Reviews for Oenotri in Napa, CA
Seating outside is not the best. The ambiance inside is much nicer, but even with a reservation we were seated outside on the... sidewalks. The food was about what we expected. It tasted fresh with high quality ingredients. One dish we got was overly spicyeven though no spicy ingredients were listed. Pizza comes out a bit slow as they only cook 4 at a time and they are personalsized. Read more
Funghi pizza was incredible. Home made pasta with pesto, burrata and nuts was really good. Wine ? it’s comfortable seating,... good service and nice vibe. A little pricey but it is what it is. ???? Read more
The restaurant has a great dinner ambiance. Our server was very nice and the food was great. Some of the food items were charged... higher then what was listed on the menu though, I think because they update their menu daily so I would just be aware of that. Read more
Omg this place is a must try! I would rate this place 10 stars if I could. Everything we ordered was 20/10 delicious! All the... pasta are made fresh daily and you can tell all the ingredients are really fresh. Probably one of the best rib eyes I’ve everhad in a restaurant. The steak was cook to medium rare perfection. The first time I’ve ordered a steak and it’s come the wayordered it. The ju the steak came in was so so wonderful as well. The chef here knows what they’re doing. Staff was reallygreat as well. We had a large party of 12 and our waitress was really attentive. Would highly recommend for a special occasiondinner or date night. Really really top tier food! Can’t wait to be back in Napa so I can go here again. :) Read more
Indoor seating was not as popular nowadays, outdoors crowded. Service was good. The appetizers were pretty good, fresh beets... with burrata, good dressing. The pork belly was crispy outside, okay tenderness inside. Main courses, delicious pasta withmushrooms. The pork chop, unfortunately, was a bit dry, not very tasty. Prices were on the high end.

I had dinner here while in from out of town. I went looking for great Italian food and got it. My date and I had: Fig antipasto... - This was delightful and refreshing, and perfectly whetted our appetites for the next dishes. The flavors came together reallywell. Margherita pizza - This was delicious. They did the thin crust perfectly, I don't usually eat the crust, but I did thistime. The tomato sauce was balanced, it shown on its own and complimented the basil leaves well. Ragu pork pasta - Might be thehighlight of the evening. The shells had that nice firmness of a solid al dente (some places will claim their pasta is al denteand then it comes out soft, so I respect them for actually doing it), and the sauce was heavy and flavorful, like comfort food.(I forgot to take a picture because we delved into it so fast.) The service was great as well. The waiter noticed I didn't seemto be enjoying my wine (it wasn't what I had expected based on the label) and offered to switch it out for me. I hate buggingwaitstaff about changes or sending stuff back because I know how hard their job is, though I took him up on his kind offer. Thefact that he noticed and offered really stood out to me, especially on a busy Friday night. Overall, a lovely diningexperience. I will definitely come back if I return to Napa. Read more
Had a reservation for 8 pm for our party of six on our last night in Napa. Here is everything we ordered to share: Meatballs -... this is the one dish I always order at Italian restaurants. Most of the time, you can't go wrong with it, plus it's filling.This one was pretty standard but good Panzanella - this was my first time trying panzanella and I don't know if I love it. Idon't like stale/soggy bread (which I know that's exactly what this dish is) but let's just say it's not for me. I didn't pickthis and it probably wouldn't have been on my list of choices but since we ordered it, I thought - might as well try it Salmonwith Lentils - salmon paired with lentils was a bit odd for me, but the salmon itself was fine Braised Short Rib - flavor-wise,this was pretty good but I don't love braised short rib in general Radiatore with Pork Ragu - I really liked this dish overall.Pasta was al dente, ragu was great, but it was too salty. I could only eat so much of it after a while Shrimp Scampi - flavorof the pasta was good but shrimp had a weird taste to it. Almost like it had been sitting in a tank somewhere at some point fortoo long White Lasagna - pretty good. It was a nice change from the typical classic lasagna Side of Polenta - polenta ispolenta. Nothing special here Funghi Pizza (crema, parmagiano reggiano, mushrooms, thyme) - this was definitely my favorite ofthe night. I wasn't mad that my friends were too full to eat this because I probably ended up eating three pieces of this Idon't think I would come back if I was in town again but if you come here, I'd recommend just sticking to the pizza and pasta.But the good thing about this place is that their menu changes daily (or weekly?) so maybe we just didn't order the rightdishes. Maybe I would have enjoyed the menu more had I come on a different day. Read more
Didn’t feel rushed, food was good, and server was very kind. Server was able to make well informed recommendations for my... drink and food. Read more
