Food Scene

Some of the most creative dishes in Napa. Chef Sean O'Toole always knocks it out of the park. Make sure you get the Pakora's as a "bite" to start with.

Great old fashioned breakfasts. Excellent quality, inexpensive (for Napa!) and things like real maple syrup. They also know what the term “crispy bacon” means too! Insiders tip, if the wait is long go right next door to the bar. Owned by the same people and you can have breakfast there. Never a wait.

Local vintner Judd Finkelstein always wanted a cocktail after a day of wine so he decided to just open up his own bar. Great cocktails inspired from around the world and some small bites of you need to nosh. Don’t miss the warm, homemade chocolate chip cookie if it’s late and you have the munchies.

Wineries and wine excursions

These are some of my favorite wineries, most of which do need advance reservations. It's customary to purchase wine when tasting at private wineries as this is how they survive. Some will have tasting fees that will be refunded with a purchase but make sure you inquire about their policy.
Pam Starr is just that, a "STAR" winemaker in Napa Valley since the mid 80's. This is a charming, laid back winery and experience, with price points that appeal to all buyers.

Famed Bordeaux Chateau Smith Haut-Lafitte owners Florence and Daniel Cathiard have transformed a late 1800's stone winery into pure magic. The wines are remarkable. Tasting fee, but truly a worthwhile splurge.

If you’re a wine geek and looking for the winery that has more wines made from Beckstoffer Vyds, well, this would be your nirvana. All selections are great and their food & wine pairing is amazing. Highly recommended if you’re looking to see how food & wine work together.

One of Napa's most iconic properties, The Staglin's year in and year out produce stunning Cabernet and for me, Napa's most lovely Chardonnay (since Napa isn't really known for great Chard). I ran Direct to Consumer Sales and their Wine Club for 3.5 years and can tell you their commitment to the quality of the wine they produce knows no bounds. Highly recommended.
