What sets this place apart from the dozens of other nice restaurants in the
Wine Country is that is it not trying to be trendy or appeal to the most recent
fad. My goodness, it's like France (quite a coincidence), a solid high quality
restaurant that remains stable for dozens of years (unlike most flash in
the pan US restaurants than open, get popular for a year of two, and then close).
It is like a little trip to France. The quality of the food, service, and wine
list are all outstanding. The dining room, with its open to the vineyard feel,
is timeless and elegant. It's always seemed like it was worth the money to
me, something you can't say about most of the restaurants in the Napa area.
Hint: join the Domaine Chandon club when you are there, you get a special phone
number to the restaurant, a free glass of champagne at your meal, and maybe
a touch of special service (it's free to join).

I must say that I have had a very disappointing and embarrassing
experience here. An associate and myself took a client to lunch,
who is a lifelong Napa resident. Since this was a business event
we wanted a suitable restuarant and selected Domaine Chandon. We
were faced with a very rude and inattentive staff, and we had to
wonder if they prefer to cater to tourists who have saved up for
the ultimate dining experience.
Admittedly the food was very good and the atmosphere is top notch,
however the service ruined our entire meal.
We first felt badly scrutinized as our guest was more casually
dressed than we, but still tastefull and appropriate. For some
reason we received disapproving looks, which I think is totally
inexcusable. The service dwindled rapidly to totally ignoring us
when it was realized we would only have an entree and possibly
dessert.
The worst part, however, was when we did order dessert and coffee.
The waiter took a lukewarm pot of used coffee from the next table,
where the patrons had just left, and put it in front of us to use.
We were, to say the least, aghast! In retrospect something
should have been said to the Manager, but we were beside
ourselves with embarrassment as we were trying to conclude a
business deal.
Enough said... we won't go back, and don't recommend you do.
