We will definitely take that drive to come to Wine Girl again!

It's located in the heart of downtown, in the middle of shops, wine bars, eateries, and hotels. There's even dual swings in the corner you can sit on for picture taking. I wish we could have spent more time here, but we were part of a Rydables tour stop. We were in and out in less than 30 mins. I'll definitely be back if in the area again.

The Pinot and 2020 Estate Cab are my favorites. 2. Tastings are affordable and the playlist is a mix of oldies and groovy RNB music. 3.

My friend and I Ubered an hour North to Napa for an afternoon away. We didn't plan much besides our…read morelunch. After we finished eating, I frantically researched (read: checked Yelp) for a winery to visit. Housley seemed to fit the bill--good reviews, dog-friendly (we had her dog with us), and what seemed to be a reasonable tasting price. We get there and we realize it's owned by Tamera Mowry (who is now Mowry-Housley!) There's a picture of her and her husband (a former baseball player) in the window. We're sort-of starstruck. Shortly after, her husband (and the winery's owner) Adam walks up with their daughter and asks us how we're doing. We continue to be starstruck. Service was wonderful. Seating was comfy. The views weren't the best (we were drinking on the sidewalk and there's a parklet too.) The 5 wines for $29 was not bad, but the size of the pours was lacking. The first pour was the smallest and then slowly they seemed to give us more (maybe they heard me!) Honestly, the pricier wines tasted better. I wish our wine tasting could've been free if we bought two bottles or something--I would've done that! Cute merch and store with goodies inside. Bathroom is clean. Would be back!

My wife and I had a wonderful experience dining at Carpe Diem. I attended an event here recently…read moreand knew I had to return for a date night. The dining room is small, but really lovely. Nice touches adorn the restaurant throughout. The menu has a lot of wonderful options. The service, provided by Alex, was excellent. We started with the Dungeness Crab arancini, which are probably the best thing we ate all evening, and that's saying a lot because everything we had was great. These arancini are perfectly fried crab meat rolled into a ball served over a delicious tartar sauce. I wish I had 3 orders of this, at least. We ordered the soup of the day and their bread service. The soup was a white bean and sausage and it was perfectly salty and fatty. The bread and butter was a perfect accompaniment. The Carpe Diem salad was also really special. It had these Cabernet soaked dried cranberries that were so good and tart. For an entree, we ordered the short ribs which come over a risotto. It felt a little heavy, and maybe the sauce could've used a little acid to cut the heaviness. It was still really delicious though. For dessert, we had the espresso crème brûlée. This was just the icing on the cake of a great meal. I love Carpe Diem and hope to come back soon!

I sat at the high tops at the bar for happy hour. My dog has been behaving amazingly since boarding school and being able to put her obedience to the test at CD was amazing because everyone was so kind. To drink I had the HH margarita. Then I had the pork belly which was phenomenal, though I wasn't expecting a one piece pork belly--thought it was going to be multiple pieces. It was so good. To drink I also had the carpeninsula--so good! Love this spot and thank you for welcoming me and my pup so warmly

Everyone having wine chose the Signature Flight, which included one white and three reds. I appreciated the option to substitute a Sauvignon Blanc for the Chardonnay, a nice personal touch. Each wine was distinctive, balanced, and delicious in its own way. You could really tell the care and craftsmanship behind every pour. What really stood out was the hospitality. Our host was not only incredibly thoughtful but impressively knowledgeable. She explained where each wine's grapes were grown, described the flavor profiles we could expect, and added insights into how the terroir influenced the wine -- all without it ever feeling too technical or over our heads. Even better, our designated driver was offered iced tea, lemonade, or an Arnold Palmer, which I really appreciated. It's always a plus when tasting rooms consider the full group's experience, not just the drinkers. The vibe was so warm and relaxing, we ended up staying for over two hours. It felt less like a stop and more like a true experience. Definitely one of the highlights of our time in downtown Napa.

Cozy seating, warm lighting, and little areas that make the whole wine tasting feel personal (Being in a large living room with different seating areas). We were greeted right away and shown to our spots without any wait. Cynthia took care of us, and she was amazing. She knew the wines, walked us through each flight with confidence, and made the whole experience feel relaxed and fun rather than "you don't know much about wine". I would absolutely come back. My one comment is that they don't offer the full House of Brown collection for tasting. I tried the Chardonnay and wanted to explore more from that line, but it just wasn't available there. That's really my only issue and that's why I would give them a 4.5/5. Check them out if you haven't already done so. It's so amazing to go to a place and then go back to work (part-time job) and have someone ask you about that specific line of wines. I was extremely excited to inform the shopper of everything I learned. He purchased everything I showed him from the line and we talked about 30 minutes. Great place to visit.

With a wasabi and fennel infused vodka, it was too unique not to be curious about. Upon arriving and looking over the menu, SEVERAL cocktails stood out to me as intriguing to try. I started with the Wabi Sabi which was as interesting as it sounded. While I didn't pick up on fennel, you do pick up on the wasabi, but in the most subtle of ways. Think maybe lime/ginger sparkling water with just a hint of spice. Refreshing and different for sure. I also tried the Mucha Lucha w/ cilantro infused Siete Leguas Blanco, chorizo infused mezcal and cubes made of hot sauce that make the drink have a bit more of a kick as you allow them to melt. I did the HH chips and guac which was also accompanied with a tasty Chipotle sauce. Damn good actually. It'd be excellent served in a variety of ways. The deviled eggs aren't going to blow your mind, but I like that you get 4 different ones- and simply because I love eggs, I'd order them again. (They just wouldn't be a dish that brings me back). The bartender was great- helpful and attentive, even as more people began to filter in for an early afternoon. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Napa to check out some other menu options.
