We had a beautiful lunch here on our first day in Napa, seated in a flower-studded garden terrace overlooking a lush vineyard on an equisitely perfect day, with crisp white table linens, impeccable international-style service, and amazing cuisine...I felt like a movie star! Everything was SO fresh and amazing...I especially loved the fried olives and almonds and the salmon chowder... more

We stopped at Don Giovanni for lunch at the recommendation of a local merchant. We dined outside on a lovely patio. Even though it's just off the main highway, it's shielded from the noise quite well. The service was outstanding and they had a diverse menu. The Spaghetti de la mere was among the best renditions of that dish I've... more

Wow. WOW. I honestly can't believe this many people suggest Don Giovanni as a good restaurant. My father-in-law is a big fan of Italian food (his biggest rave is probably Tommaso's in SF), so when he wanted to come up to visit us in Napa and go to a decent restaurant, we tried to find an Italian one. There aren't... more

My wife had the daily whole fish (snapper) which was excellent, however I had a very below average lamb shank. My dinner resembled something I could have easily prepared in a crock pot, while hers was intelligent, and creative-- using local ingredients. I think we could have found better quality for the same price in Napa. more
