My husband took me here for my birthday. Bartender hooked us up with his amazing house drinks and crab appetizer, as we waited to be seated for dinner. The owner, Gabriel, waited on us and the food was perfect! We just happened to walk up the street to find a place to eat for my birthday and glad we chose Carpe Diem and definitely will be going back! ❤️

It’s one of my favorite spots in downtown Napa to grab a quick and delicious meal from their happy hour menu, which is always a joy! I recommend their generous fries, the cheese platter, or rib tacos! There are many items to choose from!

Appetizers are great, entrees are not. The salad was bright, fresh, and light. Enjoyed the lemon vinagarette. The mushroom Flatbread was really tasty. great Mushroom taste, and the dough didn’t take away from the bite. Fresh herbs on it would have been a home run. Calimari wasn’t greasy and the chili sauce was delicious. but a bit too many fried onions but the fried green beans were an unexpected treat!

Nice classy place. The owner was very welcoming and even gave me some background on the building. The meal was fantastic. I had the Sweet Chili Calamari to start and the breading was nice and flaky, calamari was tender. After I had the Frenched Lamb rack. It was cooked to a perfect medium per my opinion (which is debatable). And paired with a local Pinot Noir, Crisp home fries and French green beans. The meal and atmosphere were calming. I had an outside table and got some good pics. DEFINITELY recommend!

The cheese board at Carpe Diem Restaurant and Bar in Napa, CA, is a culinary masterpiece that embodies the art of indulgence. Each carefully selected cheese is a testament to the expertise and passion of the culinary team, showcasing a diverse array of flavors, textures, and origins. From creamy to aged, from local to international, every cheese tells a unique story that unfolds with every savory bite.

Wonderful corner restaurant with a small feel and amazing dishes. They have outdoor seating as well to accommodate more people. We had a Cesar salad and Octopus salad (highly recommended), and a NY Strip plus and the Short Ribs with Mushroom Risotto. Everything smelled fantastic and tasted amazing! The NY Strip came with a broccoli puree dip that was so tasty; even for those who don’t like to put anything else on their meat it had to be done due to its flavor. The Short Ribs did not need any coaxing to fall apart and paired nicely with the risotto. It had a good bit of salt but that’s what assisted with the risotto. We were too stuffed to have any dessert! The mixed drinks (only had 1) are unique and they are very happy with their pouring. Highly recommend to go and try something new.
