    Combo Special Pizza
    Jerry M.

    Excellent service ! Pizza was really really good! The top their pizzas off with tons of your choice toppings. No shortage with that. Really nice place with a balcony that over looks the street. Overall a dang good pace to snag a pie and a few beers!

    Interesting place, kind of small, I chose to do take out, but I did notice there was a second dining area on the roof with a balcony. Honestly I wasn't really that hungry when I walked in, but when I opened the door, I immediately smelled the pizza cooking in the back and already my mouth started watering. They have a sort of small menu with a sort of bland atmosphere, but they do have pretty decent staff. I called in my order before hand, and within five or ten minutes, the food was ready. (Of course, the place was empty at the time, so they weren't busy) This place was actually recommended to my by my friends and I'm glad they did! This was one of the best pizzas I have ever had!

    Last piece of garlic toast- 4 small pieces, lots of cheese, no flavor.

    Disappointing!!! Recommended by many... but when I went, I was not impressed. I ordered a few hours ahead, and showed up just before. My order wasn't ready, but didn't wait long. The staff was a little bit odd. The kids in the back were all goofing around. I got a medium Chicken Garlic pizza and an order of garlic toast. Garlic toast- no flavor, surely forgot the garlic! Just cheese. And not even hot when I got it. Asked for marinara to dip- eh. Pizza - tasted like mayo for sauce. Only had chicken and cheese. onions tossed on the top. I'll bet they forgot to put the onions on before they cooked it, so they threw them on after. They were raw! And over powered the rest of the pizza, which was flavorless without them. Had hoped for something amazing. :/

    Last week I stumbled upon La Prima because the girl at the front desk of El Bonita recommended it to me. They were one of only a few places open late in town, so I went in and enjoyed a glass of red while my pizza was being made. Because it was near closing, they were only offering pizza but I had my eye on the Big Family Salad. The extremely nice young man said he could go ahead and make it for me. Yay! We got to talking and I found out his name was Ernie, the son of the owners. He was so friendly and professional. It was very clear that he was proud of his work and really cared about the restaurant. I enjoyed talking to Ernie about Yelp and the restaurant biz. Anyway, when I got back to my motel room with the pizza - a combo with pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, onions and bell peppers - and salad, I was very pleasantly surprised. This was by far the best pizza I've ever had!! The crust was perfect: crispy but not too thin. It was cooked perfectly. And then the salad! Fresh iceberg lettuce, fresh tomatoes, beets, and a huge mound of cheddar cheese and perhaps the best Ranch dressing (aside from my homemade) that I've ever had! I wanted to drink it! The portion of the salad and dressing was very generous! My salad and pizza that night was my dinner then my lunch and dinner the next day. With my glass of wine, 2 Sprites, a large salad & large pizza, my bill was $50 before tip. I fully intended to return before leaving St Helena 5 days later. Well, on our last night in Napa, we just had to get that pizza one last time. This time, Ernie my young new friend, was not in, but his dad Aldo was. Not as chatty as his son, but very nice and efficient. This time we got a veggie pizza with white and green onions, mushrooms & black olives. A medium pizza cost only $22 before tip. I'm not kidding when I say that I would literally drive back to St. Helena from San Rafael just for their Big Family Salad and that excellent pizza! See you soon, Ernie! You are a gem and your parents must be proud of you!

    They gave us a cracker pizza that was burnt. No enjoyment one bite out of the slice .

    It was a cracker of a pizza. Burnt and one bite out of the slice the rest was the cracker no enjoyment.

    This is one of the better pizzas I've had in a long time. This place has many bad reviews but I definitely had no issues. They did indicate they didn't have delivery currently for various reasons but they were quick, friendly and the pizza was great.

    Italian restaurant located in St. Helena that feels like it's been around for quite some time…read more There's both indoor and outdoor seating and the space is pretty large. The service is attentive and friendly and there's a generally welcoming vibe when you walk through the door. The menu has a good variety that includes pasta and pizza dishes as well as some delicious antipasti / appetizers. I would love to come back and try more items on the menu, but I came here with my parents and we actually ate not too long prior to visiting. A few days before visiting the area, my brother showed me a video of how they make fresh mozzarella in house and I really, really wanted to try it. In addition to the fresh mozzarella dish, I got a glass of wine and we ordered some calamari. Watching them, serve the fresh mozzarella at the table with such a delight. The mozzarella dish and the calamari were both delicious. This area seems to be a slightly more busy part of town, but this place has a large lot and we found parking really easily. It was also on a weekday.

