The 14 Best Restaurants In Yountville - Yountville - The Infatuation

"Locals might purposely be gatekeeping Lucy, and once you visit, you’ll see why—this American restaurant delivers dishes on par with Napa’s top-rated restaurants, and most nights you can avoid the crowds and slip in without a reservation. Located inside the lavish Bardessono Hotel, expect ultra-luxe touches alongside a down-to-earth dining room, and, like most restaurants in the area, ingredients that are mainly sourced a few steps away. This is upscale California cuisine with flavor enhancements that won’t feel obnoxious, like a fried avocado with jalapeño ranch and tuna tataki with edamame purée and garlic togarashi. This place is perfect for grabbing a banana punch cocktail by the fire or having a multi-course weeknight dinner of never-disappointing pan-seared duck or fish, and is also a great option for brunch." - christina julian, jasmine alexandra
