    Good atmosphere both indoors and outdoor dining. The service was above average. The food is average. Fortunately, food prices are not over-priced. It's tricky making sure you turn off Hwy 29 in time, otherwise, one will miss the restaurant.

    This restaurant had been highly recommended as the best Italian food in the area. We were very disappointed. First, seated in a boot next to the kitchen- very noisy and distracting. Air conditioning vent blowing straight down on us and the weather was was not hot. Food was cold and sub par. Seemed like canned sauce on the pasta and the veal parmesan. Make more flavorful food at home. Our server was unimpressive - distracted and rushed us. He did not check back on the food or our experience.

    The food was delicious and the service excellent, however the table was next to the highway and conversation was very difficult. I have had other lunch meetings that were on the east side of the patio and were able to converse easily but this table was extremely bad.

    Never had a bad meal, bad experience, or bad service at this incredible restaurant. Best outdoor restaurant around. This visit included the always spectacular octopus salad and enormous regular salad (which should be shared). Veal Parmesan, and a special dish of short rib ravioli was over the top fabulous. Too bad it’s not on the everyday menu. Lots of great restaurants in the area for sure … make sure you visit this one.

    Beautiful venue, the perfect atmosphere for Napa Valley. Extensive wine list, I found my perfect red wine. The carpaccio was the best I have ever had.
