Unfortunately, we ended up pretty disappointed. We had the tasting menu. The service was great, with attentive and friendly staff, but that's where the positives ended. The plates here lacked flavour. It felt like something was missing in almost every dish, even the dessert, which is definitely not what you'd expect in this type of high end restaurant. Without a doubt, it was a waste of money!

I recently had the pleasure of dining here for lunch, and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, I was blown away by the breathtaking views and inviting atmosphere. The food surpassed all expectations. Each dish was bursting with flavor and expertly prepared. From the appetizers to the dessert, every bite was a culinary delight. The staff at this place is incredible. Their professionalism and attention to detail made me feel like a valued guest. They were attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure that my dining experience was nothing short of perfect. Overall, my lunch was exceptional in every way. The combination of stunning views, delicious food, and impeccable service made me feel like I was on a vacation. I can't wait to return and enjoy another memorable meal.

Beautiful view. Gnocchi and duck hash were awesome. Pork belly and fish were good. Service was on point. Great experience.

Don't bother! Service was excellent and the view is amazing but the food was downright meh. We actually left food on the plates. So not worth the money.

It was a very special and unexpected experience for us. Ramone S., our server, was excellent. Very personable, knowledgeable and attentive in the best way. His team was charming and lovely and supported him and spoiled us flawlessly. truly hoping it's not a once in a lifetime opportunity.♥️ yes
We had the 3 course brunch experience. Food was very good. Some of our faves were the Smoked salmon appetizer, pork chop entree and key lime pie dessert. The view speaks for itself. David is a phenomenal host as was the rest of his team. It was my Mom's birthday and the staff made the experience special. Looking forward to going back....

We had a party of 8 for lunch, which can be challenging, but the service was phenomenal. Plates were placed simultaneously, drinks were refilled seamlessly, and the dish descriptions were some of the best I've ever heard. Not a single complaint from our fussy table, so... that's a big deal. The food was amazing and the exclusive Rutherford Sauvignon Blanc was better than anything we could have bought directly from the winery at the foot of the hill. Just really outstanding.

Impeccable terrace view. Service could not be improved upon, already at 10/10. Food is phenomenal. Go with the recommended wine pairing options or it will be overwhelming. Loved that place.
Celebrated my birthday here with my family and we had an amazing experience. Everything that we ordered was delicious and the service was on point.We’ll definitely be back for a special occasion in the future.

Auberge du Soliel never disappoints. It is pricey, but defiunitely worth it for special occasions. The view out over the Napa Valley is special. The service is top-notch. Everyone works together to provide a fantastic dining experience. The food is always great, and never boring. Everyone who can afford it should make the trip and have a great experience.

Truly an amazing experience, given the anticipation and our high expectations. Cuisine was artful, inventive and delicious with excellent flavors and texture. Wine list was well thought through and reasonably priced, at all quality levels. Staff was well trained, friendly and very professional. We felt at home. Auberge should be on your list, don't miss it.

This is just a beautiful wonderful place to go. Every time I go to the wine country, Auberge is a must.
We were so excited to bring our friends to a Michelin star restaurant because they had never been. What a disappointment. We arrived and they had fancy outhouses for bathrooms. This would have been no big deal if the meal was amazing, but... another disappointment. There were lobster shells in the soup (luckily, no chipped tooth) and those of us who ordered the beef main course enjoyed some of the most rubbery and flavorless meat we had ever eaten. We also asked the sommelier to do a wine pairing with our meal. It was good for the most part. Until, they poured the end of a bottle filled with a lot of sediment. We brought all these issues to the attention of the wait staff. Unfortunately, no one seemed to care. We understand that nothing can be perfect, nor did we expect perfection. But, when your customer communicates to you the issues they're experiencing, management should address it with the customer immediately. This did not happen. At a Michelin star restaurant, you expect an awareness and elevated experience. The reason for two stars as opposed to one... the other food was amazing. The wait service and bread service was spot on. At the end of the night, we had to make management aware of our poor experience, which was disappointing. Management should have come to us to make it right. That would have prevented the making of this review. . Overall, not worth $1600 for a party of 4. Find another restaurant. I am sad we had to post this, we gave them so many opportunities to make it right... they fell short.
Great food, amazing
