I was a bit skeptical. Local casinos are rarely bastions of culinary excellence. But... what a gem! Service is fantastic, friendly and attentive. Had the smash burger and truffle popcorn at happy hour and would happily pay full price. I've been on a mission to find my "go to" burger and while Gott's is good, Milestone is better but neither have the setting and service the Lincoln provides. Ambience, decor, and vibe are all top notch. Hats off to the proprietors and crew!
Pretty sure I just found my new favorite neighborhood hang,Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Patrick B.San Diego, CA010Jul 4, 2024
Can't say enough about this establishment. The whole staff was absolutely incredible and accommodating our entire dinner. Jesse, the manager ensured an excellent experience, checking in throughout the night. Food, drinks, and desert were all fantastic and exceeded all expectations. If ever in the area I would reccomend this place to anyone looking for a fantastic dinner and a great customer service experience.
P.S. The popcorn is not to missHelpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 2 - Sydni C.Emeryville, CA10004329Aug 3, 2024
I was really excited to try this place. But I won't be returning. I walked in, sat at the bar, and received a half-hearted "hey" from the bartender. A few minutes go by... no offer of a drink or a menu. Then, a man walks up next to me, and another bartender (#2) immediately greets him and offers him a menu. Bartender #2 then says, "Have you been helped?" I smiled and said, "no". Bartender #1 says, "I was just about to get to her." After reviewing the happy hour menu (which is awesome) I ordered truffle popcorn and a burger with steak fries. Bartender #1 suggested I cut the burger in half, so I agreed.
It wasn't very busy at the bar. A couple was sitting on the other side. They were greeted immediately. A few minutes later, they ordered a burger with tater tots. More on that in a minute...
Soon after that, here comes my popcorn. It's delicious! But literally, HALF of the basket was unpopped kernels swimming in oil. Bartender #2 asked me if I liked it. I showed him the basket of kernels, and he didn't say a word... just shrugged his shoulders and walked away.
Next, here comes a burger and steak fries out of the kitchen. And... you guessed it, it gets handed straight to the couple, who ordered at least 5 minutes after I did and were supposed to have tater tots. They looked at each other, looked over at me, looked at each other, and took the tray. No diss to them... it seemed like they just wanted to eat.
I then asked about my burger and was told, "It's coming out now," a few minutes later, Bartender #1 handed me a burger with tater tots. I said, "I ordered mine with steak fries. I think you gave my burger to that couple." He looks embarrassed and says, "the kitchen screwed up... we'll make you a new one."
When I finally got it, the couple was pretty much done with their meal.
No offer was made to compensate for the basket of popcorn kernels or the burger mishap. I finished my meal, and went on my way.
I would have loved to return here with my husband to enjoy a good meal in a fun space where you can sit indoors or outside. This could have become one of our "regular" spots. The burger was delicious, and I loved the option of tater tots. But the service was terrible. I wasn't welcomed. The staff was dismissive. And the simplest order went utterly wrong. As such, they lost two customers, us referring our friends to come and our regular future visits. It's really a shame.... I'm on to the next spot to try.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 2 - Jul 28, 2024
Food was very mediocre to be truthful.
We ordered Ceasars Salads, salmon lollipops, and Tatchos, which were tatar tots. The Ceasars salad was wilted with what taste like store bought salad dressing. The salmon lollipops were actually good but not for the price. You may as well order a whole piece of salmon for $23.00 bucks.
That tatar tots were shameful period.
The service was outstanding. Our server Jack was phenomenal and very accommodating. The ambiance and cleanliness are absolutely amazing. There is no reason at all why this place should have mediocre food, being that it's in Napa litter ally in the food Mecca. It should be farm to table. We were very disappointed. They screwed up on our salads, tatar totsvhad bacon and creama both times they were served to us even though we are pescatarians and ask nicely for No meat and no crema. Which know has me sick as I write this.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Tamiko D.Sacramento, CA813227Jul 26, 2024
So great reviews for this place apply to dinner and happy hour only beware!
Let me start off by saying we came here after the rosè 5k race started at 8am we did not eat before the race so we are very hungry when we arrive. Cute set up lovely view of the water behind the restaurant probably great to sit on the deck in good weather.
So first things first let's get what was good out of the way. I ordered the Huevos Divorciados with over medium eggs. My order was absolutely correct and delicious. My eldest sister ordered bagel and lox plate with no capers or cucumbers with extra onions which came exactly how she order and was good she enjoyed it. For drinks, I ordered a Lincoln Bloody Mary I'm a Bloody Mary lover and this was delicious. My second eldest ordered a Prom King which was absolutely delicious my eldest sister replaced her drink with it.
Okay for the bad. My younger sister ordered the breakfast sandwich with scrambled eggs and Swiss cheese (comes with cheddar). My second eldest orders fried chicken and waffles (it comes with a jalapeno waffle).
My younger sisters sandwich came out with a flat egg and American cheese. So we started looking for our waitress who was no where to be found. I had finished half of my meal by the time we waved down the bus boy delivering food to another table. My older sister was looking forward to the jalapeño waffle but it came out with a plain waffle. She was too hungry to wait so she ate it so we can't even review if the jalapeño waffle would have been good.
So the bus boy takes my sister's plate. A couple minutes later the chef comes out with our waitress (who says nothing about the mistakes in the order). The chef apologizes and gives my sister her correct sandwich but we have a reservation at a winery it's too late now. Chef says he didn't get any of the notes on the order in the back (implying the waitress put the order in wrong) the waitress never says anything while he is talking. While I appreciate him coming to speak to us all he gave were excuses the I apologize for the incorrect order was all he needed to say. We asked for the bill.
