Classic French country fare in a cozy bistro setting
"A James Beard Award–nominated, classic French bistro in Yountville created by Chef Philippe Jeanty to evoke informal, home-style French dining with high-quality, fresh California produce. The cozy, traditional setting—complete with red-and-white striped awnings, rattan café chairs, a long European bar, and exposed brick—serves comforting French standards like Sole Meunière, which pairs particularly well with a bright, creamy Chardonnay; corkage is available for guests who bring their own bottle." - AFAR
"Bistro Jeanty is a dining institution and a must-visit for anyone who dreams in steak frites and coq au vin. With bright yellow walls and country-inspired finds—like a bicycle with a basket filled with baguettes—it would be easy to find a trendier option, but then you’ll be sad to have missed out on the simple yet indulgent menu of buttery comfort dishes: escargot, steak tartare, and the best chocolate croissant bread pudding in Napa. Even better is that this spot transforms based on the occasion. It’s perfectly suited for a low-lit romantic dinner, or for talking shop with colleagues you’re passing through town with. There’s also an extensive wine list, but lean on their talented bartenders—the cocktail menu includes dessert-flavored options like brandy alexanders and salted-caramel espresso martinis." - christina julian, jasmine alexandra

If you’re here during the colder months, the tomato soup with billowing puff pastry is one of their most popular, can’t-miss dishes." - Jasmine Alexandra
