In a valley known for wine, it's refreshing to have a space that caters to everyone, wine lovers,…read morebeer lovers, and even those who prefer non-alcoholic options. Erosion has truly created something special and inclusive for our community. One of my favorite things is the flexibility: you can grab a flight of wine, beer, OR ice cream (yes, ice cream flights!) to share or enjoy on your own. There's literally something for every mood, every palate, and every friend you bring with you. Their events are always a blast, line dancing nights, trivia, seasonal pop-ups... it brings so much life to St. Helena. I love that they host these on a monthly basis because it gives locals something fun to look forward to. The space is always clean, inviting, and has such a good vibe. The staff is consistently friendly, helpful, and genuinely makes you feel at home. Erosion is small, family-owned, and family-run, and you can feel that level of care and pride in everything they do. And let's talk about the food, I'm obsessed with the wraps and the paninis, and the queso frijole is a must. Simple, delicious, and perfect with a beer or a glass of wine. Erosion has truly become a go-to spot for locals and visitors alike. It's relaxed, fun, unique, and exactly what St. Helena needed. If you haven't stopped by yet, do it, you'll understand why this place has such a loyal following.

We ordered the mozzarella al minuto (grilled crostini with hand pulled mozzarella), Caesar Piadina, Nonna spaghetti with meatballs, and spinach ravioli. We also got the Passion Bull drink. Everything tasted yummy and seasoned well. The mozzarella minuto was the only dish we probably wouldn't order again. The crostini was nice but the mozzarella didn't taste special and just tasted rubbery. Would have preferred the crostini with some burrata or whipped ricotta cheese. We went during a weekday for lunch and were able to seated right away. Staff were very nice. But we didn't get the appetizer or our drinks until after our main dishes came. We actually had to ask the server about them. I know they weren't too busy so not sure why the order was thrown off. Even though there were some missteps, we will be sure to go again the next time we are in the Napa area.

The menu has a good variety that includes pasta and pizza dishes as well as some delicious antipasti / appetizers. I would love to come back and try more items on the menu, but I came here with my parents and we actually ate not too long prior to visiting. A few days before visiting the area, my brother showed me a video of how they make fresh mozzarella in house and I really, really wanted to try it. In addition to the fresh mozzarella dish, I got a glass of wine and we ordered some calamari. Watching them, serve the fresh mozzarella at the table with such a delight. The mozzarella dish and the calamari were both delicious. This area seems to be a slightly more busy part of town, but this place has a large lot and we found parking really easily. It was also on a weekday.

They also have a lovely outside seating area, which seems to the hot spot. It was exactly how all the people described it and the overall atmosphere was amazing with that giant open flaming cooking area at the end and in the middle. I had the perfect seat to watch it and the amazing Chef Marshall preparing food. A lovely young lady ( am am embarrassed that I did not write down names) came by and got us started with menus, silverware and a drink order. Then our amazing waiter (same thing on the name) came over to explain more. Both my wife and I already knew that we were having the burger. (Pretty rare and special for her to have a burger.) Not much to say other than they were AMAZING! Two patties (rather large) on a bun with special sauce and cheese. These weren't just good, they were really, really good. Cooked perfectly (medium) and served with the most amazing hand cut fries. This place definately set a new bar... and it's really high! Through the whole meal, I got to watch Chef Marshall at the grill. Lunch and a show, how perfect was this day?

The most ridiculous thing I've ever heard that they don't want to make their customers happy and simply take a salad to the back and chop it for them Not only that, but the attitude of both the Chef and the manager were as if they were too good to cut some lettuce and there was no apology or anything to try and make us happy... I simply returned the salad and did not eat it... The menu here is very odd as well a weird assortment of stuff and not a lot to choose from... The atmosphere is mediocre at best... Be careful if you're choosing to go here because it took a long time to drive here and almost $60 in an Uber and it was not worth the drive. My recommendation to them... Buy a nice sharp knife so you can cut salad for people

While enjoying the delicious Pork Belly bites, we placed an order for their non-beer options (neither one of us are beer lovers). We ordered the Dust Bowl Brewery Strawberry Margarita seltzer, which is ironically a brewery that is located in close proximity to our home. As we were winding down, we ordered a round of ciders and the three meats-three sides platter for dinner. Our dinner reheated well in our room (we decided to order it as takeout to avoid eating such a messy meal in public) and was quite tasty - even though the macaroni and cheese could have used some seasoning.