I've visited a couple of times with my family, and each visit reinforces why this spot is so beloved. The atmosphere is effortlessly inviting, especially the relaxing outdoor seating, which feels perfectly suited to the easy pace of Napa Valley. It's casual, comfortable, and ideal for lingering over a good meal with people you enjoy. The food consistently delivers. Their calamari is a favorite--crispy, well-seasoned, and reliably delicious--and the pizza never disappoints, with a satisfying balance of fresh toppings and a perfectly cooked crust. Everything tastes fresh, comforting, and simply yummy in the best way. Service deserves special mention: the employees are friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, making the experience feel warm and unrushed every time. Pizzeria Tra Vigne strikes a wonderful balance between quality food and relaxed dining, making it a place we're always happy to return to.

The atmosphere outside was lovely and much more enjoyable, as the dining room inside was surprisingly loud during our visit. The sourdough was good, though it definitely leaned heavily into the tangy side of sourdough. If you enjoy a strong, sour flavor profile, you'll likely love it. The miso Caesar was the dish I was most excited to try. The lettuce was fresh and crisp, and there were moments when the flavors came together beautifully. However, I found the dish somewhat inconsistent. Some bites were perfectly balanced, while others were overwhelmed by the miso, making the flavor profile a bit uneven throughout the salad. The fries were absolutely incredible and tasted homemade. They had a perfectly crispy exterior with a pillowy soft interior, creating the ideal texture in every bite. Crispy, flavorful, and perfectly executed, they were easily one of the highlights of the meal. The true stars of the evening, however, were the burger and the steak. Both were cooked to perfection and showcased the restaurant's ability to let high quality ingredients shine. The burger was juicy, flavorful, and expertly prepared. My only wish was that caramelized onions had been available, as I think they would have elevated the burger even further. Unfortunately they were unable to accommodate that request, but they were happy to provide raw onions on the side, which was appreciated. The steak was cooked exactly as ordered and packed with flavor. These were the dishes that stood out most to us and are what we would recommend ordering without hesitation. Overall, Charter Oak delivered some memorable dishes, particularly the burger, steak, and fries. Combined with the beautiful patio setting, it made for a very enjoyable Napa dining experience.

Is Thumper in the room with us? Did he hop off the plate and into the bushes? Well, that was a miss and the rest of the courses were underwhelming but more on that later. Opening in May 2024, Violetto is located inside Alila, an architecturally stunning 1907 mansion that's now a luxury adult-only resort and hotel. It was formerly Acacia House from celebrity chef Chris Cosentino. Indoor and outdoor patio seating. M E N U French-Italian inspired cuisine with a focus on seasonal, locally sourced ingredients. Four-course tasting menu ($105) or Eight-couse tasting menu ($175). If you're seated outside, you can also from the Salvia menu of a la carte items. Full bar.

We ordered two supplements that came next: * Pacific Oysters w/ seasonal accompaniments (Supplement-$22): https://tinyurl.com/yckban97 Quite flat but the oysters were smooth. * Potato Rösti & Caviar w/ horseradish crema, caviar, gold (Supplement-$38): https://tinyurl.com/yc5exk96 A bougie twist on a Swedish hashbrown, you can rarely go wrong with anything fried. Golden brown and crunchy but was hoping for more zest and briny flavors. (1) Smoked Beets w/ pickled asparagus, rouille: https://tinyurl.com/mr3fvz7r Diced beets with a cracker on top. Artsy but bland. More of an amuse than a course. (2) Rabbit Violetti w/ braised corvus rabbit, caraway ricotta, almond, sauce robert: https://tinyurl.com/uamp4z8z Sadly, their signature dish wasn't it and didn't look like previous pics. I know dishes change and are tweaked but I wasn't expecting ravioli with no rabbit. It seems like it was just incorporated into the savory sauce. (3) Liberty Farms Duck Breast w/ poached salsify, cordyceps mushroom, sumac hazelnut, duck bordelaise: https://tinyurl.com/3w6whnv3 While the skin was nicely rendered and crisp, the breast was overdone with an odd uneven cook on it. (4) Semifreddo w/ tenbrink farms stone fruit, olive oil, walnut puree: https://tinyurl.com/3w3bjpwd With 90 degree weather, I was looking forward to a frozen dessert but the semifreddo was flan-like with a cookie crust bottom. S E R V I C E Professional and welcoming. We had early dinner rezzies and there were only two other tables. I was surprised with the long lags after the beet course. A M B I A N C E Casual elegance vibes in the indoor dining room. Tranquil outdoor dining in the porch nestled around trees. P A R K I N G Valet only (complimentary). Overall, Violetto has been touted as a destination resto with Michelin star ambitions but seems like we visited on an off day. Not only was it a splurge-y, underwhelming meal, it required getting a burger afterwards.

