The Restaurant at North Block sits within North Block Hotel on Washington Street, where Chef Antonio Natal cooks Northern California coastal cuisine drawing on the farms, valleys, and coastlines of the region. Live-fire cooking runs through the menu, applied to seafood, vegetables, and handmade pasta, with a chef's tasting menu available alongside the à la carte offerings.
The cocktail program, created by longtime local bartender Coy Estes, runs alongside the food rather than as an afterthought. Dining happens inside, at the bar, or in the dog-friendly courtyard, which doubles as a setting for private events and gatherings. The hotel also uses the dining room and lobby as rotating gallery space through its ongoing exhibition series, A Living Canvas, presented with regional artists and galleries.
The Restaurant at North Block was recommended in the 2025 Michelin Guide and selected for inclusion in the 2026 Michelin Guide to Wine Country.
Regulars point to the courtyard atmosphere and attentive service as reasons to return, calling the food and hospitality here worth the trip despite sitting somewhat in the shadow of Yountville's bigger names.
