Restraurant Reviews from Around LA

Chateau Simard Saint Emilion 1995, Merlot

Picked this up at Victor's Liquors, asking for a $20-$30 red to go with Pizza, and was told this was too good for Pizza (and it was way too good for the pizza we got), and they were right. This was an excellent wine, and delicious.

A gorgeous vineyard all the way around, without the most impressive wine though. Not bad, but not my favorite, but well worth checking out, and with some very cool memorabilia from Coppola's movie.

This is the oldest continually running Winery in Napa, since they made it through prohibition by making Medicinal and Religious wine. It was recently sold to Fosters, but is still run the same. The best tour we went on in the valley.

I had been fiending for some good pizza and red wine after hearing how well they go together in Napa, but it was getting late, and we wanted to order, and I had this menu around. I must say I was very unimpressed all the way around. Stay away from this place.

Excellent Indian food, the spiciest I have had at a restaurant, with a full bar. A little bit pricy, and they screwed up my check, but it is well worth checking out if you like Indian food.

I admit it, we only went to this winery because it is the only free wine tasting left in the valley, but it was well worth it, and even ordered 6 bottles of wine from their. Their is a reason they have a free tasting, and you can only get their wine there, or from their web site, it is not carried in any store, so you really must try it out.

Excellent food and excellent service. A great french menu, though it was a little hot out on the patio, but that wasn't their fault. Sure it is a bit pricy, but certainly worth checking out.

A very tasty Italian cafe in Napa, near the visitor information center where we learned about Napa, and where we wanted to go. Tasty food, with decent wine, though the waitress seemed a little new, and screwed up my girlfriends order.

This is a very good Korean BBQ that I have actually been to a few times. Used to go for many of my friend's birthdays, and always went a enjoyed it. Did have a couple of not so great experiences, but this last time this place was back up to it's best standards. It may not be as good as Seoul Jung at the Wilshire Grand in downtown, but it is still great. Not only that, but they have a new all you can eat , it is cheaper on weekdays, but on Fridays and the Weekend it is $16.99 per person, and you get to keep just eating, though you basically need to finish all the meet you are given or you will be charged extra for it. Of course as with other Korean BBQ's, their is a grill at your table, and you get to cook your own meet, which is always fun and enjoyable, and you get a million little side dishes, including a salad, and it adds up to so many different flavors (and of course they have kimchi which is one of my favorite foods.
