Carpe Diem offers a sophisticated, yet casual dining experience in the heart of downtown Napa. It's pretty pricey it's not like it's $10, a typical meal runs from $30 and up. - Award-winning Ostrich Burger If you like to start with an appetizer I suggest the Charcuterie Board and we did the 5 selection! I checked it out on Friday and ordered a Tortilla Soup! I wasn't feeling those either I wanted like a pork chop or a beef something. The spicy mule was delicious, it was spicy and well balanced. Their wine and cocktail menu were truly impressive. We also had the octopus appetizer which was also delish.We visited on a Friday evening for drinks and found a table for our party of 4. I apologize for the miscommunication. !Came here for some wine and snacks, and it was perfect! Scott (who was bartending but is the chef) provided exceptional service. Moving on to our entres all 3 of us ordered the Ravioli stuffed with braised short rib meat in a Devine Cream/Truffle Sauce Oh My!! I was very kind and explains why I didn't like the taste of the duck and told him that I'm sure the duck is cooked the way it's supposed to. … and 3 of the cheeses. The ambiance was very nice and romantic. JT takes care of his customers! I had the scallops and he had the duck. Come “Seize the Day” at Carpe Diem. When I got my bill the deck was still on there and the owner said to me that's because you said it was your pallet not because we did anything on our end.
At Carpe Diem, a simple bowl of popcorn isn’t so simple when it’s topped with truffle oil. It s 11:00 AM on a Sunday morning and every other restaurant in this plaza is packed Villa Corona is almost empty. We also ordered the butternut squash aranchini which was ok, nothing worth repeating. The truffle fries were delicious, not overpowering with the truffle flavor but you still got the truffle flavor with the crispy fries. - Craft beers brewed on site Our welcoming, enthusiastic staff and ever-changing menu bring uniqueness to the table. The host was very heartwarming and the waitress was super sweet as well.Great spot. A few of our specialties include (not limited to): About See All. We were skeptical by past reviews but wanted to try the place.

The happy hour menu was very affordable with good options.I rarely give a 5 star review because I want those to be reserved for truly worthy places! That's my bad. We sat at the bar and shared the white wine flight, the red wine flight, the popcorn (free with Yelp check-in!)
Crispy, fresh and flavorful! We came at the end of the night but the weather was perfect for outdoor seating, great place for a quick bit for parents and still have an upscale meal. The balls were average, while the other three dishes were quite good. I would definitely come back.So many options in Napa and this place was very good. Not a lot to choose from. The calamari and the fries were standout and went down the fastest. I can't believe this place is literally down the street from my job! The owner agreed with me and walked back in as I ordered a drink of Hendrix gin and tonic which are $14 by the way. We wanted to make sure your experience ended on a high note and hope you enjoyed the complimentary beignets we sent out. This place was Amazing. Service was efficient. Our enthusiastic staff and lively atmosphere bring uniqueness to the table. - Corporate/private dining experiences
Our Story. We sat at a table, and they also have a bar. Beautiful wood, lighting, etc. The service was great too, our bartender was really helpful and friendly! There was appetizers and cheese plates. The truffle popcorn was delicious, make sure to redeem that offer!
