    Lunch + dinner menu
    Ann B.

    So many good dishes to choose from! Would definitely recommend the cinnamon bun, Benny's benedict, seasonal fresh corn griddle cake with the spicy butter, George's big morning breakfast, the jumbo juicy burger, mom's bolognese, the soft serve sundae with mom's toffee. The cozy diner decorations and the oldies music give the restaurant the perfect unique diner vibes. The team make you feel like you are dining in their kitchen.

    First time. Casual diner feel spot w/ a homey feel. What can I say except this place hit the spot. The appeal is their housemade bread used for their toast, muffins, etc. along with their housemade jam that pairs perfectly with the bread. The second appeal was the wonderful menu with many options. Super friendly staff and great service. Food was well prepared and tasted great. We will definitely be back when we visit Napa again. This is a must try spot.

    Sides for prime rib
    Michelle V.

    Food and service were both great! We came for breakfast and the family had a wonderful experience. The cinnamon bun is a must! We were intrigued by the dinner menu and returned on a different day. The prime rib reminded of Filipino Bistek. We asked for no pepper and flakes in the udon carbonara for our daughter. The fish fry daily special was delicious! There is plenty of seating indoors and outdoors. The daily special comes with ice cream. Definitely family friendly!

    I had high hopes for this place but was unfortunately left disappointed. The sandwich was nothing special with too much Cole slaw, glad I asked for it on the side. The cinnamon roll was also disappointing.

    Tried this new spot for brunch for the first time and we enjoyed it. Plenty of parking in the lot. When you walk in know what you'd like to order because you place your order first and pay before you are seated. They have indoor and outdoor seating. We were not prepared so we ordered the first two items and sat,then they have a menu you can scan and order from your table. We ordered their house buttermilk pancake with maple syrup this was delicous and fluffy,chicken parm was amazing,saucy and cheesy and the zucchini that comes with was so good and lastly we ordered Benny's benedict with bacon and this was ok. Overall I enjoyed it and would come back to try other items.

    My friend took me here for breakfast and it was so good! The portions were big and tasted great. I had the pancakes and couldn't finish them. They are thick and fluffy! My friend enjoyed her pancakes eggs and hash browns too. Everything was flavorful and filling! The service was excellent and had a real family feel to it. It's a cute place too and in a good location. I'd recommend trying it out for breakfast! Prices were good.

    Baked potato and side salad
    Cherylyn A.

    Delicious food, reasonable prices, and wonderful service. We came in for their prime rib dinner since our whole family loves prime rib and their specials on Sundays are a huge steal! Comes with a side salad and baked potato. Our prime rib came out cooked perfectly and was soaked in Au jus sauce which we appreciate so much since we usually would have to ask for extra on the side at other restaurants. Our meal even included ice cream which was so a nice touch. The restaurant is super cute and casual, definitely giving neighborhood diner vibe. You order ahead and seat yourself. They even have QR codes At each table where you can order additional items If needed, I definitely want to come back for breakfast/brunch. The portions are huge! Tip: bring in a bottle as it is currently free corkage. And order some of the tallow fries, soo addicting and flavorful!

    We were excited for this place and saw a long line outside. As I stood in line I looked up Yelp reviews and had second thoughts. I consulted with my friends but a lady in line in front of us said she was a regular and enjoyed the eggs Benedict so we decided to stay and try it. The line is long because you order at the front and then you sit down. There's a good amount of indoor seating and they also offer outside shaded seating. The vibes inside are definitely old school diner/someone's house. They also have a section of games and activities you can borrow to entertain the kids. After you are seated, the service is non existent. We had to waive down a server running around for a few things. They also forgot to deliver our cinnamon bun and it was cold when we received it. So that was a let down. Benny's Benedict (one order with sausage and one order with bacon) 3/5: they serve them on these huge plates and the hasbrown portion already seemed like it was subpar as is. The hollandaise sauce was more on the tangy side. The sausage had good seasoning and was thick. The Farmer Breakfast 4/5: Same as above. We really enjoyed the sausage patties. Fresh Corn + Scallion Omelet 3/5: Wished the scallion had been mixed into the omelet instead of being a topping. Loaded Baked Idaho Potato 4/5: I ordered it without chives but they ended up including them so it ruined the overall experience for me but this was probably my favorite thing we ordered. It was LOADED and the thick crispy bacon elevated it. Big Apple "XL" Cinnamon Bun 3/5: We really loved the apple included in this, but couldn't get past the fact it was cold because it had been sitting on the kitchen window. All the icing was little too overwhelming as well. There wasn't a good bun to icing ratio. It is definitely a shareable bun. Prices were reasonable for Napa. It's located in a shopping center so there is plenty of parking.

