Mustards Grill Restaurant Review:
About the restaurant: Owner Cindy Pawlcyn’s landmark roadhouse is as emblematic of Napa Valley as the spunky plant that brightens the vineyards. The cozy dining room, with worn-in dark wood wainscoting and a checked marble floor gently cracked, reflects a quarter century of love.
Food & Drinks: The menu keeps contemporary and seasonal, and melds Asian and Mediterranean touches with approachable mainstays. Start with extra crispy, tender calamari under a haystack of sweet curry slaw and arugula; fluffy corn mash tamales spooned onto husks with creamy tomatillo-avocado salsa; or an irresistible pile of thin onion rings, intertwined like Barrel of Monkeys served with house-made apple-tomato ketchup. Entrées from the wood oven beckon: barbecued baby-back ribs with apple-golden raisin slaw and cheddar-jalapeño corn sticks. Among the comforting desserts is a mile-high lemon-lime meringue tart. Close seating creates a buzzing community, encouraging easy cross-table conversation. Extensive new world wine list, with fine by-the-glass selections.
