“The chef's tasting menu is wonderful certainly some of the freshest best prepared and creative dishes I have ever had. The actual interior of the restaurant is stuffy (too warm when I was there) and uninteresting. I was a bit put off by the rather draconian dress code a whole list of "don'ts" for a restaurant that is not in Paris, or even Yountville it is in "outer" Yountville. The waiter captain was stiff but knowledgeable, surrounded by a staff of uninterested high school waiters that explained dishes as if they were a recording. For $210 for lunch, I guess I expected better. The best thing about this place is the food. it is spectacular. It is a shame that the wine list is so stunningly overpriced that no one can afford to have a decent bottle of wine here. $90 Grande Dame was on the wine list for $795, and Krug vintage champagne ($225ish in stores) was listed for $1425 a bottle! The whole "experience" was missed because we felt we had to compromise immediately on the wine something one should never feel they should have to do when spending $1227 for lunch for 4 people, with one cheap bottle of California champagne. This would be a great $100 a person restaurant. I have eaten in many fabulous restaurants all over the world, and I have to say the food is fabulous here, but it is horribly overpriced when factoring in the environment, staff, and wine list. A good "one-off" experience.” 2 of 2 people found this review helpful.Popular Restraurants in YountvilleView all restaurants in Yountville