    smashburger with side of tallow fries

    Swung by George + Kin's for a quick lunch/snack between wine tastings to share with some friends. We placed an order on the app and it was ready for pickup at the estimated time! Service is great and friendly and the vibes inside are super cozy and like having dinner at a grandparent's home - super welcoming and warm! We tried the chicken katsu sandwich - nice thick airy milk bread with a sourdough tanginess, a generously sized chicken which wasn't dry and plenty of tasty crunchy slaw! We loved the slaw and I'm so glad we got a side of it too, super fresh, and not too heavy or oversauced. The fries - still perfectly hot, cooked fluffy inside and crisp outside with a good tallow beefy flavor! Last but not least, we grabbed a slice of Dutch apple pie - HUGe portion, and super heart with great, not tok thin or mushy slices of apple inside. It would be perfect with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, but also we were already so full! George + Kin's is an amazing diner for the neighborhood and I'll definitely be back to try some more off of their menu, but I'll definitely keep l getting the fries each time!

    Cute little spot in town. Plenty of seating inside and out. All the dishes looked so delicious. We tried the pancakes(which were literally yummy "PAN" cakes!! Also had the basic eggs, bacon sausage, toast and freshly squeezed orange juice. The bacon was thick and tasty, the sausage tasted fresh and delicious and don't miss the fresh strawberry jam on your toast. I was feeling a little under the weather but our waitress made a suggestion for me to try and thankfully that fixed me right up. Very prompt and friendly service. Lots of nearby parking.

    Benny's Benedict

    Let me begin by saying I absolutely LOVED Heritage Eats. It was my go-to spot for years for a tasty, well-priced meal when in Napa. It became my pre-show dinner spot when in town for theatre. I loved the variety of choices/cuisines on the menu. I loved the dishes being prepared right in front of you. I loved the staff and the entire vibe of the place. I last visited it right before it closed to find just about everything different. Table service instead of the hot brau approach. A more "formal" than "casual" dining environment. Minimal staff. Minimum "vibe". About a week after that visit their closure was announced. I was disappointed, but not surprised. Then it was announced it would replaced by a "diner"-like establishment by the same proprietors. I had hope. I gave it some time to settle in and then headed in for another pre-theatre meal. To say I was disappointed is an understatement. To begin with, they've gone with the QR code method of ordering, which I loathe. I want to talk to a human being about the menu and my options. I also want to know that my order has been taken, which I began to doubt after nothing had been brought to my table after 30 minutes. Which is also how long it took for anyone to check in with me. They apologized and indicated it should be out any moment. I ordered the "Benny's Benedict" (poached eggs, English muffin, hash browns, toast) figuring it would be a fairly quick dish to prepare. Nope. My disappointment continued with its arrival. After savoring the many flavors of Heritage Eats, the blandness of this dish surprised me. The eggs were swimming in the least flavorful hollandaise sauce I've ever sampled that absolutely drowned the eggs. The hash browns lacked seasoning (or were too "well-done" to taste any) and the toast was dense and flavorless even while minimally buttered. I think the picture I took of the dish captures its blandness. A very disappointing return to the space. And no vibe whatsoever.

    Lee D.

    Quality/Quantity - Welcome to Napa. A new business that just replaced Heritage Eats. Guess I am too slow, or the Yelp community is just too fast in writing their reviews. I uploaded my pictures on 4/3/26 and now finally writing my review... Well, if you are following, you know I have started my travels again. Anyway, the simple menu was done well. Food made fresh and from scratch. Breakfast is served all day. Ambiance - Small to decent size location. I think the outdoor space is as large as the indoor space...? Open 7 days a week from 8am to 8pm. Plenty of mall parking. Service - Good. Price - Reasonable, see the pictures of their menu. Owner Comment - Congrats on your new location and being in the business for the last 10+ years.

