Reviews for TRUSS Restaurant & Bar in Calistoga, CA
Beautiful property with handsome vista's surrounding the property. Upscale features in architecture, service, bathrooms, with... trendy features. Pricey cocktail menu, amazing "smokey" presentation of the devil went down to Georgia cocktail. Surprisinglyinexpensive entrees... Best to buy all of the menu items and share it "family style" to get a blend of "tasters menu" effect. Read more
One the best overall dining experiences despite the post covid climate really lowering the bar for the industry. The Truss staff... not only were attentive and considerate, but also provided excellent reccomendations and direction on their offerings for bothfood and beverage. As a seasoned professional working in the design of both hospitality and entertainment industries thisrestaurant stood out. This is a beautifully designed and curated space filled with great people. Our sincerest compliments tothe kitchen and bar staff. If you visit here you have to try the salmon, it is a testament to the commitment to culinary qualityand to excellence of this establishment, flavourful and exquisite in texture it leaves nothing to be desired. Doesn't hurt thatthey make a mean espresso too. Read more

My husband and I held two private events over our wedding weekend at Truss Restaurant & Bar and our experience was truly... exceptional. Justin and Janine made beautiful recommendations on space (we held one intimate event in the Cork Room) and then amore casual event on the patio of Truss! The food was beautifully presented and unbelievably delicious! On both evenings, wehung out until the restaurant closed wrapped around the fire pit, wanting the night not to end! Jeff was also a stand out froma service perspective - just amazing and super knowledgeable. Thank you Truss team! We will definitely be back again andagain! Read more
The food and service at Truss are truly exceptional, especially in the post-covid climate of short-staffed restaurants. I have... dined at Truss three times and each visit exceeded expectations and kept me coming back for more. The wine list is obviouslyfantastic, but the cocktails are really special, the best I have had since moving to wine country from Nashville. The menu has agreat variety of items perfect for a fancy date night or casual pizza at the bar. I have tried all three pizzas and they wereall amazing! I have actually sampled ~60% of the menu and each item has been wonderful. Justin and his team always providephenomenal service with attention to detail and the perfect balance of friendly conversation. Truss is a true gem and not to bemissed whether you are local or visiting wine country. Read more
Best lunch ever! This was the best experience in my life, everything was so perfect like a fairytale. The service, cleaning,... organization, decorations and the last but not the least ?the food taste? you can taste every single flavor separately in onetablespoon. In my next visit I won?t doubt to eat again in this delicious restaurant!!! Read more
We came here for a birthday lunch. The service was really and truly awesome. All the food tasted wonderful but the Trout was... undoubtedly my favorite thing there. The Poached Pear Sorbet was also super good, the chocolate bar however (for me and mygirlfriend) was very rich. We did finish it but towards the end of it, it became a little difficult. Everyone seemed to enjoythemselves and the look of the place and the views themselves are also very easy on the eyes and great to look at. Overallreally enjoyed the experience here and I hope that next time I come the experience is just as great. My only thing is that, Iwish the portions were a little bigger when we did get home, we all ate food that was in the fridge or got something on the wayback. The restaurant did leave me satisfied with the food and experience but not full. Read more
NOV 22 was in Calistoga for a lil getaway and Truss seemed like the spot for an early evening dinner. It?s located in the new... Four Seasons Resort which is an amazing property. Valet parking was excellent and necessary as the restaurant is high above theproperty. We were seated on time 7:30om near a window and promptly greeted within the ?Living Room? which essentially was afancy hotel dining room-glass walls to the west and a small bar on the south. The kitchen, visible behind large glass panels,was bustling even though only six tables were occupied. The same kitchen serves room services and there was an event downstairswe were told. We ordered oysters, sparkling wine and sourdough to start. Food was well presented and tasty. Oysters especiallyso. Condiments arrived in tiny manufacture bottles upon a plate much like room service-sort of gave the presentation a cheapfeel but worked nonetheless. After filling our bellies with oysters and bread we turned to a smash burger with craft madepickles American cheese and onions. I would?ve preferred an In n Out burger honestly. The truffles fries were super salty and ifyou like truffle potatoes-try Torres Black Truffle potato chips-better and a lot less $. The rest of the menu included a fewsalads, a few pizza and a few dinner items-fish, chicken Wagyu AU Beef. Overall the menu was limited. A crowd of folks arrivedduring dinner-a group of about 15 people and the room became very noisy. Difficult to hear a table conversation. Staff wereattentive altho as it got busier attention to service declined and we had to request a couple condiments twice. The hostesshelped keep our water glasses topped off. Restrooms were outside near the picturisque and quite lovely roof top area. With somany delicious dining experiences nearby we were overall meh on our dining experience at Truss. Pricing wasn?t god awful but Iwas distracted by the Four Season property name only to receive 3 star selection and taste. Read more
