Founded in 1944, this is one of the first bars to receive a liquor license after prohibition. We had some time to kill before dinner so decided to step in for a drink. The initial narrow hallway belied its expansive two-level interior, which had pool tables, tvs, internet jukebox and a Photo Booth (of which we took advantage). Pleasant place for beers and simple cocktails.

The ambiance is decent-nothing fancy, but comfortable and clean. I ordered one of their salads. It was fresh and nicely presented, but overall just okay in terms of flavor. Nothing that really stood out, but it did the job. Service was friendly and low-key, which matched the vibe of the evening.

This place is so cool and definitely worth a stop when you're in Calistoga…read more We stopped by for a quick lunch and were immediately led into the distillery, which can only be described as impressive. Boasting high ceilings with exposed wood beams and a beautifully decorated bar area, the space oozes with rustic class and would make a great venue for any party or group gathering. We, however, came in for a sit down lunch with two kids and the small lounge seats and tables were not the best setup for a family meal. Which is the only thing keeping me from giving this place five stars. Similarly, the menu was also catered more to adults, with plenty of vegan options but very few items suitable for kids. That's not a knock on this place, just something to take note of. As a result, we opted to snack on a few items and the caviar and duck fat fries did not disappoint. The espresso martini with pumpkin foam was also excellent. But the really cool part about this place is the vintage train cars, each intricately decorated and offering their own dining/drinking experience. For example, one offers an oyster bar with underwater decor while another features a cowboy bar with real saddles as bar seats. The cleverness in design and attention to detail is impressive and is what makes this place special. I doubt there is a more interesting place to have lunch in Calistoga. I'm a fan of what they're doing here and would love to come back. Minus the kids of course.

This place was absolutely amazing. No notes!…read more I've been to several one star Michelin restaurants and this one was amazing. The food was delicious and the timing of the courses was well paced. The service was amazing, especially when they led us to the kitchen to meet the chef and have a sweet bite. I would highly recommend this restaurant. In fact, I did recommend this to a friend who was looking for Napa recommendations!

From the moment we arrived, the warmth, friendliness, and deep knowledge of the service staff made the evening feel truly special, and the pacing of the meal was impeccable as it never felt rushed or dragging, just a beautiful flow from course to course. Every single dish was spectacular, with each bite layered with flavor and intention, and the highlight of a night full of highlights was getting to tour the kitchen and even meet the Chef Garcia. At one point I mentioned a particularly delicious fish sauce martini I'd had elsewhere, and our server surprised me by bringing out a small pourer of fish sauce so I could customize my own tasting, which was such a thoughtful and memorable touch. You can really feel Chef Garcia's experience and talent in how he marries flavors, textures, temperatures, and heat; each course felt like a masterclass in balance and harmony. Given our experience, it wouldn't surprise me at all to see Auro awarded a second (or even third) star in the near future.

While perusing the local businesses, we discovered Lincoln Avenue Brewery tucked in a small alley. A bartender by the name of Liza warmly greeted us as we took a seat at the bar. Since we were not terribly hungry at the moment, we ordered the Pork Belly from the appetizer menu. While enjoying the delicious Pork Belly bites, we placed an order for their non-beer options (neither one of us are beer lovers). We ordered the Dust Bowl Brewery Strawberry Margarita seltzer, which is ironically a brewery that is located in close proximity to our home. As we were winding down, we ordered a round of ciders and the three meats-three sides platter for dinner. Our dinner reheated well in our room (we decided to order it as takeout to avoid eating such a messy meal in public) and was quite tasty - even though the macaroni and cheese could have used some seasoning. If you're looking for exceptional customer service, a healthy variety of brews, and delicious food - I recommend visiting Lincoln Avenue Brewery!

I was surprised that this place is 4 seasons affiliated. Im including a pic of their lackluster wannabe happy hour menu... If I am paying over 20$ for a burger I should be able to order it cooked to the temp I prefer. Why do they even have a "smash burger" on the menu in a place like this lol. The burger was two dry, well done patties and yea it's edible but a total rip-off. Oh but its fancy because they give you tiny personal sized condiment jars hahahaha! I will say that the 38$ chicken ceasar was kind of good although the chicken was strange, perhaps boiled and then tossed into a saute pan briefly? I just appreciated that it had fresh herbs but yea this place is a joke. Service started out good but then we were left waiting for plates to be cleared, the check, not much attentiveness from our waiter. We could not wait to get out of there, pretty much hated everything about the whole experience. If anything I am even more inspired to grow as much of my own food as possible and cook at home.
