I had a great dinner here! We went in January. Good service. This is located in the Archer Hotel. There's nearby parking garages. We enjoyed everything we got, though the Caesar salad was lacking flavor but we could have just asked for more dressing. I liked the Parker house rolls, I LOVED the tartare, crudo, truffle fries, beet salad. The desserts were good and not too sweet. Elevated menu. The crudo was nuanced, tasted like it had Asian flavor influence.The food isn't basic at all. I would recommend this place and I'll definitely come back again!! read more

I swung back into Charlie Palmer's for a late, last-minute bite--because when you need something guaranteed delicious, this place never misses. And once again, it delivered. Juan was our server, and even at the tail end of his shift he was warm, attentive, and genuinely helpful. We grabbed a high-top by the bar, celebrating a spontaneous after-work birthday, and the setting could not have been better. The restaurant is stunning--soft lighting, elegant details, and that effortless date-night atmosphere that makes you want to linger. We went straight for the ribeye, cooked flawlessly to order, with honey-glazed carrots and truffle fries that were downright addictive. The cocktail, bright and lemon-kissed like a perfectly balanced lemon drop, tied the whole meal together. Charlie Palmer's remains one of my top steakhouse favorites--and nights like this are exactly why. read more

In the hotel lobby of the Archer hotel in downtown Napa. Seating is ample, both regular tables as well as 'high benches'. If you go on Friday or Saturday evenings, they have live music in the lobby. The service was attentive, but not too much. Brought the food out in waves to ensure they were nice and hot. The drinks were good as was the food, if you're staying at the Archer this is a pretty solid option for drinks and appetizers. We didn't have the steaks as we were looking for lighter fare. Maybe next time. read more

I came here for appetizers as we were waiting for a dinner reservation. I had a nice chilled glass of rosé with the deviled eggs and the shishito peppers. Appetizers were pretty tasty, nothing exceptional, but solid. The ambience was really nice, the lobby of the hotel was very swanky and comfortable and lots of different furniture. We started at the bar, but then finished our glass of wine on one of the sofas. read more

We ate two breakfasts and a large dinner at Charlie Palmer Steak recently. Breakfast was good. I had yogurt, granola and fruit with a Chai and a two days later the ricotta pancakes with green smoothie. Those were some of the best pancakes I've had in a restaurant. I love orange zest and mint with fruit, so that hit well. Dinner featured lovely shrimp cocktail, with a well flavored cocktail sauce. The Hamachi Crudo was fun to eat, light and refreshing. A rooftop garden supplies wonderful herbs and heirloom tomatoes. The refined chicken had an interesting and delightful presentation. The chocolate cake was beautiful and exactly how a steakhouse dessert should be. read more

I am not sure who's giving Charlie Palmer a bad review but I love it here. I love the bartenders. I love my Aji tacos. My deviled eggs are always so delicious and a happy hour is always so good. It's nice and quiet sometimes and sometimes it's busy and sociable, but I like it and that's what it's supposed to be. It's a very popular bar and people love it here. Not sure why has bad reviews. The food is good. The people are nice and they have amazing hotel rooms. Every time I come to Napa, I come here I come to the archer hotel. I'll come visit Charlie Palmer and I always get a mock cocktail and some food during their happy hour cause I love you. It's amazing. It's a nice vibe. read more

THE BEST HAPPY HOUR IN NAPA! Charlie Palmer Steak is located inside the Archer Hotel in downtown Napa. I love this hotel and I always stop by when I'm downtown. Charlie Palmer has a weekend happy hour! Yes, you heard that right! That's super rare to find, and not only that, the menu offerings are bomb! My boyfriend and I came here for Happy Hour on a Saturday after wine tasting. Their happy hour is 50% off the small plates menu. Our favorite thing were their lobster corndogs! OMG sooooo good! It's normally $23 but the HH price was $11.50! It came with 3 pieces and it was super delicious and tasty! We also got the Mac & Cheese Croquettes and my boyfriend got the Grilled Double-Stack Burger. Everything we ordered was A+! We both also had a glass of house red wine to go with our food. Our bellies were happy! I'll for sure be returning for Happy Hour! read more

Went to Charlie Palmer back in June to celebrate a family member's birthday. It was really a lovely experience! Service was top notch as servers were very attentive to our party! Food was amazing! Steaks were cooked to perfection, and the sauces provided really completed it. One person in our party only likes well done steaks and even that was tender! The sides and starters were delicious. Thinking about the meal we had still makes me mouth water! read more

