Ristorante Allegria

We were in Napa and had lunch at Ristorante Allegria.

 
It's in an old bank building in downtown Napa--1026 First Street.

 
Bread and olive oil infused with shallots and other herbs. This was delicious. It was slightly sweet but it had a nice flavor. 

 
Happy Hour Bar Menu is served Mon-Thu 5-6:15 pm and Fri-Sun from noon to 6 pm. Kobe Burger for $8.50 was one of the options. It's a grilled 1/2 lb Waygu Kobe burger with fries & Jack Cheese. I've never understood why chefs use Kobe beef in a hamburger. I think any 80% beef makes a good burger. This was juicy although the raw onions were a little much. The fries were delicious--just the right crispiness.

 
Spaghetti Alla Bolognese--another Happy Hour item for $5.50. This was just okay. The sauce had nice chunks of beef in it but it was a little watery. I also didn't like the shitake mushrooms in it.
