Redd

Address: 6480 Washington St. USA - Yountville, CA 94599
Phone: (707) 9442222
Website: http://www.reddnapavalley.com
Opening hours: Lunch and dinner daily
Menu prices
Cuisine: Contemporary
Remarks: Redd is where the cool city kids eat when in Yountville, that food-obsessed wine country town that just couldn't be more idyllic. Here you'll find none of the barrel and vine décor ubiquitous to Redd's neighbors, who might just raise an eyebrow at the lime green resin chairs that arrest the eye from the modern albeit olive tree-lined patio. Redd, in fact, brings the best of modern design to Napa without going overboard: geometric awnings and a sculptural fountain nod to the outdoors and are anything but rural; inside, gray cushioned Gubi chairs and contemporary whiteware are both minimalistic and serene. Fashionable locals are happy to take their meals at the bar.Chef/owner Richard Reddington is also a maverick in the kitchen, honing his art on signature Asian-inflected dishes such as stir-fried chicken lettuce cups with eggplant and sesame seeds or yellowfin tuna hamachi with apples, avocado, and soy. Main courses flirt with Californian cuisine staples but always pack an edge: a pair of golden scallops canoodles with cauliflower purée, capers, and golden raisins. For dessert, dip into a vanilla bean and quincegranité parfaitwith a shot glass of panko-coated farina fritters.
