Love the ambiance and the fact that they offer amazing champagne houses by the glass. Came for dinner with my husband and the whole experience was notable. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable,, the champagne was perfect and the food was good. G

I've eaten at plenty of restaurants in Napa, and I kinda feel that Torc is pretty underrated. They serve consistently great food that's as enjoyable as just about any other great restaurant in Napa. One of the great things about this plac
Just average food.
Service and ambience good. Price was a little high.Was not packed vl like most Napa eateries.
Another bday celebration at Torc.
Almost tempted to try a new bday dinner place but glad I did not! As always... superb ! 1. Heirloom Tomato Salad 2. Tempura Squash Blossoms ( always a classic here ... way before other retaurants ) 3. Tortelli with mushrooms and heirloom tomato

Ambiance and service were great! Food was good, with the our table standouts being the sweet potato appetizer, corn soup and the duck entree. Overall, while the food was good, I felt the prices to be expensive and no options where I could identify ev
Seems incredibly pretentious that the restaurant sells
Seems incredibly pretentious that the restaurant sells french fries but doesn't have any ketchup in the restaurant. Instead they provide you with "their version" of ketchup which is awful. Stop overthinking it and just have some Heinz
Wonderful waitstaff, all very kind and considerate.
Decor is fantastic and the food was amazing. We enjoyed everything we had and highly recommend!

The food was amazing! We ordered the jamon iberico, deviled eggs version of green eggs and ham, and the days special Ribeye. The way we're all delicious! Of course we took the Ribeye leftovers home and cooked it up the next day for steak and egg

I have always wanted to try Torc but could not get a reservation. Last Friday, my husband and I walked in and ready to just sit at the bar. Luckily, it was still early and was able to enjoy our dinner upstairs. We started with deviled eggs and ham

Wow, what a great dining experience! We were in Napa and chose this spot based on reviews and ease of getting a reservation, and it did not disappoint. Everything was outstanding, including the personable and attentive service. The tomato salad and p
A Memorable Dining Experience!
We enjoyed one of the best dining experiences of our lives tonight at Torc in Napa, CA! The service was incredible with a host of people taking care of our every need. Management and Staff came by to ensure we had everything we needed. They shared i

We absolutely love TORC!! High quality food with fair prices. The service is always phenomenal & very personable. Any chance my husband & I can get out to Napa, this is where we will always go.
Entirely unpleasant with endless upselling. No one needs a $135 chicken dish.
I will poke my eyes out before going back to this place. The aggressive upsell for steaks and a $135 CHICKEN dish -- server said twice, "buy champagne!!" The disdain for our choice of a mid-range bottle of wine -- "oh, she said. "
Great Food, Poor Experience.
For a place that charges these kinds of prices, you would expect the experience to rival the food quality. Alas, that was not the case with us as we suffered from pretty spotty service. We had made a reservation for 7:15pm and were greeted and seated
After you Hit whole foods, you can probably appreciate it moe- for PROS.
Quite good-not worth the money(im a chef). Get a good cookbook, grill and BBQ, then go. I you must go and just get drinks, not the prix fix.
Worst meal/ experience I've had at a restaurant in years
Biggest disappointment of our brief visit to Napa with our daughter and chef son-in-law from Wisconsin. The place was physically cold and uninviting from the moment we walked in. 3 of the 4 meals were awful with an undercooked chicken special for 2 a
Excellent food and drinks, good service, gluten-free no problem
Nice spot, lots of room between tables, so not too loud. Great cocktail, shared the grilled cheese and truffle and had paccheri. Fantastic with a bottle of Vermentino. Drank my dessert. No problem with gluten-free for our celiac member.

We dined at TORC last weekend before heading to a concert, and it was a wonderful experience. The tomato tart we tried was absolutely amazing. I ordered the mushroom risotto, which was rich and flavorful. The restaurant has a nice rustic atmosphere t
Good but pricy wine list.
We enjoyed a few shared plates and fish and steak entrees. One appetizer had a sauce that was so burningly spicy I could barely eat it (but I worked around it- lol). Seemed to be an anomaly because all other flavors were delicious and balanced. Servi
Came here for dinner with a friend.
Had never been there before, although I had walked by for many years. What a wonderful experience in terms of the food service the ambience and the overall experience of being there. We started with a couple of appetisers which included the Tartare
Torc is overall good, and has the potential to be great if
Torc is overall good, and has the potential to be great if they can improve their service. Most of the food was delicious-short rib, pasta, squash blossoms, ice cream. But some fell flat- like the snickerdoodle cookie lacked flavor. Also nothing that

I was told that this place serves "Napa" food by a local friend. I interpreted that to mean farm to table, elevated dishes at an elevated price... and I wasn't wrong on that. The menu is full of unique dishes, many of whose ingredients

Food is fabulous, drinks are delicious, atmosphere is cool, and the owner is usually there making sure everything is great. I'm sure it would be whether he was or not...staff is special, attentive, clearly foodies who appreciate other foodies. Love

Loved it! The food- good quality, very tasty.
The service- excellent. The ambiance- just right. Hubby and I went here for the first time for a quick bite right before they closed on our anniversary. Although we were their last customers, they were so gracious! We had the grilled cheese, t

