First time out in a year! My husband refused to go to any other restaurant in the Napa area.. best oysters and short ribs!
Amazing food!
Well executed during COVID restrictions
Somewhat disappointed in that we were looking forward to a great steak dinner and we were shown a very limited ala carte menu. Perhaps with inside dining resuming we may try again
Thank you for taking the time to write this review. We are disappointed to hear that you felt our menu was quite limiting but hope you find your meal enjoyable. We appreciate your feedback and have passed it along to our Chef team. We hope to see you again soon! -The PRESS team

Loved our waiter Eric and Mikaela the Sommelier. The Rosti and Gnudi were outstanding, as well as the Roasted Chicken and Rib Eye.

We had a Valentines Day dinner with two friends from out of town. The service was excellent as was the food. The location in the courtyard was as perfect as could be expected on a night where it was raining and all while with Covid restrictions were in place. Press is always a favorite when friends come to visit. We will absolutely be back.
Billy97, Thank you for taking the time to write this review. We are happy to hear that you and your friends enjoyed your Valentine's Day experience! We look forward to hosting you again soon. -The PRESS Team
We weren’t happy sitting next to the walkway where the entrance is and asked if there was another table we can sit at. The host says there was not. But we noticed 3 other parties of 2 get seated in other tables with a much better location.
It was our third time at Press. The first two we were seated next to the bathroom. Those times there were other available tables but we didn’t say anything.
We are sorry that your dining experience at PRESS didn’t quite match your expectations. We will be sending you a private message. -The PRESS Team
Everything great, enjoyed tasing menu for Valentines day, do have to say I wish the portions were larger, but that's a compliment. We will be back and look forward to dining inside although the outside worked quite well.
Nate, Thank you for your kind review and for joining us on Valentine's Day! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the tasting menu and outdoor dining. We look forward to hosting you indoors one day soon! -The PRESS Team
Spent Valentine’s Day and everything was lovely
Thank you for your review—it means a lot to us here at PRESS! We hope to see you dining with us again soon. -The PRESS Team
Due to COVID THEY SHRUNK THEIR MENU TO 5 choices only for main dish. No more complimentary bread! The tiniest serving I’ve ever dine for the enormous price. Food was delicious though and ambiance was elegant! When I made reservation they asked what’s the occasion and I said it was my birthday but no one greeted me. No birthday cake!
Baybee, We are sorry that your dining experience at PRESS didn’t quite match your expectations. We will be sending you a private message. -The PRESS Team

Absolutely love this place. This is our second time here. This time was for my wife’s birthday. We sat outside, it was a bit cold but there were patio heaters available. Decor was pretty nice. Email was served on time and staff was very friendly. Excellent flavors and a new experience that was different than the first experience but in a good way!
We are so happy to hear you found our food and service superb. We hope to see you again soon! -The PRESS Team
The food was completely fantastic, inventive flavors beautifully plated. Oysters with cucumber horseradish foam were great and the hamachi was a show stopper. Very pretty location despite having to be outside

I loved this restaurant so much- incredible food and warm, friendly, stellar service. Not an inexpensive venture BUT...,,the kind of place where you go to indulge a little....go to enjoy the “A Level Quality” ....and.....all without one ounce of regret. In fact, it will become a “must have” kind of favorite.

PattyD, Thank you for your glowing review and for choosing to celebrate your anniversary with us. We hope to see you dining with us again soon. -The PRESS Team
Great sommelier and service - they were outstanding during our dinner.
Food is good, but nothing out of this word - maybe because of COVID-19 short menu (I like to believe that!)
JulianaR, Thank you for your review. We are pleased that you enjoyed your experience, but are sorry to hear that you were not blown away by our menu. We will use your feedback to improve. We look forward to your return! -The PRESS Team

We love this place. It's our favorite restaurant that we visit every time we're in town. It's a little over priced. I love risotto but I'm not going to spend $100 on it 😳. But the service, food and drinks are awesome. And it's such a beautiful place!

Spectacular experience. The staff is warm, inviting and very attentive. The food is out of this world. We felt there were extra measures taken throughout our time there to truly make it special. The gnudi melts in your mouth and the salmon had been one of the best preparations I’ve ever had. Great experience.
We are thrilled to hear you loved you dining experience at PRESS. Reviews like this are what make us love what we do! We look forward to your return! -The PRESS Team
What a wonderful lunch. . .treated like royalty and delicious meal. Loved every minute.
Susie, We appreciate you taking the time to write this glowing review. It means a lot to us here at PRESS! We hope to see you soon. -The PRESS Team
Our server was rude and it took forever to get our food.
This was our anniversary weekend that we chose to finish off at PRESS. Before that we went to Joseph Phelps Vineyards and PRESS was just as incredible. Our waiter Eric was most attentive to us throughout the entire evening and the sommelier Andrew was exceptionally helpful in providing us with good wine and even bringing me a selection that I didn't not choose initially but better fit what I told him I wanted.
And eating outside in the middle of the fall in the evening was magnificent because with their standing quiet heaters we weren't freezing! Very comfortable warm temperature.
Thank you to everyone for helping to make this special evening for us an enjoyable one!
JoshuaR, Thank you for your glowing review! We will pass your kind words along to Eric, Chris, and Andrew as we know it'll make their day. We look forward to hosting you again soon. -The PRESS Team
We enjoyed the oysters with horseradish mousse and thinly sliced cucumbers. The presentation of the panna cotta was impressive and it was very delicious as well. The lobster roll was served in a brioche bowl and had a good flavor. The hot Nashville chicken sandwich was certainly tasty. The staff was attentive and friendly. The ambience was perfect as we were settled in between the trees in the outside dining area. It was an amazing experience!
