there.  If you're heading out to that area (either for hiking or wine tasting), I'd say there's no better place to stop.</content>
