The Charter Oak Restaurant St. Helena Reviews from The Last Year
Went back to the charter Oak for happy hour.
They have a good four dollar happy hour beer special, which was I believe the pilsner. It came in a can was the only downside. We got the salad today which felt pretty dry so I had to ask for extra dressing to join it. Everything was pretty good, but not as good as I remembered it from before. Maybe the dressing was different as this one was pretty salty. We got the wings as well, which were huge and delicious and juicy and good quality wings. will be back and recommend this spot for happy hour.
The drinks and food here were very good but I'm here to say
The drinks and food here were very good but I'm here to say Monica was amazing I am so glad she was our bartender/waitress! Me and my 9 month old came in and she helped us find a table when we did not have a reservation (then she taught him how to high-five! What the heck?! It was awesome haha she was very sweet) she made great recommendations for drinks and food. We ordered the stracciatella and caviar, next time I would ask to not have chive oil they put on it but would still probably give it a 8/10. The homemade bread and butter was definitely a 10/10 though, the atmosphere is lovely we sat outside and baby enjoyed the beautiful green and strong lights all surrounding the patio, absolutely will be back and hope to have Monica again!
This place is recommended to us by a friend, and I am so
This place is recommended to us by a friend, and I am so glad we went! It is beautiful both indoors and in their outdoor patio, which has so much greenery around it. Make no mistake, this will not be a cheap meal, but the food was delicious and fresh. We were not disappointed with a single thing that we ordered. The cocktails were also excellent. A couple of us got frose since it was a hot day and they added a Aperol float, which made it extra delicious. Cherry on top, it was kid friendly with a kids menu that my children were very happy with. Looking forward to our next visit!
Overall experience was good.
...the restaurant and bar interior is very well appointed and inviting..the outdoor patio area is beautiful....we had the beef tartar, the vegetables, the fries and sweetbreads... all ingredients were of the highest quality.... The reason for not giving five stars was that we were never offered winelist and the sweetbreads came out barely warm... that said, the sweetbreads were still fine, just not hot. We will definitely go back so put this on your list... Also, they have a great selection of bourbon and whiskey
Ideally, I'd give this place a 3.
5/5. The Charter Oak offers a beautiful setting and a menu that showcases high-quality ingredients. While the experience has its strong points, a few inconsistencies kept it from being a slam dunk. The restaurant's interior boasts a grand atmosphere. High ceilings and an open layout create a sense of airiness, while exposed brick (on the outside and plush seating add a touch of warmth. The dedicated meat-cooking area allows guests a glimpse of the culinary action and adds a touch of visual intrigue. We opted for a selection of dishes to share: the signature Charter Oak bread, the Flannery 14-day dry-aged ribeye with brown butter hollandaise, the black roasted cod with daylily pesto, and the upside-down cake for dessert. The bread and house-cultured butter were a clear winner. Warm and crusty bread paired perfectly with the rich, salty butter. However, the sides served with the bread were a bit overdone, offering a touch of unintended bitterness. The Flannery ribeye was a huge letdown. While cooked to a good degree overall, the silver skin remained somewhat tough, making parts of the meat chewy. Additionally, the lack of pre-emptive inquiry about our preferred doneness felt like a missed opportunity. The richness of the meat could have benefited from a touch more salt to complement the tangy brown butter hollandaise. For being the most expensive dish on the menu, this was a major letdown. The black roasted cod, on the other hand, was a triumph. The fish itself was cooked perfectly - crispy skin gave way to a juicy and delicate interior, expertly deboned for a seamless dining experience. The citrusy daylily pesto complemented the fish beautifully. The upside-down cake fell a bit short. While the cake itself was alright, the tartness of the yogurt overpowered the sweetness of the cake, resulting in an unbalanced flavor profile. The service was efficient and friendly. Our meals arrived promptly, and our server was attentive throughout the evening. However, neglecting to ask about our preferred doneness for the ribeye felt like a minor oversight in an otherwise attentive experience. The Charter Oak offers a beautiful dining experience in Napa Valley. The stunning ambiance, high-quality ingredients, and fast service make it a strong contender. However, some inconsistencies with the steak and the imbalance in the dessert detracted from a perfect experience. For those seeking a stylish setting with delicious, well-sourced options, The Charter Oak is still worth a visit but maybe steer away from the ribeye.
