The - Rutherford

Auberge is one of our favorite places in Napa! We recently attended the Jubilee dinner there, and it was an incredible experience. The atmosphere was charming, the service was top-notch, and the food was exquisite! For a Michelin-starred restaurant, the lunch prices are quite reasonable. Just the ambiance makes it worth the visit. We dined under the warm sun, enjoying views of the gentle hills and vineyards, and each dish was beautifully balanced and expertly prepared. The pork chop was especially remarkable—so tender and juicy, even though my partner and I usually aren't fans of pork chops. The desserts were delightfully fruity and light, providing a perfect conclusion to the meal. Even with just three courses, we were so full that we could barely manage dinner later that night!

This Michelin-starred restaurant boasts a beautiful outdoor terrace with breathtaking views. It serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with dinner options including either 3 or 4 courses and an extensive selection of dishes, including delightful desserts. It’s truly the best restaurant in the Napa region, as it gives you the freedom to choose your meals instead of being limited to set tasting menus!

The restaurant has a stunning ambiance, but unfortunately, the food and service didn't quite live up to our expectations. I had arranged the reservation through my Amex concierge, but we faced a few issues during our visit: we found a hair in our scarf and a fly in one of the beers. While the waitress tried her best to address these problems, we were hoping for a bit more care and attention to detail. The food was decent but not particularly memorable, and the service was quite slow; it took an hour from the time we were seated, which ultimately led us to cancel our reservation in Calistoga. On the bright side, the spa was very accommodating with rescheduling. The view from the restaurant significantly enhanced our experience, and I would recommend visiting just for the scenery and fresh air!

This is a gorgeous location with stunning views of Napa Valley, and the food was outstanding as well. My partner found her main dish to be somewhat lacking, but she really enjoyed the other dishes. I ordered the duck for my main course and absolutely loved it. The service was incredibly attentive and very well-trained. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner.
