    Valentine's Day 2026: Interior of Palisades Eatery.
    Rachel A.

    We tried lunch at Palisades Eatery on Valentine's Day 2026 after enjoying a relaxing morning of mud baths and massages at Golden Haven Spa, our go-to spot in Calistoga. When we arrived, Palisades Eatery had a lengthy line to place an order. While waiting, we could see into the open kitchen where the staff appeared visibly stressed and unhappy - not much of a welcoming atmosphere. As for decor, their 2025 Christmas tree remains sadly propped up in a corner. We found seating at a table that appeared to have been cut in half and pushed against one of the oddly blocked-off bay windows facing the street. During the long wait for our meal, we noticed the deceased and dying insects accumulated inside of the bay window. Unfortunately, this did not enhance the ambiance of our dining experience. Our Cobb salad, Roasted Beet salad, and Calistoga Caesar sandwich eventually arrived. After taking a few bites, we looked at each other and smiled, realizing we were both underwhelmed. None of the dishes stood out compared to the many other lunch options in Calistoga. In fact, after taking one bite of the Calistoga Caesar sandwich, my husband suggested that I skip it entirely. Following the posting of my unbiased review, I received a message from Palisades Eatery's "business manager" Angela R. which felt unnecessarily aggressive and slightly unbalanced. Please read Angela R.'s response and decide for yourself if this is the type of business you'd enjoy supporting.

    Veggie pizza, after we ate half. :) it had a crispy crust and was perfectly cooked. No complaints.

    We ate at the bar. They were busy, but they were still fast and friendly. We had drinks too. The place was festive for the holidays. Good ambience for a date of with family and friends. The pizza and Greek salad were perfect to share.

    We were leaving the area after visiting a few wineries, and this was our choice for some eats. It hit my requirement, pizza. It's a cute place inside, and I particularly like the old photos on the walls, on the way to the bathroom... Way in back. The woman at the counter was very friendly, and even allowed me to sample a couple of the beers (IPAs) on tap. While I don't remember the brewery, it was whichever one was most local. Pizza was great. I, and Thuy, forget which sandwich she had, but all of it got gobbled up (I don't think it was turkey). So here's a little 411. If there is an elderly lady having lunch by the window, unless you want to become embroiled in all sorts of lengthy conversation, on a wide variety of subjects, stay away. I didn't mind, but Thuy and my Godfather were a bit miffed. I didn't know we were planning on another winery!

    Wonderful service, they were able to substitute a veggie patty into the salad instead of the chicken, and it tasted very good! Made the salad more substantial and yummy. The veggie grilled sandwich was so nice as well, the sauces and melted cheese were delicious. The ambiance is modern farmhouse vibe with a clean aesthetic. Great place to stop by on the downtown street!

    Big N' Tasty Sandwich...well half of it anyway!
    Bobby M.

    Ok, first time here...actually first time in Calistoga! The Big N'Tasty chicken sandwich was delicious. Fried chicken cutlet with a BLT basically. The onion rings were great not greasy and very crispy. Had the house ice tea...has just a hint of berry taste, very good. Staff were great, food arrived pretty quick and just as ordered. The place is not huge and parking downtown wasn't the easiest but it was worth it. You order at the counter and they will bring you your food. There are a couple of small outdoor tables also. Overall a great place to grab some lunch.

    I love a good Mom and Pop restaurant and Palisades Eatery did not disappoint us. We needed some fuel to combat the several glasses of wine we enjoyed at our tasting at Myriad Cellars. Easy to order at the counter and instructed to grab a seat and they would bring out our lunch. My wife and I split the Italian Sandwich, bought some chips and opted for water. The sandwich was outstanding and big enough to satisfy even when split. Service was fast and friendly and water was cold and plentiful. Bonus was our ability to find a parking spot right in front of the restaurant. Our visit to Palisades Eatery was nothing short of 5 stars. This will be our stop when tasting wine in Calistoga.

    French fries
    Sandee M.

    The food here was absolutely wonderful - simple yet satisfying! I love club house sandwiches and their version was pretty close to perfection with the right amount of everything plus avocados. And their fries were delicious! The restaurant is quaintly cafeteria style where you go up to the counter to order and the food is delivered to your table. It's clean and comfortable and we enjoyed our lunch!

