Grace's Table

Nestled in the heart of Napa, Grace's Table is a vibrant New American restaurant and bistro that effortlessly blends the comfort of classic brunch fare with inventive, globally inspired dishes. Located at 1400 2nd St, this neighborhood gem draws you in with an open-air dining concept that feels as inviting as a lively family reunion—think garage door wide open, fresh air mingling with the aromas of rich spices and sizzling grill.

The culinary offerings here are a delightful journey through bold flavors and thoughtful craftsmanship. Start your meal with the Iron Skillet Cornbread served with a delicate lavender honey butter — a dish that’s buttery, moist, and subtly aromatic, perfectly balanced to riff on a southern classic. While some guests find the lavender butter an adventurous twist, the cornbread itself is universally lauded for its golden crust and melt-in-your-mouth texture. Don’t miss the Argentinean Empanada bursting with hand-cut beef, currants, olives, and a bright chimichurri sauce that dances on the palate, or the smoky-sweet Glazed Pork Belly featuring applewood-smoked kurobuta, roasted apple, and a maple pork glaze that's both indulgent and refined.

Main dishes showcase Grace's Table's commitment to elevated comfort food with global flair. The Southwest Tamale is a standout with its chipotle-pulled pork, green chili, and chili-lime slaw, delivering smoky warmth balanced by fresh cilantro dressing. For meat lovers, the succulent Kobe Flat Iron Steak & Eggs and the perfectly seared Kobe Hanger Steak Frites offer robust, juicy bites accompanied by crisp, well-seasoned fries or onion rings, which are often declared irresistible thanks to their fine chili D’Espelette-Parmesan seasoning. The House Cured Salmon Gravlax on toasted bagels introduces a delicate, silky seafood option that's complex and refreshing.

Grace's Table truly shines at brunch, with offerings like fluffy House Buttermilk Pancakes topped with local berries, and vibrant plates like the Beet Salad and the ever-popular Shrimp and Grits. The drink menu complements the food beautifully—whether it's a Virgin Bloody Mary or a bubbly Bellini, the beverages offer an uplifting, refreshing touch to your meal.

The ambiance matches the food in its inviting warmth. The open garage-style dining area creates an airy, casual vibe with plenty of natural light, while the friendly, attentive staff ensure you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. Many guests appreciate how the atmosphere combines the energy of downtown Napa with an intimate, neighborhood feel, making it a perfect stop whether you're heading to wine tasting or celebrating a special occasion.

Customer experiences reflect a genuine love for Grace's Table's approach. From Alex DeMartino, who praised the cornbread and perfectly seasoned fries, to Javier Calderon, who called it a “family-owned gem” and raved about the staff's warmth and value, the consensus is clear: this is a place that delivers bold flavors with heartfelt hospitality. Even with a smaller parking area, diners find the short walk worthwhile for the satisfying meal and cozy vibe.
