Restaurants in Calistoga

“Husband and I came for my birthday yesterday. We had such an amazing time. We always go to your restaurant when we go to Calistoga. Lucas was an amazing server very kind and attentive. Eric was also equally amazing and on top of his stuff making sure our water was always full. The drink sommelier was wonderful when she brought out our champagne. Would always recommend this place. It really is the best place to eat in Calistoga.”

“Great spot. Rooms are nicely designed.”

“Amazing service!! Thanks Stephanie!”

“They aren't kidding that this is a "local favorite". Everything we ordered was delicious and they were quite accommodating about me bringing my own, local wine. They also have an impressive business model worthy of support! I'm going back here next week! <3”

“I think Will is a great new addition to the team! Very gracious host who indulged our love of wine and pinball. As always, a great pleasure seeing the usual crew who have taken care of us since we started coming in! We appreciate you, from Tuula & Bryce!”

“Great tour with David. We learned so much! The wine selection was fabulous.”

“Amazing service and great food! We felt very welcomed and appreciated”

“Cole was awesome and loved the wine and of coarse the horses”

“Great atmosphere! And great story about how it came to be.”

“We had a great family dinner for our Taco Tuesday replacement whilst on vacation, really good comfort food - the chicken quesadilla was something else! We were early so it was quiet, and enjoyed great friendly and quick service.”

“The food was amazing. We got a variety of items and everything was sooo good. However, the server had a bit of an attitude which tainted the experience, which was supposed to be a celebratory meal for our group.”

“Beautiful property and amazing wine. Shelly hosted us and was so knowledgeable, friendly and patient. We joined the wine club - LOVED IT”

“Amazing wine and views. Knowledgeable staff. As someone who’s never really liked wine, Ezra did a great job getting me interested and teaching me the ropes. Now I’m a “cab head” according to him”

“Lots of mixed emotions on this one but the food was solid. You will pay allot for a good mean unfortunately the ambiance and service did not match the price on my visit.”

“On my trip to to Napa …this was my FAVORITE winery! They put so much care, quality, and time into the wine they produce. I definitely will be joining one of their wine clubs. Their old world and personal touch to wine making BLEW my mind!!! Wineries like this is why I love and prefer small vineyards. Thank you for making my visit EXTREMELY MEMORABLE! N”

“Tasty food, good drinks, very nice staff”

“Super el sitio para disfrutar de sus delicias”

“Amazing experience. So different from all the others, it was very much worth the trip. The caves are so cool and the tasting in the cave is very fun. Would love to come back”

“Awesome ice cream place, a life saver in Napa heat during summer. The ice-cream felt natural, homemade with no artificial flavours. We tried pistachio (amazing taste & texture), rose, cardamom & saffron (heavenly, a nearby cousin of Indian malai kulfi) and cookie chocolate (kids loved it) ice-creams. The servers were patient and polite. One can also taste the ice-cream before ordering one.”

“Awesome people, great times, cold beer!”

“Napa Valley’s new hidden gem is Robert’s Tropical Table located in a converted breezeway/parking lot adjacent to the Mount View Hotel right here in Calistoga. Robert has been known for a decade as one of the handful of magical mixologists in our Valley having a long bar run at Sol Bar (until they closed for remodel and Covid) and then Brasswood before launching his rendition of a Jamaican Beach Cafe. His Ocho Rios roots come alive with a delicious selection of jerk chicken, pork belly, and wings with an escovitch fish perhaps better than mine. And never to be missed are the festival dumplings and a perfect Dark and Stormy. Open DAILY when the music is playing and gates are ajar (3pm to 10pm).”

“Great wines, great hospitality, and our favorite place in the valley! We picnicked here and also really appreciated the ability to taste the fruit and examine the clusters at the sample planting rows out front.”

“I love Sarmentine’s new Calistoga location! As someone who works in Calistoga and loves a morning coffee or an afternoon pick me up it’s my new go to spot!! Amazing coffee and pastries.”

“Awesome wine tasting. Great views and setting. This is my second time coming up here to visit this winery. Their wines are spectacular, especially with the price and AVAs the wines come from.”

“An outstanding and exceptional visit to Knights Bridge. Well worth any detour if you're in the area. A meticulous tasting experience that showcases some of the best of the AVA and wider region.”

“Had the quiche and oh my so delish. LOVED IT the owner Paul came out and chatted with us. Customer service off the charts.”

