Could you provide some recommendations for restaurants in Yountville?


Answer: Yountville has many gastronomic delights.  The best and most renown restaurant in Yountville is Thomas Keller’s French Laundry, which is one of his Michelin 3-star restaurants. Chef Keller uses French techniques, coupled with the abundance of produce and wine from the famous Napa Valley.  The French Laundry also has its own garden and chicken coop, which are located across the street.  This is an expensive restaurant and it’s hard to get a reservation, but it’s certainly a treat.  

Less expensive, but still good, are three other restaurants owned by Chef Keller:

•	Bouchon Bistro, which also has a Michelin star and serves classic French bistro cuisine, 
•	Ad Hoc, which serves elevated, but casual, family-style dinners, and 
•	La Calenda, which serves Mexican cuisine and has live music on weekend nights.  

Another good French bistro-style restaurant is Bistro Jeanty, a mainstay of Yountville restaurants.

Bottega, owned by Michael Chiarella, is a good option for Italian cuisine.  Lucy Restaurant, in the Bardessono Hotel, has an eclectic, but delicious menu.

Good options for very inexpensive food are Tacos Garcia, which is a taco truck next to the park near Madison Street, and Velo Deli and Pizzeria, which serves sandwiches and pizzas. 

For a very quick bite, Kelly’s Provisions is a tiny shop located in the only gas station in Yountville located at the corner of Washington Street and Madison Street (and it’s the world’s cutest and cleanest gas station).  At Kelly’s, you can find hot dogs and soft serve ice cream, and it also has many packaged snacks, a wide assortment of drinks, and a good selection of wine and champagne.
