    I took 3 Italians who are in Napa interning in the wine business. They were delighted and said it was the first real Italian food they had since arriving in the States. Every dish was delicious and according to my guests, authenic Italian.

    Incredible food. Every. Single. Thing! Service was perfect, and friendly too. Ambiance is fairly bright and very convivial. I would say the noise level was high, the music didn’t help. A bit too loud to converse with my guest without talking really too loudly. Fortunately, we had a table in the upstairs loft where it was noticeably quieter. Dinner with 2 entrees, one shared salad, one bottle of bubbles, 2 desserts, and 2 coffees was $250 total. (The bubbles alone were $76). So, be prepared to spend some $$! Overall though, the food and service was worth it. Excellent place for a treat night out!!

    Wonderful food, but we do wish that the servings would be a little larger, especially for the money we are locals and we come often so we would appreciate having a little bit more food and a serving. Thank you for your kindness

    Tuna carpaccio was amazing! It would be even a more perfect dinning experience if servers were not in such hurry to take your plate out of the way when you are still eating your appetizer!

    As a Napa native and someone who also works in the industry, this place is one of my favorite go-to spots whenever I get off early enough from work. This place is owned by bistro don Giovanni so it’s no surprise that this location is just as good if not better since it’s in a more convenient spot. I’ve never had a bad dining experience here wether it’s dining at an actual table or sitting at the bar, mind you this place in the heart of downtown so it can be fairly busy so sometimes the service is just a tad bit slower than other nights but that’s just the name of the game which I don’t mind. The food is amazing especially the pizzas and tiramisu which I’m addicted to especially when paired up with a carajillo which is one of the best drinks they make. Ther service is always on point, friendly knowledgeable and attentive but yet not overbearing.
