Food and service were exceptional. Unfortunately we were here a day it rained 6" , so the weather could have been improved. Nevertheless, everything we ordered off the menu was delicious. I ordered the duck confit and was very pleased -- it was outstanding. It's a beautiful restaurant in a stunning setting. Highly recommended for a pleasurable dining experience.

I grew up hearing how magical this place was from my mom and I finally got to experience a little for myself. At least the Forum for Restaurant Week. We didn't even know what the prix fixed menu would be but we took and gamble expecting nothing but the best and it did not disappoint. Everything from the starter to the dessert was delicious and amazing. The ambience was cozy and felt personable. Hope to come back again someday.

Just had breakfast here! I ordered the olive oil pancakes, basic eggs + bacon breakfast, and a Berry Bae pressed juice - I would have to say it was good overall. I wish there was more flavor in the eggs and bacon breakfast place with a bigger side of potatoes, but that is my preference. The pancakes and juice were good and the 'off and away in a forest vibe' is always very nice. The servers were very sweet and checked in quite often - definitely appreciated this!

Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 This restaurant is nestled in a resort property and even though we weren't hotel guests, they accommodated us with such delight. We had their brunch and it was the best we've had, ordering the holiday latkes which were a treat and mains! The mains were a lobster roll, rock cod fish tacos, corned beef hash and chicken & waffles. Everything was made to perfection. The lobster roll was flanked by a gently toasted bun. The fried chicken on the chicken & waffles was tender on the inside and perfectly crisped on the outside. My most favorite though was the fish tacos. Easily the best I've ever had.

This was our first visit to forum. The service was great .carlos our server did a fantastic job explaining the menu and providing some knowledge about the restaurant. We order this amazing fig infused drink that was delicious. For the table we had some Beignets that were accompany with 3 sauces. For lunch I order the chilaquiles with eggs, chorizo and avocado. The chilaquiles are the real authentic dish. I was impressed, because not a lot of restaurants make them authentic. The overall experience was great . I will definitely come back.

Simply wonderful. The Forum is a small intimate restaurant located inside Meadowood. This place gets lost compare to the other open restaurants in the area, and more catered towards hotel guest. Still it's a short five minute drive from the main road up to the Forum. The coffee are not the star here, but their brunch. The English Muffin (from Model Bakery) and their Croissant with butter and fresh jam is a perfect start to the meal. The Pork Belly Risotto was cooked perfectly; something different but I would've love to see the Forum use scallops or lobster. The filet with hash brown and eggs was just the right portion. Steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare, and the thinly shaved potato was fried crispy. The service was very good and plenty of wait staff to tend to your needs. A definite place to try if you're in the area.

Bougie brunch? YES PLEASE! Aesthetic - 10/10 If I could have their interior designer come and decorate my home, I absolutely would! Everything is perfectly light and airy when buried among the trees, you feel like you've escaped from reality. Staff - 10/10 Everyone was incredibly kind, from the attendant in the parking lot to our waiter to the mimosa cart bartender, we loved every minute! Our order: - G3 Live Cold Pressed Juice (10/10) - Delicious, healthy way to get some greens in before the party starts! - Coffee (10/10) - Simple, balanced, a go-to for any brunch setting. - California Omelette (10/10) - Gosh my mouth is watering writing this review! It is filled to the brim with bacon, cheese, and veggies. It is so rare that artichoke comes in an omelette and now I want it always! - Sourdough toast w/ berry jam (a side to the omelette) - I want this jam for the rest of my life! So tasty and crisp I could've eaten every slice and typically I don't eat side toast! - White peach mimosa (10/10) - This sounds like a sugar bomb but they freshly juice grilled peaches and WOWOWOW it was so balanced and delicious! I could've ordered many more but I had to contain myself! Whether you're a Napa Valley local or visiting the area, pop by and treat yourself to a bougie brunch at Forum!
