Amazing food. Great service. Josh was fabulous! Fabulous drinks. Love the Napa history decor. Must go to! We will be back!Favorites: Vegetable Wellington, grilled salmon, short rib and the clam chowder!!

Hey Yelpers!!!!Was in Napa for a get away and was leaving and needed to grab something to eat before leaving. Found this literally looking up " food nearby ". So we decided to give it a try. THE CHEF, THE FOOD. Is 100/10THE SERVER/WAITER we had was 0/10. I wish I knew how to spell and pronounce his name. He was very rude. He talked over me, got things all wrong with what WE WANTED/HOW WE WANTED ... OUR FOOD.... Because he wanted it how " he thought " it should be. But there were things we did not want on our plate for specific reasons ( allergies)...I ordered the habanero Chicken and my friend ordered Salmon with mashed potatoes. I would have left this restaurant a 1 star because service was so bad, and I strongly believe it's because we are " of color "... but the food was delicious. Parking was tough. Street parking. A lot of red zonesI hope your experience is different from ours. But I will go back just for my dish, it was so great!!! I destroyed it!!!

Good food, great service, in a relaxed ambiance perfectly describes Napkins in Napa. Customer service was outstanding, hats off to Josh our host. We ordered the New England Clam Chowder to start, which was ok. A lot of clams, but lacked flavor. Wasn't thick and hearty like classic clam chowder. However, the rest of the dishes were beyond amazing which made me forget about the clam chowder. The Braised Short Ribs stole the show. Ribs were extremely tender and full of flavor. The puff pastry with pesto was also good. Overall I can't wait to go back and try other menu options. Looking forward!

Amazing staff, we came to Napa for a wine tasting and decided to walk around Napa downtown. After strolling for an hour or so, we decided to dine in the area. It's a Saturday night and down town Napa was bustling with people. We walked up to Napkins Bar and Grill to check out their menu. Everything sounds good. So, we walked in and the hostess asked if we have reservations, which we didn't. The manager was able to make accommodations for the 6 of us. We had a table outside which wasn't too bad with the patio heaters. Our waitress was super nice, all the staff was super attentive. The food was amazing! Highly recommend this place if you're in the area, everything was delicious!

It was restaurant week so we ordered off of that menu. We were a little disappointed in the food. My friend did not like the chicken parm and my salmon entree was petite. They had a cocktail on special that we ordered and it was not my favorite. We sat in the second room and service was pretty quick. We also made some midwestern friends. It was a Friday night so it was fairly noisy as a large party was next to us.

Napkins did not disappoint while I was in town for my annual Napa trip. We were seated promptly and shocked to see they had a prefixed menu for resturant month. i typically come the first week in December so seeing resturant month was new for me. We were super exited to see this because the items we were already going to order was on that menu so we both got the 2-course selection. For my cocktail I ordered the Fall old fashioned, the way they paired by two favorite things...Fall and an old fashioned cocktail was spectacular. For my first course I ordered the Creole shrimp as my appetizer and it was served with a nice portion of shrimp in a delectable creole sauce and some bread. On to the main attraction, the star of the show...a generous portion of braised short rib! When I'm in Napa I always find myself ordering short rib and it's always so good! We decided to have one more drink that was served smoked and presented in a cage...presentation and flavor 5/5! Our server was amazing and I will be sure to make napkins a stop in my next trip back to wine country.

Amazing experience at Napkins! We struggled to find a dining option that wasopen middle of the day and a friend recommended Napkins. Samantha took excellent care of us and shared her favorite entrees/recommendations. We decided on the halibut and the short rib. INcredible! The halibut had the perfect sear with a beautiful, tangy lemony finish and paired with cauliflower hash. The short rib was tender as butter and served on top of perfectly prepared polenta and a side of spinach and mushrooms: Our meals were so amazing we insisted on thanking Luis (chef) ourselves! After the second bite I vowed to turn. Thank you, Napkins!

Great ambiance, great customer service, great food. They have nightly specials which is one of the things that we ordered. The other was a shrimp pasta and we also had a clam chowder. Everything was delicious I definitely recommend and would go back when in Napa.

A very warm & cozy spot to get out of the rain & enjoy a nice brunch with my Bestie.My fried calamari paired perfectly with a nice, piping hot cup of clamp chowder. I also ordered the ahi tuna sandwich. You know how most restaurants will have a perfect picture of what the food should look like, only to find that it doesn't look anything appetizingly close? This sandwich looked & tasted exactly as described on the menu. The waiters were also very kind & patient with us as we took our time catching up on girl-talk before, during, & after our meal. We never felt rushed & they were always attentive to our needs.I look forward to coming back here in the near future to try their dinner menu & perhaps enjoy a nice cocktail.

First time at napkins and we were surprised to see a menu heavily influenced by seafood! I was caught by surprise as this restaurant doesn't seem to be portrayed as a seafood restaurant but I would say 85% of the menu is seafood. We ordered the crispy calamari, which was good but was incredibly soft- which honestly was a bit scary, usually calamari has a little chew to it but this was almost good to just be swallowed by how incredibly soft it was. Not bad, just a bit surprising? We got a couple other appetizers, like the garlic bread which was nothing too special. I wish the garlic bread would've came with some sort of marinara sauce but it did not. As for entrees I got the side of mac n cheese as I was not incredibly hungry and my partner for the shrimp linguine. The Mac and cheese was incredibly watery and did not really taste like Mac and cheese which was a bit disappointing. Service was a bit slow, and the host seemed annoyed that we came in and insisted we just sit at the bar because they're "only" table available was next to a big party that was "very loud". Water service lacked, as my cup stayed empty almost all dinner long. Sadly don't plan on visiting again
