When it comes to luxury accommodations, there’s no doubt that the Carneros Resort and Spa is among the finest. This A-List award-winning property offers the ultimate in an upscale lodging experience. But for foodies, the Carneros Resort and Spa is a gastronomic paradise on earth. It will only take one visit to see why each of the three dining entities here can individually be regarded as one of the best resort restaurants in Northern California.

The Carneros Resort and Spa is located in the Napa Valley in Northern California. Surrounded by scenic countryside views and 28 acres of rolling vineyards, coming here feels like a wonderful dream.

Foodies coming here for an exceptional dining experience will find three restaurants. They can choose from The FARM at Carneros, the Boon Fly Café, or the Hilltop Dining Room. However please note that the latter is exclusively for resort guests. Nevertheless, together they are among the best resort restaurants in Northern California.

To say that the food here is creative doesn’t begin to scratch the surface.

Are you a fan of farm-to-table dining? Every dish at each of the restaurants is carefully curated using fresh produce grown in the resort’s very own culinary garden.

Colorful hues are displayed on every plate, every aspect of which is edible.

The chefs at the Carneros Resort and Spa are hailed for their elevated gastronomic menus. And because of this, they draw folks from all over the Northern California area who enjoy unparalleled fine dining.

Not only is this fried chicken dish delicious, but it is also a feast for the rest of your senses.

Other menu items encompass things like the Sonoma Red Chicken served with spring ramps, wild morels, and a mushroom glacage. Diners also love the Acquerello Risotto with roasted winter squash, hobbs bacon, candied ginger, and brown butter mousse. And the flatbreads like the Ohlone Smoked Salmon created with fromage blanc, red onion, parmesan, and lemon crème fraiche are other crowd favorites.

From the small bites to the savory starters, what they call “Garden Provisions,” and main entrees, you’ll be awash in flavor and texture.

The Carneros Resort and Spa also has its own chicken coop. From it they source the farm fresh eggs laid there for many of their dishes.

The creations here are almost too beautiful to eat. But then you’d be missing out on a truly amazing treat!

And as you might imagine, guests can pair their meals with phenomenal wines from the Napa Valley. Craft beers and a wide array of specially handcrafted cocktails also make great food pairings.

A stunning setting paired with outstanding epicurean fare is what makes the Carneros Resort and Spa a quintessential Napa experience and a paradise for foodies.
