I come here for the stuffed French toast, which is fantastic if you have a sweet tooth. Avocado toast is not super fancy but fresh tasting and comes with a good salad. Coffee is it typical medium type American coffee. Nothing special but it's consistent.

The food looked amazing and the decor looked worth checking out in the other reviews. From the service to the vibe to the food, everything was on point and exceeded expectations. The stuffed French toast was beyond filling. You'd think it'd be extremely sweet but the sweetness was subtle and didn't overpower my taste buds. The side of fried chicken was a must after seeing it was their claim to fame. It was slightly dry but seasoned incredibly well. The highlight, decor-wise, was their superhero-themed restroom. The walls were full of every Marvel and DC character you could imagine. Every time my wife and I travel we always try to find a place that we'd revisit. Sunshine Cafe will be that spot in Napa. It'll be a go-to before every drive back home. Can't wait to comeback and try more of their menu as everything looked and sounded delicious.

PAIN AU CHOCOLAT - wow the layers! amazing baking here (on another level) also got their COCONUT COLD BREW COFFEE, and the coconut cream was sooo yummy (I wished I had more of it). Cold brew was also strong. I was tempted to try their Lobster Corn Dog with caviar... but I guess next time~

    TLDR: I expected nothing less from the incredible PRESS…read moreteam. Under-Study is an exceptionally creative, fun, and delicious addition to the Napa cafe scene and shines with its food items. Can't wait to come back sometime soon. ------ FOOD 1. [MUST TRY] BREAKFAST SANDWICH (5/5) I think the best breakfast sandwich we've ever had. The croissant was perfect: beautiful shape, expert lamination, extremely buttery taste, and super crispy from potentially an additional bake before becoming a sandwich. The egg was a fluffy souffle-type. Cheese and aioli were great, but most importantly, the sausage was EXCEPTIONAL. It was oddly shaped which is how you know it's a freshly-made sausage patty vs. a store-bought / freezer section sausage. 2. [MUST TRY] COCOA QUENELLE (5/5) One of the best chocolate desserts we had in Napa, and a chocolate lover's dream. The chocolate tart crust has an excellent chocolate flavor and is the kind with a very satisfying snap when you break it. The chocolate mousse covers a layer of thicker chocolate and a pool of salted caramel at the base of the tart. It's garnished with a chantilly cream quenelle on top with some candied nuts and cocoa nibs. Not only is this beautiful, but this is delicious. A must-have the next time I'm here. 3. [MUST TRY] SALMON RILLET (5/5) Super unique and high protein. Flattened and fried salmon skins that serve as your "chip". The "dip" is this lean trout + creme fraiche mixture topped with a layer of trout roe. The dip is on the leaner side vs. creamy side, so the salmon skin isn't hard enough to actually dip in the mixture. Better to use a fork to scoop the dip onto the salmon skin. 4. AVOCADO TOAST (4.5/5) Not my usual choice but the employee raved about this item. The avocado and kosho are mashed together into a smooth mousse that's then piped onto a great slice of sourdough. The acidity and kick of the kosho really shone through, making this better than most other avo toasts I've tried. 5. WAGYU SKEWERS (4/5) Two skewers with 3 pieces of wagyu each. The wagyu was good with flavorful salsa verde, but some pieces were a little tough. 6. GARDEN SALAD (4/5) Great, bright, simple salad. Large portion, great for some greens on the table! 7. BRIOCHE TART (3.5/5) Reminded me of a Czech kolache -- essentially a danish but instead of a puff pastry dough, it's a soft brioche bread. The center had a cream cheese and raspberry filling. While the filling was delicious and the brioche was nice, there was a bit too big of a brioche-to-filling ratio for my personal preference. 8. PAIN SUISSE (2/5) Given the ham, cheese, and mustard, felt like a play on a cubano. While the flavors were there, the pastry was unfortunately a bit dense and lacked the buttery, flakey layers I was hoping for. I asked for this to be warmed up, which they happily accommodated, but strangely the ham inside was actually cold, even after being in the oven. ------ ENVIRONMENT / AMBIANCE: * Beautiful cafe right next to the fabulous PRESS Restaurant in St. Helena. Essentially, it's on the road toward downtown but without the traffic of having to enter the downtown area. * Huge parking lot so parking is convenient and shouldn't be an issue * Both a large outdoor area with several different tables and high-top seats, as well as indoor seating (though only a few two-person high top tables and a handful of lower stool seats) * Overall the style is bright, colorful, and perfect for a girls trip, breakfast/lunch with friends, and quick stop for a coffee and pastry ------ SERVICE: * Surprisingly hit or miss. There was a gentleman here whom I interacted with the most who was absolutely wonderful and a joy to chat with. Similarly, another woman who seemed important was very kind. But a couple other employees were expressionless toward me. * Some items were ready surprisingly quickly while others took a surprisingly slow time to come out. For example, the breakfast sandwich and salmon rillets were super speedy. But then the wagyu and avo toast took 20-30 minutes to come out. Similarly, when I asked for the pan suisse to be heated up, it took over 10 minutes for them to do so.

My first order was their Breakfast Bagel sandwich with sausage. It was absolutely delicious. The bagel was toasted perfectly and the eggs were nice and fluffy. The sausages were cooked perfectly too. For my second and third orders, we went with the Smoked Salmon Benedict with baked Roasted Potatoes. The salmon was smoked to perfection, and the poached eggs were prepared just right. The slices of avocado on the buttery English muffins were the compliment to making this Benedict so special. And the hollandaise sauce is so flavorful, I give it a chefs kiss! No question I will definitely continue to support this hidden gem we found in Vallejo.! Who knew?

I was upset about the misleading description on the menu. The dish literally had more bell peppers than anything. I couldn't even finish my food because it wasn't good. The execution overall wasn't at a reasonable quality. My recommendation is they let people know they're using sandwich cuts for the dish. It would be even better if the dish didn't exist. I definitely wouldn't have ordered it had I known the level of delivery I would get. Disappointing

    my favorite stop on the way to vallejo!…read more i discovered this spot on instagram during the pandemic and they've lived a few different lives since then: from a coffee truck to pop up events. it's been so lovely to see them grow and open up this cozy shop. i'm a sucker for mexican inspired coffee flavors and cute marketing. calcaca fits the bill! this location is small but mighty. they are connected to a little restaurant/market type thing so you have plenty of space to hang out. there's ample street parking out front. the lucha libre mural is my favorite. the merch is top tier. BUT THE COFFEE OMG. the cafe de olla is so classic. the horchata latte is done very well but the banana cream cold foam is legit top tier. all of their cold foams elevate already delicious drinks without being overly sweet. service is amazing and i love supporting their small business. way to put crockett on the map, calaca!

    Recently discovered Calaca Coffee from Yelp and Instagram,…read moreand this is a hidden gem coffee shop! First, the staff were friendly and helped me narrow down a drink. I ordered one their popular drinks, the banana cream cafe de olla cold brew. Hands down one of the best cold brews I've ever had! The coffee shop was easy to find in Crockett and there was free street parking, which was a plus. Inside, they had plenty of tables to sit, hang with friends, or do work. Can't wait to visit again and highly recommend if you're looking for coffee in this area.
