Located in historic downtown Calistoga, House of Better is a unique outdoor restaurant with a cozy shack area, offering a Tex-Mex cuisine combined with American, Spanish, and Mexican bites. The menu features breakfast, brunch, small bites, all-day dishes, pies, and a full bar serving sangria, margaritas, beer, and espresso drinks. The outdoor area has Astroturf, Adirondack chairs, hanging lights, a large pizza oven, a swing, picnic tables, and heat lamps, creating a one-of-a-kind ambiance. The restaurant is open seven days a week from 8am-8pm, and until 9pm on Fridays and Saturdays. Popular dishes include the "Green Chile Burger" and "Grains + Grills Kale Salad w/Chicken". The bar offers an impressive mocktail menu, featuring creative drinks like "The Corazon", a beet-infused agave wine margarita, which has been praised for its amazing variety. While some have mentioned that one cashier was not very nice, most find the employees and service to be top-notch. The atmosphere is fun, with outdoor games like life-size chess and cornhole, making House of Better worth checking out for a memorable dining experience. Guests recommend trying the carrot harissa hummus, the hatch apple pie, and the fish tacos, along with the delicious soups and craft cocktails.
