We visit Columbus annually and love coming back to Napa! It never disappoints and food is always perfect! The dining room is very cute as well with the brick ovens.
I've honestly hesitated to write this review because this has been one of my family's favorite restaurants, and our experiences here have consistently been excellent--until now. We visited yesterday around 3 PM after seeing the new Mario movie. We didn't have a reservation, but seating wasn't an issue at that time. As always, the restaurant was clean, lively, and welcoming. The staff was very kind, and our waitress was attentive throughout our visit. We ordered many of our usual favorites, but my entrée--the braised short rib--was not quite up to the standard I've come to expect. While the meat itself was still tender, moist, and flavorful, the risotto was disappointing. It lacked its usual creamy texture and was noticeably too thick. Additionally, the dish was served with only carrots as the root vegetable, whereas in the past it has included a variety of vegetables that really elevated the overall flavor and presentation. I was especially disappointed because this was actually the first time I remembered to take a photo of my meal before digging in. I came in fully intending to finally leave a glowing five-star review based on all of our previous great experiences--but unfortunately, this visit didn't live up to that expectation. This was surprising, especially given how consistently great this dish--and the restaurant overall--has been during our previous visits. We've dined here at least five times this year and even celebrated our son's third birthday here, so this experience felt out of character. One difference worth noting is that we typically visit for dinner, and this was our first time coming during the afternoon. It's possible there may be differences in the kitchen or service during that time. We do plan to return, as we're hoping this was just an off day. This place has earned a lot of goodwill from us over time, but we wanted to share this experience in case it's helpful for others.
NAPA looks the part as do most places at Easton. And like most places at Easton, NAPA is delivers a fine/good experience but not great. The Smoky Chicken Sriracha pizza was a little too spicy. The "cream" part of sriracha cream sauce didn't really come through and left the dish unbalanced. I will say that my wife's Bacon and Brussels pizza was really good.
The Wood Fired Brie and French Onion soup are delicious! I chose Napa for my birthday dinner and it did not disappoint. Had a glass of Bordeaux Sauvignon Blanc and it was perfect. the server was great and the vibes are perfect for a date night, girls night, or celebrating an event. My husband had a pizza and it was good. I wouldn't say it was anything to write home about. The starters never disappoint. Besides the wood fired Brie (x2!), we also tried the marinara. It was very good as a light snack. My 9yo demolished the pork chop! He said it was a bit peppery but it was very tender. The Brussels sprout side was very good and simple.
First time at the Easton location and it did not disappoint! Our waiter was very attentive and full of recommendations. Definitely make a reservation, it was busy on a sunny Saturday. The decor is very pretty, definitely gives coastal California vibes. They have plenty of wine options and quite a few mocktails as well! I loved my Braised Short Ribs with Risotto, it was delicious! Highly recommend as a girls dinner, date night or family in town visiting spot!!
This place was to DIE FOR! We went in on Saturday morning with a large group over the holidays and we had the best brunch! We made a reservation and ended up at the wrong location, we called them right away and they were happy to hold our table for 30 extra minutes! Our bartender was Meghan and she was fantastic and made me the best mocktail! The Brussels and Brie were very savory and I highly recommend. We finished the meal with the brownie sundae and an espresso and it was definitely a wonderful holiday celebration!
Had such a phenomenal experience here last week for my first visit. This restaurant is so cute and the Christmas decorations were gorgeous. We loved the cozy atmosphere and great vibes. Our server was amazing, kicking myself for not catching his name but he was hilarious and was one of the best waiters we've had. The recommendations and service were excellent. They had a great selection of food and we really enjoyed the calamari for an appetizer, the beef short rib and chicken entrees. They also have great wine deals, etc. throughout the week so definitely check them out!
Went for happy hour. Beautiful decor and atmosphere. Service was great and the little food I had was amazing. Happy hours was a great deal and I can't wait to revisit. Parking is paid on street or a short walk to the garage.
