We were there to watch the World Cup soccer game (France vs England). Had big fun, staff was attentive and nice, beer and fries excellent. Price very reasonable. Thanks Marvin!

We stopped in this morning to watch the England vs France game. We didn't have a reservation but they made space for us unlike other spots that turn you away without a blink of the eye! The mimosas and fries were amazing! The ambience was fun and friendly! I wish we were going to be in town for the final match. Highly recommend making a reservation and checking this place out!

Was lucky enough to discover this gem on a work trip. Can't wait to go back! The space is really interesting. It's big enough that it doesn't feel chaotic and loud and manages to feel really warm and intimate Still. The staff are really welcoming and knowledgeable and make great recommendations and just very good at what they do. The food was perfect and I don't say that lightly! I had such a wonderful glass of wine and such a wonderful dinner. I can't wait to go back on my next trip.

A fun find on the Square. We enjoyed wine and delicious small bites at a table outside. The restaurant and upstairs bar (The Beacon) weren't open during the afternoon but looked very inviting.

Outstanding place to have wine tasting and food pairings. I recommend it highly. Delicious wines! Wonderfully prepared appetizers and food. Service and staff are five star plus, all the way. A must on the wine country towns tour. And if you like cocktails, this is the place. They rival the El Dorado and Swiss Hotel most definitely. Check out Taub Family Outpost. It’s at the historic plaza, you can’t miss it!

Wow!! Such a very cute place, like everywhere around sonoma ...what made it stand out was the staff.I sat at the bar and the lady (hope you find that red wine key) who waited on me, didn't get her name (my bad) was the greatest. She was not only extremely knowledgeable but super friendly and positive!! Highly recommended !!

First time visiting the restaurant and it did not disappoint. We (party of 3) all enjoyed our food and drinks. Great atmosphere! I wish there was just a "slight bit" more light but I get it - low lights set the mood. Our server Marvin was fantastic! He was polite, knowledgeable and very attentive but not over bearing. We ordered the chicken liver mousse as the appetizer and it was decadent. 2 of us ordered the halibut and one order the salmon. Ordered the Panna cotta for dessert. No complaints from anyone. We also ordered the focaccia - holy smokes that was amazing. I'm a local and will be back soon!

Although it opened during Covid 19 lockdowns, Taub Family Outpost is hitting its stride as the best new restaurant on the Plaza. My wife and I have been there three times with outstanding food and service every time. Located in an historic building on the corner of 1ST W and W Napa, my only complaints are acoustically the upstairs dining room is loud and devoid of sound deadening and the bar, The Speak Easy, is extremely dark, almost to the point of being dangerous - it is hard to see when you first enter, and there is a steep unlight stairway straight ahead (the bar is to the left). On the other hand the food is excellent. My favorites are the poached halibut and the finest duck breast with mushrooms I have had in some time. My wife's fav is the steak frites, with authentic Parisian style frites. Add on the the excellent table and bar service and you have a winner.

Super cute spot... totally IG photo worthy. Had Sunday Supper and was delighted with each course. Great cocktails too. Wonderful service attentive but not overly so. Definitely recommend.

You must make your way in and see the upper bar area. Amazing surprise when you walk through the swinging curved door to the upper speak easy bar. Detail to decor is an experience you need to see. Chase is the bartender you must see in the area.

Beautiful space that is very clean. I ordered their Chocolate Orange Coldbrew it was insane. As a regular coffee drinker, I thought I had tried it all. Great job Taub Family Outpost.

What an absolute gem of a restaurant! Our hostess was so welcoming and our server Monica made us feel right at home! I highly recommend their crudo, sea bass and steak frites! We followed up our dinner with Beacon and no regrets there! Romantic ambiance and drinks were outstanding as well!

Great food and nice service! I came to TFO for my birthday dinner. They surprised me with a smoked trout and roe amuse on crème fraîche and house-made challah bread. I ordered the day's special - local Marin miyagi oysters and oyster Rockefeller paired with Chablis from French. Oyster Rockefeller were delicious, very juicy and creamy! The wine they recommended is perfect for oyster I had the king salmon with charred corn polenta and cherry tomatoes for entrée. Salmon was cooked perfectly and skin was crispy. The freshness and sweetness from corn with the acid and olive oil from the cherry tomatoes popped in my mouth. Their sommelier recommended Bourgogne Pinot Noir to pair with it. A good pairing of wine does make food taste even better or the other way round, good food does make good wine shine.