Had a very enjoyable dinner but here is my home chef review.
The Samolia was lovely as were the bussers and servers, however we requsted olive oil for he bread and id not get it. The grilled avacodo was yummy but half was not ripe. Our cesar for the table did not come out prior to our meal and we had to remind them. I had wanted to order a cocktail and they never came back to take order. Enjoed a beautiful botte of Flowers pinot that we brought and a big thumbs up that they do not charge a corkage on th first bottle. The bread is out of this world. We had the lamb which had a perfect cook and wonderful sauce. The Black Cod was also cooked perfectly but the sauce was so over salted we had to scrape it off. Inexcusable in my humble opion. Chocolate cream brulee was fab! I was a little disappointed but would give them another shot.
Second time at the Charter Oak.
We had a dinner reservation at here after a day at the wineries. The restaurant was already quite busy when we got there around 5pm on a Saturday (probably because of summer and the nice weather). The atmosphere was inviting and unassuming. We ordered the raw vegetable dip, this month's wings, the cheeseburger, black cod, and grilled kohlrabi to share along the four of us. Everything was fresh, flavourful, and satisfying. The raw vegetables dip was exceptional, and the soy dip complemented the farm-fresh vegetables perfectly. Definitely a must order. We loved it so much that we ordered another one to share. It was a delicious way to end a day in the wine country.
We came here for a girls trip & had an awesome meal! Chad,
We came here for a girls trip & had an awesome meal! Chad, our server, was so kind & gave us lots of menu recommendations! The patio is beautiful and great for a start or end to your Napa trip.
Comfortable elegant environment to enjoy time with
Comfortable elegant environment to enjoy time with relatives and eat delicious food! We tried the cinnamon rolls and the frosting was similar to frosting on carrot cake, but creamier and just the right amount of sweetness. Definitely worth ordering The Black Apple Butter Tart always a favorite and one we order every time we are here, while the Chocolate Hearth Burnt Cream topped with cocoa nibs was okay. This was a chocolate crème Brûlée, but was not a memorable dessert for me because I thought it could be a bit sweeter, but other members of the group enjoyed it. LITTLE GEMS SALAD with yellow miso Caesar dressing. Our salad appeared to have nasturtium flowers and as well as some crunchy toppings that tasted like toasted crushed sour dough bread. We couldn't flag down a waiter to verify this. We really enjoyed this salad, the dressing and the freshness of the lettuce. It was a delicious version of a Caesar Salad . ALBACORE GARDINIERA with haricot vert. kalamata olive. cipollini onion was absolutely delicious! It was a great accompaniment eaten to the Charter Oak bread! CHARTER OAK BREAD .. small 8, large 16 house-cultured butter. BEST sourdough bread ever! We ordered two large orders and enjoyed the house-cultured butter, which was light smooth flavor. The cheeseburger was a delicious, thick patty, but the handcut fries were so-so and disappointing accompaniment to a delicious burger. Flannery 14 Day Dry Aged Ribeye 135 brown butter hollandaise. paprika oil. The person who ordered this dish did not enjoy the flavor. He felt this was not flavorful enough for a dry age steak and was disappointed. Overall most of us loved what we ordered and we will return. This is a great place to just chill and to celebrate any occasion in your life!
Beautiful spot, amazing food, friendly and helpful staff,
Beautiful spot, amazing food, friendly and helpful staff, pet friendly, even their waiting area makes you feel at home! Would recommend for anniversaries, birthdays, or celebrations of other kinds!
Thank you!! My hubby and I originally came here for the
Thank you!! My hubby and I originally came here for the yurt experience and did not have a good time. The ambiance and service was good but the food was not. We were invited back to experience the restaurant so we ended up coming with our two small children. What a different experience!! All of the food was fantastic. First of all, they have play dough for the kids which was a hit. The drinks were great we had a Negroni, banana daiquiri, and we tried the not so espresso martini. Each was delicious and we highly recommend. We also had the smoked fish brunch addition which was fantastic. The bread was so fresh and every element of the plate worked well together. Our kids had a hot dog and burger both with fries. They came out right away and each were delicious. My hubby and i had the little gem Caesar and bavette steak. For dessert we had basque cheesecake and the soft serve. Overall a fantastic meal and we will definitely be back. Thank you to charter oak for welcoming us back and allowing us to experience your food.