And when it finally did arrive, our food was cold, which was disappointing after waiting that long. The bigger issue came when we paid our tab. Our waiter was able to split the bill into three, which we appreciated. One of my friends offered to cover the tip for the entire table on her portion of the bill. The waiter immediately told us that if she did that, the tip would only apply to the portion of the bill she was paying. I understand where the waiter was coming from, but I don't think the waiter understood what we were trying to do -- my friend was offering to cover the tip for the entire table, not just her portion. As each of us paid, the waiter watched us select our tip amount and repeatedly reminded us that we each needed to leave a tip. I understand wanting to make sure a tip is included, but the way it was handled made the situation feel uncomfortable and pressured. I've been to Gracie's Table multiple times and have always enjoyed coming here, so this was disappointing and definitely not my usual experience. Hopefully this was just a one-off, because I've had much better experiences here in the past.

Bay Area and had heard plenty of positive reviews, so we were genuinely excited to finally try it. One thoughtful touch is that La Cheve provides umbrellas for guests waiting in line, which is especially appreciated when you're standing outside under the sun. It's a small gesture, but one that shows the restaurant has put some thought into making the waiting experience a little more comfortable. They also offer the option to order coffee through a QR code while waiting in line. I ordered a large black coffee, while my partner ordered a café con leche. Unfortunately, it took about 25 minutes for the drinks to be ready. When we picked them up, the café con leche was served in the same large cup as my coffee--but it was only half full, with roughly a quarter cup of coffee and another quarter consisting of foam. It felt odd drinking from a large half-full cup. Once we reached the counter, though, we were greeted with a warm smile, which was appreciated. We ordered the chilaquiles with an addition of Al Pastor meat, the asada and eggs, the concha French toast, a cronut, the house lager, and a local craft beer. it took approximately an hour and a half from the time we got in line until we were finally seated. By that point, we were more than ready to eat, and despite the long wait, we were still excited to see what the kitchen could do. Unfortunately, that excitement faded quickly once the food arrived. The concha French toast was a big disappointment. The menu description had immediately caught our attention, and we expected something that combined the richness and texture of French toast with the distinctive character of a concha. Instead, we received four small, shortcake-style pieces of bread that were dry and didn't particularly resemble either French toast or a concha. There was no noticeable cinnamon-egg batter, nor any powdered sugar. The dish was served with fresh berries and a side of cajeta ( a craft caramel sauce). The caramel itself was delicious, but it wasn't enough to make up for the lackluster bread. The chilaquiles were the biggest disappointment, and unfortunately, this dish had several execution issues altogether. The tortilla chips were soggy, lacking the texture you'd expect from well-executed chilaquiles. I also ordered the dish with Al Pastor meat, hoping to get a taste of the restaurant's house adobo. Instead, what arrived was a measly portion of tiny pieces and crumbs of meat that appeared to be mostly the remnants from the bottom of the pan. Then there was the oil. There was an excessive amount of it-- so much that a pool had collected in one corner of the plate (see picture below). I actually had to ask the server for extra paper napkins so I could soak up the oil. It was difficult to appreciate the pastor's seasoning or adobo from the oily portion that I was served. The eggs were another example of inconsistency with this plate. I specifically ordered them over medium, expecting set whites with a warm, runny yolk. Instead, the eggs were cooked very unevenly. One was noticeably overcooked, while the other was so thoroughly cooked that the yolk had essentially been obliterated. For a dish that relies on relatively simple ingredients, getting something as fundamental as the eggs right should be a given. My partner's asada and eggs wasn't terrible, per say. However, the dish consisted primarily of bell peppers, a blob of melted cheese, and some asada meat-- the kind you get with regular asada tacos. On the other hand, the biscuits that accompanied the dish, were a genuine highlight. We particularly enjoyed the jalapeño and cheese filling, which gave them a nice savory kick. Thankfully, the bakery items and beer showed us where La Cheve really shines. The house lager was crisp, refreshing, and very enjoyable, while the cronut was downright scrumptious. These were the kinds of items that reminded us why we had been so excited to visit in the first place. Ultimately, La Cheve feels like a restaurant with two very different personalities. The bakery side is impressive, while the savory kitchen needs considerably more attention to execution and consistency. If I were judging the bakery alone, I'd happily give it around 4.5 stars The cronut, biscuits, caramel, and house beer all showed plenty of promise. But the brunch dishes need work--particularly when it comes to texture, portioning, cooking temperatures, and consistency. We came in eager to understand what had generated so much enthusiasm for La Cheve. There are certainly some very good things happening here, and thoughtful touches like the umbrellas for guests waiting in line make a difference. But based on our visit, the kitchen still has some significant kinks to work out before the savory menu matches the promise of the bakery.

