Dining room at The Restaurant at Meadowood, St. Helena, CATHIS RESTAURANT IS TEMPORARILY CLOSED FOR RENOVATIONS Perched where oak canopies give way to a golf green ringed with pine forests, The Restaurant creates a soigné stage for one of Napa Valley’s most transcendent dining experiences. Settle in underneath parasol-like beams veiling picture windows and wainscoting; in summertime, choose the surrounding covered porch. Surrender to the tasting menu---by all means, this is the place to do so. Chef Christopher Kostow’s royal treatment may include dishes such as Wagyu beef cured with the property’s pine and dotted meticulously with hamachi and Scandinavian flavors; or langoustine and pork belly with fish sauce. Raise your carving knife for local goat in vadouvan, fresh dates, carrots and black lime. Stay armed for roasted bavette paired with bitter greens, brown butter jus and Taleggio. A grand finale might be “Impressions of Coffee” or, from the prix-fixe menu, “To Quicken the Heart”: flavors of umami, red cedar and buttered popcorn. Given the wine list’s 1,100-ish bottlings, 80 percent from California, the best bet may be to allow the wine steward to create cunning course pairings.
