Bistro Jeanty is a dining institution and a must-visit for anyone who dreams in steak frites and coq au vin. With bright yellow walls and country-inspired finds—like a bicycle with a basket filled with baguettes—it would be easy to find a trendier option, but then you’ll be sad to have missed out on the simple yet indulgent menu of buttery comfort dishes: escargot, steak tartare, and the best chocolate croissant bread pudding in Napa. This spot transforms based on the occasion. It’s perfectly suited for a low-lit romantic dinner, or for talking shop with colleagues you’re passing through town with. There’s also an extensive wine list, but lean on their talented bartenders—the cocktail menu includes dessert-flavored options like brandy alexanders and salted-caramel espresso martinis. If you’re here during the colder months, the tomato soup with billowing puff pastry is one of their most popular, can’t-miss dishes.
