    This place is a new favorite of mine. I think as I go to more and more Tiki Bars, I really gravitate to the ones that have more unique drinks. I make drinks at home. I've had a traditional Mai Tai a million of times. Do you have Tiki Drinks that are going to make me want to drive 45 minutes to you? On top of that, is your food worth it? I'm happy to say that the answer to both of these questions are yes. I've gone here 3 times within the last two weeks and one item that is a constant order is the Orange Chicken. Nowadays I think people are used to the classic super sweet Panda Express style Orange Chicken that you'll also see occasionally at your local Chinese food restaurant. Wilfred's Orange Chicken definitely is sweet but its not as sweet as what I used to and I'm not mad about it. There's a lot of depth with the sauce. I don't know if they are just putting more soy sauce or dark soy sauce...Maybe it's Oyster/Fish sauce? Theres definitely some kind of extra Umami going on. An added plus is that it pair perfectly with the tanginess of the Pineapple Fried Rice. For drinks my favorites have been the Manta Ray and the Sanfroyosko. The reason being is just because these have been the more unique ones that I've been really enjoying. The Manta Ray is more tropical than one might think. However it's tropical with a bit of funk. The combination of the Gin, Falernum, and Sauv Blanc Syrup really add to the complexity. The other drink I really like is the Sanfroyosko. If you are a Mai Tai lover, this is the one to try. The substitution of the typical tums with the Shochu, Sake and Pisco add even more of a Wine and floral flavor profile to the drink. On top of that the Sesame Orgeat gives and even more nuttier flavor than normal. But despite all these flavors going on, it still kinda tastes like a Mai Tai. The service has always been amazing. Every person who has served us has served us with a smile. But even despite how friendly they are, there still remains this sense of professionalism with their interactions. They check in at the perfect times. They ask how we are enjoying everything and share their favorite things to drink/eat. With the amazing tiki decor and island music, you really do feel like you are on an Island anytime you eat here.

    Stopped by this establishment with high hopes for the food and ambiance, the ambiance and service was exceptional but everything else not so great. Let me break down how everything faired The location for this spot is easily accessible and it does stick out from the other restaurants, so kudos points on location and presentation for the restaurant. So here is the sad part the food was not up to par. Here is everything we sampled Spam fries - breaded and deep fried, placed in a spam can for presentation, it was piping hot, slight crunch for anyone that has not sampled this before let us just say it is different good deep fried pickles - if I see this on the menu I try it wherever it is offered, the pickles did not have a snap, tasted old, dipping sauce on side was ok but the pickles sadly did not taste fresh natsubi - fancy musubi with spam just added furikake and drizzled with sauce on the smaller side but it was decent smash burger - made with two patties regular hamburger bun, not sure why but both patties were dry and overly burnt, less then a 3rd of the burger was finished by my son saying they messed this up bad, my daughter ordered same thing had less then a bite saying it was to burnt to eat wife had the teriyaki salmon plate, for the most part had a nice glaze and tasted good my kids who really don't like fish picked off my wifes plate both saying it was good we ordered several drinks to wash down all their dislikes lol for the kids non-alcoholic and for us alcoholic Manta Ray - several alcohols in this drink it was strong and good, definitely order this Ube-Bae-Baby - pineapple, coconut, ube this was made well I would order this again Banana Dreams - banana, grapefruit, lime, pineapple this was also flavorful I would order this again Pagan Ritual - i could taste the rum but not sure what else was added but I would also order this again of the 4 drinks the presentation of the manta ray and pagan ritual were really well done, put those on your instagram feed again for the food I would not eat here again but for the drinks, ambiance and liveliness of the place definitely a place you want to experience for yourself food ** pass on the food price $$$ service ***** top notch service, helpful staff, friendly staff ambiance ***** been to my share of tiki bars location for this one is spot on, it was open and very visible based on looks alone from other restaurants in the area