First of all, this is such a cute restaurant. The interior is absolutely gorgeous and so homey and comforting. With the hanging lights over the bar, the mood lighting, and the laid back interior, it's a perfect spot for dinner. We were driving through Columbus and I'm so glad we decided to stop in! Our server was very attentive and quick. We wanted to share everything so he ensured that every item came out on two plates and was split. I know places do that, but sometimes they just bring you two plates. Here, they actually split it for us so the presentation was beautiful (note short rib!). The food was so good. The standout dish was definitely the short rib with a mascarpone risotto and root vegetables. This was melt in your mouth good. The Brie was tasty, a little sweet for my liking... and the arugula salad had a delicious lemon vinaigrette! If I'm ever back in Easton, I WILL be back here. Everything looked good when other servers walked by and I'm dying to try more of their wine flights. $12 for all of this is such a good deal!
Location: 4055 The Strand E, Easton Towne Center, Columbus Ohio Website: https://napakitchenandbar.com/locations-menus/easton/ Menu: see website Hours: see website Parking: plentiful, but prepare for a 5-10 minute walk Easton Towne Center has an ample supply of restaurants at nearly every price point. We were looking for a late lunch and this spot was at the top of our list based on Yelp! Reviews (thank you Yelpers!) This is a beautiful restaurant with a great menu. By happenstance, we stopped in just 10 minutes ahead of a thunderstorm; lucky and so happy we decided to eat inside instead of in their patio space. You enter and immediately get the West Coast Vineyard impression. The wine list is expectedly extensive. The menu features specialty items - wood-fired pizzas, salads, large plates but for our lunch today, we chose the cheese board and 2 salads, along with 2 iced teas. The cheeseboard was marvelous. 4 cheeses, a lovely combination of soft and firm selections served with almonds, apricot marmalade, and amazing flatbread crackers. Our favorite was the blueberry goat cheese, but the remaining 3 tied for a close second place tie. I unashamedly continued using the cheeses on the sliced pears in my salad. I know what you're thinking - 'genius move' and you may be right - but it was a delicious move for certain. The salads were perfectly portioned for an entree. We chose the Harvest Salmon and the Napa Greens (add grilled chicken). Each contained sliced pears and nuts and had a delightful honey mustard vinaigrette dressing. I had a slight case of FOMO when I took a look at that perfectly grilled salmon, but the grilled chicken was delicious, also. Great meal! Excellent service.
Location/restaurant; Located in Easton, plenty of parking for the finding just a matter of how far do you want to walk. This has to be one of the cutest places, all the little touches of décor was perfect. We came for a little pre-mothers day brunch and it did not disappoint. Food; Everything was tasty, the wood fired brie was to die for highly recommend. We did try the Truffle Mushroom Bruschetta, and while it sounded good think I was expecting something different. Finally ordered the Bacon and Brussels pizza, and holy delicious. I am a Chardonnay Lady, and the Black Stallion Chard was also yummy. Service; Our server Tamy was great and super friendly. 5 stars for that Bacon and Brussel pizza and Décor.
Food was really good but our server on the front patio pretty much ruined it for us. It took about 15 mins to place an order for drinks... another 15 mins to get our drinks. Other tables around us had great service. A table that was sat at same time as us had their food before we even had our drinks. We waited about another 15 mins after we were completely done for him to come back and ask if we wanted our check.
I really wanted to love this dish I got..got the burrito ravioli..the asparagus was hard and it was the part you dont eat!
This was my first time dining at NAPA, and it was an amazing experience all because of our server, Harvey! It's truly special when a server makes the effort to get to know everyone at the table, make jokes and join in on the laughs. I was visiting Columbus for the weekend, and throughout the rest of my stay after dinner, I can say this meal was a highlight! The atmosphere was beautiful, and we were seated right away! The cocktails were amazing, I had a strawberry fields. Now as for the short ribs, they melted in my mouth! They paired perfectly with the risotto, truly a great plate of food that felt like home! I have already recommended this place to friends visiting Columbus soon! read more

