Morimoto Asia was fantastic! We had great service. We all shared bites of our plates. Kung Pao Chicken, Orange Chicken, Black Pepper Steak, Lo Mein, and Fried Rice. It was all amazing and you get a lot of food for what you pay for.

Overall a very good experience. A couple fumbles with our soup coming out before our cocktails, and the place was not full at all. Dim Sum was just ok. Soup dumpling was great. Peking duck was wonderful as was the Kung Pow chicken. We will go back.

Very disappointed. Limited menu like during Covid. Ordered 6 dishes served family style. Out of the lobster pad Thai with no option for substitution. Spicy dishes served with lots of dried peppers but no spice especially on the chili chili chicken. Dim Sum was the best option. Drinks were good. Not high on the list to revisit.

First time there and we will definitely go back. The service (Richard) was the best, food amazing, and wonderful atmosphere. Nice to see a good pour for a glass of wine. Very unusual for Napa Valley. Make your reservation , you won't be disappointed. Heard about there after dinner party on Friday/ Saturday nights. Fun !

We had a delicious dining experience at Morimoto Asia Napa! We started with mouthwatering appetizers—Hot and Sour Soup and Spicy Chicken Wontons. Our main courses, the Angry Lobster Pad Thai and Chili Chili Crispy Chicken, were absolutely incredible, bursting with flavor and perfectly cooked.
Our server, Gabby, went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time, and we even got a chance to take a photo with her and the Executive Chef, Jave. The Asst. GM, Sarah Reyes made sure everything was spot on and took the photo!
If you're in Napa and have a love for Asian fusion, Morimoto Asia is a must-visit. Highly recommend!

Beautiful spot near the Napa River, but way over priced. They tell you the entrees are shareable for two people, but they are really just normal sized entrees. Overly salted. More dishes than not were out of balance and the cocktails were sub par. Our server was great, though. Took a long time to get one of our dishes so he took it off the bill even though we didn't complain. I will probably give it one more try just because I am a fan of Chef Marimoto and the setting is terrific.

We were celebrating a special occasion and love to sit beside each other, so we made reservations at the bar. We had a wonderful night, and our bartender (Miles) was perfect! It was a memorable night.

The duck tacos are our favorite! The lobster pad thai was amazing despite us having to remove the shells ourselves. (we're a little too impatient for that kind of effort). Loved the dim sum too.

The lunch menu is very limited. The quality is really good but too much sauce. We had red miso fish - too sweet and too much sauce. Orange chicken is good. The pork belly bao also had too much sauce, although the pork belly itself is tasty and perfectly cooked. We had a few more dishes, but all non-memorable. The quality of the ingredients are good, but over- powered by too much sauce and some ate just too sweet. I'd suggest if you want to offer a Chinese dish, then make it more authentically Chinese.
My family and I had the Edamame and Karaage Cod for appetizers. We followed that we a side of spicy green beans, the chili chili fried chicken, and the basil fried rice. All of these items were fresh, delicious, flavorful, and they were all served hot from the kitchen. The servers were perfectly attentive and explained all the dishes as they came out. Overall a great experience! They also surprised us with some birthday ice cream! We will be back here again.

Great service, flavorful food, big portions. Save room for some house made ice cream.
Very loud music and it just doesn't add to the ambiance. Food was ok not what we expected. There were only 2 tables besides us and we felt the food took so long to come out. Our waiter was nice but he was by himself besides the host who was also helping.

Friday night, 7:45p. Sat outside, it took 10 minutes for a server to come by but we didn't have drink menus, so it took another 15 to get the server back to take our order. The appetizers came out pretty quickly but the drinks and food were slow. The patio is loud, and they seem to be trying to drown out the Third Street bridge noise by turning up the music. Unfortunately, there was also music in the park across the street, so it was just terribly noisy. If you go, just be aware the service is fairly slow.

My wife and I went here earlier this evening just as they opened for dinner service, and overall we had a nice experience. The atmosphere sitting outside was excellent as was the music (80s pop and new wave). We had an amazing server as well. Food wise I would have to say it was a bit mixed, as I felt the chef’s flavor profile choices really a match for me. We ordered two appetizers, one of which I liked and the other that I didn’t (although my wife liked it). Then for the mains we ordered two dishes, one which was good (tofu vegetables) which had a really flavorful tofu and the other which again, I took one bite and was like ‘nope’. So overall I would say we will definitely come back, but for me this would be a restaurant where I have to be careful what I order.