    Food: was amazing! Everything we ordered was good. To start we ordered the Pupu Sampler Platter which had chicken wings, coconut shrimp, smoked salmon Rangoon and veggie pot stickers. Between the two of us we finished everything! It was that good! For our main entree we got Creamy Salmon Poke Bowl and Tofu Poke bowl and they were both delicious. Each one had different toppings. For drinks, we had Uma Ube and Ube Bae Baby. They were the same drink except the Uma Ube had alcohol. And let me tell you I will get that drink again. It was nice and strong. Service: the staff were very nice. We came as they were getting ready to open so there was no line. Once we ordered the food and drinks came right away. Ambiance: I love the ambiance. Love the decor. It was giving Island Vibes and feels. And the music was nice too. Oh by the way they have an awesome second floor/rooftop lounge. We came on a Friday afternoon but I'd come back again on a Friday night to hang with some friends for delicious island drinks.

    Napa's lone tiki bar/restaurant. Obviously they have amazing tiki drinks you should try. For food both times I have got the different burgers they had and enjoyed the Smashburger the most. I also will have to say I loved the sweet potato fries and I usually don't like those.

    Pineapple Fried Rice

    I've been to Wilfred's Lounge a few times but this time I decided to try the food. Their drinks are amazing because they're not too sweet and they're made with premium ingredients. It's a tiki bar type of lounge which is always fun! Located in the heart of downtown Napa right along the river, the views are definitely worth it and no matter if you're on the rooftop, out on the porch or inside you'll have a great atmosphere. I almost just wanted to have drinks and appetizers but then our waitress recommended the Loco Moco which is only served on Sundays. It did not disappoint. 10/10. The quality of the meat, the mushroom gravy along with the runny egg on top of rice was perfect. We also tried the pineapple fried rice which surprised me because I'm not a big fan of fruit in rice but it totally worked. They do not skimp on flavor, each bite made me want more. Our drinks were the Watermelon Sugar (zero proof) and the Maximum Aloha. Both were delicious and paired well with our meal. Definitely check out Wilfred's Lounge when you're in Napa!

    We recently took a trip to napa valley and after wine tasting in the morning, we decided to check out the river front. Wilfred's is located right on the river and has two stories. We went to the bar and ordered some cocktails then took them upstairs to the patio. Felt like being at a disneyland resort restaurant with how decorated the place is. Very hawaii/tiki lounge. My husband and I absolutely loved it and our drinks were strong but tasty. Sadly the place was dead! Maybe lunch was a weird time to be there? Hope this place gets the business it deserves!

    Shanie! Amazing! If I could come here every week I would lol. We came on a Friday and it was busy but not super busy. I really enjoyed the ambiance. We were seated and our waitress, Shanie gave us some good recommendations. To start, I had a cocktail it was really good. My daughter I believe had the Uber Bae Baby, she reallly enjoyed it. We started with spam Mushbi 5 out of 5 my daughter could eat this over and over lol Vegetable potstickers 3 out of 5 (probably just my preference) Fried Plantains (not pictured) 3 out of 5 I probably wouldn't get these again. They are a little harder than I like and lacked salt. Entrees: Chicken Katsu (again not pictured) 5 out of 5. Definitely recommend Pineapple fried rice w/ chicken. 4 out of 5, really good just a few too many nuts. Overall my experience here was very positive, transported me back to Hawaii without taking a plane. The water views are beautiful on a sunny day. There is also a rooftop.

    As a tiki bar fan, I couldn't pass up checking this spot out. The drinks were fun, there was live music, and the patio overlooking the river made for a great atmosphere. The drinks are a little pricey, but they're on par with other tiki bars I've visited. Overall, a great vibe, and I'll definitely be back!

    Tammy A.

    Such a beautiful escape... with delicious food and amazing drinks. The restaurant is so beautiful and very immersive, especially the upstairs area. Lovely patio dining downstairs and balcony dining upstairs too! The bar area is absolutely stunning. Always well made and beautiful drinks!

