Our server did an excellent job of offering some menu adjustments. \n\nWe had the Endive cups, Beet salad, Apple and mixed green salad, spicy almost Bolognese and for dessert the Snickers bar. Everything was not only delicious, but presented beautifully. We visited on a Wednesday, which also allowed for no corkage fee.

From the moment I walked in, there was an undeniable authenticity that permeated the air. The owner and staff exuded genuine happiness, evident in their pride as they served dishes crafted with care and passion.\n\nIt felt akin to being welcomed into someone's home, where every detail had been meticulously prepared just for me. The dedication of the chefs was palpable; they held themselves to a standard of excellence that shone through in every bite.\n\nSpeaking of bites, the bolognese was an absolute revelation, a symphony of flavors that lingered on the palate long after the meal ended. And if you're feeling adventurous, ask for the truffle butter twist—it's a game-changer.\n\nBut it's not just the food that's exceptional; the wine selection is a testament to the artistry of the establishment. The staff and owner are more than happy to regale you with tales of each vintage, adding another layer to the dining experience.\n\nIn essence, Lovina isn't just a restaurant; it's a haven of warmth and hospitality. It's a place where passion for food and genuine care for guests converge, leaving an indelible mark on anyone fortunate enough to dine there.

A locals favorite in historic craftsman home, with lovely heated/ shaded patios. Lovina is uniquely tip-free; our pricing includes a living wage, 401k with employer match, two weeks paid vacation, paid sick leave, and health/ dental insurance benefits for all our hard-working employees! Recognized as "Best of the Best" on Trip Adviser for Vegan/ Gluten-Free options, Lovina also satisfies omnivores with locally famous Bolognese and wild Halibut. Our menu is seasonal and locally sourced. Woman-owned by Calistoga local Jennifer Bennett (previous owner of Zazie restaurant in SF), Lovina is unique & welcoming. We feature Jen's handmade pottery, thrown, glazed, and at her home studio here in Calistoga.
Our heated, covered East Patio is perfect for up to 30 guests, and the newly remodeled West patio seats up to 40, with room for a bar and cocktail hour. We also have two private rooms inside for smaller groups of 6-8.
There is one handicapped parking space available; the rest of the parking lot has been converted to a patio for outdoor dining during the Covid-19 restrictions, but there is ample street parking in Calistoga.
Public transit
The Vine transit bus stop is located just half a block from Lovina. Calistoga Shuttle, a local public van, stops right at our front.

We loved it so much we went back for brunch the next day. This place is so special - it's like dining in someone's home as their guest. So cozy and welcoming, and the food is outstanding. Love to support restaurants and business owners that take such good care of their employees. It will be the first reservation we make on our next trip to Calistoga!

We sat upstairs in the quant house for a romantic dinner. It was lovely except for a large party in the same room. They were fine but it was not ideal. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals & the server was excellent, attentive & genuine. Would def go back but maybe sit in the courtyard next time.

Good food, but service was lacking. Took a while to get greeted at the table and served water. Our sever didn't check on us until we had finished our main course. I like the fact they include tip in the price of the food, but that removes the incentive for the server to provide exceptional service. Probably not going to recommend or return.
