Tyler FoxDecember 31, 2017The ostrich burger & truffle fries that accompany it are very good. But the Five Dot Ranch Short Rib is absolutely fantastic and pairs excellent with wine. Twix bar dessert is killer to finish it off!
Ask McKenzie about bubbles at happy hour everyday of the week. Check in with a photo on Foursquare and something almost too good to let slip will happen, as long as GM Jim isn't watching too closely.
iPhone JunkieXLAugust 13, 2013Add this place to the ever growing list of why I need to move to Napa! Beside the fact that every dish was amazing, the house made Buratta was euphoric. Split as many of the small dishes as you can!
Napa Valley Film FestivalNovember 6, 2012Try the Fried Green Tomatoes: Fresh sweet corn cake, housemade bacon, tomato emulsion, habañero oil, crispy arugula, a poached egg w/a Secret sauce! "Movies to Dine For" NVFF Foodspotting menu item. Read more
John HaberlandJuly 21, 2013Nice casual place that has good small plates as well as nice wine/beer selection without any unnecessary pomp. The burrata app is probably something like you've ever had, so try it.
Raquel MacgregorMarch 13, 2014Excellent small plates. Try the butternut squash risotto balls or the roasted garlic goat cheese dip with pepitas. Wine selection is extensive.- The Quack and Cheese is a great snack. Just like Mac and Cheese, but it includes Crispy Duck Skin. Of course, the wine and food pairing here are beyond compare.
KristinaDecember 31, 2017The ostrich burger is delicious! Comes with a Brie cheese that totally completes the burger. Highly recommended 👌- Allison PriceMay 3, 2014Went here for happy hour. It was amazing. Get the goat cheese dip and the mini quack and cheese. Yummm

@mecee (Christopher Calicott)August 15, 2013Carpe Diem actively utilizes Foursquare for check-in specials and freebies. I got a free truffle popcorn!
Visit Napa ValleyOctober 20, 2011Love a good burger? Then don’t miss out on the Ostrich burger with the side of truffle fries. Simply delicious!- Candlelight Inn Napa ValleyAugust 6, 2014
Rob B.July 23, 2013Excellent food. Service is dependent on mood of server. Ours was not cool. Beware of the 4sq special. Only one order per group allowed, even tho special says otherwise.
Bryan FoxApril 3, 2012Thanks nick at VC for the great suggestion! Truffle popcorn amazing. Cheese and meat tho mind blowing.
Ask co-owner and wine bar guru Steve Distler to surprise you on your next glass. You won't be disappointed.
Carpe Diem is the new local hotspot! Make sure to save room for dessert... They even have one called "happy ending"
Esra SokmenOctober 23, 2013Delicious food but expensive. 25 dollar cheese & charcuterie plate was really small in size.
Steve is great. So is the flatbread. Also try the truffle popcorn with the DVX bubbles
Try the ostrich burger. It will change your life.
Bring back the pulled pork sliders! Okay, that's more of a request than a tip...
- I recommend Stuffed Shrooms Brown Estate 2009 'Chaos Theory' Napa Zin #wine
Ask Steve what's NOT on the wine list! You'll never be disappointed...
Try the domaine corners bubbles with the mushroom flat bread! Life will be good to you!
