Restaurants near Hess Collection Museum

This is our third year of having Christmas lunch with family at Restoration Hardware restaurant in Yountville. The reason we go back is because the food is phenomenal, the service is excellent, the restaurant is beautiful and the atmosphere is wonderful. We will keep going back because they take care of my Mom who uses a walker and we have a m unbelievable experience every time! Highly, highly recommend RH restaurant in Yountville!

Very beautiful place. The service was outstanding, everyone was working as a team helping out, the food was amazing, we enjoyed wood grilled octopus and that was very tender and very good! Also had the the the spaghetti and the flavor was very good, the sauce and noodles we very good taste, definitely recommend that. We finish off with the 21 Day Dry Aged Tomahawk and that was a lot of meat and very good. It was good for 2 people. All 3 dishes was outstanding !!! Really recommend this place.

We arrived early for our reservation, which was no problem, and were offered to try the enclosed, outdoor, heated patio. It was beautiful with warm lighting and not a hint of the December chill outside. My daughter and I shared the fig/arugula salad, duck confit and flounder. We expected two tiny duck legs but they were leg quarters with more meat than we could eat due to the duck’s richness. A good sharing dish because of that. The salted fig carmel trifle is a must if you’re a chocolate mousse fan. The Puebla de Sonoma cocktail was good but if you don’t care for a sweet drink, ask for less agave. I was worried about spiciness and asked for less heat but the regular amount would have been fine and actually better. Our server was attentive and friendly and the entire staff was on top of things. Our water never got below half and empty dishes were swept away quickly, but not in a rushed, hurry up way. My receipt says my server was ‘August’s A’ and she was wonderful.

Four friends gathered for a holiday celebration and annual reunion - Bistro Don Giovanni was the perfect place. We all dine here individually but this was the first time all together. Our waiter was wonderful as expected and very friendly. The house Don Giovanni red wine perfect. We shared a holiday appetizer and each had a different entree. We will all be back and maybe even together!

Having lived in Sonoma County for 34 years and now the concierge at Hotel Healdsburg, my visit to Bistro Jeanty was LONG OVERDUE. What a wonderful, delicious surprise to have enjoyed Christmas lunch with my Mom. The rainy weather was the perfect setting to enjoy all our french favorites - Crême de Tomate en Croute, Soupe a l’Oignon and our very favorite Boeuf Bourguignon. Thank you, thank you thank you for a memorable meal - We absolutely will be back. - Merci beaucoup
