Suggestions for Napa Valley Lunch

[kemi5]

Would appreciate your suggestions for lunch apres golf at Napa Valley GC in Kennedy Park. Somewhere close, and nice ($$) that epitomizes food of the Napa region. Not starstruck celebrity chef style, but a "local" place that has talent in the kitchen. Reservations or not is OK. Thanks in advance.

If a vegetarian menu won't work for your group, here are a couple more suggestions. Depending on which direction you want to drive after golf, you might consider Boon Fly Cafe (on the way to Sonoma from Napa) or Celadon.(downtown Napa).

I used to really like Angele, which is in the same complex as Celadon, but the last couple of lunches I had there were kind of uneven, so I haven't been back in a few months.

I really, really recommend Ubuntu. We had an amazing lunch there today.

Bistro Jeanty previously mentioned is great, also in Yountville is Redd and Bottega. We were very impressed with Bottega when we dined there this past March. :)

Zinvalley is pretty good...very local. A bit hard to find, but worth the effort.

Note that ZinsValley has moved to Downtown Napa, shouldn't be hard to find any more.

I love the tomato soup in the puff pastry at Bistro Jeanty. That plus a salad or appetizer would make a great lunch!

That is my perfect lunch too! That soup is to die for.

Me, myself I can totally do vegetarian but there are 3 others to consider. Not dismissing as of yet but will weigh the options as they come in. Thanks wolfe.

I know, I know, who wants to eat vegetables after a hard day pulling your carts through those muddy fairways? They want meat.

First of all, BarBersQ is barbeque which is average at best in the Bay Area. It is a cold, souless,contrived restaurant in a shopping mall with a view of Whole Foods. Talent in the kitchen? No. Probably a Latino cook following instructions.

However, it would be karma for someone foolish enough to pick this place over Ubuntu.
