A locally owned treasure, Napa River Grill has won several Best of Louisville awards, and it's easy to see why. The food, with its Northern California influence, is delicious and presented with care. The beef tenderloin is as tender and juicy as one could ask for, and the extensive wine list makes pairing the perfect wine with the perfect dish easy. Private rooms and alfresco dining are available. The trendy yet elegant decor and professional service will make the experience feel a lot more like fine dining than casual upscale.
