Red Rock Cafe & Back Door BBQ

I recently had Back Door BBQ cater a dinner for Yacht Club which was visiting Napa. Working with Erin was such a pleasure. We enjoyed Tri-tip, pulled pork, ribs & chicken and our group felt the meal was truly excellent!Give them a try at their restaurant or have them cater an event. You won't be disappointed!

This is a reliable Napa restaurant, well out of the touristy areas, and frequented mainly by locals. It is more reasonably priced than most restaurants in Napa. Everything that I have had here is "pretty good". You will not leave saying that it was the best meal you have ever had, but you will enjoy the food - it's always "pretty good". That, combined with the "reasonable" prices (for Napa) keeps people coming back. Plus, it's been here for a very long time, and the staff is always friendly. They have a good number of regulars. Their bbq is good. My dad likes the ribs, their sides and burgers and sandwiches are fine, and their pie, when they have it, is also good. Their salads are quite good, and they offer a make-your-own option which I like. Portions are large, so 2 people can share a salad and one main course, and both will have more than enough food.If Yelp allowed me to give a half star, I would have given this 3.5 stars. Since I can't, I felt the restaurant deserves to be rounded up to 4 stars rather than down. The space is "cozy" (meaning small). They have tables, and about 7-8 seats at a small bar. The parking lot is small and tight but, if it's full, one can always find a spot on the street. They also have a small outdoor seating area. Summary: always reliably pretty good.

Red rock always delivers. Small family owned local spot. My go to here is the tri-tip with aujus and fries. It's like a French dip. Plenty of food if you want to split for two people or if you're hungry, it's all you. The barbecue chicken here is also amazing as well as the ribs. Great beer, wine drink selection. The staff is always super friendly.

The best burgers and salads - I don't eat ribs but they seemed to be very popular! We had burgers and curly fries - everything is also fresh and hot! I had a cheddar burger with guac on it - excellent!! Curly fries shown are a size small and the 2 of us couldn't eat all of them!!

I have been coming here ever since I was a kid. 28+ years later and it's still amazing! Guacamole, Bacon & Cheddar burger or the Tri Tip dinner is my favorite. I moved to Texas 12 years ago, but I try to hit Red Rock whenever I'm in town. BEST BURGERS IN THE WORLD!!!! I also feel they have the best Tri Tip I have ever had. And don't forget about their incredible BBQ sauce. My family has even sent it to me because it is just my type. Love it!Service is always great. Back when I was a regular, they were always friendly, always remembered me, and always knew my order..."are you having the burger today or the tri tip?" You can't beat service like that! The place is a cool little restaurant that has a real home feel to it. Great decor and a cute collection of salt & pepper shakers that I'm happy to see they still take seriously. Over the years I have had great meals and great memories here. Kinda holds a special place for me. Add the great food and great service, and it's an all around great place. The other location is good too, but the Lincoln location is my favorite.

Great BBQ and burgers with nice owners. When you tire of Napa high style cuisine, this is a good choice. The food is great and I'm sure their wine list is good, too. Sweet owners and service. Atmosphere is cozy and collegial.

I can't believe that I have not yet given Red Rock a review after being a patron for many years. Sadly I have taken this establishment for granted. For those looking for a good BBQ spot, I would recommend Red Rock. They have been very consistent with their product and offer a great value in the Napa area. The meats that I personally enjoy are the ribs, tri tip, and the brisket. Those who enjoy spicy foods would enjoy the links. (They are a little too spicy for me.)Their sides also complement their meats very well. Especially their BBQ sauces. The person there who is always a joy for me to work with is Erin. She has supported several catering events for me. At every event, the food always ends up getting complemented more than the event! Erin is the most thoughtful person you can work with. Her experience in the field is evident as she makes sure ALL your catering needs are met. She always has a smile on her face and despite the hectic environment, she is always calm and collected. There is a reason why Red Rock has been around for so long and you should definitely visit if you can.

Quaint little diner. Super friendly and helpful. The service is tops and the Tri-Tip Sandwich is to live for(no food is to die for). The pork ribs fall right off the bone. Yum Oh and the corn bread will make you take a couple home.

BBQ is probably my favorite choice when I get to choose Sunday lunch. Problem is there aren't a lot of options around here. On a Yelp search I ended up in Napa at the Red Rock Cafe. I can attest the neighborhood cafe lives on in the RRC! (Support your local spots!). I could tell this place had lots of locals, as we were the only tourist like visitors there. Here are my favorite dishes: Pulled Pork Sandwich: I don't normally order pull pork, but my girl did. Oh my, this was a winner. The pork was so tender with just enough Smokey goodness for you to keep wanting more (I kept sneaking bites of pork). The sauce was not too sweet but added moisture and tang. The Dutch Crunch bread was an interesting choice of roll but adds nice crunch to the bread. The side of cole slaw was delicious as well. I just wanted to stuff it into the sandwich. The sandwich is ginormous so it can be shared, but why????Tri-tip Sandwich with au jus: Thick stack of thinly sliced tri-tip nestled between soft French bread. Okay, now dip into the au jus...enjoy. The tri-tip by itself was pretty good but adding the au jus makes this one even better. Corn Muffin: This was really good. I mean really good. I liked the crunchy texture top and the non cakey consistency of the rest. It had delicious cooked corn kernels with most of the bites. Make sure you slather with butter. Coconut Cream Pie: This is not your store bought pie from Safeway. Nope. This tasted like someone's family recipe handed down throughout the generations. The texture reminds me of something like a light custard cream with coconut shavings. The crust was buttery and flaky. I suspect the chef here loves their sweets. Just a hunch. This is a local spot through and through. It's a cozy little place that seats maybe 30 max. The a bar has a variety of on tap favorites and a tv for the latest sporting event, or daytime soap. The parking is tiny and adventurous, so parking a little bit away may have to happen. Overall I'd like to come back. The made fresh daily cod looked delish...

Great food, service, and locally owned. I live their salads too. This place has been a staple in Napa for a very long time. I love. their burgers, fish and chips