“We had a fantastic experience at Jericho Canyon. The private tour was very reasonably priced and included an ATV tour with scenic views. Andrew was very attentive and knowledgeable and made the whole experience feel very personal. Andrew also reached out prior to the tour to provide recommendations for restaurants in Calistoga. We will definitely return next time we are in Napa!”

“Honestly it blew past our expectations, and the food came out quickly. The burger with added caramelized onions was phenomenal and unbelievably juicy…almost too juicy? and the salad greens were so crisp they practically shattered when you took a bite. Peak crispy fresh. The heirloom tomato dish rocked, and the chocolate crème brûlée was rich and decadent with an amazing crackly sugar shell. The kitchen did a great job balancing textures, acidity, and savory flavors across everything we tried. Definitely give this place a shot.”

“We recently visited Calistoga for a wine tasting getaway. We stumbled upon August Briggs Winery while walking around and explore the downtown strip, and WHAT A FIND! Matt was so much fun to talk to and explained the intricacies of sourcing for various wines and considerations for selecting grapes for his wines. Not only did we learn a ton, but the wines were FABULOUS! We brought several bottles home and my partner has a list of new questions to ask next time we visit!

Highly recommend!!”

“Special spot. Small and personal. Architectural excellence. Refined wines…(and bourbon!). This place rocks! Josh kept the whole scene cruising. Cheers 🍷 Vern”

“Wonderful food, friendly atmosphere, great service,”

“I was curious about Checkerboard Vineyards so my wife and I made an appointment to visit and tour the winery. Long story short, it was the highlight of our visit to the Napa Valley. Gary, our guide, walked us through the cave and gave us an overview of the property. He also provided a truly fantastic tasting experience with knowledgeable insights and great descriptions of the wines from each of the vineyards on the property. We really appreciated the singular attention during our visit along with great conversation. I highly recommend this winery tour and their wines!”

“Great atmosphere, service, & delicious, health conscious menu!!! All around awesome :-)))”

“Truss and Believe 😍 • We are staying at the BEAUTIFUL Four Seasons Napa Valley and caught lunch at their restaurant Truss. Highly recommend everything we have tried over the past week but I’ll narrow down some for this post 🤭. From the views overlooking the TWO pools to the villas scattered amongst actual grape vines, everything was perfection. For bites, we got the Salmon, Truffle Fries, Tuna Crudo & Mezzi Rigatoni. Chefs kiss on everything ordered 🤌🏻 But we can’t forget about the cocktails, riiiight?! We chose Pick Me Up (tweak espressotini), Fennel Wears Prada, Smokey the Pear and Spring is Here. All superb and full of flavor 😋 • If you ever get a chance to come to Napa Valley and stay at the Four Seasons Calistoga, don’t skip out on Truss. Truss and Believe me, you won’t regret any choice here 😍”

“I would be surprised if there is better ice cream somewhere in the Valley. This place is exceptional. So fresh, the flavors are delicious! You will absolutely love this spot, get ice cream here!”

“One of the most underrated wineries in the region.Great price point,high quality wines.Beautiful cave and phenomenal service.
❤️Nero d’ Avola, Sangiovese and Malbec ( regular and white)
ℹ️by appt only”

“When we come to Calistoga, we always stop here. The food is good, the atmosphere is great. We love that they have live music. When we were there, there was an excellent jazz guitarist.

I had a smoked salmon sandwich with salad and my husband had a burger and fries.

The beer selection is wide, and we're always able to find something we like.”

“Quality food, generous portions, relaxed atmosphere, attentive staff. Quite a surprise. It was our first time there. Definitely will return and recommend to our friends and family.”

“All of it 😋 🌯 was so big eat the rest at hotel the carnitas 🌮 😋👍 🐟 🌮 😋😋😋💓”

“These wines are remarkable in every vintage. The older chardonnays are similar to brilliant Mersaults. Truly great wines that are rare in a Napa Valley winery.”

“I love coming to Indian Springs. It’s really one of my favorite places. It’s relaxing, beautiful and well kept property. The rooms are lovely and the beds so comfortable! Unfortunately, they require a 2 night minimum. Even during the week. That’s a bummer but really if I could stay a week I would!”

