Having walked by this bistro, we made a reservation based on the menu and what looked to be a great outdoor ambiance. When we arrived the next evening at 7:30, we were surprised by how empty the place was. We were met (not greeted) by an individual who also became our waitress. Once seated, we promptly received water (flavored by... more

This was a very pleasant surprise after eating at the Calistoga Inn the previous night (see separate review). The service was good with friendly staff. Our 8 and 10 year olds were made very welcome and they were more than happy to allow our kids to split an entree (we found in California there is often a charge for this).... more

Wappo came highly recommended, so my boyfriend and I decided to have a relaxing dinner there. They fit us right in. My water arrived and tasted terrible - boyfriend didn't even drink his, but as he said, he wasn't there to drink water. The service was slow but that didn't bother us - the place was packed and our waiter... more

Maybe we got lucky because it was the off season, but my friends and I had a wonderful experience. The food was fantastic and the service was great. We were one of 3 tables of customers in our server's section, so maybe that gave us an advantage. I would definitely go back. more

To start, the service was terrible. The waiter took 20 minutes to even greet the table. We waited another 15 minutes for our wine. The bottle was empty before appetizers arrived. Never did the waiter appear to check to see if we were happy with the appitizers, which we weren't. One would think drunk starving people would eat just about... more

Arranged for a party of 8 to meet at Wappo for lunch as a kick off to a wine tasting weekend. We had some delicious salads and sandwiches. Ate under the grape trellis outside and could not have been more pleased. The Wappo had a jazz guitarist plaing in the backgound and felt like the prices were reasonable for that... more

I live and work in Napa. I have recommended this restaurant to so many people it is embarrassing. I apologize. I was there a few days ago and shocked at the service, the food and yes the atmosphere. Next time you want to eat in Calistoga do it in St. Helena. I don't want to sit outside. I don't want... more

The first time I went to the Wappo, was after an impromptu visit to Calistoga with friends left an indelible mark on my memory. The graceful and unassuming atmosphere did not prepare me for the meal to which I was treated. The appetizers shared amongst my four friends and I had me figuratively holding a drool cup. My grilled goat... more

We almost always check TripAdvisor for hotel and dining ideas, but during a recent vacation in Calistoga we let our guard down and went to the Wappo Bar and Bistro without reading up on it first. Bad move. The food was okay, though not great for the prices charged. The real problem was the service, which has been mentioned by... more
