"After four long years of development, I visited RH Yountville, the company's first gallery to include a standalone, full‑service restaurant and wine tasting room; it operates daily from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., serving brunch until about 3:30 p.m. before transitioning to dinner. The menu, curated by Brendan Sodikoff, focuses on simple, California‑inspired comfort dishes — highlights include truffle grilled cheese, avocado toast topped with roasted tomatoes and a farm egg, and burrata served on toasted garlic bread — and dessert is anchored by a trio of absurdly gooey chocolate chip cookies sprinkled with giant sea salt flakes. Because it’s in Napa, the location carries a vastly greater wine list than RH’s other eateries. Signature RH elements are everywhere: working stone fountains, opulent Rococo chandeliers, and neutral RH furnishings that are for sale, but the 100‑year‑old live olive trees, picture windows, glass doors and a glass roof that acts as a giant skylight are the main event; in the evenings the whole property transforms as the massive chandeliers make the space glow." - Eater
