Olive & Hay - Napa (CA)

5 /5 Angie Ng: We had both lunch and dinner here and everything was amazing! Lunch – We ordered the pizza and Italian salad, both were delicious, especially the salad dressing. So flavorful! Dinner – We had the truffle fries, NY steak, asparagus, and carbonara. Every dish was fresh and tasty, and the portions were just right. The service was excellent and the ambiance was lovely. Highly recommended!

5 /5 alyssa ultreras: My family and I tried an array of items on the dinner menu and were pleasantly impressed! We loved the pastas, artichoke, and chicken Marsala. We shared the carbonara and rigatoni which was very 10/10 and packed with bold flavors, we especially loved the carbonara! The artichoke and aioli sauce were fire. Also shoutout are waiter Wilbert for providing us excellent service and recommendations!

2 /5 Alice Hou: We were staying at the Meritage, and this is the only restaurant on the property. Since we had a reservation, we were seated quickly. We ordered the House Made Focaccia, Calabria pizza, Rigatoni, and the Bucatini. The House-Made Focaccia was very oily, and honestly, not very memorable. The Calabria Pizza came with calabrese sausage, mozzarella, calabrian chili honey, and parmesan. It had a sweet and savory flavor, but the crust was soft and floppy. The Rigatoni was made of braised lamb ragu, creamy tomato sauce, radicchio, and fiore sardo. While the lamb was tender, the portion was small, probably just 4 pieces in it. The Bucatini was made of black pepper, pecorino romano, and parmesan mousse, which was skippable. The flavor was overwhelmingly just black pepper flavor after all. We had the tiramisu served in a moka pot alongside a scoop of vanilla gelato. The gelato was great, but the tiramisu was overly soggy and fell short of expectations. Service was lacking, our waiter didnt check on us until we were finished with our meal.

5 /5 Halay-ay Chiqui “Chicks”: We had such a wonderful experience at Olive & Hay in Napa Valley! Thank you to the team for welcoming us even though we arrived about 30 minutes before closing on a Thursday night. Our waiter, Da, provided outstanding service—attentive, kind, and professional. We also had the pleasure of chatting with Eunice and Emily, who made us feel so genuinely welcomed. The food and service were beyond expectations—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. What stood out even more was the warm hospitality that made us feel like regulars. It was such a nice surprise seeing Eunice again, as she served us brunch last year and we still remembered her kindness and care. The restaurant is also conveniently close to Vino Bello Resort, where we were staying. Olive & Hay will definitely be a regular stop for us, and we’ll be recommending it to friends and family visiting Napa. We look forward to coming back next year!