“My wife and I visited Newton Napa Valley February 18, 2023. It was a private tasting hosted by a very knowledgeable, respectful and kind young man named Edgar Macias. Our entire experience, from greeting to our wine tasting with a splendid charcuterie, to our departure, was magnificent. My wife enjoyed the 2016 Mt. Veeder Cab and my favorite was the 2016 Spring Mountain Cab. We have been to Napa before but this experience at Newton was the best by far, for both of us. We learned so much from Edgar about the grape growing process, the vineyards and the climate for this batch of wine year 2016. I wanted to thank Mr. Macias for help making this tasting a memorable one. His hospitality is superior and we wish him the best! Newton makes a superb Chardonnay as well. If you are reading this review, I strongly recommend this vineyard/winery.”

“Came from Nebraska and were looking for a quiet place to enjoy a glass of wine and relax on Saturday. They had live music and the staff were amazing! Courtyard was gorgeous and shady.”

“Good times with good people.”

“As a local in Calistoga for over a decade, I have thoroughly enjoyed this restaurant on multiple occasions. There’s never been a wait time and the staff is always friendly and courteous. Having lived in Seattle for many years, Thai restaurants are a dime a dozen, and I was introduced to Drunken Noodles. I highly recommend that dish as well as their mango dessert is spectacular!”

“We had a wonderful dinner there. Great menu, good wine selection, wonderful service. We shared arancini balls for an appetizer, a fantastic Napa salad with candied walnuts, apples and blue cheese, and then a Thai chicken pizza. We would get each one of these items a second time! It is our understanding they reopened with a new menu in March 2025. We were here in June and the menu is great. Definitely would recommend Palisades Eatery.”

“first visit under new management and remodel. super service. Pizza was superb. the rail cars and distillery are incredible. this will always be a routine spot for us when we are visiting”

“I had a wonderful experience at Soo Yuan Restaurant. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared, with every dish showcasing great quality and attention to detail. The staff were welcoming, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout the meal. The atmosphere was clean, comfortable, and ideal for enjoying a relaxing dining experience. From start to finish, everything exceeded expectations. Highly recommended for anyone looking for delicious food and excellent service. Five stars!”

“Locals visiting out of curiosity. Food was very good. Poolside location was really nice even on a 95 degree day. Lots of shade. The only downside were the yellow jackets. We have them at our home at this time of year as well. The traps were hanging very close to the tables. One was right above our head. Hanging the yellow jacket traps away from the food/guest area might be a better solution. Other than that everything was great. We will recommend and return.”

“Wow this was such an amazing vineyard! We did the hilltop experience and upgraded our tasting to the Library Tasting and the Cab Sav tasting. Was fun to do something different and share both experiences. The gondola's were fun! Very clean and easy to use and a great addition to see Napa Valley. The team were all lovely, very friendly and welcoming and helpful. But I would add that they gave us the right amount of space to spend time chatting about the wines on our own. Loved the gift shop - great additions to the wine purchases. Highly recommend this as a stop whilst in Napa Valley!”

“Best food, best Martinis and Chad is the very best bartender in the land! Plus a goat visits sometimes. 🐐”

“Best medium bacon cheeseburger I've ever had. It's huge, about 3/4" thick on a Pan de Mie bun. Delicious!”

“Wonderful atmosphere and good food! The service is also wonderful!”

“Great service, great goody”

“Food and staff were amazing! I got the braised short rib and it was absolutely delicious. The presentation was lovely and every part of the meal was tasty. The beef was so tender and the reduction sauce was heavenly.

To make it even better, the chef came out to ask how it was. He braises it for 18 hours! Talk about a labor of love. Every bite showed that love for the dish too! Each of my companions tasted some and thought it was fantastic.”

“We had family gathering to celebrate parents anniversary, we arrived without reserving a spot at the facility. When we arrived the crew gave us excellent service and told us we could use their upstairs dining area for our gathering.”

“Its a great place with great food and good vibes. The BBQ is top-notch.”

“great mushroom n apple sausage pizzas and staff”

“This place was AMAZING! While visiting Napa Valley did the whole wine tasting experience, and was not disappointed. This was some of the tastiest wine I've ever had. Especially the pinot noir. Our server for wine tasting was exceptional. Moreover, the grounds are spectacular. There is a full chapel and tasting room and castle that make you feel like you are really in Tuscany. The grounds have animals including goats and emus. The beauty of this place is breathtaking. I will be dreaming about it.”
