6 Best Day Trips from San Francisco | Condé Nast Traveler

"The latest iteration of this longtime Napa outpost comes courtesy of chef Christopher Kostow . The centerpiece of the dining room—and the kitchen—is the steel hearth, a titan for roasting, crisping, and smoking vegetables. The result is simple, smoke-kissed Napa produce, like peeled avocados blistered over a flame, coated in chrysanthemum and dill. It's perfect for a leisurely lunch to refuel between wine tastings, or an evening out. While it’s fine to come as a couple, the family-style servings work best for groups—a nice addition to Napa’s honeymoon-centric dining scene." - Ana Kamin, Jenna Scatena
