Congratulations to The Restaurant at Meadowood Team and Chef Christopher Kostow for earning two stars in Michelin's 4th annual San Francisco Bay Area & Wine Country Restaurant Guide 2010

The Restaurant at Meadowood is one of four San Francisco Bay Area restaurants to earn the prestigious two-star rating – as well as the only two-star establishment in the Napa Valley. The honor follows The Restaurant's recent accolade of being named the #1 Best Food & Wine Resort in the 2009 "Reader's Choice Special Awards" in Andrew Harper's Hideaway Report.

Chef Kostow's menu offers dishes that draw on the bounty of the seasons, while taking a disciplined approach to modern French fare. The Restaurant's prix-fixe menus are also paired with expertly selected wines by Sommelier Rom Toulon, with overall service overseen by Restaurant Director Nathaniel Dorn.

The two-star rating indicates "Excellent Cuisine, worth a detour," based on five criteria: the quality of the products; mastery of flavor and cooking; the "personality" of the cuisine; the value for the money; and consistency between visits.

The Restaurant at Meadowood is open for dinner Monday through Thursday 6:00 to 9:00 p.m.; Friday and Saturday 6:00 to 9:30 p.m. For additional information or to make a reservation, please call (972)771.3510.

This is your invitation to an exceptional Wine Experience which you will remember forever.

Our wine tours are truly gourmet and select wine experiences, but they are certainly not stuffy. Sure, you will dine at Michelin starred restaurants, but we don’t chase stars. We’ll take you to the good ones, not the stuffy ones. No impressive, formal restaurants where eating sometimes turns into an exam! We prefer the more contemporary "younger" ones. Forget the snobbery that is the enemy of true wine and food lovers. For us wine is fun and is to be enjoyed and shared with friends. We love wine and hate snobbery, so there you go.
