The ambiance of the restaurant was cozy, relaxed, and intimate while still feeling elevated. The menu for the day included: * Charred Corn Salad * arugula, pickled red onions, piquillo peppers garlic croutons, romesco * Grilled Flank Steak * roasted brocollini, rancho gordo pinquito beans spring onions, chimichurri * Point Reyes Toma * picholine tapenade, fruit bread * Silverado Trail Strawberry Panna Cotta * pistachio brittle, garden mint and we opted for one of the add ons: * Garlic Baked Gulf Shrimp * parsley, crispy breadcrumbs lemon butter Overall, everything tasted great and my favorite was the grilled flank steak and the strawberry panna cotta. Loved the hospitality and service, the pig designs (pigs are my favorite animal), and the beautiful location of the restaurant in Yountville (just across the Napa Valley Trail).

This one was a hard one to review, expectations and recommendations from friends were very high. We…read morecame here for my birthday dinner, seating was very quick, initial service was prompt and we were looking forward to the pre fixe menu. We ordered a couple drinks from the bar which were brought over to our table, our waiter went over the menu and how the pre fixe meal would proceed. For our starter, we had the Garden snap peas salad. The idea of fresh ingredients of carrots, frisee, arugula, and the Hobbs bacon was going to create a bounty of flavors, but fell short as our salad was doused heavily with dressing. The dressing completely overpowered the vegetables, did not compliment them as anticipated, leaving a very sour/bitter taste after every bite. Even the table next to us felt the dressing was overpowering. For our next course, we ordered the French onion dip and kettle chips appetizer, this was a solid pick! This appetizer was more than enough for two people, actually way too much for both of us, but enjoyed the dip very much. This is where the service began to slow down. We were almost done with our appetizer platter, needing some water refills and a fresh beverage, and felt like a very long time from when we received our appetizer until our waiter came back to us. For context, it had been almost an hour since we initially sat down, ate our salad and appetizer. I know this may be a slow paced meal, but felt overly long before we even got to our main course. For the main course, we had the pork chops. Well portioned for both of us, very tender, but lacked that nice grilled char we personally like. I assume the pork chops were sous vide and then finished lightly on the grill top to give the char and grill marks. Overall good, but not the wow we were anticipating for tonight's meal. Next up was the apple, crisp, dessert, which was OK and underwhelmed. We skipped the cheese and pretzel plate and asked them to put it in a to go box as we were already approaching two hours into our meal. Our experience may not be typical, but for a very expensive Friday night dinner, we felt it could've been spent elsewhere and would have had a better value overall.

Upon entering the restaurant, the ambience immediately took my breath away with their indoor decor (ofc right? It's a furniture brand LOL). Nathan, my host at the front greeted my husband & I with such enthusiasm, which made us felt very welcomed. He was super attentive to my reservation's notes (because I feel like most restaurants don't pay attention to the celebration notes on reservations sometimes) & congratulated us on our honeymoon! Nathan was also sweet enough to take photos for us before eating (because I didn't want to take pictures after being full). He knew them photo angles too, so thanks Nathan!!! Moving on to food, we were served by Cori, our super friendly server for the evening. She went over the menu very thoroughly & suggested a couple popular items & personal favorites which made it real easy for us to play cross elimination on the menu. We ended up with the bluefin toro carpaccio to start (soooo good & savory), branzino (simple ingredients that wasn't fishy), classic baked potato, and the broccolini as our pairings. The flavors all came together super well. We also had two drinks, banana split & a cookie for dessert. Oh, & I can't forget the nice warm bread & butter when we were waiting for our food. Thank you so much Cori & staff for the heartwarming service of the night!

Unfortunately, our experience on Memorial Day weekend was anything but. From the moment we arrived, the hostess set a tone that was unwelcoming and, frankly, rude. Rather than graciously managing what was clearly a staffing challenge, she repeatedly reminded us -- as if it were our problem to carry -- that they only had one server on the floor. On a Sunday of Memorial Day weekend. One of the busiest hospitality weekends of the year. I understand staffing is difficult in the industry. What I don't understand is how a restaurant at this price point, in this location, can justify charging premium prices, expecting 20%+ gratuity, and then making guests feel like an inconvenience for showing up. That is a management failure, not a guest failure. A great front-of-house professional absorbs operational stress and protects the guest experience. What we received was the opposite -- we were made to feel like a burden before we even sat down. This review has also been sent to corporate leadership. Guests deserve better, especially at these prices.

