Amazing food in a beautiful setting. The scallops were amazing and the sauv blanc is an excellent compliment on a warm day. Our dog was able to come with us here.

We visited here back in September, but I am only now getting around to leaving my review. We had a wonderful time dining here! The food was amazing, our server was attentive and friendly, and the drinks were great. We sat outside and the weather was warm and once it got dark they had little table lamps for a nice glow. We walked around a little bit after dinner to go see the fountain that was lit up. They also had a great dessert menu and we loved the added option of cigars. We would definitely come back! I would also like to try their Bar + Bakery.

My sister & I decided to take a drive to Wine County last Mon around 4pm. I looked for a place to eat on Yelp, and found this gem. We sat outside near the huge fireplace, which became a bit of an issue especially since it was sunny that day. Neil came by & took our food/drink orders. My sister enjoyed her Latte, I just had water. We started out with their amazing hand pulled Mozzarella in Olive Oil with toasted bread $16 which Neil cut and served at the table. It was creamy and delicious just like Yelper's said. We shared a woodfired Wild Mushroom Pizza w/ Pancetta $28, which was wonderful and the crust was cooked perfectly chewy. I got the 1/2 Caesar salad $8.50 which was good, I'm just not a fan of salads made with whole romaine leaves, which require you to cut them yourself. My sister enjoyed her 1/2 Beet salad $9. For dessert Yelper's came through once again when it came to the Butterscotch panna cotta $14, as well as the Chocolate Mousse $14. Both were magical but the panna cotta just melts in your mouth, and went perfectly with the pink sea salt, and Carmel sauce on top. Neil did a wonderful job checking on us from time to time, and making us laugh, especially with the paper napkins I requested. He brought out 3-4 different napkins fanned out on a plate and then proceeded to tell me about each one LOL.

A trip through Napa Valley must certainly include a stop at Brasswood! From the outside, Brasswood looked like a trendy place for a meal, surrounded by lush green foliage. Inside, the ambiance said, "Yes, this is the place!" It was a beautiful afternoon, so patio dining was a must do! The friends that I was with had been to Brasswood on an earlier Napa excursion and took over ordering our appetizers, and I'm thrilled (and several pounds heavier) that they did! Delivered to our table was the most incredibly delicious mozzarella dish prepared infront of us. The mozzarella is made in house, slow cooked in just the right amount of olive oil, then topped on grilled buttered bread! Heaven on my plate! We paired our appetizers with Schramsberg sparkling wine and couldn't have had a better time! Shelley was our server, and she went way beyond for us. So attentive and cheerful! She's a must when we go back, and, well, we did......twice more in the next two days! Well done, Brasswood Bar + kitchen! Can't wait to return!

The service was great!!!! The drinks delightful!!! The food was just ok. It seems that this is a very good place for appetizers and drinks. Their 'signature' mozzarella appetizer was excellent! The grilled bread was grilled perfectly, lots of olive oil and garlic and the mozzarella was excellent. The fritto was ok. overcooked so it ended up being pretty heavy. The ribs special was unfortunately flavorless, even the sauce had no special flavor. The slaw was tasty. Scallops were bland as well.

The hand pulled mozzarella. That is all that needs to be said. If you come here you MUST order the hand pulled mozzarella. All the other food was really good, but I cannot say enough about the mozzarella. Would recommend with the house made pesto.

Incredible mozzarella appetizer and phenomenal pizzas. Other reviews did not mislead - an excellent place to grab dinner while in the valley.

This is a must visit if you're in the St. Helena area! Great wines, great food, great service, and the outdoor patio was to die for if you can sit outside! You have to get the fresh mozzarella with the tomatoes! I crave that dish every week and can't wait to go back!

Ordered the risotto duck and pork ribs. Food was good. The CabSauv wines go better with the food as compared to Pinot . Good ambience. Nothing to write home about.

Went to Brasswood Bar and Kitchen this past weekend and the food was delicious. We started with the mozzarella bruschetta. The char toasted crostini with extra virgin olive oil with the melted cheese on top was amazing! The flavorful meatball sat on a bed of polenta which was so tender and creamy, it made me want more. The Tagliatelle Short Rib Ragu was slow cooked for hours and full of flavors. I also try the Aromatizzato Wood Fired Pizza. which had a kick with a delicious light crust. The service was amazing and frequently refilled our water and was ready to take orders. The food came out faster than anticipated. It was a great experience!

I've never heard of this restaurant but as soon as I shared to my friends that I had reservations here, they told me to get the mozzarella bread. We did! The restaurant is only a part of the premises. There are also a bakery, a wine tasting section, and a boutique store. Beautiful setting. After lunch, we walked around and strolled the area. Our party had the window seat. Best seat in the house! Our waiter was friendly and very personable but he was only present when it was time to order. He rarely checked on us. I had to wave him down to refill our waters. We ordered: Housemade Mozzarella and bread: This appetizer was so simple yet so rich. Buttery, cheesy, amazing! I can see why everyone was telling us to order it. The cheese was hand sliced at the table and served on the buttery toasted bread. Warm Brussels Sprouts Salad: Decent. I wanted a vegetable to compliment our other dishes Roasted Cauliflower: Good, hearty simple vegetable Fritto Misto: The best part of this dish was the breaded and fried cauliflower and olives. What a great addition to the calamari and rock shrimp! Beef Tenderloin Carpaccio: The carpaccio was so thinly sliced I thought it was painted on the plate. Delicious! Herb Infused Pappardelle & Short Rib Sugo: Tender meat with fabulous flavors on top of perfectly cooked pasta. Why is it green? Duck Bolognese: It was good but it didn't taste like duck. The pasta was also green. Truffle Parmesan Fries - decent For Cocktails, I tried the Cliffhanger and the Fellini's Muse. Both good. Light and refreshing. For dessert, we shared the Butterscotch Panna Cotta and the Sticky Toffee Pudding. Both were very rich and delicious. Definitely good for sharing. Overall the food was good, service was okay. It was a decent experience.

We were here a few years back with Larry Tsai for a Moone Tsai tasting and we lived the food and services, today it was great too except we didn't have enough time to enjoy all the goodness. French soup was good, 4/5 Mozzarella thing 5/5 Brussels sprout salad 5/5 (from those that like that, not me) All and all a good stop!
