    Excellent Sunday brunch with so many options. Bottomless mimosas, egg menu, lunch selections, make it a great buffet for $25!

    Napa River is always a great place to eat. The service is top notch. I typically get their filet and it is one of the best in town.

    My sisters and I had the Sunday buffet today. One of the Eggs Benedict was delivered to the table cold. We sent it back. A second came out very nice. In the ladies restroom the handicap stall had no toilet paper available. The buffet food was excellent except for the salmon which was way too salty. The bread pudding was a dream as was the pecan pies. Dk if we will return again. $25 was a bit steep for our experience.

    We dined at Napa prior to a family graduation ceremony. Our party of 10 had early reservations at 4:45 and some of the party arrived earlier. The large round table was set and ready for our group when we arrived. The restaurant was quiet even when tables began to fill. Our server, Eli, was very personable, attentive and anticipated the needs of our group. We ordered cocktails, bourbon and wine, which everyone enjoyed. Our food came in a reasonable amount of time for quality. We ordered the smash burgers, two kinds of salad (Caesar and Beet), Pad Thai, tomato soup, pasta dishes. Everyone raved about their food. The people who ordered Pad Thai commented it was spicier than they expected. All food had good flavor and was the right temperature for the item. Hot food was hot and cold foods came out cold. We had to head out for the graduation ceremony or we would have definitely stayed for dessert. Overall, we enjoyed our meal together and I would recommend Napa River Grill. I’m sure we’ll be back again.

    It was awkwardly dead and service was a little slow. My guess is short-staffed. I’m not sure what’s going on as they have always been very good and busy but something has changed.

    Restaurant called and asked if we could come sooner, we got there 15 min early, waited 33 min to place drink order. One drink was warm when we finally received them. Places order had to ask for salt and pepper, had to ask for soy sauce came in a dish and was spilled. Salmon was cold and didn’t have much flavor, thai pad was good sitting in water with no flavor.

    Attempted to go to dinner after the Derby. Place was pretty quiet, one large party and another table. Was unaware they were only offering a pre fixe menu at $80/pp. Full menu was not offered for this evening which was why I booked this place. That said, staff is super nice and they make a great cosmo.

    We have a pre-fixe menu that was really good. Our waiter potentially had a large number if tables. I took quite a while for our orders to be taken and our food to arrive. Even when the restaurant had emptied out, it was still a delay in our service.

    I have loved Napa since DuPont days. But I’m really trying hard to stay in love with this new menu. While I adore the seafood options, I miss so much of the old menu. I was eating the ahi tacos every chance I could. The ahi crudo doesn’t compare and it makes me sad. I love the ambiance. The new outdoor space is gorgeous and the service is always amazing. I just cannot eat the Caesar salad and tomato soup every time I go to Napa.

    Very good food. Service wasn't the best. Our server had a big party in the back room that needed to be served. So we had to wait awhile for our order to be taken. Then when it came time to pay and leave we had to wait for him to serve another big group that came in while we were eating.

    We had problems with our server this visit though normally they are all very good. Our server disappeared several times and the other servers noticing we were low on drinks brought us refills and we even had to get our bill from a different server to pay for our meal. The food was great for a Brunch buffet.

    Our server and additional wait staff were excellent, they could not have been more attentive and helpful. The filet mignon was perfect and the puff pastry tomato soup was as great as ever. Deserts were equally outstanding. Perfect evening of dining before taking our granddaughters to the ballet.

    We were celebrating my husband’s retirement with family and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The food, our waiter and the entire staff was excellent. We had our 8 month old granddaughter with us and she got a little fussy at one point and everyone was so nice ( even the other patrons). Highly recommend!

    Unfortunately we were seated very close to the bar area therefore we picked up all a lot of bar extra conversation some of which I did not enjoy hearing however overall the service was impeccable the bathrooms ran out of soap in both dispensers there was water all over the top of the counter space that’s rather unfortunate because it is a Lovely Pl.,parking is adequate and the receptionist at the door is very cheerful and smiling lovely redhead gentlemen wish I caught his name he was extremely pleasant. The food was OK the lobster tail was way over cooked and tough , cocktail shrimp was excellent, oysters tasted very good, and I love the selection of sauces that was served with them, we had to ask for bread, and our water glasses never got filled up a second time and the potatoes were outstanding so as you can see, is the highs and lows so it averages out about middle of the road but for the mount of money that you pay, which is really high on pricing, it’s kind of sad maybe next time things will be a little bit better, I guess that would explain why on a Friday night at 7 PM the place was only at about a 30% occupancy.
