Locals crowd the outdoor beer garden Sundays. Midweek we prefer the country dining
room's big oakwood tables - a homey spot for simple American cooking. Live music sum-
mer weekends.

$17-20, dinner $24-34; 7am-11am, 11:30am-3pm & 5:30-9pm)
We like the Spartan ag-chic look of this Michelin-starred resort restaurant, whose menu
maximizes seasonal produce in elegant dishes, playfully composed. And this being a spa ,
too, the menu is split for calorie-counters into light and hearty dishes. Reservations essen-
tial.

The inventive farm-to-table plates at chef-owned Jolé evolve seasonally, and may include
such dishes as local sole with tangy miniature Napa grapes, caramelized Brussels sprouts
with capers, and organic Baldwin apple strudel with burnt-caramel ice cream. Four courses
cost $55. Reservations essential.

A sparsely decorated cottage surrounded by a white-picket fence, Calistoga Kitchen is es-
pecially good for lunch in the garden. The chef-owner favors simplicity, focusing on qual-
ity ingredients in a half-dozen changing dishes, such as a delicious lamb stew. Reserva-
tions advised.
