Sushi, Craft Cocktails, and More Newness in Napa and Sonoma


Bay Grape Napa

The little Oakland bottle shop that could has grown up with a Napa outpost. It opened in the last week of March with an enormous patio for drinking wine and enjoying snacks. The snacks include bread from fellow newcomer West Won Bakery, a custom-made paté from Contimo Provisions, and local cheeses, cured meats, and olives, too.


Ace and Vine

A late-night destination has hit sleepy downtown Napa, known for its early last call. And notably it has the only gaming license in the city of Napa, making its debut as a California Casino, too. Card games but no slots. A very extensive menu of “Asian fusion” dishes for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner. Cocktails, beer, wine, and fire-pits can also be found on the patio, which overlooks the Napa River.


Empress M, a 5,000-square-foot restaurant serving dim sum and other Chinese delicacies at lunch and dinner.


From Top Chef alum Casey Thompson comes Folktable, a bright and airy daytime restaurant located in Cornerstone Sonoma.
