Always a fabulous choice for a special lunch. We were there to celebrate a birthday. The day was perfect for the beginning of December, the patio was warm and one could still see a brush of fading color on the leaves of the vines. You can see quite a bit into the distance. Our waitstaff as always were extremely attentive. We had superb recommendation on the wine. Our lunch was very good. The food here is consistently good and so I never hesitate to make reservations for special days. Thank you Auberge for another lovely lunch. We’ll be back.

Although we have enjoyed many meals at Auberge, NEVER eat here on a major holiday. Our Thanksgiving was a disaster from slipshod service to mediocre food for a hugely inflated price. At least the valets were competent

Do not order the prime beef pave. The meat was to tough to cut or chew. The restaurant was kind enough to remove it from the bill without even requesting. Every other menu item we had was excellent - especially the pan seared yellow fin tuna. The atmosphere was quiet sophistication. The music was purely background and conversations were quiet. Perfect date night. Service could not be better.

Best meal (and overall dining experience) of our week-plus trip, same as when we traveled (for longer) in April. Happy to see a few new items on the brunch menu, along with some old favorites. I'd hoped the ratatouille in squash blossoms would still be available, but the orange-glazed butternut squash with medjool dates was a delightful replacement. For the main course, the Iberian pork was moist and the side dishes, including the Swiss chard, complemented it well. And the semi-traditional pumpkin custard dessert was out of this world (I'm not a big fan of the avant-garde desserts that the pastry chef is known for). My companion raved about the risotto, the third time in a row that she has ordered risotto at Auberge. Of course the service was exemplary (many thanks to Cesar!) and the view spectacular. Even the soft jazz made for a lovely and relaxed atmosphere. We can't wait to return.

Wonderful evening at the Restaurant at Auberge du Soleil.

The food was prepared perfectly. The location was wonderful with really nice ambiance.

The food and service here was excellent . I have dined here a number of times and not been disappointed with either . However this time I had a very bad experience . My husband and I checked in and were seated at a table with a beautiful view of the vineyards . We were just settling in when the hostess comes over and informs us that if we move tables we will get better service . That made no sense but we moved without a fuss . Of course the truth of the matter was the original table was for 2 guests perceived to be more”important “ than us . My advice , don’t ever treat anyone like this .All people are equal .

Beautiful location and the service was impeccable. I had the fairytale pumpkin bisque, Iberian pork chop and chocolate mousse. The soup and dessert were phenomenal and I'll dream about the chocolate mousse. However, the pork chop was overcooked and dry. I would have hoped that the main dish would have been better.
