    One of the Napa Valley’s hidden gems. Always amazing food and service. They are a ‘no tip’ restaurant that takes great care of their team and it shows in all areas. Highly recommended!!

    Amazing service, food and ambiance. My favorite dish was the Impossible Lasanga (made less impossible with 3 cheese blend) and the Hot Mess dessert. I greatly appreciated that both were gluten free. Strongly recommend!