I was recommended this place for the burger and my oh my did it blow me away! Best burger I've had in the area, hands down! It's served with hand cut fries and their ketchup, that they make in house. Delicious!! You have to also try their soft serve ice cream, so good!!! We really appreciated the service when we told them we were in a rush to get to our next wine tasting. They got us in and out very quickly. I will be dreaming of this burger until I come back.
Love the food so much and the service was great.
We were seated outside which was not really with a good ambience.
While they MUST buy some plants or find a way to warm up
While they MUST buy some plants or find a way to warm up the room and space (add some screens or decor inside???), the place is still unique and the outside is great. The burger is delicious but the menu in general is fussy with a random selection of things. Needs a bigger menu. Service is really nice and improved... super nice staff. Delicious Caesar salad. Yummy bread. Lots of things to like about the place but the huge wide open interior space is a head scratcher. Very cold and barren. Still, a fun worthwhile place, though.
Gotta get the potatoes!!!
This place is so fun - great vibe and energy and the staff makes this such a great experience! The food is flavor PACKED and the potatoes are delish! Your silverware is tucked away in the table side drawer and you will enjoy your visit! We had a short wait to get seated (no Ressie in advance), but well worth it!!

What a treat! My husband booked a Yurt dining experience my
What a treat! My husband booked a Yurt dining experience my birthday. It was just lovely. Even on a rainy day, waking into the restaurant is impressive. It is just a beautiful restaurant! My husband said he was called by the restaurant a few days prior to confirm the reservation and (given that the cold and rainy weather was expected) if we still wanted to Yurt dine. We did and they gave us great advice of dress in layers. They also went over the 4 course menu which I felt was thoughtful. I was impressed with how warm the Yurt was but if you are still cold, there are blankets for you to use. Rene was thee most attentive, friendly, knowledgeable and awesome server. He hands down answered all of our questions and our food came out in perfect timing of one another. We had plenty of private quiet dining which was welcomed due to us celebrating my birthday. Food was hands down delicious! I recommend: The vegetables with the soy bean dip. Do not skip on the fresh vegetables. You'll never have veggies like this again! Trust me. The bread. Ok I know what you are thinking..it's just bread. Well no, it is not. Crispy on the outside, perfect chew on the inside and spectacular churned butter. So good. From the tasting menu: The chicken croquettes. Right size bites packing so much flavor. Duck and beet salad- what a perfect pair. Chicken broth- a small sip feels like a warm tight hug. I would love to come back. Correction. We will be back in the late spring/early summer. Would love to do a dinner in a yurt. I never knew this gem of a place existed. I selfishly want to keep this place a secret but it's so hard to not rave about Charter Oak. I'm so glad my husband chose this place to dine at. I highly recommend and cannot wait to go back. .
We stopped by Charter Oaks for lunch with no reservation
We stopped by Charter Oaks for lunch with no reservation for 5 people. We ended up sitting at the bar which was perfectly fine. Food was very delicious and the pork chop we order was very juicy! I recommend ordering their wings, pasta and their pork chop made to perfection!
Food is delicious.
A must try for the experience. Service was excellent, as well. Our server was so kind and gave his recommendations. We had the burger, gem salad, the sourdough bread and cream butter, and the chicken. Everything we had had unique and delicious flavor. I would come back for drinks but nothing I must eat again.
Management stepped in and up
I really liked the layout of this place. It is spacious and airy with a very high ceiling. You don’t hear the neighboring tables especially when the playlist kicks in with loud music which during our lunch was often. The menu is concise and expensive considering its simplicity. The wine list is extensive and as expected pricey, some of the best deals are astonishingly in the imported wines. The food is good but unfortunately languishes somewhere before being bought to table and is thus barely warm. This was a veritable put off. The servers leave the dessert menu and never return to take the order. We had to get up and give our order to the gaggle of servers who were waiting for who knows what. Fortunately management took notice of these lapses and corrected the bill. I found this intervention professional and courteous. And voila the reason for four stars….otherwise it would have been two.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil

Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