The French Laundry lives up to its reputation. It is not just a meal, it is a full scale culinary…read moreproduction. It's something you must experience once! Chef Thomas Keller is known for precision, discipline, and an almost obsessive attention to detail. His style is refined, technical, and rooted in classic French technique, elevated with modern creativity. Every course reflects that philosophy, clean flavors, flawless execution, and zero shortcuts. The restaurant holds three Michelin stars, the highest distinction, and has been considered one of the best restaurants in the world for many years. We secured a reservation for four at 7:00 PM, which in itself feels like an achievement. There are not many tables for two, so getting a reservation for a pair is extremely difficult. The best approach is to try for a reservation of four or more for the main dining room. Larger groups may find private dining easier to book. The evening runs long, over four hours. It is not rushed at all. By around the sixth course, I was already full, but the progression keeps you engaged. Each dish is small but rich, layered, and intentional. They add additional complimentary courses to the experience! The experience starts in the waiting area inside the restaurant with a welcome toast. Once seated, you are given personalized menus, which adds a thoughtful touch. At the end, they send you home with custom cookies and a chocolate bar, small details that reinforce the experience. For my birthday, they went further, surprising me with a bottle of sparkling wine engraved with my name. That level of personalization felt genuine. Logistics were straightforward. Parking was easy, we parked across the street. The dinner was prepaid through Tock, which simplifies the process. There are also optional add ons to the tasting menu, like truffle mac and cheese and wagyu beef. Tip is already included and you can add additional tip if you desire! They are also flexible with dietary needs, one person in our group was vegetarian, and the kitchen accommodated seamlessly without compromising quality. Overall, it is one of the best dining experiences of my life and I will definitely go back again. I would choose an earlier reservation next time so dinner does not run so late into the night. Everything is exceptional from start to finish. Cool fact: Governor Gavin Newsom was caught eating here during the COVID lockdowns! You will see many celebrities dining according to our hostess, which is no big deal for someone from Southern California!

They moved to the Bay Area 36…read moreYears ago and I can count on my two hands (6 times) they have had legitimate American style food that wasn't fast food, fast casual, or a chain restaurant. That and the fact that they have never been to Napa/Sonoma Area in their 36 years in America, meant that my brother and I had to plan a trip. My brother selected Mustards Grill. It was along the way to our reservation to Beringer and continently along St. Helena Highway. Despite hearing about Mustards being a staple within the Yountville area, it was so my first time trying it too. We had a reservation for 4 and after getting taken care of by the courteous host and being welcomed by our waitress, we were left with waters and the menu. To get the most of the experience, my brother thought we should all share several items. We shared their famous Pork Chops, Duck Confit, Ribs and Cornbread, Squash Risotto, and a side of Green Beans. We were offered fresh bread and butter prior to the arrival of our entrees and shortly after enjoying the soft pillowy bread, we were ready for more. My parents, being Cantonese and coming from the restaurant background, really care about having fresh and quality ingredients and letting the flavors shine - not letting sauces dictate the dish. Despite it being American fare, they quite enjoyed each dish and went back for additional helpings after giving a small initial taste of each item. Our visit to Mustards Grill ended up being a joyous meal where my parents got more exposure to the wonders of quality American cuisine as well as marked a good start to the day we were spending in wine county.

Would definitely order that again! 2) Tempura green beans - I fell in love with this dish when I had them at The Habit burger, and while they don't serve this with their magical ranch... They do serve it with a nice honey, mustard sauce. I was able to convert my girlfriends into enjoy this. 3) Truffle Fries - unfortunately this was a little bit of a letdown since we all love truffle! The fries were cooked perfectly, but we could not taste the truffle. 4) Fried Chicken - this was my entrée and it was quite good and more importantly very filling with a large portion size! I believe I had four pieces of chicken! The mashed potatoes were great, and the cheddar biscuit was pretty good though not mind blowing. 5) Steak Frites - this is what my girlfriend ordered and it was very delicious! If I had to order another entrée, it would be this one for sure. 6) Frosé - this was a little bit sweet for our liking, so not sure I would order it again 7) Spicy Margarita - I forget the official name of this, but it was pretty delicious and refreshing!