Total: $156.60 Upside: Making the reservation was simple, and the restaurant staff were flexible--after checking into the hotel, we were able to adjust our time without issue. The atmosphere felt comfortable and matched the overall style of the Archer Hotel. The service stood out the most. Our server was great--polite, attentive, and professional without being overbearing, which made the meal feel even more enjoyable. The food was solid across the board. We ordered the catch of the week, a chopped salad, and macaroni and cheese, all prepared well and nicely presented. The standout moment, though, was dessert. The passion fruit cheesecake was unique and refreshing, while the chocolate cake offered a rich, classic finish. Another pleasant touch was the live entertainment in the hotel lobby, which added to the atmosphere before and after dinner. Downside: The menu itself felt somewhat limited, especially compared to what you might expect from a well-known steakhouse. While the dishes we tried were good, a few more options would have made the experience feel more complete. read more

RESTAURANT WEEK: Just meh for the price. Overcooked lobster and steak. Maybe because they were cooking so many for restaurant week. I loved the wine pairing although it wasn't explained what we were drinking but not sure it was worth the ADDED $25 price for the drink. Just meh in general. read more

Food was very over cooked and dry. One steak ordered rare plus came out well. The short rib was dry with no sauce to help the situation. Service timing was way off and it seemed like only one server was helping the entire room. She was great but the flow from the kitchen was way off. Not worth the price and better options in Napa valley for dinner. read more

Charlie Palmer Steak - Happy hour menu (July 2024) - Steakhouses Near Me - Napa, California

Well. I had reserved the day before for breakfast as it's a fancy steakhouse and I assumed they would have stellar breakfasts. We stood at an empty hostess stand for about 7 minutes and were seated in the corner. Waters brought out immediately with menus. However after that the service was very disappointing. Not sure if it's understaffed or they're just not aware of the tables they are serving. Our server never came back for refills or to check on us, I had to go to the drink bar to get is attention because he knew I shouldn't be there. The food looked lukewarm and it was. It tasted okay but not worth that experience. Also the table next to ours was never cleared. I felt like we were being shunned. read more

What a fantastic Filipino Heritage Month celebration at Charlie Palmer Steak Napa! This high-end steakhouse really impressed us with their creative take on Filipino cuisine. First impression: WOW! A surprise seafood tower loaded with fresh oysters, jumbo shrimp, and king crab, plus some amazing crispy pork belly bites to start. The real star was their Monday Napa Neighbor menu ($55) featuring Filipino-inspired dishes: - Ahi tuna kinilaw served in a coconut shell with caviar (beautiful presentation!) - Adobo glazed chicken with mushroom risotto (perfectly cooked) - Tropical halo-halo for dessert (authentic flavors with an upscale twist) Pro tip: Add the $25 wine pairings - incredible value for Napa! The service was impeccable - Chef Eddie Espiritu, Autumn Phelps and the F&B team at Charlie Palmer's Napa provided stellar hospitality throughout the evening. The outdoor dining was comfortable and warm thanks to heaters on this gorgeous October night. The restaurant had such a warm, community feeling with many local faces. Napa desperately needs more Filipino cuisine, and Charlie Palmer shows exactly why. Will definitely be back! read more

My boyfriend and I came in for Valentine's Day, it's our favorite restaurant. They make THE best steak and their sauces are all amazing. Not only is their food the best, but the whole experience: the staff, the manager, the atmosphere. They treated us so kind and warmly. The hotel staff accidentally made our reservation for the wrong day so when we showed up, the hostess didn't seem to want to help tbh, but the manager and servers were so accommodating and welcoming, despite being fully booked. They were so apologetic about the mix up and went above and beyond, but also did it seamlessly & gracefully. It just goes to show they really valued our experience. They truly made us feel like good friends. The vibe was super positive and they had live music in the lobby. The cuisine was divine, with very fresh ingredients. Amazing quality food and people at Charlie Palmer read more

We decided to try this place out on our first night in Napa. We got the tomahawk ribeye, chicken, lobster ravioli, and some side dishes. Everything tasted amazing but the lobster ravioli was the best amongst all the other great dishes. The ribeye was tender and cooked perfectly with a red wine sauce, and the oysters on the half shell was fresh and delicate. Overall a great experience read more

