    Breakfast Gnocchi and French toast sticks
    Itzel M.

    My friend took me out for breakfast for my birthday and I'm glad we found this little spot. The kitchen is right next to the priest ranch tasting room, parking is behind the building. This is a counter service restaurant and has only a few tables inside. I ordered the Breakfast Gnocchi and French Toast Sticks to share. My friend got the Breakfast Burrito. Their glasses of wine are decently priced and they have food pairing suggestions which is nice. I went with a glass of Sauvignon Blac $12, delicious!

    Burger and fries

    We decided to have lunch here while walking around Yountville. They had an interesting-looking hamburger. Customers order at an inside counter. After ordering, customers receive a numbered stanchion to place on their table. Once prepared, the food is delivered to a customer's table. Seating was available in an outside courtyard where we sat. It was a nice, sunny but not too hot day. We decided to share a hamburger and fries. They were so kind as to separate the hamburger and fries into a plate for each of us. I also had a cup of their spicy tomato soup. It was very good. I would recommend this location. Sandwich shop

    Breakfast Gnocchi: Wild mushrooms, seasonal vegetables, fried eggs, pickled onion, calabrian chili aioli ($20)

    3.5 STARS You're hangry. So hangry you can hulk smash a pastry case. And, the person in front of you in line has hella questions, or places a huge order. It never fails right? First meal of the day, we arrived on Thursday around 12:30 pm HANGRY and to our surprise, The Kitchen at Priest Ranch was a mad house. There were several large groups - some waiting for their order, some deciding what to order. After ordering, we received our food in less than 15 minutes so props to the BOH that was hustling! Opening in November 2023, The Kitchen at Priest Ranch is the only Yountville wallet-friendly resto (that I could find). They're located next to Priest Ranch's tasting room. Takeout, indoor dining, and outdoor dining available. Dog-friendly in the front and back patio. Fast-casual service. Order, pay, and grab a number placard before seating yourself. Self-serve water. Bus your own table afterwards. M E N U New American Cuisine - breakfast served all day, salads, and sandwiches with suggested wine pairings. Secret menu (just ask). Nothing is over $20. F O O D * Gas Station Sandwich: Cheesy egg, house sausage, crispy potato, B&B pickles, seasonal jam, english muffin ($16): https://tinyurl.com/3yp6kzb8 Fav item of the three, the breakfast sandwich had great contrasting crispy soft textures and savory sweet flavors. Looking at older pics, it looks like the size of the egg and sausage have shrunk tho. * Breakfast Gnocchi: Wild mushrooms, seasonal vegetables, fried eggs, pickled onion, calabrian chili aioli ($20): https://tinyurl.com/2abv3929 - Requested sunny-side up eggs With the rave reviews, I thought this was just ok. Intense earthy flavor with the gnocchi on the dense side. The pickled onions really helped bring this dish to life. * Secret Menu: Chicken Caesar Salad Wrap ($18): https://tinyurl.com/5n7t9f4d I've been on a chicken caesar salad wrap kick lately so was most excited for this. Unfortunately, this rendition was a let down. While the chicken breast was perfectly cooked and moist, the spring mixed greens (not little gems or romaine lettuce) and breadcrumbs (no croutons) were soggy. It was missing the satisfying crisp and crunchy textures and punchy flavors of a ceasar salad. S E R V I C E Friendly and very fast given the mad rush. A M B I A N C E Modern casual with several tables inside with an open kitchen. Pleasant front patio and back patio seating. There's also rooftop seating with a firepit. Overall, maybe we visited on an off day but I found the food just decent but there's no denying the value. It beats paying $13.50 for a premade, microwaved breakfast sandwich at Mini Model Bakery up the block. If you're looking for "Yountville affordable" eats, The Kitchen at Priest Kitchen is where it's at!

    Service is like 'welcome home!' DJ took care of us and checked in often to make sure we were doing good! Amazing Amazing atmosphere, go sit rooftop for a view! The Chicago style italian beef was amazing + the Latke. Oh and a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc!

    We had a fantastic breakfast here while we were in Yountville. Ordering happens at the counter, right when you walk in (make sure to check the specials too, in addition to the standard menu), and they give you a number for your table. There's an ample amount of seating, and would say the food came out around 10-15 minutes after ordering, which wasn't bad. I ordered the two by four - two eggs however you like (over easy), bacon, latkes, sourdough toast, served with butter, and really tasty jam. My husband had the loaded latkes - which were also very good. Standout here for sure is the latkes - they're absolutely delicious! We will absolutely be back to try more of the menu!

    caesar salad
    Taylor W.

    The staff was beyond accommodating. I can't even thank them enough. We pulled up less than 30 minutes before closing, and they let us sit upstairs after they already cleaned up. Even brought all of our food upstairs for us, turned on the fire pit. I had the caesar salad and really enjoyed the wine. 10/10 will definitely be back for the service alone.

    Breakfast burrito with bacon
    Jenn H.

    First time having breakfast here and certainly won't be my last. It's a very small eatery with a few chairs inside and a little bar with a few seats outside. The service is always top notch! The breakfast burrito was delicious but what really made it was the tomato salsa! That stuff was so good I wanted it harder so I could take some to go!

    Close up of the burger and fries.
    Sally X.

    This place is cafeteria style. But the burger was amazing and so were the fries! A great deal too at $30 for the burger, fries and a glass of rose! The burger was perfectly charred and came with a delicious sauce. Fries were crispy done just right. Staff were friendly and helpful. I suggest going upstairs to the roof deck where you get a lovely view of the wineries and hills.

    Fried pickles.

