    Local baby greens w market vegetables, balsamic onions, and added avocado. Stay for the food and stay for the views!
    Dominique D.

    Pardon, are you looking for an exquisite place to dine near the vineyards? Look no further. It was a beautiful drive up with stunning vineyards all around. It quite frankly reminded me much of the drive up to Haute Cabrière in South Africa, the only biggest difference is they drive on the left side of the road. Nevertheless, valet the car, friendly vibes upon entering and seated right away on the terrance. The menu had options for salads, main dishes, and desserts--they are vegan friendly. I ordered the local baby greens with market vegetables; the balsamic onions and avocados added was a nice touch. Love is the most nutritional ingredient and love was all in the details. My non alcoholic beer was a first--It arrived; it went down tangy and salty. The view from the terrance was absolutely gorgeous. In fact it took my breath away with its beauty and an immeasurable sense of peace; the restroom was quite posh. If ever in the area I recommend as it was a lovely experience. Be careful this may very well become your favorite place to get good food with a view. I would like to return to visit the restaurant and stay over night at the resort that is beautifully located on a sun-kissed hillside.

    My husband and I went to Napa for the weekend just to get away and we wanted to go to a nice brunch and stumbled upon this place. It is a Michelin three key hotel and also a one star Michelin restaurant. We arrived about a half hour early and were able to sit at the bar and have a couple drinks and then the weather cleared up so we're able to sit on the patio and the views were awesome. There were many people that were bussing tables and serving and they were all very nice. You get to choose one drink one appetizer, one entrée and one dessert for the brunch. You can also order additional drinks if you want that, but that is all included in the price. We loved all of the food that we got, and they were not stingy with their portions and we were full after we were finished eating. If you're looking for a place that has a great brunch menu and also amazing views, I would not skip this place. They also have complementary valet for the restaurant and if you do not have cash, they do take Venmo if you would like to tip them at the end.

    The service provided by Orlando was excellent, but the kitchen ignored a dietary request from our dining companion that she was told could be accommodated. As she sat without food while the rest of our party was eating, the staff was kind enough to bring her 2 complimentary appetizers. Unfortunately, both of these appetizers included the spice that she was avoiding, so I ended up splitting my entree with her as the rest of the party was done eating by the time her entree arrived. The fish entree was quite good, the salad was okay - nothing was very memorable. Perhaps it was an off day? I wouldn't return, but will still give 3 stars because the views are spectacular, the FOH staff was wonderful, and honestly, if I didn't go into it knowing that they had a Michelin star, my expectations would not have been so high.

    Mushroom soup was delicious although so hot it took about ten minutes to be able to start eating it.

    We ate at the Bar Restaurant and the ambiance will always be top tier. We sat on the patio after sundown with heaters. There was an occasional smell of sewer that wasn't ideal. The bone marrow was unfortunately not done well. It was overly seasoned and greasy. The calamari, however, was fantastic. My husband's burger was perfectly cooked and my soup and salad were great but we do wish each dish had been a hit. The staff were very friendly.

    Dining at Auberge du Soleil is truly a quintessential Napa Valley experience. Yes, it's expensive--but it absolutely delivers in every way that counts: exceptional food, impeccable service, and arguably the best view in the valley. Whether you're celebrating something special or simply treating yourself, it's worth every penny. The food and drinks are expertly executed, with a menu that balances sophistication and comfort. One of the surprising standouts is the margarita pizza--simple, yes, but absolutely perfect. The crust is thin and crisp, the sauce bright, and the cheese just right. It's a great example of how even the most humble dish can feel elevated in the right hands. Other favorites include the duck mousse, rich and silky, and the calamari, which is perfectly crisp and tender without being greasy. The burger is another unexpected star--high-end and elevated, with premium ingredients and attention to every detail. It's far from your average burger. The pasta selection shines, especially in the summer months, when it's often paired with fresh seasonal vegetables that highlight the best of California produce. Seafood lovers have plenty to enjoy here as well. The fish of the day is always cooked to perfection, and the seafood tower is a showstopper, both visually and in flavor--packed with ultra-fresh oysters, prawns, crab, and more. And don't skip the Niçoise salad--Auberge makes one of the best versions anywhere, beautifully composed and bursting with flavor. Service is always top-tier--professional, warm, and incredibly attentive without ever being intrusive. The staff clearly knows the menu inside and out and goes out of their way to make sure your experience is seamless. The setting? Absolutely stunning. Whether you're on the terrace with panoramic views of the valley or seated indoors with floor-to-ceiling windows, the atmosphere is serene and luxurious. While valet parking is complimentary, it's always a good idea to have a little cash on hand to tip the valet staff, who are courteous, efficient, and a key part of the smooth Auberge experience. In short, Auberge du Soleil is a must-visit for anyone looking to enjoy the best of Napa--beautifully prepared food, excellent wines and cocktails, flawless service, and views that make you stop and take it all in. It's a splurge, but one you'll remember. I take all my dates (friends) there.

    AUBERGE TORTE AU CHOCOLAT with double scoop ice cream
    Sonu N.

