The INGE Pizza
The Inge pizza, named after Auto Vino's talented charcuterie and culinary designer, Inge, is a popular choice at Friday Happy Hour and during the Auto Vino lunch service from Friday through Sunday.
Inge is known for her five-star reviews as the host of Auto Vino's events, wine tastings, and lunch service, so Inge brings her creative expertise to this pizza.
Cooked in a 900-degree oak wood fire oven, the pizza has a crispy crust and a chewy interior.
It is topped with crispy pepperoni, earthy mushrooms, roasted garlic, and salty black olives, and it delivers a savory, smoky flavor that keeps guests returning for more.
The oak wood fire enhances each topping, making The Inge a standout, handcrafted pizza experience.
Chicken Wings at Events
Our chicken wings are cooked in a blazing 900-degree wood-fired oven. The intense heat creates a crispy, charred exterior while locking in the juicy, tender meat.
These wings are served fresh at our Auto Vino events, from the oven to the table. They pack a bold, smoky flavor that's not just memorable; it's an adventure for your taste buds.
If you want wings done right, join us at Friday Happy Hour and taste them fresh out of the fire.

Each meatball infuses a rich, smoky flavor from the oak, perfectly balancing a crispy, golden-brown exterior with a tender, juicy interior.
As these meatballs sizzle in the oven, the rich aroma of seasoned beef mingles with the distinctive smoky scent of oak wood creates a compelling experience for your senses.
With their exceptional combination of textures and flavors, these meatballs are perfect as appetizers or finger food, making them a standout choice for any event—private or corporate—at Auto Vino.

Gourmet Burgers at Auto Vino
Enjoy our gourmet burgers at Auto Vino from Friday to Sunday during lunch hours. Explore the artistry behind our burger patties as they cook to perfection.
The process begins with a perfectly seasoned meat patty, which transforms inside a blazing 900-degree wood-fired oven.
The patty sizzles and sears in the iron skillet, developing a beautifully caramelized crust. The high heat locks in the juices, intensifying the rich, savory flavors.
As the patty peaks, a thick slice of American cheese melts smoothly over it, creating a gooey, irresistible finish.
Rich tomato slices blend seamlessly into pools of bubbling mozzarella, leading to smoky, fire-roasted bell peppers and the deep warmth of roasted garlic. Crisp, sizzling pepperoni slices curl at the edges as tangy red onion adds a sharp contrast. The final touch—a burst of fiery jalapeños—ties it all together, showcasing the vibrant layers and bold flavors that make this pizza unforgettable. It’s the essence of authentic Neapolitan-style pizza, where each ingredient shines on a perfectly charred, airy crust that’s crispy and tender, capturing the soul of old-world pizza craftsmanship.
Auto Vino Wine Garden
The Auto Vino wine garden is a relaxed and inviting space surrounded by beautiful grapevines—Chardonnay, Cabernet, and Zinfandel—that create a natural and scenic border. The atmosphere combines rustic charm with casual elegance, making it an ideal spot to gather, enjoy great food, and savor the wine.
In the center of the garden is the Auto Vino Pizza Outpost, a cozy shack where a skilled Pizzaiolo crafts authentic Neapolitan pizzas. Guests can watch the pizzas assembled on a long prep counter and then cooked to perfection in a 900-degree woodfire oven. The process adds to the inviting atmosphere, filling the air with delicious aromas.
Adjacent to the Auto Vino Pizza Outpost is the 1955 Flxible Diner Bus, a vintage bus transformed into a distinctive dining area. This retro treasure adds a touch of nostalgia and elevates the dining experience. Guests can enjoy gourmet food cooked in an oak wood fire oven, ensuring that every meal is truly memorable.
At Auto Vino wine garden, communal seating is not just a feature; it's a critical element that encourages guests to mingle and creates a relaxed, social atmosphere. Whether you're interested in wine tastings, casual bites, or a more intimate gathering, the communal seating arrangement ensures you're always close to the action.
Dogs are more than welcome—they're part of the fun. Daisy, the resident yellow Lab, is not just there to greet guests, she's there to create a warm, homey feel. It's a place to relax, chat with friends, or enjoy quiet moments while your dog roams freely.

A special "thank you" to John Neve from Sigona's Farmers Market at the Stanford Shopping Center for choosing Auto Vino as the event venue to host "The Crumble of Cheeses." John is obsessed with providing his customers with the best cheeses from around the world like we are about preserving rare & exotic cars.
John brought together at the event two of the world's top experts on cheese. Caroline Hostettler is a world-renowned Alp cheese expert and Francis Percival who co-authored the ultimate book on cheese, "Reinventing the Wheel, and shared an insightful lecture on the future of cheese in a changing world.
The event was another in a series Sigona's Farmers Market puts on to educate and have fun with their customers on some of the more exceptional things in life – like fine cheese.
At one corner was Caroline bringing "Alp Sprinz AOP 2016 from Switzerland. The cheese wheel, made by Paul Barmettler, one of eight remaining Alp Sbrinz producers in the world, used a combination of milk from his own "Original Braunvieh" (brown cow) along with 140 more red and brown cows from 7 local farmers. Paul ages his cheese in a unique cellar at 99% humidity that develops an unusually beautiful rind and excellent flavors. Sbrinz is claimed to be the oldest European cheese. The Celtic ancestors of the Swiss were making cheese centuries before the birth of Christ.
At the other corner was Francis Percival who represents "Parmigiano Reggiano Brown Cow" from Valserena, the oldest dairy in the Parma district in Italy, and is one of the few farmsteads that all their milk comes exclusively from their herd made up solely of the rare Sola Bruna (brown) cow that produces milk particularly rich in butterfat. The cheesemaker at Valserena uses a bit more fat that gives the cheese a richer flavor and creamier texture.
Francis co-authored the finest cheese book "Reinventing the Wheel" explores what has been lost as raw-milk, single-farm cheeses have given way to the juggernaut of factory produc
