Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Napa

Ambiance is friendly, open, casual, comfortable. We were sat at a table with a view of the kitchen. I had a glass of sauvignon blanc and my husband had Napa beer on tap. He ordered a half order of deviled eggs as an appetizer. He said it was very good, but I wouldnt try it because it was made with pickled onions. I ordered the roasted chicken dinner that came with mashed potatoes and "seasonal vegetables". The chicken was very moist and tender with a slightly crisped skin. The mashed potatoes were creamy and delicious. I was a bit disappointed that the seasonal vegetable was just cooked carrot chunks, but it was good. My husband had italian sausage pizza. He ordered it without red onions. He read that the sausage was made there at the restaurant. He said it was very delicious. The sausage was yummy and he liked the pizza crust- a soft flatbread, a bit crispy at the edges. The drinks and food were very good and the wait staff were friendly and attentive. Prices were a bit on the higher side, but reasonable. There was an eclectic mix of dishes on the menu and a few things I would like to try, such as phad thai, pha, salmon, and my husband was thinking about the steak meal, so we will most likely be back!

Celadon is a beautiful restaurant tucked away along the Napa riverfront. The entry is stunning! To get into the main entrance, you walk through a tunnel of greenery. At this time of year, they have it covered in tiny white lights and holiday decorations and it makes a perfect picture taking moment! The restaurant staff are very polite and attentive. The menu offers a variety of French and American cuisine. They had a lobster risotto and Coq au vin that was super delicious and melted in your mouth! Overall, I gave it a 4 star rating. It was a little pricey and they only have one shared bathroom inside. There are more restrooms located just outside the front entrance, but it was cold and there was no heat.

Such a lovely welcome dinner for our first night in Napa. I highly recommend the braised pork belly and the beet salad for appetizers, and the cassoulet and steak-frite for the main course. I didn’t care much for the chocolate cake—I found it a bit dry, but based on the rest of the incredible food we enjoyed, I’m more than happy to come back and try their other desserts. Come eat here for your first night in this beautiful town!

Great food, great wine, great service. We hope to go back when we are in Napa.

This is as my 2nd visit here. First visit was drinks and sitting around the fire pit which was nice. Enjoyed the ambience, kid friendly, outdoor venue. Simple ordering with barcode scan, made it convenient for large parties of you want to order separately. Beverages were good. Heat lamps near every table, really worked as it was a cold night. Play are for the kids and live music for the adults. Very good experience, food served quickly and delicious.