A friendly reminder that they're very prompt with reservations. We thankfully didn't botch that, but factor in driving time. Staff: super friendly and accommodating. Ambiance: very, very intimate. Small and quaint. Also, the kitchen is open, so if you by chance sit in front of said kitchen, you will smell like food, like we did. My girls and I would normally opt for cocktails, but since we already did a tasting at Domaine Carneros, we needed to sober up a bit. There were a ton of CHP's so 'adulting'! They both got green tea, and I opted for an Americano. Two of us ordered the fazzoletti bolognese, and the other went for the spaghetti alle vongole. All 3 dishes came piping hot! Our bolognese was delicious. I wish I had asked for a side of bread b/c the sauce was good, and I think my friend wanted that for the vongole. Needless to say, we all inhaled our food (we needed carbs for the next tasting). Since we had time to spare, we opted to get dessert. My two friends ordered the affogato, and I opted for the strawberry panna cotta. I loved my panna cotta. It was creamy but not overwhelming, and the strawberries were the right amount of tart and sweetness. PS: their tap water had an aftertaste... it was weird. I ended up drinking my friend's hot water from her tea. Maybe it's RFK's no fluoride on water, but you can opt to get cocktails or not drink it. I will definitely visit again and prepare the wardrobe so that it doesn't end up smelling like food (my blazer had to be dry-cleaned to get the smell out). For the service and quality of food, it's definitely worth checking out, and the prices were reasonable for the area.

There was a bar in the middle of the room and table seating around the perimeter of the restaurant. The servers were very sweet and nice. A staff member told us that only the late dinner menu is available and handed us the menu to see if we wanted to still dine there. The menu was limited compared to their dinner menu but we wanted something to eat so we told the staff member that we were fine with what is served on the menu at the time and were seated right away. We started off with some alcoholic beverage. My wife really enjoyed her strawberry fields forever cocktail. She ended up ordering 2 more. I ordered negroni since I remembered I had it before but can't remember how it tastes. After taking a sip, I remembered why I don't order it. It was bitter which is how negroni is. I would have loved to try their old fashion but I was driving so only had the negroni and water. My wife and I each ordered the steak. I had my medium rare and my wife had her steak cooked medium. We both enjoy our steaks. It was very small but meat was extra tender and juicy. It had really good flavor from the cowboy butter. The fries were crispy and were also good. Our sons couldn't stop eating our fries. Both our sons each ordered the chicken tenders. The tenders didn't look dry and it came with 3 sauces that you can choose from (ketchup, ranch, or hot mustard). My kids opted for ketchup. They both enjoyed it but my youngest son didn't like the batter and took it off. For dessert we ordered the banana bread. The salt complemented very well with the caramel flavor and the ice cream. We devoured the dessert and would definitely order it again. In the end we really enjoy the atmosphere and the food and the staff. The food was pretty pricey for what we got on the late night dinner menu. We would definitely come back again to try their regular dinner menu when we are back in the area to compare the portion and pricing. If you are in the area and want a nice restaurant setting without having to dress up, I highly recommend this place. Just make sure to come earlier in the night to get their full dinner menu instead of the limited late night menu. On their website, dinner menu is served from 5pm-9pm and late night dinner menu is served from 9pm to close. They also have a brunch and lunch menu that starts at 10:30am and 11:30am and ends at 2pm.
