This place has classy ambiance, tons of space inside, and it was easy to get a table on a weeknight. They have a decent, pretty diverse food menu and tons of cocktails that look good/interesting; of course, there's no shortage of wines. The crab louie salad was pretty tasty, with tons of fresh crab, but nothing crazy/special other than that. The burger was also pretty decent, but similarly, not much special going on. We received good service and left content.

The food was exceptional, the service was attentive. The price was perfect. Not overly expensive just because it’s in Napa, but not cheap, because they are using fresh ingredients and making everything from scratch and it shows. There is layers of love in every dish. Get the Tres Leches dessert it’s phenomenal!

Our group had a total of 6 people. Everything that we ordered was great. The steaks were tender and cooked just they way we ordered them. Our server took care of us making sure that our drinks were alway full and cleared the table when plates were empty. Great place to go when in Napa.

Cute little niche place in downtown Napa, not too far from the main street of shopping and tasting. Food was good and value was on par with other places around.

Delicious food in a charming setting! Some of the best seafood pasta I’ve had in my life. The healthy fries were also a very nice and light appetizer. Will definitely be back!
