Cook St. Helena
$$$$•Italian•4.9(1,696)Specializing in elegant but straight-forward Northern Italian cuisine, created from local and seasonal ingredients.
A family-owned business, Cook St. Helena, is a neighborhood establishment through and through that continues to bring people together around fresh, handmade, delicious food in a warm, casual atmosphere. We opened Cook in 2004 to show the locals and tourists alike that food does not need to be complicated to taste great!Market
$$$$•American•4.8(4,351)Market in St. Helena offers an elegant, yet comfortable dining experience with a fresh take on American classics. At Market we focus on using fresh and seasonal ingredients. Our high quality food comes from local organic farms, which makes dining here a pure treat. Our refined atmosphere and warm genuine service creates an inviting environment for all to enjoy. Market's cuisine is flavor forward, visually stunning, and simply delicious. Market is a great place to stop for a quick lunch or a nice sit down meal. We are very engaged with the local wineries, and will help you find the perfect glass to complement any of our dishes. We look forward to seeing you soon at Market
Harvest Table
$$$$•Contemporary American•4.7(1,502)Welcome to Harvest Table, a rustic Californian wine country kitchen featuring menus that highlight locally sourced ingredients and the best of the Napa Valley. An airy space flanked by alfresco dining terraces, Harvest Table offers a welcoming atmosphere for relaxed Wine Country dining. A 12-seat U-shaped bar fronts the 80-seat restaurant, where smooth wood finishes are offset by the classic brickwork of an oversized fireplace under the glow of abundant natural light. Taking inspiration from its juxtaposition of organic and man-made landscaping, Harvest Table is an honest and refined restaurant, ideal for St. Helena gatherings.Violetto
$$$$•Italian•4.3(20)Violetto is an intimate, dinner-only dining experience shaped by the seasons of Napa Valley and guided by Italian tradition with French influence. Under the direction of Chef Mark Shoemaker, the menu unfolds as either a four-course tasting with guest choice or an eight-course seasonal journey, each composition reflecting a deep respect for product, place, and technique.
Ingredients are sourced from nearby farms, our estate garden, and the surrounding vineyards, allowing each dish to express Northern California with clarity and restraint.
Our wine program, recognized with the Wine Spectator Award of Excellence, is thoughtfully curated to complement the menu, bridging Napa Valley with benchmark European producers.

- TTerasaDallas - Fort Worth •10 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoRecommended by one of the wineries as a local favorite, and it did not disappoint. The restaurant is not very big so reservations are a must. Everything was great from the burrata appetizer, to the salad, and homemade pasta special. The wait staff was very attentive. We never had to ask for a refill on water, and they were happy to bring extra bread with the appetizer and main course.More infoCook St. Helena$$$$• Italian• St. Helena•4.9

- AAchille MSan Francisco Bay Area •8 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoMy granddaughter and I went for a special dinner - anything with her is special. I don't remember having a better server in the past 20-years. He was engaging, interesting, interested, prompt, made wonderful wine & food selectioins. His name is Jesse and he was simply delightful. Because of Bottle Rock in Napa, we almost had te entire restaurant to our selves - which was fine. We had the tasting wine fare which was 3 half glasses of wine. My granddaughter had red and I had white wine. We had two appetizers and two entrees. Every course was spot on. We ended the evening listening to a man sing and play the guitar. Just a wonderful eveing with my granddaughter & Jesse !!!More infoThe Saint$$$$• American• St. Helena•4.3
