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.

    We celebrated our anniversary at Mustards Grill and were greeted with a lovely welcome glass of champagne, which set the tone for a wonderful evening. The food was absolutely incredible—starting with the most delicious onion rings, followed by a perfectly cooked crab cake and an ahi sandwich that exceeded all expectations. Our waitress went above and beyond, thoughtfully splitting all of our dishes for us, making it so much easier to enjoy everything. Despite being the 1st of the year, the restaurant was packed, which speaks to its popularity. Initially, we were hesitant to go, but after so many recommendations from winery staff, we decided to try it—and we’re so glad we did. Mustards Grill truly lives up to its reputation, and we can’t wait to return!

    Everything about The Depot was wonderful!! We were seated immediately for our 5:30 reservation, and our server was very attentive from the beginning. From our drink order through the appetizer and finally the main courses, our server was very attentive and personable. The timing of courses couldn’t have been better, we were able to visit amongst ourselves and the items presentation was seamless and quick. The quality of the appetizer (calamari) and entrees was excellent! I can’t say enough good things about our experience at The Depot in Sonoma! I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone! 5 Stars!!
