"Although the food was absolutely fantastic and top notch, the whole dinner was WAY overpriced. The Side Stage experience was very cool, except you couldn't see the bands from your table. You could, however, walk at anytime to a great viewing area. Because it was a Daou (a Paso Robles winery) side stage experience dinner, I assumed we would have access to other Daou wine choices but much to my dismay, they were simply the same exact wines you could purchase anywhere at the venue. PLUS, for the price of $550 for two of us, you would think that would include wine or at least one drink. Nope. All alcohol had to be purchased separately. Lastly, the service was horrid. You could tell the servers were inexperienced and it showed. Several people at our group table (you were randomly sat with others, which is always fun) received various courses at different times than their date or friends. That happened to me as well, so my girlfriend felt obligated to wait while her food got cold until I finally was served. Overall, the food was 5 stars, service was 1 star, the price/value was 1 star, and the concert dinner side stage experience was 4 stars. For $250 for two, I would do it again. $550 for two, with zero drinks included, absolutely not."
