Poor customer service. I along with my wife entered this restaurant for drinks. We were not welcome upon entry nor directed to a table. As we both went to be seated at the bar we were told that these seats were reserved but the bartender or any other staff did not direct us to any seat that were available. We left as a result of this poor customer service and lack of common respect to customers entering a restaurant. This event occurred on new years eve at 4:25 pm 2014 when the restaurant itself was empty. As members of the Folsom community we expected better from this restaurant business.
I didn’t like or dislike it. I had the Prix fixe menu. The appetizer was a mushroom and corn salad – would have been good but was under seasoned and no salt was on the table to save it. The entree was a seafood stew – the broth was phenomenal tasting, but shrimp were rubbery and they were pretty chintzy on the salmon portion, all I got were crumbs of salmon. For dessert it was a homemade ice cream sandwich, which had great flavor but the cookie part was just too hard. You couldn’t bite through it and cutting it with a knife resulted in it flying off the plate and onto my clothes. Kinda aggravating. I might go back if I were on business again and weren’t spending my own money.
Really good!!!. This is a small restarant in a strip mall but it’s food and inside ambiance is excellent. Highly recommended! Very high quality chef cuisine at reasonable price.
To Owner. Love this place as far as atmosphere and Food & Wine selection. My only critism is I’d like them to match the Service to the Pricing, Food and Atmosphere. The lack of individual service to tables, has made me hesitant to spend my time and money there. Hope they take this to heart so the business will grow.

Not a fan of the plastic black plate it was served on, but the rest made up for it!Humboldt fog (Aged Goat, California)Roaring 40’s Blue (Cow, Tasmania)Dlice de Bourgogne (Cow, France)Gran Queso (Aged Cow, Wisconsin)30 Dec, 2011A Taste of Everything. Quaint atmosphere, good service. My only suggestion to the management is that they find a way to keep the curtain closed between the kitchen and dining area. Otherwise we had a good experience. We started with the Artisanal Cheese Plate, a really nice variety of cheeses, fruit compote and nuts. We tried their Cabernet Sauvignon wine sampler, which was Bridesmaid, Napa Valley 2006, Stone Edge Farm, Sonoma 2007, and Paradigm, Oakville 2005. Topped off with simple entrees of pasta marinra and beef skewers. We plan to go back.
Great food. Good wine. The turkey,tomato, and basil panini was great
Back Wine Baris a small &intmate place for a great light dinner and a glass of wine. The staff is friendly and very passionate about food & wine. The ahi poke was tasty and Jeff, the owner, always makes a great creme brle. The wine list has a lot of fun geeky wines as well as some crowd pleasers and an intriguing bottle list.