We had a premier experience on New Year's Eve at Charlie Palmer's Steakhouse. The staff, especially Hannah and Sophie, and including restaurant manager Mark Sawyer, were warm and friendly and made us feel like we were personal friends. The prix fixed dinner was probably the best dinner I've had in a very long time! There were things on the menu, like a celery root puree, (which I'd never heard of before) that tasted like the best mashed potatoes ever. The steak filet was swoon worthy, and large enough that I had 2 dinners out of it. The appetizers were yummy, and the chocolate hazelnut dessert was sinfully delicious! My husband liked our evening there so much he's vowed to come back every New Yeat's Eve, and this is a man who generally chooses ethnic holes-in-the wall as his dining out choice! read more

We had an amazing early Mother's Day dinner at Charlie Palmer today. The service and the ambiance were both amazing. Our meal was simply wonderful. We tried everything: house made rolls, baby beets salad, yellowfin tartare, fillet mignon, sides of sautéed mushrooms and glazed Brussels sprouts. Everything was delicious and perfectly cooked. read more

My girlfriend and I enjoyed a dinner here for Thanksgiving. The price was $95 per adult. The atmosphere itself was fantastic, although the tables for two were pretty small for everything that crowded the table. The service was pretty average, nothing out of the ordinary. The meal began with the butternut squash soup and chicory salad. The soup was delicious, it was my second time trying butternut squash soup, the first being less enjoyable. The crème fraiche really added to the flavor. The chicory salad was okay. I'd associate that rating more-so to my taste preferences rather than it actually being bad. The Parker Rolls with the whipped butter were delicious (not pictured), as was the mashed potatoes (not pictured) and the sourdough stuffing (not pictured) was a first for me, but again very good. Everything in terms of the main course and desserts were great, although I wished the brussel sprouts were served with pancetta. Overall a great Thanksgiving dinner, the price point is up for debate. read more

Charlie Palmer steak in Archer hotel in Napa is a great restaurant but I wouldn't call it a "steakhouse". As a local, I've been here several times over the last five years for both breakfast and dinner. The restaurant layout is comfortable, In fact pretty casual. The service here has always been top-notch, but there has been a few changes over the years and I understand the margins are narrow but the food quality has gone down. I particularly noticed that for the tomahawk steaks. We came for Christmas dinner where they also offered prime rib as part of the Christmas set menu ($85). What I found strange is the meat quality of the prime rib was the same as a tomahawk and ribeye. It was very lean with no flavor. It is unlike any other Tomahawks I've had here over the years. I can only conclude that the quality of the meat for the steaks has changed. There's no marbling , no flavor and I get seasoning is always to taste, but it was bland. Some other changes include a $45 corkage fee even for wines from Napa before it was no charge if the wine you brought was from Napa. There's also a fee for bread service. As far as ambience, if you're sitting to the right in the area of the lobby, the lights above are so bright that it just takes away from the ambience and the intimacy of dinner and makes it more like a cafeteria. The cream spinach was just too thick and soggy. Sadly, we cancelled our dinner plans for New Year's Eve dinner here because I don't trust the inconsistency of the food. I do hope they re-look their protein supply and bring back to greatness their steaks. I probably won't return. read more

Unfortunately breakfast was disappointing. Food came out before bar drinks despite there only being 2 other tables of people in the whole restaurant that morning. Portions were small for the price and espresso martinis were 20$ despite tasting like there was barely any liquor in them. Wouldn't do again. read more

Came here for a retirement dinner with a large party. We enjoyed warm, buttery bread while waiting for our food. I ordered the summer panzanella salad which was a delicious starter. It featured toasty croutons for a nice crunch and stone fruit (cherries and peaches) for some sweetness. The vinaigrette was was wonderfully mixed in; 10/10 recommended this starter dish. For my entree I had the scallops which were perfectly seared and paired nicely with a pea purée, asparagus spears, and snap peas. I heard the have a rooftop section which I will definitely come back to check out. read more

My wife and I stopped in for a quick bite before a show nearby. Service and wine selection was excellent. My wife's steak frites was cooked perfectly as ordered.

