“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.“
“After spending most of the day wine tasting and venturing around the Napa Valley, I figure a sweet, creamy dessert would be the ideal treat after a hearty lunch. This takes us on a trip to the small community of Calistoga where I got to try out "Calistoga Creamery. Located directly on Lincoln Ave (Highway 29) and adjacent to Fair Way, this place has been serving up delicious ice cream dating back to 2017. Hours are also very generous as they're opened for business 7 days a week from 12:30-9:30pm. I arrived here during the afternoon of Saturday 4/6/2024 at around 3:50pm. Parking can be challenging but this area surprisingly has a ton of available street parking as well as "Cal Mart" which is a block away. Keep in mind that the this place has a very small interior with no seating. However, there is ample outdoor seating for the more comfortable days (weather permitting). All of their ice cream and frozen yogurt is organic and made fresh. Since I had eaten a fairly big lunch, I ended up going with one small scoop of their "Cookies & Cream"; priced at $5.00 (including tax). During my visit, it was absolutely packed with customers so it was tough to really look at their entire selection. And during my visit, there was only one employee that took the order, scooped your ice cream, and rung up the transaction. Kudos to her for doing a stellar job. With that said and done, "Calistoga Creamery" is an above average ice cream parlor with a nice variety to choose from. When I first entered, I noticed the aromatic scent of cinnamon as they actually use a small triangular waffle cone in that flavor to add to your ice cream cone or cup. Great location, excellent customer service, decent prices, and tasty ice cream is why I give this place an above average four star rating.“
“Chocolate is pretty solid. But I went in to buy ~$1000 worth (holiday gifts for staff) and they wouldn't even let me sample a single piece ("per policy no samples" I was told)...I don't think I've ever been to another chocolatier that has done that. Bought the chocolate anyway but won't be back to support the business given that policy.EDIT: Appreciate you guys reaching out and making things right. Thank you!“
“We had a fabulous experience at Bottega! The somm was delightful and led us to a beautiful wine. The brussel sprout salad is a must do. They had an antipasti item that was basically a donut with prosciutto and seasoned mascarpone that I would eat every day if I could! I ordered Spaghetti Alla Sophia Loren for my entree and wow! For what sounds like a very simple dish, it could not have been more flavorful and delicious! Bottega is officially my favorite restaurant in Napa valley.“
“Erosion is a one stop shop for treats for all ages. Great selection of high quality beer, wine, and ice cream. If you're looking for rare beer or aged beer, be sure to stop at the bottle shop in the back! Staff are very friendly, and the small plates were perfect to have with the drinks.“