    We heard this was one of the most beautiful restaurants in California so made sure to reserve a table in advance for our trip. The view was gorgeous but we were disappointed they did not seat us on the edge of the terrace even though tables were available-- we asked to be shifted, especially given how far we had traveled, and the waitress told us everyone travels far to get there so nothing she can do. She then proceeded to forget our Mains which after waiting so long we cancelled and said to just bring us dessert. They comped the dessert.

    A treat for my wife's birthday

    We've visited multiple times over the years. This was our first post-Covid dinner and apparently I assumed things hadn't changed - wrong! Prior to Covid, you could sit in the bar or Bistro and select from the Bistro or Restaurant menu. That is no longer the case. Would have been nice to know that in advance as the Bistro menu is limited. This was supposed to be a birthday dinner and turned into tapas. The service is always on point and we ordered a bottle of terrific Rose, and brought our own bottle. Corkage is $40, but is waived if you purchase a bottle off the wine list. The setting is fantastic and the views into the valley are breathtaking. So just make sure you understand the difference between the two sides of the "restaurant" before making your reservation.

    Flatbread
    Tamie F.

    The food, service and views here were amazing. The only thing that wasn't quite 5 stars was the odd interaction with the valet. I guess they don't get many people that show up in Prius, but that how we are getting around this trip! Anyway, valet aside, everything else was definitely 5 stars. Our server was very helpful and friendly. The flatbread appetizer was delicious! Probably the best flatbread we have ever eaten. My fish of the day was perfectly cooked and seasoned and my wife loved every bite of her steak. The view on the deck was gorgeous!

    Smoked Salmon Tartine
    Sherry C.

    FYI: don't get this confused with "The Restaurant at Auberge du Soleil." Same location, different menu. when booking on their website, this is under "The Bar." WHAT WE GOT: roasted bone marrow, smoked salmon tartine, housemade campanelle, fleur de lis (drink) PROS: god the ambiance of this place is immaculate. relaxing with a touch of boujee. the balcony where the outdoor seating is overlooks a gorgeous view of the valley so definitely try to go on a day with cooperative weather. the food was also delicious. the smoked salmon tartine tasted fresh and the roasted bone marrow was basically a creamy umami bomb. the pasta dish honestly was a bit lackluster after the gloriousness of those two appetizers but it was still good. The bits of the summer squash and corn were my favorite and much needed to cut through the creaminess of the pasta a bit. Our waiter was also very attentive and updated us on the status of our order if anything was taking a little long. CONS: absolutely nothing. Great experience overall!

    Roasted cauliflower

    Nice balcony view although it was a bit windy the day we went. We initially had a 2:30 reservation but I called the day before and they were able to give me 12pm slot which was perfect

    Unfortunately wasn't on my game to book the restaurant in time, but the Bistro is the next best thing. Amazing view overlooking the vineyard with a somewhat-but-not-too-limited menu. The veggies are clearly fresh and the seared yellowfin one of the best I've had. Valet parking only.

    Daw M.

    Thank you for a wonderful experience! Amazing service coupled with amazing food and an unbeatable view. Nothing more to say! Just come and experience the intimate and amazing food and service.

    Fish of the day (salmon on bed of spinach and wild rice)
    Gina L.

    Beautiful place and atmosphere. Came here for dinner and drinks during the sunset. Complimentary valet and all around very friendly staff. Ordered the pizza to start, then the fish of the day (salmon) and house made campanelle. Everything tasted ok, but the campanelle came out very under-cooked. Our waiter graciously offered us to choose something else from the menu and they'd nix the pasta off the bill. However, we opted to stay with the pasta - they nuked it in the microwave for a little and called it a day. Reservations are a must, preferably prior sunset so you can admire the view of the valley . The food is just ok, but the views make up for the grub.

I ordered a Caesar salad and a large wedge of lettuce arrived at the table, which was unexpected for a Caesar salad and I asked if I could please get it chopped and both a chef and a manager appeared at the table and said " we don't do that." I tried to understand if they were literally saying that they don't cut salads... And I asked don't they have a large knife in the back that would cut a salad for me and they said they don't do that. 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

It was an easy place to settle in for a drink and a few bites. Most of the happy hour items we tried were very well made. The chirashi (fish and rice) bowl was fresh and flavorful, the fried items were seasoned without feeling too heavy, and the katsu sandwich was crisp and just enough to leave you wanting more. We liked it enough that when I noticed a couple standing outside looking over the menu, I motioned for them to come in :) No such thing as perfection unfortunately. For example, the shiso bites looked nice, but for the price and portion, I didn't think they were worth ordering again. One item had run out as well, which is why we got the shiso bites in the first place. Overall, a very good happy hour experience, a peaceful atmosphere, and a setting that makes it easy to linger. A must-try restaurant in Yountville. My gf raves about RO whenever she gets the chance, and we'd definitely come back.

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. I know, I know technically we are tourist but we've spent so much time here over the years we don't feel like tourist and back in the day not long ago many people thought we lived there. Our bartender was great about explaining the details about the bank building and it's history along with a tour. Next time we are in St. Helena we will definitely be back. Actually may make a special trip from Napa just to go there.
