    John Ash is consistently top quality food, service and atmosphere. Of course, this comes at a orice, so because of the location, it is recommended as a splurge. Guests at the Vintners will find it perfect and commensurate with the rates of the Inn. A deluxe wine country experience

    It was a packed house for Thanksgiving. We arrived 5 minutes early for our 6:45 reservation and did not get seated for 35 minutes. The food was good but wasn’t warm enough. I felt like they needed more servers for the night but our server was very pleasant and sweet.

    A good experience overall. Had to wait 40 minutes after reservation time to be seated. Once seated it took another 20 minutes for server to appear. Drinks were very late and ran up against dinner first course. Server was very -peasant and helpful once she showed up. Food was good. They really needed more server staff to accommodate the full house. For a premier expensive dinner, service should have been better.

    We were a group of seven who had a prepaid Thanksgiving dinner at John Ash. We arrived 5 minutes early for a 5:30 reservation. The waiting area was packed. We were not seated until 5:55 PM. The menu was impressive and the food was very good. The service was less than adequate due to how busy it was. Our reservation specified indoor seating but we were seated on the patio and several of our party were cold. I will reiterate—the food was very good and well presented. But the total experience and value were below expectations.

    Hi Robert, My sincerest apologies about not being able to seat as promptly as we would have liked to. My service staff is known to be above and beyond and I can appreciate you honest feedback as it bring insight I need to continue to improve. I'm pleased to know that even though I may have missed the mark in service you did enjoy the culinary experience. I would enjoy the opportunity to invite you back and give the prompt and quality service that I would have hoped you received. Warm Regards, Paul J. Morales Food & Beverage Manager John Ash, Vintners Resort.

    $168 for a pathetic 4-course thanksgiving dinner. Mediocre food. Indifferent service. I guess because the customers pre-paid they felt they could provide Applebee's style service. I ordered a glass of non-alcoholic wine which was horrible and $14 a glass - ludicrous! I was able to get the attention of one of the indifferent servers as they sped by to ask for a cup of coffee. John Ash used to be an elegant wonderful restaurant in which I've spent many celebratory events, but it has really gone down hill. Don't waste your money, don't go to this restaurant.
    John Ash & Co.Responded 1 day ago
    Hi Sallie, I'm terribly sorry to hear that your dining experience was sub-par and that we seemed to have missed the mark with you're family and self. the fact that you did not have a warming feeling from staff and felt that it was "indifferent" at best, is not what we strive for. my goal is that every guest has a memorable experience that creates a family feel every time. I completely understand your comment but would like the opportunity to show you the value of my staff and that this is not what to expect from my team. if you are open to me welcome you back and given the opportunity to give the quality service I know we offer. I hope to speak soon. Warm Regards, Paul J. Morales Food & Beverage Manager John Ash, Vintners Resort.

    The Chef was amazing and made my sister, who is vegan gluten free, a special and delicious 4 course meal for Thanksgiving of vegan gluten free dishes. We couldn't have been happier with the special service and consideration to make our family Thanksgiving dinner a complete delight.

    Hi Jolene, It was a genuine pleasure to host your family they were so pleasant and their smiles and compliments made our efforts feel beyond appreciated. I truly hope that we can see more of everyone and that we continue to your annual Thanksgiving experience for years to come. Warm Regards, Paul J.

    i’ve loved John Ash for years, but after the last two times dining it seems they are getting too pricey for the product. the service remains excellent, though. My pork sugo was bland and 2 pieces of pork were too fatty. the wine mark-ups are brutal. we paid $79 for a bottle that retails for $25. the bar is fantastic and we’ll certainly return there, just probably do our next birthday dinner elsewhere.
