    It was our son’s birthday and we chose to eat outside. The young man that seated us was bright and charming…so nice. The weather could not have been better and our server, Mattie was lovely. The food was excellent as always and everyone at the table bragged that theirs was the best! We look forward to our next visit to The Goodyear House!

    A really nice experience at Napa last night. There were 9 people in our party and our server did an excellent job meeting all of our needs without hovering. She definitely gets 5 stars. Outside dining was great and everyone seemed to enjoy their food.

    The food was really good and outdoor space was perfect. I hate sitting out in the sun, but I do like being outside so I had a covered area open to the outdoors and the street wasn’t terrible with driving traffic but tons of people out walking around just a cool place to have lunch.
