    We reserved a table for Christmas Day dinner. It was outstanding! Valet parking was included with validation. The staff were warm and friendly, and added to the festive atmosphere wearing Christmas-themed attire. 4 course meal with plenty of options. The food tasted great and was custom paired with a different Napa Valley wine for each course. Best Christmas dinner I’ve ever had… and that’s saying a lot, considering I’ve had over 50 years of experience. Thanks for an amazing experience!

    This was our second visit, and equally exceptional! Service was absolutely fantastic and the food was delicious. We shared a main dish and it was brought out split for us. Bread and dips were so good, wine was perfectly chilled (and we didn’t order an expensive bottle), salad was fresh, the pasta with vodka sauce was amazing, and the affogato was perfection! Will definitely be back!
