    Visited The Bitter Bar for a nightcap. It was a bit hard to find as the previous spot here was a Speakeasy. The menu has some unique options and pairings to try. My husband got the DILLIGAF and I the Dishing in the Dirt. The portions were a bit small for the cost of each drink. While the cocktails were well balanced, I didn't leave feeling blown away. This was a great spot to try, staff was extremely nice, and I loved the cocktail glasses!

    Great time on an Industry Night. Local feel and nice drinks. Recommend going if you just need a break from wine.

    I found this cute place while walking down the street and saw the word distillery in wine country…read more The cocktails were definitely crafted and Gabby was my mixologist. She made me a great ol' fashion with her choice. Since I'm originally from Kentucky, I was a little skeptical of a distillery in Napa Valley. However, I was pleasing surprised that they offered a whiskey flight that was actually great. I'll be returning for other things...FOR SURE!

    This was a pleasant find- as it was something that felt uniquely different to the area. While…read morefollowing their social media, they advertised a new spring cocktail- Wabi Sabi. With a wasabi and fennel infused vodka, it was too unique not to be curious about. Upon arriving and looking over the menu, SEVERAL cocktails stood out to me as intriguing to try. I started with the Wabi Sabi which was as interesting as it sounded. While I didn't pick up on fennel, you do pick up on the wasabi, but in the most subtle of ways. Think maybe lime/ginger sparkling water with just a hint of spice. Refreshing and different for sure. I also tried the Mucha Lucha w/ cilantro infused Siete Leguas Blanco, chorizo infused mezcal and cubes made of hot sauce that make the drink have a bit more of a kick as you allow them to melt. I did the HH chips and guac which was also accompanied with a tasty Chipotle sauce. Damn good actually. It'd be excellent served in a variety of ways. The deviled eggs aren't going to blow your mind, but I like that you get 4 different ones- and simply because I love eggs, I'd order them again. (They just wouldn't be a dish that brings me back). The bartender was great- helpful and attentive, even as more people began to filter in for an early afternoon. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Napa to check out some other menu options.

I won't bother with the things I liked after my card was used for fraudulent online purchases by someone at this location and I believe it was the male bartender...who I just happened to take photos of. I used cash and credit card everywhere accept here where I used my debit card with the male bartender. My friends used their cards with the female bartenders that arrived later and had no issues/fraudulent transactions. I don't know how it happened as I still had my ATM card, but as I headed home that evening I got a fraud alert showing 7 transactions just under 400 made at an online thrift store. They attempted an 8th purchase which was declined by my bank and the only reason I was notified. The place wasn't packed (Maybe 6 other ppl outside my group) and no one else was close enough to scan or get my card information from me other than the male bartender. My bank told me after investigating it was initiated from a Napa IP address and no, I don't live in Napa and of course i didn't make these purchases. I'm filling out a police report as well in hopes this won't happen to anyone else and to ensure that there are consequences for the person that did this. Just made a great day into a foul experience.

    Been coming here with my pup to watch the World Cup games and this spot is the vibe!…read more A few things I've had over my last few visits and my thoughts on each 1. Steak frites: steak was meh but perfect medium rare. Fries were deliciously crispy for steak fries 2. Fried chicken sandwhich: very mid 3. Chicken wings: I did dry rub with the sauces on the side. I liked the ranch with the umami, but im not a fan of the smoked chicken. 4. Burrata: mid 5. Poke tostadas: best thing I've had on their menu and they don't have it anymore. I wanted to cry when they told me 6. Salted caramel pudding with shortbread pieces and macadamia nuts, hold the nuts: absolutely delicious dessert, very sweet! 7. Smash burger: pretty good. I'd get two patties next time Drinks 1. Float the River: hold the grapefruit. It was boozy s as heck 2. Dirty Shirley: decent 3. Cucumber drink: This was an off menu drink they used to make for me and then stopped making it. Maybe they ran out of cucumber? Idk. But bring them back! Wow I really been coming here for a minute. Love the vibes. Great spot to watch the World Cup games. They welcome dogs. Sometimes they bring my pup treats, sometimes not. I appreciate when they do.

From the outside it doesn't look like a garden or even a beer garden but this place is a full on sports bar. The US mens national team was playing at noon for the world cup but we showed up at 10:30 am. The owner told us he was stressed because the whole place was reserved and packed for the game which wasn't very welcoming. The servers looked extremely busy so we kept having to ask whoever ran by for something we needed. The food, thankfully , was spectacular. I had the biscuit breakfast sandwich no cheese with sausage and I wish I could have fit another in my stomach. The biscuit was huge and flaky and tender and the eggs were fluffy. I shared it with my kid with a side of tots and it was scrumptious. I asked for the aioli on the side but it was lemony with a spicy kick. I hadn't had something like that but it was a nice fresh creamy taste with the tots and sandwich.

The service was not great, but the food was great. The server failed to provide the daily specials, which we heard from the next table when shared by another server, and we felt rushed. We would've stayed longer to enjoy another drink but it seemed that the server was motivated to close the transaction. I ordered a glass of a brut rose, Caesar salad, Oysters on the Half Shell and Linguine with Clams. We had the pleasure of deciding if we wanted oysters from the east or west coast with a brief descriptor of the differences from each source. The pasta was amazing! It was flavorful without the heavy feeling that can be found in some pasta dishes. You could also tell that the clams were fresh.
