Wonderful food. Great service - an overall wonderful experience. My husband had the halibut and enjoyed it. I had the margherita pizza - delicious. The timing of the food was perfect, something I really appreciate.

On Saturday evening, my fiancé and I ate at this restaurant before going to a show in the area. We were seated after 15-20 mins of waiting with no reservation. We sat outside in the patio behind the restaurant that was under a white tent. The outdoor seating was busy with other patrons and so was inside. We were handed a mini iPad to select our choices of wines/beers/etc. I ordered a Pinot Grigio, which shows below on the photo of the iPad. My partner ordered a red wine, information below on iPad phone.We were given water upon the arrival to our seats/table. We ordered the focaccia bread with olive oil. The bread was a tad bit too salty in my opinion and I was hoping for more herbs in it. It tasted like plain salted soft bread. The olive oil was elite. I'd give this a 3/5.We both ordered the same thing. The Radiatore pasta with pesto sauce, Meyer lemon and walnuts. In my opinion, I would have wanted more lemon flavor. There was no taste of it at all. Maybe a small amount of lemon zest on top? The walnuts balanced out the flavor of the pasta. The Parm Reggiano cheese was too overpowering on the pasta. The pasta again was salty. I would have wanted more complex flavor of all the ingredients in the description of the dish. However, it was overly salty. Omit the walnuts and it may have been slightly worse. My fiancé liked it but didn't love it. He too said it was salty. He said the pesto sauce should've been thicker & it was too thin. We both rate this a 3/5.We didn't order dessert because we were trying to get out to get in line for the show we were going to. So we paid our check and headed out. This restaurant is very busy, it was a Michelin restaurant in 2018. A lot of stickers on the door for best restaurants and best voted on Nextdoor. I'm a little surprised that it was just okay. We've had better. I think it was a little overrated. I would go back to try the other menu items we didn't try. I want to give this restaurant the benefit of the doubt and maybe assume that it just wasn't their best day when we went. We paid $125 with tip included. Parking was hard to find but it was Saturday night & Anjelah Johnson was performing that night. I heard other patrons at the restaurant talking about it too. We went there to Napa from Hayward. Assuming others probably did too because it was her last day in the Bay Area. Restrooms shared with other businesses in the same building was dirty. Toilet paper all over the floor.Staff was really nice though. Our waiter didn't check up on us as much though. He took our order, and then at the end when we asked for the check.

Came in at 7:30 got a reservation for 8:30. Came back at 8:30 was seated. Initial person who came said another person would be our server. The other person came and said I'll be with you shortly. Then original person came back and said actually I will be your server. Ordered sparkling water, focaccia bread and a salad to start. Then gave our entree orders 9:00 still no entree. We order more bread because we are hungry to pass the time. 9:15 we asked is our food coming? (Order was Halibut, noodles, meatballs, broccoli) server apologizes and says let me check. Comes back and says 5 more minutes. We are seated and watching orders for other tables who came in after us being served with orders of broccoli. It's now 9:30 and we ask for our check, so we can try to get food fromSomewhere on a Friday night. Server says let me talk to my manager. Still no food manager comes, we explain the situation. Manager replied we thought you all were okay when we saw you eating bread. We gave $60 cash for a bottle of water salad and 2 orders of bread. We said we needed to find somewhere to eat, she replied we're sorry good luck with dinner tonight. Unfortunately kitchens closed at 9:30 in the area. Napa night ruined went back to our hotel. If server would have said we're sorry we made a mistake, no problem, if manager would have said I'm sorry no problem, but to intimate you've been here an hour with no food because we saw you eating bread, is no ownership or accountability and that's the problem. We overpaid and the restaurant underdelivered.

Waited an hour on a back patio for tiny bowl of noddles and sausage and a pizza for $70!! Talk about price gauging. If there is a staff shortage you shouldn't be seating tons of people that you cannot give quality food to in Napa Valley.

If you want a great meal of Italian food try it out. We had some great cocktails made by Patrick (try The Bowman). Our server was Eddie and can't say enough nice things about him and his great fun nature. Gave great recommendations for all parts of the meal. Highly recommend

Great place for a girls night out! The bartenders are friendly and creative - let them know what you like and they'll create something for you! Lots of vegetarian options available. The pastas are flavorful and the pizzas perfectly wood fired. Make sure to get the Calabrian chili on the pizza or on the side for some heat!

Nice vibe. We were seated outside in the courtyard on a chilly night but it had heaters around so it was still warm. Ordered the broccoli, bread, and a margarita pizza. Crust was very crisp. Would recommend. Pay attention to the menu. It's not a huge menu so know that going in.

Let me just say--the ambiance of Oenotri is superb! As you walk into the restaurant, it feels as if you walked into a private club or speakeasy. It's classy yet homey with the brick walls and hanging plants. You are immediately greeted by the guest with a smile. We were shown to our table and was offered a variety of drinks from alcoholic to non-alcoholic. The menu changes every day and includes ingredients straight from their garden. The only downside of an every day changing, is the amount of paper being used :( but the food was so fresh and delicious. We ordered the pesto pasta and margarita pizza. The pine nuts complimented the pesto perfectly. Although the pizza could of used a little more cheese or basil, it satisfied our taste buds to a T! Especially with the pesto from the pasta beside it. I would highly recommend Oenotri after a day of wine tasting or browsing through downtown Napa.

Margherita pizza, foccachia with olive oil, and mixed lettuce with Meyer lemon vinaigrette were exceptional. Service was great and the guy throwing the pizza dough was amazing!

So many great restaurants in Napa, but heard this one was really good...it was! The atmosphere was nice and open (open kitchen too!), and the service was great. Ordered the Halibut (cooked perfectly), Margherita Pizza (best crust!), Polpette (meatballs made with different meats in a savory sauce... yum!), and the Foccacia bread. Everything was so delicious! Definitely worth the try!

It was extremely loud. My husband could barely hear each other in our conversation. They had good cocktails and wine, but ultimately a mediocre dining experience.

Multi- course food and wine pairing was like the French Laundry! It was wonderful to have Italian wines. Knowledgeable sommelier and server!

The wait staff was on point. Loved the atmosphere although it was difficult to hear each other over the noise in the room. Very loud.

For over 6 years we have been enjoying most of the top rated restaurants in the Napa Valley. We are fortunate that we are surrounded by so many great choices. It was a very busy Thursday night and after a negligible 3 minute wait we were seated at a table near the kitchen, which is impressively on display. Although I was a little worried about the noise, it really didn't impact our table's conversation. We were approached and informed that our server was busy elsewhere, and here is where it's apparent that the restaurant can handle pressure. Through the evening, it really didn't matter whether or not we had one server assigned to us. All of the folks working in the restaurant teamed up to help each other out as needed. I really admire that. The food is always good to great. So many creative selections and with a vegetarian in our party of 3, Oenotri was an excellent choice. Our guest had never been to the restaurant and her pappardelle with mushrooms was the star of the table. The crudo appetizer with the house made crackers was excellent. My wife had the margherita pizza as her main dish and although it is good, I prefer it as an appetizer. My porchetta lasagna was good, albeit not as hot as I would have liked. Again, it was busy and timing was a challenge.Oenotri has and will continue to be one of our favorites. As businesses have struggled mightily through the pandemic and "The Great Resignation," it's a testament to a company and their culture that they are able to continue to uphold great standards and service. Oenotri is still bringing it, although for sure there are minor indications that they are feeling the challenges that have caused so many other restaurants pain and even have led them to close their doors. We will be back soon to support their top notch team.
