My friend and I Ubered an hour North to Napa for an afternoon away. We didn't plan much besides our…read morelunch. After we finished eating, I frantically researched (read: checked Yelp) for a winery to visit. Housley seemed to fit the bill--good reviews, dog-friendly (we had her dog with us), and what seemed to be a reasonable tasting price. We get there and we realize it's owned by Tamera Mowry (who is now Mowry-Housley!) There's a picture of her and her husband (a former baseball player) in the window. We're sort-of starstruck. Shortly after, her husband (and the winery's owner) Adam walks up with their daughter and asks us how we're doing. We continue to be starstruck. Service was wonderful. Seating was comfy. The views weren't the best (we were drinking on the sidewalk and there's a parklet too.) The 5 wines for $29 was not bad, but the size of the pours was lacking. The first pour was the smallest and then slowly they seemed to give us more (maybe they heard me!) Honestly, the pricier wines tasted better. I wish our wine tasting could've been free if we bought two bottles or something--I would've done that! Cute merch and store with goodies inside. Bathroom is clean. Would be back!

Really good for happy hour where sometimes you get more water or ice than booze Happy hour dishes, Cesar Salad $8 Short rib Poutine $14. Dang! The short rib full of rich beefy flavor and the fries nice crisp exterior Carpe Burger $14 perfectly cook patty juicy and full of beefy flavor. Signature Chicken Parmesan $15. Chicken was super tender and moist! Pasta noodles are super soft with slight al dente bite and the sauce is killer! Wow really nice portions for happy hour menu and prices are very reasonable.

The staff as I've mentioned before is unrivaled. Leslie, Kat, Kelly, and Ben make each visit special. It's more than just the magnificent wines and their knowledge. We really enjoy speaking with them and hearing their insights on the local area, plus just general life talk. We were pleased to meet a new member today, Alyssa, who will be replacing Ben as Tasting Manager. Ben is moving on to other things with AO. Alyssa was nice enough to come over and speak with us, and I feel she going to be a welcome addition to the Collective. For the first-time reader of one of my AO reviews, this location is incredible. Pefectly placed on the corner of the main drag. The heart of Downtown Napa for any of our visits. Excellent for relaxing and people watching. The room is gorgeous and maintained beautifully. Suitable for parties big or small. You really can't beat the wines. Delicious and wonderfully showcased by the staff. A great value in my opinion. Once again, thank you!

It was after they moved the tables inside and the kitchen was closed. There is also outdoor seating. You can sit at a table and a server comes around or you can also just order at the bar. They have 2 restrooms and they clear it out with a DJ and dance floor. They have hard alcohol in addition to wines and the wine bar. It's located kind of in the middle of buildings but there's plenty of street parking not too far away and some parking garages or parking lots that are walking distance. I really enjoyed their Haku Matata drink (vodka, hibiscus tea, lemon, and agave) my friends got the cadet sangria and paper plane and they all were good!

My last visit was years ago so returning again with my boyfriend felt fun a new. We arrived and used their elevator to the second floor. Afterwards, we were greeted by the hostess who escorted us to the bar and our wine expert Jamal. Jamal was so great! He was very knowledgeable about the pairing of specific wines and food. He was very fun and helpful! In our tasting, we had the 2023 white blend, Petite Syrah, Merlot, and Zinfandel. As someone who really loves reds, the 2023 white blend really stood out to me because I had never had a white blend before but it was also just really wonderful! I'm really glad we were able to revisit after all these years and that it is just as amazing now as it was then! Sn: In their restrooms, they have really cool wallpaper with some Bay Area legends like Mac Dre , E-40, and even Alice Waters!

With a wasabi and fennel infused vodka, it was too unique not to be curious about. Upon arriving and looking over the menu, SEVERAL cocktails stood out to me as intriguing to try. I started with the Wabi Sabi which was as interesting as it sounded. While I didn't pick up on fennel, you do pick up on the wasabi, but in the most subtle of ways. Think maybe lime/ginger sparkling water with just a hint of spice. Refreshing and different for sure. I also tried the Mucha Lucha w/ cilantro infused Siete Leguas Blanco, chorizo infused mezcal and cubes made of hot sauce that make the drink have a bit more of a kick as you allow them to melt. I did the HH chips and guac which was also accompanied with a tasty Chipotle sauce. Damn good actually. It'd be excellent served in a variety of ways. The deviled eggs aren't going to blow your mind, but I like that you get 4 different ones- and simply because I love eggs, I'd order them again. (They just wouldn't be a dish that brings me back). The bartender was great- helpful and attentive, even as more people began to filter in for an early afternoon. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Napa to check out some other menu options.

I stumbled upon Levendi through a recommendation from a coworker, and it has since become my…read moreabsolute favorite tasting room in Napa. My husband and I were able to call ahead and schedule a very last-minute tasting, and from the very beginning, the hospitality was exceptional. I work in the wine industry on the retail side in Texas, while my husband does not, so creating an experience that feels both educational and approachable for both of us is not always easy. Steve absolutely nailed it. He welcomed us warmly, shared thoughtful stories about the wines and the winery, and made the experience feel incredibly personal. The tasting room itself is beautiful and feels like a hidden gem in Napa. We especially loved learning about the wines and the woman winemaker behind Levendi. The tasting was stunning from start to finish. What truly sets Levendi apart, though, is the level of hospitality. Since our visit, I have referred many of my favorite clients to Levendi, and Steve consistently goes above and beyond for them. He bends over backwards to make sure my customers are taken care of, and every single person I've sent has come back raving about their experience. At this point, a trip to Napa would not feel complete without a stop at Levendi. I honestly cannot imagine Napa without Levendi -- or Steve. If it's your first visit, do yourself a favor and try the Stagecoach. You won't be sorry.
