Diner Reviews

"We were there for lunch and the food was fresh, delicious and beautifully presented. We had the grilled artichokes, an heirloom tomato salad, fried green tomatoes with pimiento cheese, a beet salad, lamb sliders, open egg over grits and greens and the shrimp Louie. Every dish was outstanding!!!"

"Lively and fun spot for dinner with great appetizers and desserts! Would have liked a few more options for the main courses. Can't beat the location and ambiance."

"Farmstead is like visiting an upscale farm. No snootiness here, the food is great - a nice menu with wide variety of items. The presentation of the food is beautiful and it tastes as good as it looks. Sitting inside or out is lovely. The scenery, in beautiful wine country, can't be beat. This is a number one favorite when I come to St. Helena."

"Freshest food around prepared perfectly. Everything locally sourced. We tried a variety of dishes for apps and entrees. All were excellent. Great wait staff that was very attentive. All in all wonderful experience"

"From the moment we arrived we knew this was a very special place. The atmosphere, music and inviting decor was second only to the food which was a slice of heaven! We will definitely be back soon! THANK YOU!"

"The BBQ ribs are a must try here. Also the meatball appitizer and the biscuits were fantastic. Too much food to try tempting desserts."

"my favorite spot for lunch whenever i'm in napa. the cheddar biscuits are a must, and adding an egg to any entree is always a great idea. the house-made gnocchi was phenomenal, and the mac and cheese was perfect. our server was very knowledgeable and super friendly. can't wait to go back!"

"We dine every summer at Farmstead because the food is always good. Love the outside bar area with the live country music. Staff makes great food suggestions."

"Had a nasty server which put a damper on the evening. She couldn't open the wine so we had to do it. She didn't bring glasses. Took forever to get the food and when it arrived it wasn't all that good. A lot of money for a meal that I could have whipped up at home."
Dined on 7/16/2014
"Food was very good although a little pricey. We went there for a special occasion. Would probably not make it a go-to spot for average weekday dining out. We are Napa residents and would definitely take visitors here for lunch. Scenic and comfortable."

"Dined with my wife while visiting Napa Valley. This place has everything you want in a Napa dining experience. Farm to table with only the best produce and meats. Beautiful grounds and top notch service. Ask for a table outside if possible for the best area. The grilled artichokes are the best I have ever had and the cheddar biscuits are addicting."

"While on our trip to San Francisco with our toddler and myself pregnant we wanted to take a trip to napa. We found this gem which was the first place that felt modern, warm but kid friendly. The first restaurant we went to that provided crayons and a kids menu. They had great open space for our son to explore and run around. The food was delicious and prompt. They even put my sons order in first to get it out faster. I would go again."

"Definitely a great find, we try to stop here every time we go through St. Helena. Food is always excellent and what else can you ask right?"
Dined on 7/12/2014
"Food was excellent, but service was just ok. It was not bad, but the servers did not seem to be happy , did not smile nor did they make you feel welcome. Sign of times in Napa...as a great food location but service seems to suffer across the board."

"Food was great, ambiance was excellent, server Molly and bartender Greg were especially good, I really enjoyed the experience"

"excellent food and service. In a town that goes to sleep early this is the place for staying awake some more."
Dined on 7/11/2014
"I love Farmstead. The food fresh, flavorful, and prepared perfectly. The menu changes seasonally so there is always something new. They grow their own produce at the farm. The service is amazing. And, the ambiance is perfectly Napa."

"Like too many places in 'wine country' another restaurant better for lunch than dinner. Two in our party liked their salmon. Other two had the hamburger. Strange 'sauce' on the burger (dijon please but they don't have it) House ketchup -- weird taste. Wish some of these chefs would stick to the tried and true basics instead of getting too 'creative' Again... go for lunch - sit outside. But for dinner, entree execution doesn't justify the price P.S. the corkage policy is very nice especially since what's on their wine list is overpriced for this type of restaurant"

"I've been to Farmstead 3 times and have not been disappointed with any of them. Being from Washington State, I've only come down twice so I've ordered the ribs each time. I dream of them in between visits. This time I swapped potato salad for the cole slaw since the cole slaw just doesn't do it for me. Potato salad didn't look that great on the plate, but tasted fantastic. I was a little disappointed this time in the cookie selection. Didn't seem like they were as good as my last visit. Dry and not full of flavor like before. I still give them a 5 for fast and friendly service."

"We have been coming to farmstead every year since they opened and it truly gets better each time! This time around might have been our best so far. Started out a little questionably as our waiter failed to tell us about the specials although we learned about them from the table next to us. Every course outdid itself! Do not miss the kale salad and the grilled artichokes to start. The wild salmon entree and smoked ribs were hard to beat! Cocktails at the out side bar make the visit worth it just for the ambience and great music. Do not miss Farmstead - you will not be disappointed!"

