The decor here is beautiful. Really makes you feel like youre in a winery, especially the large wall of wine. We noticed they have a happy hour menu which we will have to come back and try but we visited for dinner. Our drinks were well made but Im sure the star here is all the wine options that are available. The star for us was the food. Everything arrived quickly and was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend the short rib, tender and tasty. Sarah was a fantastic server as well!

My friend and I came here for lunch and it was delicious. We will definitely be back!

Had dinner here with a friend who had never been here . We ate in the bar area which is very nice but alittle noisy. Tue is a good time to go here as it's half off on a bottle of wine under a hundred dollars. I ordered the chicken saltimbocca but I ended up sending it back . The chicken was pounded out so thin that it was dry and hard to cut . I got the French onion soup and a salad instead . Both very good. I have been here many times and this is the first time I had a problem with the food . Our server was Sarah and she was very nice and comp my chicken saltimbocca . Normally I would give a four rating but I only gave a three because of the dryness of the chicken . My friend who never been there was impressed and plan to bring her brother sometime. I will be back

Wine was wonderful, wedge salad was not very good. Salmon was avg. Service was not good, server was very weird talked too much. She spilled random food on me and could not bring herself to say sorry. If I go back it will be for the wine!

The lunch menu

I've been here once before for lunch and we decided to meet friends for dinner. It was great to see they changed their menu. I am Deaf and there is a young girl who is CODA (children of deaf adults) and is fluent in sign do it is always nice to make that connection. We loved how the place is decorated, especially in the back room we were in. Our waiter, Jason was attentive and friendly. We had great service. The food we all agreed was top of the line. Could not have been better. We already talked about coming back. This is a great place to dine and one needs to experience in order to understand why it's a staple in the Dublin community.

Had a good meal at NAPA but service was pretty sparse, I think the server wanted to get out of there and kinda forgot we existed. But the food it good, maybe a bit more pricey compared to what to get, but it's a nice cozy space.

Braised Beef Short Ribs
Kate W.

I came to NAPA this past Friday with my boyfriend for his Christmas work dinner. We were in a party of 14 people and dined in a private room. The room itself was very nice and I noticed the regular seating area looked very cozy as well. I'd had the braised short rib at the Taste of Dublin and had been craving it again ever since and was very excited to be coming back! Because we were in a large party we had a set menu. I started with the veal meatballs and some type of mushroom toast. The toast did not blow me away but I LOVED the meatballs. I'm very picky with meatballs so was hesitant at first but the sauce was amazing and the meatballs were so tender. I then started with an old fashioned that was pretty good. We had three courses for the meal and started with a choice of soup or salad and I had the Napa greens salad and my boyfriend had the wedge. The Napa greens was also pretty good but we were not fans of the wedge. To start, it was not a wedge, just random pieces of iceberg lettuce. It also had no bacon, the ranch was pretty watery, and there was hard boiled egg that made the entire salad taste like one giant egg. For the main I had the braised short rib again and it was the star of the show! It comes with mascarpone risotto and what I believe was carrots and parsnips. All the flavors paired so well together and the short rib was so tender. For dessert I then had the bourbon bread pudding that was served warm with vanilla ice cream. I wasn't able to finish but just a few bites as I was so stuffed, but it was also so delicious. We also had a red blend and Cabernet served with dinner which were both delicious wines. Our server was very attentive and nice the whole meal and we loved having the privacy of a private room for our party. I'll definitely be coming back on my own again for the short rib!

Amazing Views, Tasty Tapas & One Very Small Plate Problem!…read more We visited VASO Rooftop Bar yesterday to meet up with some friends and celebrate her retirement. And what better way to celebrate than with good friends, good food, and a rooftop view? Since VASO is a tapas-style restaurant, we decided to order several things and share everything. We started with the deviled eggs, followed by the Caribbean flatbread, bruschetta, and empanadas. We also tried the mussels served over spaetzle. Now, I'll say this right up front: the portions are on the small side. When you're sharing food with four people, three empanadas probably isn't the best game plan! We were definitely doing some serious plate math. But here's the good news--what the dishes lacked in size, they made up for in flavor! Everything we tried was really tasty and well done. There wasn't a dish that disappointed. Of course, we couldn't stop at dinner, so we moved on to dessert. We shared the blackberry crème brûlée, chocolate terrine, and spice sponge cake with bourbon sauce. The desserts were just as good and gave us a sweet way to finish the evening. And then there's the view. Being a rooftop restaurant, VASO gives you an incredible perspective of the river. Seeing the river from that height, especially while enjoying dinner and drinks with friends, made the whole experience even better. Overall, VASO delivered great flavors, creative tapas, delicious desserts, and an amazing rooftop atmosphere. Just remember--if you're dining with a group, order enough plates because those tapas aren't exactly supersized! Come for the view, stay for the food... just order extra!