    Popped in for lunch on a Saturday not too long after they opened for the day and was able to grab two seats at the bar. The place was exactly what you'd expect for a tiki inspired restaurant and we loved the decor and atmosphere. The bartender was very friendly and helped me pick the perfect drink l. I ended up having two because they were so good. The food was also very good. We only had a few appetizers (wings and natsubi) but the flavor was spectacular and we were very happy with our choices. Will absolutely visit again to try the other menu options I debated ordering. Also worth noting that they sell tiki mugs! Very cool option to take a little bit of the experience home with you.

    I love an island escape, no passport required. Napa has plenty of wine but, Wilfred's Lounge has the rum, tiki bar vibes, river views, tropical music and island inspired cocktails and cuisine. ‍ I dig the over the top tiki cocktails, whimsical decor, dog-friendly front patio and rooftop deck bar with river views. The Kalua Pork Sliders on Hawaiian Rolls, Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl and the Chicken Teriyaki Poke Bowl were winners. I liked that they include many different things IN the bowls but, I think the protein could have used more flavor. Downtown Napa, 967 First Street. Check them out for lunch, dinner or happy hour.

    While most people go to Napa for wine (which I did as well) I'll also try to find a good tiki bar anytime I go somewhere new. Ended up getting two cocktails here which both of them tasted great and both of my buddy's were very good too. They offer indoor and outdoor seating with a roof top section overlooking the river two which was very nice. They do have a server running around upstairs to grab you drinks and food which was very conviennent and she was very friendly. Great tiki theme on the main level. Will be going back if I'm ever in Napa again.

    Wilfred's is a unique break from wine in downtown Napa - their fun themed drinks and the ambiance and design of the building transport you to a tropical island.

    Ask the Community - Wilfred's Lounge

    Are there branded tiki mugs sold with Wilfred's Lounge on them?

    I own 3, the rum barrel, coconut, and Woody's. They all have "Wilfreds" on them. They have a variety of others which I believe say "Wilfreds" on the back. They should have them posted for sale on their website which for you to check out the pictures.

    Can my little chihuahua join us?

    I think it's possible since they have some outdoor dining! I suggest calling Wilfred's to find out for sure.

    Is there a happy hour menu?

    Aloha, we believe every hour is happy hour at Wilfred's Lounge, but Wilfred's Wednesday is a great day to visit and pick up a first edition hand-crafted mug, which may include special pricing on the cocktail. (So, Wednesday is your best bet!)

    Is there outdoor heated seating? Are there any gluten free options?

    Yes. They have outdoor seating on the first and second floor. The second floor does not have service at this time as they are looking to hire additional staff to support. Not sure of the gluten free options.

    Is the Coconut Shrimp from frozen or made fresh?

    Our coconut shrimp are hand made in house using jumbo white shrimp and are crusted in shredded coconut provided by Napa Nuts. Our environmental responsibility extends to all of our sourcing and waste reduction practices. We support local farmers,… 

    Is the restaurant 21 and over?

    No, only the bar seating is 21 and up.

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 used cash and credit card everywhere accept here where I used my debit card with the male bartender. My friends used their cards with the female bartenders that arrived later and had no issues/fraudulent transactions. I don't know how it happened as I still had my ATM card, but as I headed home that evening I got a fraud alert showing 7 transactions just under 400 made at an online thrift store. They attempted an 8th purchase which was declined by my bank and the only reason I was notified. The place wasn't packed (Maybe 6 other ppl outside my group) and no one else was close enough to scan or get my card information from me other than the male bartender. My bank told me after investigating it was initiated from a Napa IP address and no, I don't live in Napa and of course i didn't make these purchases. I'm filling out a police report as well in hopes this won't happen to anyone else and to ensure that there are consequences for the person that did this. Just made a great day into a foul experience.
