Definitely one of east Texas’ finest finds. Awesome location/view. Have taken several out of town guests and all were impressed. Great food and good wine selection. Have been many times and never been disappointed. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Especially enjoy visiting during special events. This is what you would expect dinner at a winery to be. You do need to make a reservation for dinner at the main lodge as it gets very busy on the weekend.

The wine was wonderful. Hannah was very helpful and an exceptional hostess. A lovely way to spend a Saturday afternoon with friends.

Wine is great! View is incredible. Operation could be run a little better. Some employees and maybe the owner seem a little sketchy but other than that it’s good food and views!

I’ve waited a while to review Enoch’s because it’s local to me. Wanted to make sure I wasn’t being a biased homer because of the location. After a few visits here, I believe that it is the awesome place I thought it was after just one visit. There are two dining areas – the patio/tasting room and the main restaurant. The tasting room has a pub fare menu but do not let that deter you from eating there. Everything I’ve had has been excellent. I’ve tried the nachos, pizza, cubano, salads, etc. The ingredients are always fresh and the seasoning is perfect. In the main restaurant, the menu is more extensive. The steak I’ve had was tender, cooked to perfection, and delicious. It was as good as anything out there. The views and overall atmosphere are outstanding. I’ve eaten in Napa and their sterile immediate surroundings can’t hold a candle to the feel of Enoch’s. The scenery holds its own against anything the Northern California wine country has to offer. It is a true pleasure to visit this vineyard. One disclaimer: There are a lot of young people working as wait staff here. They are not the most aggressive servers you are going to find so they’ll need a little direction from you. If you need something, ask. They won’t have the experience to know your needs. They are not there to maximize the revenue from your table so level set your expectations with them from the start and you’ll have a wonderful experience.

I attended a wedding this past weekend. The facilities and grounds are beautiful, but service and hospitality to the guests and the wedding party were majorly lacking. Enoch’s provided a bartender, but refused to chill the kegs of beer without argument, eventually selling bags of ice for $ 2 after a bartender told the owner that $ 4 a bag was unreasonable. Some bottles of whiskey were brought as a gift to the groom and the owner tried to confiscate them. They had to be snatched out of her hands. These two situations transpired in open view of guests and people visiting the patio for wine and appetizers, how unprofessional. The food was tasty, but could have been better. At the very least, the dinner rolls could have been warmed before serving. Also, the agreement upon payment was that the winery would decorate after being shown a table as an example. At the final meeting between the couple and event coordinator, it was announced that there would be no decorating by the winery and that the event coordinator would not even be present for the event. I suggest if you have your event hosted here, that you have everything in writing, in order to prevent undo last minute stress to yourselves. Be sure to have that agreement in writing before you finish paying in full. The preparation room for the bridal party is nice, but small. There is no room for the groomsmen, which made it difficult for pictures and getting ready. Enoch’s Stomp needs to up their service game to couples getting married. They had an event planned the night before the wedding, preventing the rehearsal from taking place there. This event was cancelled last minute, and they could have profited from allowing two events at once, or staggering the event times. Their barrel room is beautiful for a wedding, but it is completely open to the event hall, rendering the place useless to couples wanting their rehearsal to take place when there is an internal event planned. It would be much better for the barrel room and the event hall to be physically separated so that two events would be possible. I’m sure the wedding couple would have had their rehearsal dinner at the winery, had they been able to rehearse in the same space where they were marrying the next day.

We met some friends for dinner at Enoch’s over the Fourth of July weekend. We live in Dallas but come to East Texas to our lake house every other weekend. We were not aware that this place even existed just a few miles away from our weekend retreat. It is a beautiful property with meticulous vineyards surrounding the restaurant and wine tasting buildings. The food was fresh and delicious. The views were spectacular with the setting sun over the vineyard. It is something you would find in one of the better restaurants in Dallas tucked away in some rolling hills in far East Texas. The menu seems to be designed to compliment their wine selections that are all made on site. We all shared a Napa Cheese plate to start with that was plentiful with outstanding cheese and sliced meat selections. The main courses did not disappoint either with farm fresh vegetables, prime cuts of steak and a plate of seafood pasta. We will be returning to this place, hands down, and look forward to taking friends that come visit the piney woods of East Texas with us on the weekends. It’s a must try kind of place even if you have make a little extra effort to get there.