This was my first time eating a Torch and I will definitely be going back. We started with the Truffle Grilled Cheese. While on the pricier side, it was delicious! We also had the Hamachi Tartare and the Beef Short Ribs, which were very good. The fla
This place is very, very loud.
I haven't finished my meal and I want to get up and leave. The food is good. It is too loud to talk to my date, who got up to go outside for a break from the noise. The service is slow. Or perhaps it only seems that way because I can't talk to my

Came here for dinner but ended up having to leave pretty abruptly bc my sister wasn't feeling well from all the wine tasting earlier in the day (not from the food). I did very much enjoy the little wedge salad, which was incredibly fresh and light. T

They have some really tasty and uniquely flavorful vegetarian options. I particularly enjoyed the mushroom bolognese pasta & the morel mushrooms. The creamy basmati rice was also yum! On top of this, the service was excellent. I haven't come acro

Has potential, but missed the mark.
The hamachi tartare was easily the highlight of the night, and a really standout dish. It had the perfect combination of flavor and texture. The scallops were also good. The prices are higher than many Michelin star restaurants though, and unfortuna
Good dining spot for Napa proper
Had dinner on a Saturday night before the Superbowl and before Valentine's Day. The restaurant was full and downtown Napa was busy with lots of people out and about. Our experience at Torc began with our busboy asking where we were from and when we t
Disappointing.
The flavors were overpowering for the palate. No dish was memorable. Chairs were uncomfortable. Very stylish place and yet the food was a flop for us. Staff was friendly, but, got our hopes up with the hype of the home made this and that, which was n

valentines week! Zoe our waitress made this dinner date special because of her love and passion for wine, culinary arts and customers. Clients remember her and come back to see her! Food is always stellar here! Detailed. Professional. Attentive.
Service was great.
Silverware was changed very often. Food was cooked just right. Added truffle to the pasta dish. Paired well.

We celebrated valentines day last weekend by having the most amazing steak dinner for two. But first my wife had a life changing gin martini. When we got home my wife realized she had left a wine bag at our table. She called and spoke with the Ma
A restaurant worthy of consideration
My daughter picked the restaurant out as it was highly regarded. We were not disappointed. We had just arrived in Napa. I had the crab cake which was superb. I believe the soup as well. The bar was well stocked and they were able to make a great

Was not so sure this was a place I wanted to go in Napa, but between the service, the food and the wine, they won me over. Had the tempura, the tuna and some excellent wine that made for a lovely evening.
Blow your mind
Well as a picky eater the menu was very intricate. Then they had family dining with steaks for 4 or a whole chicken and fries for 4. The table out voted me and we ate the chicken. WOW, soft and moist - with the chicken fat rendered on the fries. Per
Best food in Napa
This is by far the best food we ate while in Napa! The food is thoughtfully prepared, complimented by incredible craft cocktails. The Old Fashioned was the best I ever tasted! Bravo to the whole staff!
Torqued off at TORC
What a disappointment this restaurant turned out to be for us. We saw the great reviews and the menu looked awesome, so we booked it for our anniversary dinner while visiting Napa. We were disappointed from start to finish. Our server took a very
Seasonal menu….tiramisu…not tiramisu
Food was delicious, great music & service. The only thing we would of liked would have been a larger menu selection. Very much organic, seasonal menu. Best tiramisu we’ve ever had, no coffee flavor, pistachios & strawberries.
Beware!
Charged $25 a person when we needed to cancel due to getting into town later than planned . Tried to rebook but they are closed Sunday and Monday, but we were leaving town Tuesday. Just so inflexible and a huge turn off!!
Insulting experience. Not worth the drive or high menu prices
My husband and I drove 1.5 hours to come to Torc for dinner. We are vegetarian and like the seasonal menu. During our last visit, we gifted the chef (Sean) with a wine bottle as appreciation of the food. Yesterday the restaurant was not very busy and

Service is horrible, asked waiter for a bill and he started pouring other costumers drinks and taking photos. Ignored us for 20 minutes then gladly took our bill once another waitress paid for us. Food was mediocre.
Long overdue review on one of my favorites restaurants in
Long overdue review on one of my favorites restaurants in Napa. The ambiance is great and the food is amazingly great. Every time we come here we enjoy our meals. Different menu, different creations. Prices are on the higher side but that's what you
So the inside and the ambiance was great.
Came here for a friends birthday and she did state that she's only came here and had drinks and appetizers. The appetizers were good , the truffle crostini had wayyy to much truffle on it , but my friends liked it. The only thing I liked were the fri
Overrated.
Interior ascetic doesn't fit the menu. The menu descriptions do not accurately depict the meal and we listened to horrible 80s music the whole evening. The $46 grilled cheese is just insulting and why I'm writing this review. Never again.
Delicious food, amazing service by Maria, great wine
Delicious food, amazing service by Maria, great wine pairing! I was there for pre-fixed truffle seasonal menu and was happy they accommodate me with my dietary restrictions. We dined with a 7 year old and he enjoyed his food from kids menu as well.T

AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with TORC Napa. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to TORC Napa at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the TORC Napa page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* MaternalRecord73, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* MaternalRecord73 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to MaternalRecord73 for any questions Peter may have as MaternalRecord73 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* MaternalRecord73 now uses their connections at TORC Napa to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If MaternalRecord73 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, MaternalRecord73 receives the $200 reward which is credited to MaternalRecord73's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at TORC Napa!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
