Ubuntu Napa
writes...
Ubuntu's food is primarily grown in our own gardens, following the principle of biodynamic farming. Biodynamic farmers place high emphasis on healing and supplying the earth with ingredients that encourage regeneration. Our chef Aaron London and his team begin each morning at the gardens, and prepare dishes that bring out the natural flavors of the herbs and vegetables. Ubuntu restaurant is a manifestation of a dream to bring together many of the things that our owner Sandy Lawrence enjoys in the hope that it may benefit others.

I have been looking forward to the opportunity to try this restaurant for years, but was ultimately disappointed with the experience. The kitchen had a handful of misses, which I don't expect from a Michelin-starred restaurant. The Ribollita was served in an awkward dish; though this would have been my favorite course, the dish took away from the quality of the composition. Raw shaved carrots on a rich chocolate dessert was similarly awkward. The carrots were dry and not very sweet, which did not play well with the richness of the cake. I was also disappointed in the service for the table next to ours, which was not informed before the kitchen was to close and was therefor not able to order their full meal.

Ubuntu is for the consumate foodie. If you are not interested in creative dining, this place is NOT for you. The food is inventive, creative, different, interesting and must be explained. The cost of a meal is on the high side. The staff is wonderful and welcoming.

Ubuntu is doing something that no one else (that I know of on the West Coast) is doing, and doing it with style, grace and love. Our 2nd time in 6 months for under a 2 hr. drive and we didn't know they were taking a winter hiatus; what great fortune that we were here on the 2nd to last night before the temporary break. One of the few top 10 on our list and we won't dream of coming to Napa without eating here at least once, knowing there are many great places to dine in the area. Try the tasting menu for full fun and scrumptious surprises. The food is amazingly innovative and tasty, the service attentive and warm, the decor hip yet down to earth. Knowing the food is so healthy is a huge plus. We will patiently wait for the re-opening!

Once again, Ubuntu hit dinner out of the park. Even the skeptics in my dinner party were won over by the non-meat menu. The richness and varied flavors and textures of the grains, veg and legumes left us completely satisfied and amazing at the creativity of chef, Aaron. The disappointments came after the main courses were cleared in the slow service and the horrible desserts. I've had a wonderful cheesecake in a jar dessert before (thanks to former pastry chef, Deanie Fox) but this visit I discovered flat, overly contrived dessert dishes attempting to center on Fall root vegetables (carrot, yam, turnip). Still the apps & mains were so amazing that we laughed off the horrible dessert offerings.