BIRTHDAY LUNCH AFTER WINE TASTING…read more One week ago last Saturday my sister, her husband, and my relatives took me out for wine tasting. After the first winery we came to Calistoga Inn for lunch before going to the second winery. My sister stated we had four hours before dinner therefore we could not have a heavy lunch. Our server recommended three items he enjoyed eating: French dip sandwich, Reuben sandwich, or fungi pizza. I looked at the pictures of the French dip and Reuben from Calistoga Inn. After seeing those pictures I decided not to get the French dip or Reuben but the fungi. The size of the pizza is pretty big for one person to eat. The crust isn't thick. Even though the crust is thin there is crunch when you take bite. I can say portions weren't skimpy as the mushrooms covered most of the entire pizza. Since dinner was approaching, I didn't finish the whole pizza. Looking back I probably ordered the wrong dish. As I drank more than 8 glasses of wine from the first winery I should have ordered food that would've absorbed the alcohol better - maybe a dish with meat like carne pizza. I also should've trusted my instinct by ordering the Calistoga Burger because I'm a firm believer a dish with a name of the restaurant could be its specialty. Overall I had a nice lunch at Calistoga Inn in between the two wineries and before dinner.

This place is a DUMP! It is run by whack-o nut jobs and it is FILTHY!!! Maybe they just want "locals" and that is fine with me because as a money spending "tourist" (who just happens to pass through St Helena about once a month) I wont be back!!! We came to this place with a large group as an "after party" for a rehearsal diner. My first impression was "EWW" but then I didn't pick it, I was with a group. After the first round I approached the bar and ordered a second round for about 8 of the people in our party. In the middle of making our water downed overpriced cocktails but before delivering them the bartender informed me that we were "cut off". When I asked him "why" (several times) he would not give me an answer! I talked to him, the doorman (who came over and said something to the bartender while he was making the drinks), and finally the owner (at least I was lead to believe it was the owner - a REAL nut job). None of them would say anything except that we were cut off...no one was drunk and we were all just dancing to the DJ tunes. The people in our party are all professionals, were dressed nicely, were behaving appropriately, and were completely under control...what a joke of a "Bar" All I wanted was an answer and a chance to understand what the perceived problem was...what I got was disrespect and rudeness. Needless to say, we wont be back. read more

Here I am a Bay Area native about to turn 33, wondering how was I going to face a new birthday in a few days...out of nowhere my buddies from basketball kidnapped me to celebrate in the Napa Valley for a few days. As much as I appreciate the thought I kept wondering how the hell was i going to watch my 49ers and Giants as they seek their glory on TV. My bros didn't let me down. Blindfolded they took me to a great bar in St. Helena, called Ana's Cantina, just as the Giants were to start a game that they had on one of their what? 6 TVs. Not only did I feel at home but the fun spirtit of the place with the DJ and his great sounds, including music I recognized from Brazil, made me want to stay after the game and try my luck with the dance floor. The girls were there, that's for sure, and the DJ was dancing along with them until me and my buddies helped him out. We stayed that night til it closed. I made new friends, tried some great drinks, including a kamekaze and a red-headed slut that are still sensed by my palate. It was a great time and I will certainly return as often as I can.Obviiously I will recommend Ana's to friends as well. Go Niners! read more

This is G.O.M. "Grumpy Old Man" from out of town- Mclean Va. I stopped by to find place that had a secured line to do some work for my clients in the Stock market. Ana's had that and much more. The throw back atmosphere and the music were perfect. The bar has been owned by a wonderful family since 1987. I did not meet the husband & wife proprietors however their daughter Roxana Maria was was direct & to the point- what you saw is what you got!!! Roxana was an absolute delight to get to know and to watch her do her job!!! She made one if not the best Bloody Mary I have had called "Rock on Ana" !!!