    We attended a Kitchen Sync special event with music and The Kitchen's special event menu. It was a great evening.

    Chicago style Italian beef, $22

    Our first visit here! We came around 11am on a Friday. It was not yet busy since they just opened. It's fast casual style where you order at the counter, pay, and then you take your number to your table. There were some tables inside as well as outside. The day was absolutely stunning so we sat outside. We were hungry, but we're not starved, so we just ordered the two sandwiches. The food came out pretty quickly. The crispy chicken sandwich had or be mayonnaise, kimchi and perfectly fried chicken thigh on a sesame seed bun. The Chicago style Italian beef had sirloin beef, veggies and plenty of jus. It was delicious and messy! I would definitely come back for the crispy chicken sandwich! Note: the bathroom is outside the restaurant around the corner by the stairs. However, that bathroom was broken and the sign said to use the Priest Ranch tasting room's bathroom. The bathroom was very nice, and the tasting room looks very inviting!

    The Gas Station Sandwich - cheesy eggs, crispy potatoes, house made sausage, seasonal jam, B&B pickles on an English muffin (insanely good!)
    Ali R.

    With all the high-end, fancy restaurants in town, this was one of our favorite meals. Long after our meal was done, my husband has continued to talk about the "Best truffle fries" he's ever had! I recommend looking at the menu and reading the reviews before your visit. I would never have ordered the "Gas Station Sandwich" had I not seen photos and read the glowing reviews. It was insanely good! My husband ordered the specials for the day, the short rib sandwich and the truffle fries. He said his sandwich was good but said my Gas Station Sandwich was better. The truffle fries truly are the best we've ever had. Order at the counter, take your number with you and find a seat - I recommend the rooftop seating area! Within minutes, a server will bring your food to you. The super helpful guy at the register who gave us suggestions turned out to be the chef! What a great place. We would be regulars if we lived in Napa.

    Loaded Latke

    The Kitchen at Priest Ranch, Yountville, CA --A food-forward retreat built for quick bites, not big crowds. In a town where white tablecloths and world-class chefs compete for attention, The Kitchen at Priest Ranch carves its own path--low on ceremony, high on flavor. Designed with casual elegance and counter-service ease, this cozy spot offers a refreshing break from Yountville's usual pomp. The star of the show? The loaded latke. Crisped to perfection and unapologetically rich, it's comfort food done with quiet confidence. From breakfast gnocchi to double smash burgers, the menu leans short and bold--built for quick decisions and immediate satisfaction. Inside, the space is intimate and intentionally modest--best suited for couples or small groups. With wood panel-interior, rooftop lounge, and sun-soaked patios, The Kitchen feels more like a favorite local escape than a destination for events. It's not designed for large parties, but that's by design: here, the focus is on fast, focused, farm-forward fare, not fanfare. Service is relaxed but sharp, and everything--from the first bite to the final sip of local wine--revolves around one goal: simple, creative satisfaction. In a town of culinary giants, The Kitchen doesn't try to outshine--it simply delivers.

    Roof top dining here!
    Gilbert G.

    Food was hella good. Smash Burger, added an egg and bacon. Meat was flavorful, bun nice and soft. They smashed the burger nice and thin. Hella good. Service was cool. Nice play list while we ate. Definitely will come back again. Nice to be local.

    I've been coming here for over 5 years and it's still my favorite restaurant in Yountville…read more The service is beyond amazing and the way the manager Steven runs the place is truly unique in that he treats everyone like family. He goes to each and every table to say hi and check on his guests. It's rare for a restaurant manager to do that. His hospitality is unmatched and he is very humble. The staff is amazing - Michael, Jonathan, Eric's the bartenders there's two of them. It's not a kid friendly place but I brought my kids there a few weeks ago for my moms birthday but as they were winding down lunch service so we wouldn't disturb other patrons and they were beyond nice to me still. We stayed almost 3 hours outside and they were so accommodating with my kids . Again, very rare for a restaurant like this to be so kind and not annoyed with me for my kids being there. The raviolio is a dish I have to have at least every month if not every 2 weeks. Every dish is absolutely fantastic but the raviolio is out of this world and I've never been disappointed with that dish or any other dish. Was there tonight and still just blown away by the hospitality and the raviolio. It never gets old for me. Chef Alex does an amazing job and even after Michael Chiarello passed away, chef Alex continues to make every dish taste like you're in Italy. If I'm not in Italy, then it's Bottega for me!

The fry was done well, but I guess they forgot to season it? The flaky salt that barely hung on to the crispy skin felt like the only salt they put on the chicken. No idea why everyone loves it so much. The dessert also took 30 minutes to come out, after we told them we were in a rush and rather skip it. It was pudding, cold pudding. There's no way they could've made it in 30 minutes. So they just made us wait 30 minutes for them to take something out of the fridge to serve us. Def skip this spot

Between the black truffle egg salad sando and pork katsu sando, it was the former that left us wanting a second order. However, the truffle flavor that made it shine during the first visit was much more subdued on our second. Between the Big Eye Tuna and King Salmon Chirashi Bowl and Snake River flat iron steak bowl, the chirashi was the one we duped as the tuna and salmon was super fresh that it took self-control not to devour that entire bowl without saying a single word. The royal caviar bump was surprisingly the one thing that was underwhelming considering it is formerly a caviar bar. I probably should've just gotten the osetra with the uni toast instead. The Hokkaido uni toast is on par with the uni we had in Japan, sweet, creamy, and oh so delicious. With the addition of the uni toast, the bill does add up even if you're only there for HH but it was worth every penny.
