As a frequent diner at Terra, French Laundry and La Toque in Napa Valley, I must admit the food at Napa Rose was definitely a pleasant surprise and certainly can hold its own against the best of NoCal. Even though the atmosphere is Disney-like and certainly lacks the rustic charms of some of its counterparts, one must remember that the reason we go to restaurants is for great food, wine and service. This place has all three areas covered. I would definitely recommend this place over all other restaurants I've been to in OC including Pinot Provence and the Ritz-Carlton. Try the lamb shank, prime pork rib, or the salmon. For dessert, I'd recommend the chocolate ""decadence"" or the pate. If you've got a larger party, I'd stay away from the price fix menu and instead order different entrees. You definitely get to taste more of everything that way.
Pros: great food, attentive service
Cons: theme park-like atmos, some overpriced wine
