Where to Eat Lunch in Napa

September is a sweet spot in Napa Valley. Sunny days melt into warm evenings as the vineyards and vines start to turn gold under a late summer sun. And if that doesn't paint a pretty enough picture, imagine it without the summer crowds. That's right, September is the perfect time to take full advantage of Napa's finest, and we're here to help. If 'doing Napa' means seeing and sipping your way through the valley, we'll keep you fed. In between window shopping, wine tastings, and winding train rides, come dine with us in Chef Ricardo Jarquin's kitchen at Silverado Resort and Spa.

We'll be happy to serve you lunch after you return from your morning stroll along Main Street in downtown Napa. Dine at The Grill between 11:30 and 2:30 for a seasonal selection of handcrafted soups, local pulses, grains, vegetables, and tasty fish or meat. Menu items change according to what's growing in the garden. If it's morning light you seek, start your day with a leisurely visit to a vineyard and feed your soul something solid after having sampled the fruits of the vine. Back at Mansion Lounge, you'll find comfort foods on the menu including crispy calamari and 'dirty' fries, a roasted mushroom quesadilla, and the crowd favorite 'out and in' burger. If you're craving something sweet, we've got you covered there, too.

But if you'd rather spend the day out and about without having to get back to base by a certain time, why not pack a lunch? At the Boost Spa Cafe, we have a cooler full of healthy sandwiches and salads plus delicious made-to-order smoothies. It really couldn't be easier to pack your picnic and go. Can't decide what you want to do? Or perhaps you've done so much you need a quick refresh before continuing your adventure? We've got a Snack Shack for that with our famous "Silverado Burger Dog." Don't ask, just eat it. It couldn't be more delicious or effortless to dine in Napa. Take the lunch decision off your plate, and let us fill it with our chef's best.