    This place is so cool and definitely worth a stop when you're in Calistoga…read more We stopped by for a quick lunch and were immediately led into the distillery, which can only be described as impressive. Boasting high ceilings with exposed wood beams and a beautifully decorated bar area, the space oozes with rustic class and would make a great venue for any party or group gathering. We, however, came in for a sit down lunch with two kids and the small lounge seats and tables were not the best setup for a family meal. Which is the only thing keeping me from giving this place five stars. Similarly, the menu was also catered more to adults, with plenty of vegan options but very few items suitable for kids. That's not a knock on this place, just something to take note of. As a result, we opted to snack on a few items and the caviar and duck fat fries did not disappoint. The espresso martini with pumpkin foam was also excellent. But the really cool part about this place is the vintage train cars, each intricately decorated and offering their own dining/drinking experience. For example, one offers an oyster bar with underwater decor while another features a cowboy bar with real saddles as bar seats. The cleverness in design and attention to detail is impressive and is what makes this place special. I doubt there is a more interesting place to have lunch in Calistoga. I'm a fan of what they're doing here and would love to come back. Minus the kids of course.

The only downside is the parking lot is a little small -- think along the lines of a Trader Joe's parking situation -- but don't let that stop you from visiting. A great local stop for delicious treats, everyday essentials, and a little something extra!

    A Hidden Gem for the Holidays…read more My wife and I have made it a tradition to stay at Solage in Calistoga every year during the holidays. It's our ultimate spot to completely unwind, relax, and just indulge in the food. Having Solbar right on the property makes things so incredibly easy--you don't even have to think about leaving the resort. The Vibe & Ambiance The space itself is gorgeous but still feels entirely unpretentious. Inside, you're greeted by massive, high-vaulted wooden ceilings decorated with these unique organic twig orbs. They're filled with tiny lights that honestly look like a canopy of starlight. During the day, the huge windows flood the room with natural light, but at night, the whole vibe shifts to candle-light, and the massive fireplace keeps everything warm and intimate. If you want a more casual setup, there's a full bar on one side with a few high-tops, plus a massive coffee table and a great sofa area. We've actually eaten a full meal right on the sofa before, and it's super comfortable. Exceptional Service What really sets Solbar apart is the hospitality. The service is exceptional, and it's the kind of place where the same servers actually remember you from your prior visits year after year. That personal touch goes a long way. The Food (Our Go-To Standouts) The kitchen is incredibly consistent. If you happen to be there for New Year's Eve, their prix fixe meal is always a massive hit. Over our various trips, we've pretty much dialed in our favorite orders: Breakfast Staples: * The Silverado Breakfast: My standard go-to. Two eggs over easy, solid morning potatoes, your choice of bacon or sausage (I alternate), and an English muffin. * The Hashes: Both the Duck Confit Hash and the Corned Beef Hash are outstanding. They come with poached eggs, peppers, onions, potatoes, and a rich, perfectly executed béarnaise sauce. * Cinnamon Sugar Donut Holes: Do not skip these. They are incredibly decadent, warm, and absolute perfection. * To Drink: Order "The E-C" juice. It's a fresh blend of carrot, pineapple, and orange that wakes you right up. Dinner Highlights: * Grilled Yellowfin Tuna: Served with charred carrots, chile scallion oil, mole amarillo, and pumpkin seeds. I could honestly eat this plate all day long. * Crispy Saint Louis Ribs: The tamarind espresso BBQ sauce on these is unbelievable, balanced out nicely with fresno chiles and puffed wild rice. * Duck Banh Mi: A killer twist on a classic, packed with charred scallion hoisin, quick pickles, fresh herbs, and a kick of sriracha. * Hawaiian Hamachi Crudo: Incredibly fresh and vibrant, paired with an English pea miso puree, watermelon radish, pomelo, and a sharp shoyu vinaigrette. Whether you're stopping by for a casual breakfast or a multi-course holiday dinner, Solbar delivers every single time. It's a massive reason why we keep coming back to Calistoga.
