    I been trying different food trucks while I'm recovering from a knee replacement. I gave Joella's a try. I ordered the spicy chicken with fries. There fries are so good! 10/10, really enjoyed the sandwich but I am not a huge fan of chicken thighs. It was juicy and crispy. Definitely give them a try!

    I've known about this spot for quite some time after I read an article from the SF Chronicle claiming they had the best chicken sandwich throughout the Bay Area. And just to turn it up a notch, the Chronicle also has them in the Top 25 Best Restaurants in Wine Country. I happened to be in Napa running some errands and decided to finally check them out. I met the owner who was pretty chill and friendly plus took my order. I was there for the chicken sandwich of course, but also wanted to try their Philly Cheesesteak sandwich I've seen on their menu. I also ordered some seasoned fries and a Mexican Sprite. The fries were nicely seasoned and crispy. The chicken had the perfect crisp to it and was juicy inside. The coleslaw inside gave the sandwich a nice tangy twist, while the hot honey had a nice balance of both sweet and spice. I did have a bit of a challenge attacking this since it was a huge sandwich, but I definitely liked it. The Cheesesteak was a bit messy (in a good way) but was a nice size for a full one; probably should have gotten a half one but oh well. The sliced steak was tender and juicy, while I also enjoyed the flavors of the cherry peppers and garlic mayo. Would definitely order this again. This was an experience I'm glad I finally had the opportunity to check out. Will go back hopefully soon to try some other items.

    Three words. Steak and cheese. Saturday only I think. The fried chicken is great but the steak and cheese is unreal.

    Impromptu lunch review. Chicken food truck. Cheesesteak Sandwich $13.00 - $22.00 Top sirloin steak, Caramelized onions, Roasted garlic mayo, Spicy cherry peppers, and Provolone cheese on Sciambra bakery baguette. Fried Chicken Sandwich $18.00 On our sourdough - potato bun, drizzled with Fresno hot honey, and topped with tangy ranch slaw and dill pickles. Overall, great pre-bottlerock lunch option. "As good as it gets."

    Crispy Chicken Bites

    We love the food & the crew at Joella's Deli! Let's start with the fact that everything is fresh and made from scratch! Most restaurants use jars of pickles... well Ian starts with cucumbers and pickles them! The sandwich rolls are hand made and baked daily. Fresh chicken is hand breaded and fried to hot crispy perfection. His sauces are spicy and flavorful. Hard to choose, so we dip in all of them! One of the best things about Joella's Deli is the crew is like Family! They are respectful and kind, working hard with big smiles! Make plans or stop on a whim, but talk to them, hear the stories!!!

    What a cute, and incredibly delicious place to grab and go! It's a small but mighty cart that has restaurant grade chicken sandos and then some. The people working the cart were fabulous and offered me a little sweet treat while I was waiting too. Going back with friends this week :)

    While in Napa looking for some take away food and found Joella's Deli (food truck). We ordered their Chicken Tenders (4 stars) and Buffalo Chicken Wrap (5 stars). The tenders were very tasty and crispy but maybe a bit overcooked? The exterior was hard to bite into but once you chomped on it the flavors and tenderness came through. The wrap was huge and full of chicken with a decent amount of spice kick. Lots of veggie and sauce to make each bite scrumptious. The lady quickly took our order and prepared our items. Since this was a Food Truck (actually a trailer) there was no real seating area but the weather was nice so all good.

    Took my kids here yesterday and really enjoyed everything! The eggplant sandwich h was delicious and unique, and the Cajun fries were the best I've had. Will def be back.

    Buffalo Chicken Caesar Wrap

    Small truck located in an somewhat uncommon location. I pass by this truck quite frequently while working however never have the time to stop. I was craving a sandwich after work one day and decided to give them a try. The fried chicken sandwich was so juicy and flavorful, nestled between a homemade bun and topped with slaw and homemade pickles. The cajun fries were lightly tossed with cajun seasoning and served with a sauce that I wish I would have asked for more of! They definitely know what they're doing here!

    Cheesesteak and fries

    The cheesesteak is definitely best in Napa so good my favorite! Also the cajun season fries or tasty and my wife love the buffalo chicken Cesar warp.would definitely recommend trying .

We came in right before the restaurant filled out at 10am and got the shakshuka along with a burger and fries. Everything was made perfectly and so flavorful. The chefs certainly have a skill for optimal taste and cooking as that was the best meal of the weekend. The server was so attentive and sweet too! We always had our water refilled and several friendly workers asked us about our triathlon experience. Very sweet people!

Some mishaps have happened with service on prior visits but management and servers are always concerned and make it right. That's why I keep coming back. I Popped in Thursday afternoon for Pho. It was not busy only two other couples eating when we arrived. We sat at our usual table And noted service was a bit slow right off the bat. When I received my Pho, which I thought was a longer wait than usual, it was luke warm if that. The Korean ribs and chicken wings arrived temperature appropriate. I pushed my soup aside but no one checked back until my lunch mate finished. When the waiter came to clear the table I asked for a to go and thought he would ask if there was anything wrong. He did not so I told him the Pho was served luke warm so I did not eat it and that no one had checked back or even passed by us or I would have sent it back to heat it up. We were done now so I'd just take it to go. Our waiter apologized and when he brought the bill said The Pho was comped and apologized again for the breakdown in service. When I dine I like to relax and enjoy a meal With who I came with. So receiving temperature appropriate food is important. The KD does a good job. They have a diverse menu with flavorful food and great cocktails. When there is a hiccup in service or the food there is a genuine concern. Sometimes it's caught by them and others it's brought to their attention. It's how things are dealt with when those mishaps happen. The KD addresses your concerns with sincerity and want their diner to have an all around great experience. If you have not been give KD a try when in downtown Napa.

I wasn't impressed, and honestly, I don't think I even finished my bowl. It will probably be a while before I give poke bowls another try because of this experience. Overall, I wouldn't recommend Napa Noodles.

I would absolutely go back just for that special. The pancakes were fluffy and delicious, though you can only get so excited about pancakes.

The food came out pretty quickly and was a good portion size. Everything is very saucy which I like. I enjoy my noodles with more sauce. I liked that they had a special on the pad Thai.

Flavorful, fresh, and exactly what you'd hope for. That's the only reason this isn't a lower rating. Service, on the other hand, has been consistently disappointing across multiple visits. No greeting when we walked in. No acknowledgment when we left. Not a single check in during the meal. And this isn't just a one off experience. It's happened before. What makes it worse is the contrast. While we were being completely overlooked, I watched the server be noticeably more attentive and friendly with other tables. It wasn't subtle. It's uncomfortable to sit there and feel like you're being treated as an afterthought while others are getting actual service. To top it off, my partner's iced tea was forgotten again. Something that also happened during a previous visit. At that point, it stops feeling like a simple mistake and starts feeling like a pattern of carelessness. And let's be real. The overall attitude comes off unnecessarily bougie for a casual Thai restaurant. Yes, this is near Napa Valley wine country, but that doesn't justify selective hospitality or a cold, dismissive vibe. Take that energy somewhere else if it means certain customers are going to be treated differently. I'm not here to speculate on intent, but I am calling out the experience. As returning customers, we've repeatedly felt unwelcome and overlooked. That's not acceptable in any restaurant, especially one that clearly has the potential to be great based on the food alone. Right now, the front of house is dragging this place down. Good food can't make up for service that makes people feel invisible.