Bartender Micheal Rosalie has zero sensitivity training and is a liability to anyone working or drinking there. Sitting at bar minding my own business, having a water and watching the band was nice, then a patroon bought me a beer. The next thing Mike grabs the beer out of my hand, twisted my wrist, and starting pulling me towards the door. He was probably mad and tweaked out upset because he dropped a small bag of white powder on the bar a minute earlier, with his handshake transfer to another patron. He is obviously a drug dealer on crack, and hopefully owner Anna Footman will figure out what dirt bag, low life bartender she has working for her. The are much better bars in Calistoga, don't waste your time with a crack head low life tweaked out drug dealer who may snap on anyone at anytime. read more

Ana's is a great Bar. Opened 365 to carter to locals and visitors alike. A family run independent business that has successfully operated for years in one of the most expensive places to do business in the Country.

If you like an old fashioned local hang out where you never know who you might meet this is the place. Remember this is a real 21 or older BAR.

Not only is this place a total shit hole, the clientele are among Saint Helenas "finest". This place does not serve food which especially sucks because there isn't anything open within 30 miles late at night. Watch out for the bar-tender Miguel, he's a true a-hole. He will let you know if you forget to tip, believe me. I don't know the other bar-tenders name but he is also a SOB. And don't even think about having a decent game of billiards here, the cues hit the walls on every shot. God I hate this place, and you will too. Hope somebody takes this place over and makes the necessary changes, because this town needs a good place to drink and eat late at night. read more

One star is way too much for this place. I grew up in St.Helena and this business is a horrible representation of the community. Ana , the owner has an awful reputation as an owner and her relationships with all the other businesses in town is nill. Her children all work there (Mike is mentioned) he has been in and out of jail all his life (fact). Anyway, the place is filthy, the staff rude, people do drugs in the bathroom and the beer warm . Find another option don't waste your time and money. The bars in Mexico would be embarrassed to be compared to this dump. Good luck paying that mortgage Ana, you paid about $1 million too much for that building ! Hah read more

Shopping day with the girls and stopped in Ana's to use the restroom. Bartender (Melissa and lip piercings galore), told us we needed to make a purchase in order to use the restroom. I get that she is probably asked that 100 times a day, but when we said "Or you can be really nice and just let us use it" she said "Or, you can just F*$@ off!" Took a double take to see if that's really what she said and she repeated "Yes, I said you can just F*$@ off". Classy. Not sure why this place is in the middle of a tourist town when they clearly hate tourists. Can't believe they can stay in business treating people this way. read more

Such a disappointment. We were looking for a local bar stop in Napa and instead got completely ripped off.

My issue is not that he enforced a rule; it is the complete inconsistency in how that rule is applied. He was also rude, condescending, and treated me as though I were stupid while I tried to explain that this had never been an issue there before. Had I known the policy would suddenly be enforced differently, I would have come prepared. Honestly, it sounds like I did not miss much. According to friends who were already inside, the atmosphere that night was not great anyway. Treating a returning customer this way, especially on such an important night, was the final straw. My 35 guests and I left and took our business elsewhere, where the service was excellent and we ended up having a lovely night. I will not be returning to Sussie's and would not recommend it.

As a Hyatt member was able to use points instead of selling my Audi to pay for a one night stay. So the next morning, where to go? After a quick breakfast we ended up at The Saint for cocktails. At first we didn't think it was open since it was early and no one was in there. Upon entry it is clear this isn't a dive bar. A few high tops as you enter to the left and a nice long bar with and table against the right wall. This building takes you back to 1890 or so when it was originally a bank. I wonder how many times it was robbed at gun point and the bad boys rode off on horses with the cash??? Many of the light fixtures are original from the same time. It has a bank vault as every good bank should. But since this is a bar the vault is more a private area with seating. Since we just had a late breakfast we only had drinks. Not sure but I'm pretty sure Andrea had a Lemon Drop and I know for sure I had tequila and lime. While we were there a few high tops filled up with Chardonnay drinking ladies getting away from the family (kids and partners) for the day. And a couple of different couples being tourist.

He made us some great drinks (lemon drop for me, tequila & lime for my partner - we're such one trick ponies), and later showed us around the place. There is a lot of history in the building. It used to be a bank back in the day (and by 'back in the day' I mean the 1800's), and it still has the original vault. Beyond the vault door, there is a speakeasy-style dining room that would be absolutely perfect for a private event. We didn't try any food this time, they only had light bites on offer at that time of the day, but the dinner menu looks promising, and I look forward to having a full meal here upon our next visit. Downtown St. Helena is a bit out of the way of our usual stops in Napa, but I would make a special trip for this spot again.

