Walk into TORC and you might notice the music. It's rock & roll, blues, or soul, and it's undeniably on. You might notice the energy — it's high. And you'll definitely notice our bar. It's busy serving well-made cocktails and pouring rare wines we're proud to say you probably won't find anywhere else by the glass. There are no white tablecloths. No dabbing the corners of your mouth. No pomp, but lots of circumstance. And perhaps the only reason you noticed the aforementioned is because you haven't tasted our food. That's when the music fades into the background. Join us.

    Food was very good and the restaurant is so pretty. It's a really beautiful spot. My only complaint is the cost of getting a glass of wine at the RH vault next store while waiting for a table. $70 for 2 glasses seems extreme. Otherwise, loved it.

    Cole's is one of my favorite places in Napa. Why have I not had the veal chop before?? It was SO good! My friends both had the filet mignon, and we shared the lobster mashed potatoes and shoestring onion rings. We were all beyond happy with our meals. Service was topnotch.

    The luncheon menu features unique ingredient combinations, unexpected flavors, innovative menu choices, and locally sourced ingredients, all superbly prepared. The Dungeness crab fondue was terrific. I ordered the Short Rib Ravioli with porcini mushroom ragu, plated with freshly grilled asparagus and topped with pecorino. Every bite was mouth-watering. My guest raved about her Forest Mushroom Risotto. The seasonal pumpkin cheesecake was amazing.
