    We reserved a table Riverside and let them know it was our 40th anniversary. They took very good care of us and are just lovely people. We had their house made Reuben and the Cajun pasta, and they were both very tasty. We will be back.

    Downtown Joe’s is a great stop for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The service is always good and the food is served hot and fresh. In addition Downtown Joe’s has a great selection of craft beers, many of which they brew onsite.

    Beer was good but the food OK to poor. My wife ordered the fish taco. Fish was overcooked and the portions surprisingly small. I ordered a hamburger which was pretty good but maybe not really worth $20. Ambiance could use some work...the place has not been updated in a long time. Definitely better brew pubs out there.

    I had only been here a few times before for drinks on a Saturday night. Decided to try the restaurant for a Sunday brunch. The dining room lofted area was perfect. The views of the river were great and the service staff was friendly and accommodating. We will be back soon.

    Came back after 12 years to celebrate our wedding anniversary and so glad we did! The place still has great beer and food. The general manager made our night extra special and all staff were wonderful! The DJ was awesome and this is a very lively and fun place to have dinner and dance. Will definitely be back anytime we are in Napa 😊

    We’re very disappointed in the restaurant today. We go to uptown theater quite a bit and every time we’re there we go to downtown Joe’s. Because we love the food today The clam chowder was lukewarm and almost tasteless. We had some appetizers that were also very just bland. Service was great. People are great. There were two parties in there that were incredibly loud. I could not hear the waiter and I could barely hear my wife talking. I am not sure we’ll be back next time we go to uptown.