After scouring Google I stumbled upon Truss at the four seasons and was able to make a last minute reservation just in time for sunset. The four seasons alone is divine but this restaurant was remarkable. The views are 10/10 exactly what you would envision when thinking of Napa. It's technically in the city of Calistoga and worthy of a trip. The restaurant offered amazing service and vibes as well. Relatively unknown and a true gem!

Service was cordial and kind and warm without being stuffy. The meal was well paced. Cocktails were delicious and beautiful. Portions were generous. Every bite and component of their new American fusion menu was delicious. Desserts were great too, without being too rich and heavy. Their local Chardonnay was very enjoyable. Refreshing and with the signature Chardonnay buttery ness but without being too Oakey. Worth a visit for lovely lunch. No question.

It has one Michelin Star and is located at the same place as the hotel which was granted three Michelin Keys (meaning it's an extraordinary stay). I made reservations as soon as they were open for the date that I wanted which I recommend. As I got closer to the date I checked the website again and all the reservations were booked. The property has amazing panoramic views of the vineyards from the outdoor patio as well as terraces on the other floors. There was both indoor and outdoor seating but I recommend making a reservation outside to enjoy the views during your meal. We started a meal with a half glass each of their champagne but it cost $66 which I thought was significantly overpriced. At that point I would've just ordered a bottle of wine for about the same price. We ordered the six course chef's tasting menu ($245 per person) and also added the ossetra caviar full set ($225). The caviar came with crème fraiche, soft bread, and other accompaniments and was great. For the tasting menu, I particularly liked the sautéed diver scallop, wolfe ranch quail, and roasted local lamb. Even though it didn't look like a lot of food, most of the courses were meat-heavy and we left pretty satisfied at the end. The service was great, the views were amazing, and we were given some personal touches/messages for our special occasion. It's definitely a luxurious experience and the price matches that, but this is a wonderful place to celebrate any special occasion.

With excitement in her eyes, she described the delicious tropical-inspired cocktails with good vibes to match. Since I had an upcoming birthday, I bookmarked the restaurant so that we would remember to visit it during our stay in Calistoga. After arriving in Calistoga on a Friday evening, my wife and I thought that it would be appropriate to have dinner and drinks at Robert's. Upon walking through the entrance of the restaurant, we observed a nice backyard-style layout with televisions tuned to the NBA playoffs, patrons enjoying glasses of wine, and a DJ playing smooth yacht rock tunes. A friendly employee informed us that it was open seating, so we sat ourselves along the padded seating in close proximity to the DJ. Shortly afterwards, a server came by to take our orders. My wife ordered the short rib, garlic fries, and the Sip It Slowly cocktail; I ordered the Jamaican Jerk Chicken, Dumplings (suggested by the server), and the Jerk Old Fashioned. While we awaited our orders, the server brought us a delicious miniature size soup - which was absolutely delicious and definitely a tease! Shortly after, our drinks arrived. I found my drink to be delicious, strong, and was intrigued by the flavor that the little piece of submerged jerky provided. However, I will admit that I was a bit jealous when I snuck a couple sips of my wife's delicious cocktail. Up until the arrival of our meals, I was impressed. My wife found the short ribs to be just ok; additionally, her fries were lukewarm upon arrival and dry (as if they were overcooked). I have had Jamaican jerk chicken in Jamaica, so my expectations were very high. Unfortunately, the chicken was not flavorful and did not have the "kick (spice)" that I anticipated. Surprisingly, the highlight here was the dumplings (delicious!) and the Hint of Passion cocktail that I ordered (if I had a signature drink- this would be it!). I really should have listened to my intuition when we initially observed that a majority of the other patrons were just indulging in drinks, no food. When our server brought us the bill totaling roughly $160, I couldn't help but feel like the food was not in alignment with the price point. I wanted so badly to like this establishment, but honestly could not see myself returning for anything other than one of their cocktails.

I also love that they have a firepit, which makes it a great place to linger and enjoy the beautiful Solage setting. Whether you're staying at the resort, spending the day by the pool, or simply coming in for a casual meal, Picobar is absolutely worth a visit.
