    The food and service were exceptional as always. We've been visiting Mustard's Grill since 1986 and celebrated a birthday this time. The onion rings were incredible, the crab cakes, salads and hanger steak were outstanding. Eric provided excellent service. Our favorite Napa Valley restaurant.

    We eventually had an amazing time but we had to ask for a different server as soon as we sat down because the one who was waiting on us was so obnoxiously rude. It was a birthday celebration surprise and one of us was emailing a video to our birthday girls husband and the waiter got annoyed - banged the glass for everyone’s attention and because my friend didn’t put her phone down he just walked away and didn’t take our order. It was seriously one of the rudest things I had ever seen. So we asked for a different server. The bartender waited on us and she was amazing. Food outstanding. Appetizers especially were all delicious. Steak tartar was my favorite.

    Our party of eight enjoyed a delicious meal together made possible by the genuinely friendly and informative staff. Our server told us about the menu and clarified what was gluten free (turns out almost all the menu could be made gluten free) and shared what dishes they offered for kids. The water was delicious served with a thin slice of lemon and cucumber and they were excellent with refilling water glasses. Our meals were great - one of the few restaurants I've been to where everyone left complimenting something they ate. We hope to visit again soon.
