St. Helena Bistro

Friendly staff and affordable prices in the center of Napa Valley.

My group of 10 had a great experience at this restaurant. They were very accommodating in putting together a table for us on a busy Saturday night. The menu had a variety of options, and everyone was pleased with their choices. I had the delicious eggplant dish, while my husband enjoyed the homemade ravioli. Others in our group tried Mexican dishes and burgers, which looked so good that we returned the next day for lunch and had burgers ourselves. The food was delicious, and I highly recommend this bistro. We will definitely be back when we are in the area.

Small local Bistro with focus on fresh food. My wife I loved the fresh guacamole the best she has ever had. Service was great considering it was Valentine's Day.

I think in most other towns this restaurant would have garnered a better rating overall, but to me it is just missing the Napa Valley charm that so many other restaurants have. The red wine we ordered was room temperature and not chilled, the tomato bruschetta was mediocre. The gnocchi we had was good, but not great. It feels a bit like a strip center restaurant on the inside and really lacks any character or charm. The staff was very friendly and warm, and in my opinion was the best thing about this place. In my opinion there’s too many great restaurants in the area to go back to this one on a future trip.

Enjoy a delicious lunch at this restaurant with a price range of $20-30 per person. We highly recommend trying the Grilled Chicken dish.
