Major LaTrisha (The Major Brand) Looked up somewhere to eat for dinner when we got to Napa and this place popped up so we decided to try it. It did not disappoint. The food and service was so good that we went back the next day for lunch on our way to our resort. The Crispy Brussel Sprouts were flavorful and delicious. I also had the Grilled Ribeye Steak that was cooked to perfection and seasoned just right. The chimichurri sauce was the best I have ever had. The next day for lunch I had the Fish Sandwich. It was fried just right and was so good. The fries were crispy coated and delicious. The highlight of both my meals was the Sangria. It was fruity and not overly sweet. It was amazing! I will definitely go back when I am in Napa again next year. Just an overall great experience both visits.

Maxim Lowe This is the biggest and tastiest burger in town. Metro is affordable ($5 drink happy hour!), portions are delicious and huge, and the service is the best part. Julie always takes great care of us. They are super kid-friendly and have a big bucket of toys for them. We’ve been coming here twice a month for a while. Great place for the family!

Barbara Bartee The Mill is our go-to for a midday break from the slopes. The bartenders here are fantastic – friendly, attentive, and always make us feel welcome. The pulled pork and tri-tip sandwich is absolutely delicious. Perfectly seasoned, tender, and just what you need to refuel before heading back out. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it the ideal spot to recharge. We stop here every time were at Mammoth, and it never disappoints. Highly recommend!

iheartauroraborealis Wow, just wow! We went for dinner on a Thursday with no reservations and they seated us right away. I would recommend reservations because it was still quite busy. Definitely a dinner spot for business crowds. Our server was top notch, best dining service experience Ive had in quite a while. Our drinks came out quickly - recommend the Tiki Taormina (if you like tropical rum drinks). For dinner we had a New York steak (phenomenon flavor and cooked to perfection - would give Ruths Chris Steakhouse a run for its money) and the Parppadelle alla Norcino Con Pollo (egg pasta with grilled chicken, porcini & champignon mushrooms, and truffle oil, in a grana padano-cream sauce) and I could eat it every night for dinner. I am not a mushroom person, but this was a dish where the mushrooms added to the flavor and the cream sauce was the standout. The grilled chicken was so tasty it made me wonder if it was cooked in butter. Throw in some scrumptious bread and I am ready to go back for dinner now! Thank you for the wonderful evening! Your staff and food truly made it memorable.

Sarah A My husband and I stopped in Oceanside and decided to share the Tri-Tip sandwich … and WOW. We’re still talking about it! The meat was tender, the flavors were insane, and everything was just perfect. Honestly the best sandwich we’ve ever had. Too bad it’s far from us, because we’d be here every week. A must-try when you’re in Oceanside!

Dan Killam Ive been here a couple of times and really like it. They have very tasty beers of a variety of types (peach optimo sour was delicious and a true sour lovers sour). I really liked the cheesesteak! It had a great kick to it and was so flavorful. The service was great and the patio was comfortable, even when it was 92 degrees out, thanks to the misters. If you are in Davis and like beer and/or food delivered with good vibes, I heartily recommend it!
