Best Hot Spot Restaurants in Benicia

Bella Sienna remains the only true, fine dining establishment in the Benicia/Vallejo area. It's our go to place when we want a four star meal with a view. The cocktails are the finest around. Our server Valentino, who we have encountered multiple times, is knowledgeable, witty, charming and knows just how to please demanding customers like us.

Went for my boyfriends birthday, as a first timer it most definitely won’t be our last! The service from Ian was AMAZING of itself but the food was perfect! Such an awesome experience and we cannot wait to come back with friends and family.

I used to love this place, then I moved abroad for 20 years, but went here again, and it is just as good as I remember!! grilled perfection! the dining room is cozy and warm, the booth seats comfortable. our server was the best - attentive but not intrusive - he really did an outstanding job (don't recall his name but has worked there 9 years and has 2 little kids, brown hair with some facial hair - shout out to him - he did a great job!) appetizers arrived lightning fast - aubergine and warm pita, grilled stuffed calamari(YUM), lamb meatballs (nomnomnom), baked gigante beans. mains were lamb skewers (yum) and branzino(5star), which was insanely delish and highly recommended. dessert was baklava, which I don't normally love, but theirs was sooo good and spicy, I highly recommend, and we got an ice cream sundae which was enormous and tasty. im so pleased Kokkari is still around and better than ever. great meal - thanks to the entire team!! can't wait to go back !!

Wonderful experience and food. We were visiting Napa and decided after reading the reviews to try Cole's and we are so glad we did. The service was excellent and the steaks were divine. My husband had a 10oz Filet and I chose the aged 14oz strip and both were cooked perfectly. We chose French onion soup, which was cheesy and delicious, and a caser salad ( the only thing that felt flat) and had our bottle of Barnett wine. We had sides of the Truffle fries, which were a large portion, crispy and yummy, so we shared them. Desert was a bourbon bread pudding and very good and sharable. We will be back and highly recommend this restaurant in downtown NAPA

What a find! Food choices were great- love the fact they are shareable as it's hard sometimes for my wife and me to try different things at a restaurant with individual/full portions. Quality was excellent as dishes are innovative, accurately described, and tasty. Don't pass on the caviar potato cloud (insider tip- order one for yourself instead of sharing)! And the drinks are also innovative and quite balanced in their flavor profiles!
