    Great place to enjoy the view, the wine & fresh oysters . The service was superb . The bread was house backed and really fresh . We loved it all from the beginning to the very end . The sunset was beautiful along with 82 F weather that day

    Orlando was a spectacular waiter! By far one of the best restaurants I’ve been to in a long time.

    Service was excellent from the moment we pulled up and the valet greeted us. Zack our server in the bar area was attentive and friendly. The food was excellent. The Local BabyGreens salad was fresh,crisp and delicious. Highly recommend. Burger was done perfectly with tasty fries.

    Food was not great. It used to be much better. I remember pork belly, so good. Now the Auberge burger was overcooked. Asked for blankets outside. Not available. Heater over was broken. Yes, the view was great, but the ambiance was diminished.

    Auberge did not disappoint! Phenomenal service, food and views! Clearly a well-managed facility. We were greeted with warmth and courtesy from beginning to end. Definitely a favorite spot for the family. Thank you for making our holiday special.

    The view, food and service are top notch. If I have to pick one, I have say the service is by far exceeded my expectations. Every time we visit Napa this is the first place we book.