"Went on a recommendation from a local winery. Fantastic atmosphere, food and service. Can't wait to go back someday."
Dined on 7/6/2014
"They sat our party of four outside in a "booth" surrounded by esplanaded apple trees - very unique and pleasant. You could make a meal from the starters, they were all super fresh and delicious. Great value too."
Dined on 7/5/2014
"My wife had the double lamb chop sauce was good but very little meat. I had the ribs large portion but mostly bone and fat What little meat was very tough. BBQ sauce was very tasty. the cole slaw had no flavor whatsoever. Will not go back. Too many good restaurants in our area to be served below par food."
Dined on 7/4/2014
"Great food. Fantastic service. One of the teens felt the gnocchi was tough and it was removed from the bill with no questions asked other than what can we do to make this right for you? My trout was excellent. The pork chop perfect. Unfortunately they'd sold out of the ribs which we know from previous visits are killer good. The dessert we chose was the sundae - omg delicious. We brought a bottle of wine from our wine tasting earlier in the day and paid the minimal corkage that they give to a charitable organization. Love that!"
Dined on 7/3/2014
"The food is great; Service is wonderful. Love strolling through the vegetable garden and doing some wine tasting afterwards. They also have olive oil and a great cabernet sauvignon wine vinegar that we bought. Used it to make salad dressing."
Dined on 7/3/2014
"Interesting and delicious menu, fine craft beers and cocktails. Our party of 4 had patio dining for lunch and we enjoyed it completely! Fast and friendly service, but you never felt rushed. Our server made some excellent recommendations and was always attentive. Some say it is loud inside and that the vastness "echos", but we didn't notice it waiting for our table and I liked the outside dining anyway. The lovely gardens and old fashioned general store are reminiscent of a tranquil country farm... you don't even realize there is a major road just yards away. When in the Napa Valley, stop by!"

"We loved the fresh flavorful taste! And the atmosphere was awesome."
Dined on 7/2/2014
"Great location with great interior decoration. Beautiful terrace and outstanding high quality products. Price level high for mostly simple dishes but that's probably because of the location in the wine area. Food was very tasty but very rich and heavy. It is a huge place we haven't expected that. Fully booked and crowded and way too cold inside because of the aircondition. So you didn't feel very comfy for having dinner there."
Dined on 7/1/2014
"Amazing overall experience! Farmstead was recommended by a friend based on the cheddar biscuits and it over delivered across the board. The ambiance was fantastic, food was incredible and the staff was knowledgable and friendly. Cade winery told us the burger was the best in town and it absolutely was. The slow-roasted pulled pork sandwich with potato salad was beyond belief. We were there for my birthday lunch and it was the perfect spot! Great vibe and energy but not too loud. The decor was great and the restrooms were really clean. Would have loved to have sat outside but it was 100 degrees! We're planning to visit again in the Fall. I highly recommend Farmstead to anyone who visits the area."

"Farmstead is one of those restaurants that no matter what you order you know it will be good. The Tuesday fried chicken is a must try, ribs are fantastic. The ham & cheese bisquits, caramelized beet salad, the gnocchi with beef ragu....you won't be disappointed!"
Dined on 6/29/2014
"We always make a reservation at Farmstead for a special occasion. The food and service were outstanding. I had the leg of lamb special and my husband had the Heritage pork chop; both were excellent. Our server was informative and attentive. As always we had a wonderful time and will return soon for our next special occasion or just because. We highly recommend dining outside on the patio."
Dined on 6/29/2014
"Food was fine but not great. Restaurant is very cool inside. It's pretty casual and very country chic. Mac n chz is delish Ribs over cooked and dry Pork pot bland and fatty Oysters good. Sundae was average. Was told it had vanilla ice cream but didn't. Very cool corkage program that was a $5 donation to a local charity"

"Great place to stop on the way to hot springs. The service, food presentation and preparation are excellent. We like their outdoor tables, feel comfortable there even in our outdoor cloths."

"The food was wonderful, especially the meat balls. It was really nice dinning outdoors, it was almost like we had a private alcove. The band at the bar was playing some great music (although the second band was pretty awful). The service was pleasant but first brought out the wrong wine, then the right wine but no glasses and finally dinner, but no forks. It may have gotten a 5 had the service been a little better and the second lead singer been a lot better!"
Dined on 6/27/2014
"This was only my second time at Farmstead, but the food was so good the first time I dreamed of coming back! Since it was later in the afternoon we decided to stick with just appetizers. You have to have the ham sandwiches (you will dream of them). We also had the steak tartar, artichokes and meatballs. They were all equally delicious. I am already looking forward to my next trip!"

"Farmstead has become one of our go to places for lunch when visiting Napa. Love the food, atmosphere and service."
Dined on 6/27/2014
"an inviting relaxed farm like setting in what previously had been a nursery, and now having a garden, orchard, and lawns surrounding the barn like interior seating. The menu has tempting delicious combinations - and all are rather ample in size. The salads have excellent selections including a kale salad, also a peach selection, and the entrees have impressive combinations - like salmon with sweetcorn, zucchini,string beans vegetables and they have a nice selection of desserts - we had a special of fresh peach pie (from their trees) and peach ice cream - the pie was big enough for at least 3 persons. Excellent attentive service and price is moderate."
Dined on 6/25/2014
"Thursday's fried chicken is a weekly must. My only criticism is that they may be too generous with the portions. Beautiful, spacious restaurant with a great bar. The menu is interesting and we've always be very pleased with the food. LMR is one of our best restaurants here in St. Helena."