We had fun dining at Charlie Palmer, a steakhouse inside the Archer Hotel in downtown Napa. They offer patio and indoor seating, we chose to dine inside. The restaurant is open and spacious with an elegant, sophisticated atmosphere. We ordered their CP Manhattan & CP Old Fashioned , both were delicious! Started with the Lobster Ceviche & Pork Belly. Both were great, the Pork Belly was really good! We came here to try their 32oz Tomahawk steak and we were happy we did! Did not have to wait long after finishing our appetizers before our huge sizzling bone-in Ribeye steak arrived. The steak was flavorful, fatty, and melted in your mouth. Our sides were tasty too, we had creamed spinach, a baked potato and sides of peppercorn sauce for dipping. Everything was hot, fresh, and our waitress was very nice and attentive! Thank you CP! read more

Large group went to celebrate my birthday. Service was good, but the food made us sick. We thought another table ordered something that smelled weird, but after rewarming the left overs today we realized the smelly food was the tomahawk steaks. Multiple people in our large party were sick overnight after eating including my 7 year old son. For the price of how expensive our meal was this should have never been a possibility. I have called and left a voicemail with the restaurant but haven't heard back. read more

Very disappointing. Sat in the bar. Food and drinks were insanely overpriced. Crudo plate was $25 for barely a few vegetables and hummus.

Drinks bad, food worse, service indifferent. They don't care. read more

We decided to give Charlie Palmers Napa Neighbor menu a try (Mondays) and were greeted pleasantly on arrival. My friend had made reservations earlier but tonight didn't look too busy but better to be safe than wait. Our server was a delightful gentleman and explained the Neighborhood Menu to us. It's a 3 course meal consisting of salad, entree then dessert for $55. We both ordered the same except for dessert. The Napa Caesar Salad came out first and we both thought the dressing was underwhelming. We agreed if we came back to give whatever other salad a try. Then came out the Steak Frites and it was tasty and surprisingly a good amount of meat with yummy crispy fries. My friend got the Chocolate dessert and I got the Pistachio one. As we shared each other's dessert we both thought the Chocolate was good but very rich. The Pistachio dessert was flavorful and much lighter. Since I'm more partial to Pistachios I thought mine was a bit better. Our server suggested we take half a spoonful of each and that was a great call. Overall we enjoyed our meal, service and ambiance. We'll be back to try again. read more

Awful food, Bad service, and looks so generic inside it feels like a hotel lobby... because it is! I think Charlie Palmer has just stopped trying at this point his restaurant in healdsburg is also equally dated and just doesn't seem to have anything new or exciting going on, not only with the menu but also the decor and aesthetic of the establishment. The NY steak came out medium well - ordered med-rare. The potato gratin was raw in the middle. And the mashed potatoes were ok but mid for the price could have been hotter and creamer. The service was lack luster at best. For the prices this place really needs a face lift and some new chefs/ ambience read more

5 stars for the service! Soooo we celebrated a retirement / birthday here and it was interesting. The seating area is relatively small given this restaurant is in a small boutique - style hotel. There's literally only like 8 tables and then a bar area. So if your group exceeds 6 it may be hard to get in if they're booked. (Also, shoutout to our waitress, she was so kind/patient to our 18-month old who was a handful. We'd definitely order food in the lounge area so the kid can run around) So they market their sides as shareable- I don't think they are. Maybe if there's only 2 people but honestly you may have to order duplicates for a larger group. Of the appetizers I'd reorder the broccolini and keep it simple with the edge salad or lamb lollipops for appetizers. Skip the mac and cheese - it's bland Honestly I thought the steaks were okay. Nothing memorable. Of the steaks my ribeye tasted better than the Tomahawk which is weird. I liked the horseradish but it has a sweet taste read more

Suprise early V-day trip from hubby, had dinner here as part of our day. Limited dinner and cocktail menu, but we were able to pick a few things that we thought we would enjoy. We had the octopus for appertizer, and hubby didn't care for the texture. Ceasar salad, which our waiter kindly split for us before serving it. Nothing special here, tasted as if the dressing came out of a bottle, 1 small piece of Procuito which tasted old and greasy and a few croutons. For dinner hubby ordered the pork chop, which he really loved, said it was cooked to perfection. It came with roasted broccoli and apple cranberry chatney. I choose the 18oz rib eye w/ chimicuri sauce on the side and au gratin potatoes. The steak was absolutely delicious. It was like cutting into butter. It was season and cooked perfectly for my taste. We also liked the au gratin potatoes, very cheesy and full of flavor. I was very happy with the steak, sauce, and potatoes as well as hubby with the pork chop dinner plate. The rest was just kinda blah. I'm not sure we would return again due to limited options and only really liking the dinner plates vs. the balance of the meal as we prefer a full enjoyable experience, not just half. If you want an awesome rib eye or pork chop, stop in for that. Otherwise, maybe look for a place with more options, seems the area has a lot to choose from. read more