Unfortunately, on this visit, the service never quite caught up with the food. We stopped in for a business breakfast and waited longer than expected simply to be acknowledged, despite plenty of open tables. Once greeted, our waiter promised us a "great seat," then somewhat puzzlingly placed us at a table directly beside the front door. With much of the dining room available, it was an odd choice for two people settling in for a business conversation. I ordered the Eggs Benedict with breakfast potatoes, orange juice, and coffee. The juice arrived, followed by the meal, but the coffee apparently decided to sleep in. I eventually had to ask for it. Fortunately, the Benedict was the highlight. The eggs were nicely prepared, the Canadian bacon flavorful, and the English muffin had just the right crispness underneath. The hollandaise was smooth and pleasantly tangy, with a subtle touch of lemon that brightened the entire dish. My only request: be a little more generous with it. A good Benedict deserves enough hollandaise to cascade over the edges of the English muffin and leave a little behind for that final bite, or two, to drag through the sauce. The potatoes had decent seasoning and plenty of flavor, but the texture fell short. They were quite soft, without the crisp, golden exterior that would have taken them from ordinary to memorable. The biggest disappointment, however, was the service. After seating us, our waiter essentially disappeared. There was no check-back after the food arrived, no water or coffee refill, and no inquiry as to whether we needed anything else. At the end of the meal, I had to flag him down for the check and then again to pay it. Attentive service doesn't need to be intrusive, but it does need to be present. Petit Soleil has a lot going for it, and the Benedict demonstrated that the kitchen can deliver. But in Napa, where hospitality is every bit as important as what lands on the plate, good food deserves service to match. On this morning, the Benedict showed up. The hospitality didn't.

    So I came here last year and didn't get the hype. I ordered some sort of English muffin breakfast…read moresandwich if I remember correctly. I remember it tasting just slightly better than a normal English muffin. Well, I don't know what happened between that and now, but I had a totally different experience this time. We just ordered a pack of 6 to go (steep at $14 but absolutely worth it). Got home, made our own breakfast sandwiches. Wow. They are so incredibly buttery, soft/fluffy, just delicious and addicting. They don't taste like the English muffins you're used to, because they're not. I think it's a fermented focaccia dough fried in clarified butter. So it's like a focaccia donut English muffin hybrid. And so what? They improved the standard English muffin, what's wrong with that? I was really never a big fan of English muffins anyway. Model Bakery has unfortunately made me an English muffin snob I guess. It totally lived up to the hype. If you're going to eat it there, I'd honestly recommend getting a plain English muffin, or if they do it with jam or butter do that. Or just take them home like we did (or both!).

    I had some of the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had here, just wow. All the pastries I tried…read morehere were great as well! I tried both their original and their breakfast sausage sandwiches and both were so delicious. Both come in their famous English muffins which felt more like a brioche or donut. They were warm, buttery, and were crispy. The original sandwich had tasty Canadian bacon, custardy eggs and were cheesy. My favorite though was the sausage breakfast which also had custardy eggs, meaty sausage, cheesiness and their spicy chipotle aioli. So good! Both were warm, ooey, gooey, and indulgent. Ordering was relatively easy and they call you for pickup when your order is ready. It does take some time though. I went on a Saturday morning and it took me 20-30 minutes to receive my order, but it was so worth it. I also like how they have day old pastry bags for $3 which is such a steal! Parking is street parking and there are some free spots nearby. I would highly recommend this spot for a nice breakfast in Napa!