The location & scenery definitely deserves 5 stars. It is an absolutely beautiful property that feels far removed from East Texas. The new tasting room/patio was the reason for our visit this weekend. They deserve 4⁄5 stars here too. They’ve built a really nice casual dining venue alongside their main restaurant. There’s seating both inside and out. We sat outside & revisited their wine flight offerings(dry or sweet — $ 7). They have some nice wines here & a variety of light meals to satisfy most tastes. We chose sandwiches, but there were also meat & cheese boards, pizzas, sliders, chips & queso — quite an assortment. Service: Here is where they lose stars. While we had a very nice server, it’s all in the details & the details were lacking. Service was very slow, even though we were one of only a few tables occupied. Basic items were forgotten. Food took a very long time — that would have been more acceptable if it arrived at our table piping hot, but it did not. Service definitely could be improved. All in all, worth the trip & we will return. I just hope service is better next time.

The Traveling Winers on Texas Wine Trail From the moment you enter the property, you think«NOWTHISIS A VINEYARD!» The gravel road winding through the gentle rolling, vine-covered hills leads you to the welcoming tasting room and restaurant across the way. This establishment was a hands-down, unanimous«5-grapes» from all 4 «winers» in wine making, customer service, and the wine tasting experience as a whole! We were so impressed by this vineyard and winery that we’ve decided to call our wine trail this weekend ‘The Enoch’s Stomp Wine Trail”! The Traveling Winers at The Vineyard Trail

I wish I could give it a 10! Wow!!! Do yourself a favor and visit Enoch’s. Great people, great wine, and a view you can’t beat. They have something special going on here. We will be back in October for Pumpkin Stomp. We spoke with the executive chef and he is all about sourcing local ingredients. Go, just go. You will be pleasantly rewarded.

We were stunned to discover this hidden gem in northwest Harrison County! It is worth the drive just to see a beautiful vineyard in a most unexpected place, the Piney Woods of East Texas! We were greeted by a friendly staff member on a very slow Thursday afternoon. We were presented menus. Our order was professionally prepared and quite tasty. We also ordered the wine sampler and enjoyed the tasting. We can’t wait to return to try their dinner menu. A place this nice in this part of the world needs to be supported.

Great wine and venue. Can’t speak for the restaurant as we only got wine flights and a cheese board at the tasting room. Can’t believe this little gem is in East Texas.

The venue is beautiful. We started by going to the tasting room and trying their dry wine flight. The wine was quite good and the lady helping us was wonderful. She was very kind and attentive. We had a reservation at the restaurant portion and the service was less than stellar. We didn’t even get a waiter for 30 – 45 minutes. We were sat on the front patio which was gorgeous but I think they forgot we were out there. My prime rib was very overcooked. It took quite a while to get our food out. The restaurant staff seemed overwhelmed. I think they overbooked and could not accommodate this mistake. Overall, I’d absolutely return for the wine and tasting room but would skip the restaurant all together(except for maybe the meat and cheese plate). The vineyard is absolutely beautiful!

The ambiance is beautiful with the feeling of being in the foothills of some location other than East Texas. Staff is friendly and courteous as well as attentive. The wines are award winning and delicious with a nice assortment for all likings. We had duck and prime tub which were both excellent, tasty, and cooked nicely. Our appetizers and salad were excellent. This is definitely a location place and quite relaxing and enjoyable. We can’t wait to go vack for an event or another couples outing.

