Rustic French bistro with river views, creative cocktails, and patio
"Napa has quite a few squint-and-you-could-be-in-Europe kinds of wineries and restaurants, like Angèle, which gets high marks. They re-create a French countryside setting by the waterfront—complete with a vibrant yellow facade, greenery for privacy, and umbrellas—without going overboard. The more traditional-leaning French menu complements the space, highlighting dishes like escargot and boeuf bourguignon, along with Americanized favorites like a hot dog baked in puff pastry and served with cornichons. Whatever you order, add a side of fries, which are delightfully presented in a terracotta flower pot. Angèle is an excellent spot for lunch with friends in the warmer months and a romantic rendezvous when the temperatures dip." - christina julian, lani conway, jasmine alexandra
"Serving escargots, sweetbreads, steak tartare, and housemade rigatoni, this classic French gem at the end of downtown Napa’s Main Street has unparalleled river views and one of the best patios in town. Open for lunch and dinner, sip a cocktail like the Angèle Spritz (bubbles, vermouth, strawberries, mint, and vanilla) on a warm Napa day and watch stand-up paddle boarders and kayakers float by." - Dianne de Guzman

"The relaxing setting on the patio is one of the main draws of this bistro-style restaurant. Located in the Hatt Building, an historic 1890s ship chandlery, the space has the feel of a French brasserie. The menu is solid, with French favorites such as duck confit and roast chicken. "
"I learned that Angèle, a French restaurant in downtown Napa, will start limited dine-in service this weekend with a restricted menu available from noon to 8 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday; customers will be seated outdoors with only a couple of indoor tables reserved for those who don't want to sit outside, and the outdoor layout will be drastically reconfigured rather than simply crowding tables together." - Luke Tsai
