“Just picked up my lunch and the first sip to my long waited americano had a very bad after taste, in a figurative way because it was delicious. The lid you have doesn't fit the cup and as you can see on the picture, I had to come back to the office with a not very glamorous coffee stain on my blouse. Not mentioning the mess it left on my car's cup holder and the hassle carrying it because it didn't stop dripping. Not cool.I'm not sure if you'll keep being my favorite coffee place in Saint Helena because on top of this, you don't have the cherry almond scone anymore. The later is the worst.“
“I was able to visit a few weeks ago on a rainy day in Helena in between wine tastings. I ordered the strawberry lemonade and a breakfast sandwich. Seating was limited but I was able to snag a table. Would recommend to anyone visiting Napa valley.“
“We wanted to come by for the restaurant but it was closed so we ended up coming to the cafe instead. You walk through what looks like a gift shop to get through it and it's run by students. The menu is a bit limited but nice that you look at the display in order to see what they have instead of a traditional paper menu.We ended up ordering the chicken sandwich, farmers salad, flat bread, strawberry tart, and a pumpkin latte (seasonal). The sandwich and salad were both excellent but the flatbread was a bit thick and chewy and thought both the tart and latte were good. The tart shell was a bit tough to bite through but the flavor was good and the latte was just missing something, maybe some nutmeg or something that would have made it pop a bit more.“
“The pastries, coffee and other baked goods are so memorable. I don't know how someone could just get one thing! The staff had electric personalities and very quick, which got people moving. There was about five people ahead of me but I was served in less than five minutes it felt like. I got an oatmeal latte with plenty of pastries. This is a must go to bakery! There's an outside and indoor seating area. Plenty of room for friends, family, and your pets!“
“This place is a wonderful hidden gem filled with good food great service and relaxing environment! I ordered the veggie omelet and my favorite part was how fresh the vegetables tasted in the omelet, and it comes with a side - I chose the country potatoes and they reminded me of the breakfast potatoes my Nanna made me from scratch as a kid I loved this ! My husband just had pancakes but the pancakes are their own recipe from scratch and he enjoyed them. Service was for sure top tier , we were greeted at the door, and seating you get to choose your own place to sit and we were taken care of very quickly even though there was a nice amount of people in the restaurant. Everyone who checked on us throughout our meal had a good upbeat attitude we are likely to return tomorrow or the day after before heading home the food and service was THAT good !“
“Had the Smoked Salmon Crepe and Pistachio Rose Latte. Absolutely fantastic. Dough on the crepe was so good, great salmon, nice cream cheese, pickled onion, capers and sauce drizzle on top. Pistachio Latte was delicious, really nice flavors. Got to sample the Fig & Balsamic custard and will definitely be returning for that. This is a great spot. All the macarons look amazing, great flavors and so colorful. Coming back ASAP.Vegetarian options: Owner is vegetarian and has some delicious recipes on the menu. Great selection“
“After venturing around the Napa Valley for some wine tasting, I decided to visit the historic town of Calistoga to satisfy my sweet tooth. What better way than to have some delicious ice cream? This takes me to "Mis Raices", one of just a couple ice cream shops in this neck of the woods. Located directly on Lincoln Ave (and adjacent to Washington St.) in downtown Calistoga, this place underwent modifications and came back with a new name/owner in March 2023. Previous to that, it was once known as "Cafe San Marco". I came here during the afternoon of Saturday 4/6/24 at around 4:30pm. One thing I will say is that this place is very small and not even any seating for no more than 2 customers. However, as small as it is, they have a lot to offer in terms of selection. Looking at the menu board, there is quite a bit in the way of Italian sodas (over 25 syrups) and even Red Bull fusion drinks to give you that added energy. As far as the ice cream goes, there was at least a dozen varieties. After narrowing down my choices, I decided to go with a small cup of their "Pineapple Coconut" for $5.00. I will say that the ice cream was absolutely delicious, refreshing, and very creamy. It was set at the perfect chilled temperature and for the value, it was a great deal. I also wanted to add that the service was above average while this place had a quaint and cozy vibe to it. Hours are generous as they are opened for business Thursday through Tuesday while only being closed on Wednesday (as of 2024). With that said and done, I am giving "Mis Raices" a perfect five-star rating.“
“Everything is made FRESH in house. Quiche, cookies, sandwiches, tasty treats and fresh made espresso based coffees are all available at this wonderful little bakery. Counter-services is fast and friendly. You will find everything from French pastry to Mexican favorites can are served. No public restroom.Kid-friendliness: Kids can see options in the display cases. Great place for a treat.Wheelchair accessibility: On the first floor, entry door is wide but only street parking. No public restroom.“
“I’ve lived in the Valley for over 5 years and have to say the consistency of the place never changes. You will always get a great tasting product. It’s well worth its value and will always give you a smile. I highly recommend stopping if you haven’t had it before.“
“Great little restaurant in the valley. This place was recommended by several of our hosts at various tastings. Food was awesome. Everyone recommended we get the "fresh mozzarella thing" as an appetizer. It's not actually on the menu but we ordered and it was delicious. Also split a Tiramisu for desert, it was the best ever!“