This place was recommended by so many people and I’m unsure why. First, our service was awful. Our waiter was untrained and set out to wait on us. He didn’t know the first thing about the menu or customer service. Second, the food was not worth the price. Our waiter said their queso was cooked to order but it looked like it was velveta cheese that was warmed up. It took a whole 3 minutes to cool off and was harder than a rock. Our meat was over cooked and the tres leches we got as our dessert was so dry! Where was the leches(milk) in our dessert? The wine was actually quite good and if we ever did return it would only be for the wine.

Wow, what a disappointment. I was in town from Long Island, NY, visiting my family, and Enoch’s was highly recommended. The server staff was grade A. Fantastic. The failure came with the manager and the kitchen staff. Almost everyone in our party ordered something that was altered by the kitchen(they where out), leading to our waitstaff having to come back to us apologetically with news that the kitchen was out of whatever we ordered.

Keep in mind, «Dining is not just the food, it’s the experience.» Venue: Unbelievable, the rolling hills of a fully operational grape vineyard in the back woods of East Texas. Isolated, peaceful, and beautiful with fabulous outdoor views from both the restaurant, a.k.a. Lodge, and the Winery which is the event room. Outdoor seating at both will be a must when temperatures drop a bit. Indoor is an elegant lodge themed dining room, though the tables are a bit crowded together. Unfortunately, I walked out behind the event room where there is a huge fire pit that will be perfect for fall/winter outdoor seating and noticed trash scattered about and unfinished construction of a bamboo wall along the hill that looks to be washing away. While I don’t expect anyone will be gathering around the fire pit anytime soon, I recommend keeping it neat for wanderers like myself and acknowledge the work in progress on the bamboo wall. Service: Everyone was so welcoming and accommodating. While we waited for our table to be cleared for our 6:30 reservation, the General Manager gave us a mini tour and explained some of the vineyard processes. Our waiter was a very attentive. My only complain is the wine service. This IS a vineyard restaurant so the focus should be the wine. Neither our waiter nor those I saw serving other tables knew how to serve wine. They just popped the top and proceeded to pour every glass to full — evenly dividing the contents of the bottle among the glasses. So, if the owner happens to read this post, here is my suggestion for wine service: 1. Server presents the bottle of wine to the table and asks who will approve the wine. 2. The server uncorks the bottle and hands the cork to the person who will approve. 3. The waiter pours a small portion of wine into the approver’s glass and allows the approver to assess the wine-swirl it, smell it, taste it, etc. 4. If given the nod of approval on the bottle, the server then pours SMALL servings-about ¼ to 1⁄3 of the glass– for all who will be partaking. 5. The bottle will most likely not be empty, so it remains at the table. 6. The server may return later and offer to refill some of the glasses but, again, don’t pour the glass more than 1⁄3 to ¼ full. The wine and food: Do the wine flight. It is handled beautifully and gives a chance to try before committing to a full bottle. However, I caution mixing wine tasting with dinner. We were so stuffed we could hardly make the drive back home. I strongly suggest you plan to either taste the wine and partake of some of the wonderful appetizers with your flight or go for dinner. For appetizers, we chose to share the cheese plate and the meat plate among 4 people. The wine in my «not so wine snobby» opinion was above average for Texas wines. You can choose a sweet flight or a dry flight. The cheese and meat plates were great and included cheese, assorted crackers, marinated veggies including artichoke hearts, several fruit choices, bread, and dipping olive oil. The entrees were good. Grilled portabella and red pepper on cibatta bread was amazing. The salad that came as a side to the dish was rather boring but the homemade onion dressing was great. Two ribeyes one with potato strings and one with baked potato were properly prepared. Would like to see a little more finesse on the prep. Need to carmelize a crust on the steak, but these were probably a bit on the thin side for doing that. Filet was OK but a bit dry when cooked to medium. Topped with a nice glaze. I recommend ordering medium rare or choosing another cut. Dessert: Lavender ice cream was interesting. Service would have been better if the ice cream had been formed into a scoop ball and added some simple garnish like a mint leaf or, better yet, a lavender sprig. I hope this restaurant is around for many years to come. It has so much potential.