Napa Kitchen and Bar is a NEW hidden gem. Located off the strand at Easton with parking all around with a short walk and easy to find. Near J.Jill and Sephora. Make a reservation on open table or come on in and sit at the bar with no reservation. Plenty of seating; booths, low table top seating along with high top bar seating. Bathrooms are gender neutral and individual rooms. I met a friend for brunch on a Saturday. They serve brunch until 2 pm on Saturday and Sunday along with their lunch menu. They serve wine by the glass and bottle (great prices and selections!), a great alcohol free menu and hand crafted cocktails. I got the Cafe Martini and a Spiced Margarita. Both highly recommended. My friend got the alcohol free Piot Nior. It had the same taste and feel of a wine without the alcohol. We split the Arugula Salad and Prosciutto Arugula Pizza. The pizza was deliciously baked in the wood fired oven. Not too crispy or chewy. The right balance. The Prosciutto gave some salty savory notes with freshness of the arugula on top. The salad had a light dressing with some crunchy pistachios to give it some volume and flavor. Let me say, the service was amazing, attentive and kind. Prices were fair for the quality making this a place you could come often. read more

Grabbed a quick dinner here before a comedy show and I overall had a positive experience. I have dined at Napa Kitchen and Bar before, but never at the Easton location. The experience and the food were comparable to the other locations I've visited. For dinner I had the harvest salmon salad, and the salmon was delicious, if visiting I highly recommend that salad. Napa Kitchen and Bar is a higher-end casual restaurant that is a good happy hour spot, a great place to catch up with friends or for grabbing a quick bite to eat after shopping. read more

The most beautiful wine bar I have ever been to! I was an a little shopping trip and stumbled onto this fantastic spot. I didn't have a pizza but they have these 2 huge pizza ovens and I'm sure the pizza is wonderful. I had the Pinot noir wine and some ahi tuna crisps and they were really delicious. I finished my snack time off with their chocolate mousse and it was the best I have had. The service was phenomenal also. I can't find one thing I didn't love about this place. Even the lighting was beautiful. read more

First time going to NAPA Kitchen and Bar and I will definitely be back. The atmosphere was great for casual dining with friends. The services were outstanding and when they went out their way to ask if we wanted our pizza before our pasta blew my mind. The pizza was delicious i repeat it was delicious. I had gotten the sausage and peppers pizza, the sausage was amazing and well seasoned, the peppers were sweet but not too sweet which was great. I had also gotten the chicken DIAVOLO and I was amazed I repeat I was amazed. The pasta was 10/10, the sauce was out amazing. I couldn't stop eating especially the chicken, it was seasoned well and the grill tasted was a fine touch. Overall experience 10/10 read more

My experience at Napa was just alright. The space is gorgeous! Seriously very well decorated. The outside is cute, but kinda weird for the food and servers to have to enter and exit through the 1 main door. I understand that's how it was built when the old wood fired restaurant was there though, so there's nothing Napa could do. I saw on some other reviews at other locations, they had complimentary bread. I don't think they do at Easton or they don't anymore. To start, we ordered the mushroom bruschetta and the marinara dip. Both portions of these apps were pretty small for the price. Especially the bruschetta being four small pieces. We had lots of dip left over because you receive 5 small slices of toast. For my main I had the pork chop. The porkchop was cooked nicely but could've used some more seasoning. The rice pilaf was very undercooked. It was crunchy almost, signaling the rice was not cooked fully. The Brussel sprouts were fine. Some people like their a little on the burnt side, but these definitely weren't. My friend and I were cutting them and it took some power. Again, kind of undercooked. I felt like for my whole meal, I had to keep putting salt, cheese, or red pepper flakes on my plate to give it some flavor. To drink I had their strawberry cocktail with vodka, which was delicious. When I was ready for my next drink, we didn't have our drink menu anymore since they're quite large (the same size as the normal menu) and the tables are small. I asked for the house Sauvignon Blanc in a 9oz. When I got my check, that glass was $20. I was not very happy about that. I take the blame for not asking for a menu, but I was under the impression that the house wine is usually on the cheaper side. After tip, for two drinks, a pork chop and splitting the two apps four ways, my bill was $82. It just felt like a lot for a pretty mediocre experience. If I wanted to spend that much I would've gone to coppers hawk or Del Mar. Our server was super friendly and kind. I just don't think I'd be back. Easton has lots of restaurants and this one sadly missed the mark. read more

We came for happy hour and were very impressed! Food was delicious as well as the drinks. We consider ourselves picky about pizza and the pizza was delicious! Parmesan truffle fries were amazing too. Ambiance is very warm and cozy. The service was also great! My boyfriend has a food allergy and the bartender made sure to ask the kitchen about it. He was also very knowledgeable about the menu and gave us many suggestions for the next time we return! We will definitely be back soon! read more

The service was standard, not bad and not great. The atmosphere was nice, not too noisy. The food on the other hand was very bad....sorry I hate leaving reviews like this....way too salty and my stomach is turning....I had a dish with shrimp, rice and asparagus (don'trecall the name, it doesn't matter since I won't be returning.) The presentation itself wasn good but the shrimp was over cooked and way to nasty. I couldn't finish even half of the meal. Sorry...just bad. read more

Great service, tasty food with Gluten free options. My only complaint is that after eating a few slices of GF pizza, the pan it was cut and served on had a nonstick platter that was peeling off. A lot of these non stick coatings are very harmful if ingested, not to mention looks cheap for this level of restaurant. Mentioned to the server but he didn't seem remotely interested in what I was saying. read more
