Lovely views. The pro tip is to do the tasting with the food pairing. they grow the food they serve on-site. Well worth the price tag. It's a full meal and an excellent way to spend the afternoon.

Our favorite part of this new swanky spot is the bar. The food is good but - you're staying in Los Alamos and the food is better in town at Bell's and Pico. But the pub and snacks are so worth it after a day hanging in Los Olivos.
