   We love Backdoor Bistro. Great food, great service, and a cool vibe. Our waiter was awesome, as was the young lady filling water glasses and taking away plates. Everyone is always very polite. My only wish is that they would bring back their fried chicken and add it to the weekend menu. Also, a little surf and turf would be a perfect addition to the menu.

   Very nicely decorated for Valentine’s Day. 5 course pre fix menu was delicious! I was full by the time I finished my entree so I was only able to eat 2 bites of my dessert. It was delicious! My husband had enough room to finish my dessert for me. We both loved our meal!

   Food was very good and presentation was appealing; service was very good ; only wish ambience could be better, restaurant gets very noisy; overall food and service make up for the lack of ambience

   The food was something we’d find in our favorite Napa Valley restaurants. We’re big wine & food enthusiasts and the dining experience was excellent. We’re big wine enjoyed the whole experience.

   Food is good, but the acoustics in the restaurant are bad so it’s very loud causing a hard time to hear people at your table. Have experienced this every time I’ve been at the restaurant.

   The food was very good although a little pricey for what you got. The noise level was through the roof. The tables were very close together making it hard to get in or out. The service was only so-so. The plates from the starter course were not cleared before the entrees arrived and the server couldn't handle removing the used plates and placing the entrees in its place. The waiter rarely checked in to see if our needs were met. All in all, very tasty food and the service could use some improvement.

   We had the flat iron steak with risotto. The steak was a little fatty and tough but decent flavor. The risotto was really good. The kale salad was very good!
