Welcome to Auro
Auro brings Michelin-starred dining to Calistoga. Our team transforms hyper‑seasonal Napa Valley ingredients into seven courses of contemporary American cuisine, refined through French technique and influenced by Mexican and Japanese traditions.
Dine in our intimate room overlooking the vineyards and mountains, or immerse yourself at the Chef’s Table inside the kitchen. Sommelier Derek Stevenson’s 750‑label wine program—awarded Wine Spectator’s Best of Award of Excellence since 2023—showcases Napa icons and rare discoveries. Experience what happens when Napa Valley’s bounty meets Four Seasons hospitality.
One Michelin Star
In October 2022, we proudly opened our doors, and after just eight glorious months, Auro earned its first MICHELIN Star in 2023! We are thrilled to share that this momentum has continued into 2025, with Auro securing a MICHELIN Star for the third consecutive year.
This restaurant exists for a single reason: to give you an evening worth remembering.
Every meal is a dialogue between kitchen and cellar, dining room and guest, revealed course by course and glass by glass. We are guided by the pursuit of curiosity, an obsession with craft, and the art of service.
We are grateful to cook for you, to host you, and to share this table.

Learn MoreSommelier Derek Stevenson James Beard Award Nominee
We are honored to announce that Sommelier Derek Stevenson has been named a semifinalist for the prestigious James Beard Foundation Award for Outstanding Professional in Beverage Service.
The James Beard Awards—often called the “Oscars of the food world”—celebrate excellence in culinary arts, hospitality, media, and the broader food industry. Derek Stevenson’s nomination recognizes his commitment to craft, his deep respect for Napa Valley’s terroir, and his pursuit of elevating the wine experience for every guest.
"When curating our wine program, I start with the people behind the bottle. Napa comes first, but championing POC and women winemakers has always been a priority. Storytelling is at the heart of being a sommelier, and I’m drawn to the stories told less often. The diversity of American food and wine culture inspires me daily, it’s the artistry that fuels my passion."

Auro Welcomes a New Chef for Its Reopening
Following the departure of Executive Chef Rogelio Garcia, Chef Adam Stacy joins from Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco to lead the kitchen as we take a considered approach to identifying the right long-term chef. This collaboration across Four Seasons properties allows us to maintain continuity and uphold the standard our guests expect.
Chef Stacy joins a highly experienced and committed team already in place: a culinary team, many of whom have been with Auro since opening, Lead Sommelier Derek Stevenson, a James Beard Award semifinalist, Executive Pastry Chef Celine Plano, and a front-of-house team deeply dedicated to the art of service.
The Auro experience has always been a collaboration, and that foundation remains unchanged.
