    We did a cooking class corporate event in Sonoma with the Epicurean Connection and it was the…read morehighlight of our trip. We really appreciated the kind, attentive and thoughtful owners and staff who taught us how to make butter from heavy cream, make a personal pizza with fresh and unique toppings, and sent us off with Thomas Keller chocolates and homemade Epicurean fromage, which is all the rage in the region. We would definitely do another class here. Support small and local businesses, you won't regret it!

    So disappointed. I was so excited to do the cheesemaking experience and booked online. Showed up to…read morethe 3:30pm class 10 minutes early and the doors were locked and it looked like no one was inside the building. We tried calling the phone number multiple times and no one picked up. Also, knocked several times. Two other people arrived as well who tried knocking and calling to no avail. We waited until 3:45 until we gave up and left. After we left, we received an email saying we had been refunded and at the bottom of the receipt it said "We apologize as this order did not show up on our calendar until today. We look forward to hosting you in the future. Thank you, Sheana" (see attached screenshot). I think this is deeply unprofessional on so many levels. Even if the reservation had only shown up today on their calendar (despite us booking it several weeks prior) and they weren't prepared, they had all the time before 3pm to reach out via email or phonecall to say they couldn't make the class. They didn't even try reaching out and instead we received a refund after the scheduled class time. Lack of communication is such a bummer considering we set aside a couple hours for this and we were so excited. Also, this is located in Sonoma which means it's out of the way for people who are visiting Napa and its vineyards. That's typically not an issue but considering we had to drive out the way and we got cancelled on after we waited for them is where it is an issue. Deeply unprofessional situation and hope they improve on communication soon.

    After a long day of traveling, I arrived at my villa around 8 PM and asked the resort reception for…read moredinner recommendations. They suggested this restaurant located right inside the resort, and what a fantastic recommendation it turned out to be! This farm-to-table Italian restaurant truly impressed me with the quality of its food, drinks, and overall dining experience. As a vegetarian, I was delighted by the extensive selection of vegetarian and vegan options available. The staff and chef were incredibly helpful in guiding me through the menu. Taking the chef's recommendations, I ordered their freshly made truffle vegetarian pizza, a large Italian salad, crispy artichokes, rigatoni, truffle fries, and tiramisu for dessert. Every single dish was prepared to perfection and absolutely delicious. The ambiance is equally impressive. It's the perfect place to relax and spend quality time with friends and family. The outdoor seating area offers beautiful views, and the cozy fireplace creates a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes you want to stay for hours. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for exceptional food, great service, and a memorable dining experience. Definitely worth a visit!

I actually came here last year for a work trip and have been excited to come back to the restaurant. It did not disappoint! The house Sauvignon blanc was amazing. See you again next year!

Was very abrasive and short with his answers - we asked about a spicy fig jam. He couldn't even be bothered with his answers " what we have is what's out there" we understand that. It was the tone and the flippant response. Sadly its a tourist trap - and they can treat people anyway they want for there is someone else coming along - I'm local - I won't be back - eff that place - I do not recommend for their bad customer service. The other staff " appeared busy" picking things up and putting them back down then up again when you make eye contact. I won't shop here again. My friend bought a little jam anyway , yet commented she won't get it again- she will find somewhere else . Raspberry basil jam is what she bought .

    Been here twice while visiting Oxbow, and had a better experience dining in. On our recent visit…read more8/7, we were looking for truffle brie, and no cheese monger offered assistance in helping us find what we needed. Mind you the place was pretty empty on a Monday. We ended up buying 2 different truffle cheeses, only liked one of them. The other had an off putting after taste and texture that we did not enjoy. Would have appreciated talking to a cheese monger to help find the cheese I liked. Staff here seem more helpful when you're dining in.

Can be a bit spendy, bougie but worth it for the meat and deli alone. Staff is young but friendly enough. Had a neighbor tell me "if you're on a budget i wouldn't do ALL my shopping here but definitely hit the meat & deli! " its been a happy place for us since 2021. I try to visit often as i can, for convenience & support local. Pros: best meat butcher around Great wine , beer, cheese and produce Cons: everyday items are pricey. no bathrooms. Busy parking lot. Closes early around 7pm

They offer fresh produce, pantry items, raw meat and seafood on one side of the store and the opposite side they offer deli meats, fresh salads, sandwiches made to order, hot food and a variety of togo options. The market is not that big inside but it is very clean, beautifully organized and their employees are very nice. It makes the experience just a little more enjoyable. I haven't been here before and I originally came for the wild wonder drinks, but I found myself to try their fresh sourdough bread and fresh salads. Definitely a little more expensive than your typical grocery stores around town but it is worth the visit.

Luckily, we had parked downtown and we walked around and stumbled across Scala Osteria. We were greeted by the host at the front, unfortunately, we didn't have a reservation in advance, we would not able to get a table or booth for dining. The only option available was dining at the bar so we chose to dine at the bar. After being seated, we were given menus and water; we chose to dine family style and ordered a few entrees to share. The oysters were very good, the best that I've had, one of my favorites. The side order of fries were fresh and crispy and pairs well with the ketchup and cheese sauce, so delicious. The entrees: the halibut (very soft and delicious), the spaghetti with shrimp and clams (big portion and very delicious and fulfilling), and lastly, the lasagna (the meat was very dry, but the lasagna tasted very cheesy. Unfortunately, the lasagna was my least favorite). Overall, the ambiance is very cozy and inviting. I did enjoy my meal with the exception of the lasagna; I would be open to dining here again in the future and trying something new and also trying desert next time. Scala Osteria is a lovely gem in Napa; would definitely recommend to others!
