PRESS was born in 2005 as a restaurant whose ethos is exemplifying the food, wine, and people of the Napa Valley. PRESS is a place for locals, winemakers, vintners, and guests from around the world to experience the best the Napa Valley has to offer — it's this sense of community that is at the heart of everything PRESS does.

Under the leadership of Samantha Rudd and Chef Philip Tessier, PRESS features legendary Bay Area purveyors alongside innovative new culinary talents to highlight Napa Valley cuisine. The PRESS Culinary Team draws inspiration from around the globe while staying rooted in the style and ingredients that make the Napa Valley so special.
