Hi just checking back in here. The wine we had from Philo ridge was good to excellent. I really liked the unoaked Card and the Pinot Noir was fantastic.

Regarding Nate Appleman yes he wa sthere and people at our table saw him cutting out early and commented to Jim about this.

I think those of you commenting on the price point are correct. At this price I don't expect to have to be forgiving about working out the kinks, it should run perfectly. I think OITF has come along way on the founders charisma but that they really need to step up the food and service.

We just attended OIF and I would love to come here and rave about it but it really didn't come close to expectations. This was the Petaluma event and we experienced many of the same problems others mentioned here.

THE GOOD
-Great location.
-Great company, there were 3 in our little group but everyone around us was fun and interesting.
-Unique experience

THE BAD
-Not enough staff.
-Not enough food. (were not big people or big eaters)
-Not enough wine. (at these prices I never want to see the bottom of my glass)
-The food presented was barely above fancy picnic food level and nothing I couldnt do myself. Im looking to be wowed by a great chef in a great setting.
-NO COFFEE inexcusable I make killer espresso and coffee when im camping and this is far from that.
-Give better directions esp. when your in a rural area.

Would I go again? we decided no that we would take our collective $600 and go out to a guaranteed great dinner at one of our faves.
