Solbar at Solage Calistoga

Solage Calistoga reminds me of the Carneros Inn.  Cute accomodations, and a nice feel to the resort. I love that they have cruisers for guests to ride around on. They have two bocce courts towards the front of the resort, but what I heard most about this resort was Solbar. Solbar is the restaurant at Solage.  They are known for the breakfast and lunch, so we stopped in for lunch after 2 tastings. The room is nice and airy, with a great fireplace in the back. Interesting menu.... Tried a salad with pears and red cabbage that was ok but didn't love it. Then my husband and I split the Tuna burger in a soft steamed bun that was delicious. There was a small tofu salad with edamame and radishes on the side that was also really good.  We also split the Po' Boy sandwich with fried shrimp and oysters with an interesting sausage and rice side. I liked what was inside the Po' Boy but it was a little too much bread for me although they did make the bread light and airy just like they do in New Orleans.  The highlight of the meal was a fantastic dessert and something we would rarely ever order but it sounded interesting. Donut holes with coffee anglaise!!!! Light and airy donut holes made to perfection that melted in your mouth with a little sauce on it. Fabulous! The tuna burger with the donut holes are both must haves if you decide to try Solbar.