But sadly the food was not good. We ordered several small plates and really didn't like any of them. The Korean fried chicken was fried too hard, and the paella was more like rice with a jumbled seafood mess on top.....it didn't taste or feel intentional, and the chorizo was needed in the dish at all. I was also expecting the crispy rice on the bottom and this dish didn't deliver that at all. The bruschetta was bland, and the lamb lollipops were overcooked. As for the drinks - they were okay. The drinks and food honestly look better than they actually taste. If you want to go somewhere for a nice photo come here....take in the view - have one drink - and then go.

They're part of the Seventh Son Brewing group and they have their own beers as well as some from Seventh Son and Antiques on High. The getaway beers were lower in abv and tended to be lagers and pilsners, although they had a delicious porter on tap - all roasty and bitter chocolate. Food was great! I had baked wings and Neapolitan style pizza. The wings were seasoned really well and not mushy, as can happen with baked wings. The pizza has a nice chewy crust and tasty toppings. They also have a Detroit style. Bartenders were friendly and helpful. Attentive but not intrusive. Great experience!

Next time I will.order the weekend jaunt for a pina colada experience. Free parking in the lot across from the library. Or the garage next to Gateway. Bring your ticket for validation. We sat at the bar and had interactions with every bar tender. The pizzacame out in about 30 minutes. The pizza was cooked more well down than I typically like. We will return!

I stopped by here a couple nights ago with one of my coworkers while on an out-of-town work trip…read more Despite being a Monday, the place was actually pretty busy. Regardless, we were seated right away. We were given a spot at a high top inside but adjacent to the open windows for some fresh evening air and a nice cooling breeze. Unfortunately, service throughout the night was a little spotty. The first round of drinks took a while to come out, the app went missing, our server (who seemed slightly less than enthused all night) took the liberty of snagging an extra one for us, and then our entrees came out right at the same time. I started with the sunrise mojito. Being a bit of a rum snob, I am particularly picky when it comes to rum-based drinks and this one did not disappoint. Probably one of the best takes on a mojito I've had in quite a while. I eventually followed that up with the peach bourbon smash, which was also tasty but pretty heavy on the peach and less on the bourbon. To get started on food, we ordered the street corn nachos. Now, I do love street corn, but something about corn on top of nachos on paper doesn't exactly sound like my personal first choice. However, since my coworker was putting the food on his company card, he went that route. Man, what a mistake I made in my assumption. Absolutely amazing. Gooey cheese, excellent flavors, and not too much to fill you up. My coworker got the shrimp capellini, which looked excellent and he agreed it was solid. I opted for the crispy chicken sandwich (a gochujang aioli? Come on). The sandwich was delicious. The chicken was indeed crispy but also quite juicy. The fries were also delicious being slightly soft, slightly crisp, and not too salty. All in all, a couple service hiccups aside, this was a really fantastic place. I definitely will be sure to make my way back here if I find myself on another work trip for sure!

The bartender was a bit slow and lacked a lot of people skills. Never asked how things were before, during or after eating. But that's the only reason this place got 4 stars. Dinner was delicious. Ordered the Miso Salmon. The fish was okay, nothing special and surprisingly small (I'm thinking 4oz), but the dish was delicious. Never had carrot hummus before, but it really worked on this plate. EVERYTHING on the plate worked together very well! Could have put shit on a shingle over that plate and it would have been delicious. After waiting a bit for flash to drop the check, I realized it was in a bar glass in front of me. Nice to see my Mich Ultra was only $3!
