    One of the best places to get a reasonably priced lunch outside under the warm Napa sun. Don't miss the Harissa Grilled Oysters or Chowder and read all about it on WinstonWanders below! Read more

    The rustic seafood stew is delicious. Nice tomato broth, more herby than spicy, loaded with seafood. Cod cooked perfectly. Highly recommended.

    We were there on Wed night (happy hour). The oysters were clean and fresh. The minion was very tasty and added to the crispness. They only have happy hour on Tuesday and Wednesday too bad!!

    Learned about Oyster shucking and enjoyed the most delicious garlic grilled, oysters, washed down by a local IPA. Highly recommend this as a stop in downtown Napa!

    Slurp slurp, slurp your way thru fresh harvested oysters brought in from Tomales Bay at this legendary producers second satellite restaurant. Hidden gem: the HIO Grilled Cheese Sandwich.

    The Grill cheese is bonkers! Kumamoto Oysters and the Clam chowder too. Dip the grilled cheese into the soup ftw!

    You want the BBQ oysters and local Point Reyes oysters on the half shell. Don’t mess around. Get a dozen. Then order the bread which is delish.

    Whoa. Possibly the best oysters I've had, Sweetwaters were amazing and if you're from the east coast you'll be a Pacific oyster convert after this.

    Sit outside and watch the Wine Train come by and the Napa river flow by while enjoying my new favourite dish here. The fish stew.

    I tried seafood chowder & rustic seafood stew, and they were both quite good. The price was a bit on the expensive side.

    If the Fresh Bolinas Dungeness Crab is on the menu, look no further. Order it roasted with garlic and chili. Insanely delicious.
