We were excited to visit this wine tasting bar and checked their website beforehand to book a tasting slot. After creating a profile, the website malfunctioned and directed us to call instead. We called several times, but no one answered, only an automated message stating that they welcome walk-ins. Based on that, we made the trip specifically from Los Angeles.
When we arrived, we were immediately and rudely confronted by a woman who told us that dogs were not allowed. I calmly explained that my dog is a medical service animal and that I had all the required documentation. Instead of handling the situation professionally, she loudly — and in front of the entire restaurant — dismissed my explanation, claiming the dog "looked like a lap dog" and stating that this was her business and she "makes the rules."
I have traveled all around the world with my service dog and have never experienced such ignorance, hostility, or blatant discrimination. It was not just rude, it was deeply disrespectful and completely unacceptable.
We chose to leave immediately. I refuse to argue about my medical condition in public or subject myself to further disrespect.
If you care about basic human dignity, professionalism, and being treated with respect, stay far away from this place. There are many other wine bars that understand the importance of treating all guests with decency and inclusivity. This one clearly does not.
