Small World Restaurant

Southern Italian and heavy on seafood, but there's Neapolitan pizza for the kid who wants plain, and house-made gelato to finish.

Kids are welcome, and the menu includes lobster corn dogs.

Chile verde and fajitas that arrive sizzling.

A big downtown sports saloon with a huge menu and TVs everywhere, for a family dinner on game day.

Napa's riverside pub where kids eat free, every kids meal comes with free ice cream or cotton candy, and the renovated back patio sits right on the Napa River.

Downtown Napa's BBQ-and-wine institution: smoked ribs and brisket in a loud, casual room, with a 400-bottle wine list.
