Napa River Grill Restaurant Review

: West Coast "hipness" travels surprisingly well to Kentucky, even with Napa River Grill being located in a suburban shopping center. Metalwork, wood, leather and glass create a stylish oasis and fit surroundings for the artfully assembled dishes that arrive at your table. Relax in the chic bar area where a list of "Napa Tidbits" is served: Bodega Bay crab cake, portobello fingers, Asian ahi nachos and curry-scented Caribbean scallops. Entrées include an aged, 14-ounce rib-eye; veal scaloppine with pomodoro sauce; pad thai with a choice of chicken, shrimp or tofu; and salmon seared in a cast iron skillet and finished with a tongue-teasing orange Dijon sauce. Most of the desserts feature chocolate, including the peanut butter chocolate crème brûlée and a dense flourless chocolate torte. But do have a slice of the aptly named “Luscious Lemon” Bundt cake for the table to share. Selections from the mostly West Coast wine list complement the fare.