The took off my sisters sandwich and the chicken and waffle meal. The manager came out to speak with us asked if there was anything he could do. Which I respect him for if it was a rating on him alone 5 stars. But like I said we were leaving for a reservation at a winery. The waitress never stopped by to check on us or apologize her service was terrible. I would honestly love to try this place again during happy hour or dinner since the service sounds to be better. Should have read the reviews on brunch before showing up.
So my advice and take-away is don't go for brunch since apparently the waitress doesn't care to give minimal effort.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1 - 40334672Aug 26, 20241 check-in
Originally, I had reservations for Napa General Store. Unbeknownst to me and a few other visitors, they closed on August 12. My friend and I had to quickly pivot and search for a brunch spot what could seat us due to this unfortunate error. Queue The Lincoln - they sat us immediately and we dined outside by the river. We enjoyed cocktails and fantastic food, talking the whole time about how we couldn't wait to come back and try other items on their menu. I would absolutely order the fried chicken and waffle every time as well as my prickly pear cocktail. Both were our highlights for flavor!

We wanted to try a new place to eat so we stopped by here. Went inside and was greeted right away and was seated right away as well. The place is pretty big inside and outside. It was a nice day so we sat outside. Our waiter was very attentive and nice. We ordered a drink first and they came out pretty quick. They have a good cocktail menu and prices are reasonable for the area. I ordered the hash mac cheese and my friend ordered the burger with tots. The Mac n cheese part was good but the hash and sour cream on top was not that tasteful. The hash was a little greasy. The burger was cooked perfect and flavorful. If you're looking for a good place to sit outside and enjoy the weather with some pretty good food and drinks, try this place out.

Came in to check out their happy hour. It was summer weekday and only a few other patrons so we chose a table on the deck. What a great place! Was super quiet but I imagine it having a rad vibe when busier on a weekend. Got the carne asada totchos and they were tasty. I was determined to try the elote after seeing it on the photos here, and while it had good flavor, it was hard to eat, and so so messy. It was one ear or corn cut up into quarters and just seemed minimal. Again, good flavor but seemed like more of a hassle to eat than it was worth. I'd love to come back when we are in town and try their dinner menu.
I did end of only having one drink here as we were stuffed already and had a little wine elsewhere. The Blossoms in the Wind is what I chose and it was deeeeeelish. Icing on the cake was the crushed ice. Total game changer. I asked if they make all their drinks this way and they said just this one. Yum. Dried lime garnish was a nice touch too.
One of the reasons why we came here aside from happy hour offerings was the fact that they have a nice outdoor area with games to enjoy. My husband and I got in a few heated games of ping pong and Connect 4. I would actually definitely bring my kids back here with us, as there was an adorable little family enjoying the patio as well and the kids were plenty entertained.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - 36252685Jun 26, 2024
Needed a place to go that was dog friendly in the evening. Found this place. It's kind of hidden because it's not on a main road, but it's next to walmart. There's a lot of parking. When I arrived I wasn't sure where to go. It's not obvious where to enter for the back patio with the dogs. I went inside to ask and was told that I could enter with them through the restaurant. This place is connected to a casino. The back patio has artificial grass that has giant jenga and connect four. it also has a few cabana areas with a fire pit. I came in the evening and there were a lot of mosquitoes. Otherwise I would have stayed longer.
The only food I ordered was sweet potato fries. They were crispy and the portion was good. I was surprised. I ordered a mocktail that tasted like pina colada. I was shocked it had popping boba in it. I thought it was so random. My husband wanted to order a tequila cocktail but they were out of the ingredients. The staff is very dog friendly. I do wish they brought out the water bowl for my doggies as promised though!Helpful 2Thanks 1Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jun 15, 20241 check-in
Being from Illinois we thought it wise to pop into this namesake joint, and we were rewarded!
Totchos will forever be in my heart...cheesy, creamy, crispy bacony goodness... my bride and I give it 4 thumbs up!
Mac & Hash was ok, but the potato came off a bit greasy and not enough crisp edges. We actually ate it with the tachos and loved the combo!
French onion dip was not what we expected... normally a sour cream based cool creamy dip, instead we got a pot of caramelized onions and toast. The onions were stringy and I just wouldn't order it again.
Ambiance is modern craftsman, servers were friendly and attentive, and happy hour prices are insane! Loved this place, we will definitely be back... this joint makes the list!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - May 21, 2024Seated via Yelp Reservations
We were in Napa for the weekend, for our last dinner before heading back home, we wanted a fun place with great food and boy did we find it.
The Lincoln was awesome. We originally thought we were heading to the downtown Napa area with all the restaurants but this was in a stand alone area. There was a huge parking lot in front and a bit off the beaten track.
Once we entered, we were greeted immediately and decided to sit outside next to the river. It felt like we were in the middle of nowhere...lots of greenery and the peaceful river flowing by. We noticed there were some seating off to the side - private cabanas each with a firepit for bigger groups. As we walked further in, there was a whole outdoor game area! What a nice surprise. There was a ping pong table, corn hole, big jenga, big connect four to name a few options. This was a perfect place to keep your kids occupied & drunk adults entertained.
I notice that the Lincoln is opened until 2am so they must have a lively ambiance at night. The outdoor space was stacked with heat lamps at every table, fire pits and string lights all around. I LOVED it.
Best of all, the service and food was spot on. The food was excellent. Every single thing we tried was delicious. We had the smashed burger, tater tots, short rib tacos, & lemon pepper wings. All fantastic but I especially loved the lemon pepper wing - even the leftovers I had back at the hotel was delicious.
A good sign of a successful restaurant is not just good service/food but the management. I saw the manager proactively helping his teams tables, greeting all the customers and was totally present the entire time I was there. For all locals and tourists in Napa, with or without kids, this is a win win situation. The space is big enough for a big party or event. 5 stars all the way!Helpful 3Thanks 1Love this 3Oh no 0
