We celebrated our friend's 40th birthday in Texas wine country and enjoyed dinner here based on other reviews here on Trip Advisor and we were not disappointed! The food was very good. The patio was perfect. One of my companions said she wished her backyard was as nice as Cabernet's patio. I enjoyed the Two Pigs Spinach Salad and the... More

Go for the atmosphere, but yes, the food is fabulous,too. This is the second time I have eaten at the Cabernet Grill. This time I had the buffalo enchilada. It was huge. I tried hard to eat only half, but I wound up eating the whole thing. Yum! If you have the time, check out the cute cabins that are... More

I had a strip sirloin that was cooked perfect . The three cheese grits added to the flavor. I also ordered a quail side which I enjoyed. The atmosphere is unique as I think it was part of an old cotton gin. James was our waiter and did an excellent job. I don't remember what my wife had but she... More

My wife and I dined here recently to celebrate her most recent 29th birthday. It was, as always, a delightful dining experience. Our reservations were for 7 and we were promptly seated inside. James, our waiter, was friendly and efficient. My wife enjoyed her Cosmo and I my Shiraz. We shared a lump crab appetizer that was delicious. She had... More

A friend of mine who frequents Fredericksburg took me to Cabernet. She and her husband have been several times and everything was excellent. She had a hard time telling me what to get since everything is good. I got the Sesame Shrimp and it was to die for; side of three cheese grits, wonderful. We had reservations on a Saturday... More

We found the restaurant on TripAdvisor, but were still expecting a touristy restaurant. Well, it wasn't or at least didn't feel like it. We dined there on a Wed. night and found it to be a wonderful dining experience. We can't speak to the noise level or the crowds on the weekends. We sat outside, the service (never were we... More

The food was excellent, however the ambience was lacking due to the noise level. Attenuation of the crowd noise would make this facility a much better dining experience.

We chose this restaurant via a recommendation from a friend. I also checked Trip Advisor as well prior to our trip to Fredericksburg. We ate hear mid week, so we had no difficulty being seated around 7:00. I'm sure if you appeared on a Friday or Saturday evening, reservations would be needed. Great street appeal with water features and an... More
