Restaurant Review LinksListed below are links to reviews of Ubuntu from around the web.
"In short, I found the food to be quite impressive, especially given this restaurant’s newness. Better yet, it was very reasonably priced. I will be back for sure...."
"The menu will lean heavily on the restaurant's own biodynamic gardens, featuring lots of fruits and veggies. Flexitarians and carnivores take note, however: Ubuntu is hardly a wheat-grass shack and will offer up meat and dairy...."
"ritics recently squelched any lingering snickers, comparing Fox's dishes to those of the nearby French Laundry and gushing over his..."
"Every dish delved into the essence of the ingredient(s), tugged and pulled with tastes and textures, without the tricks of meat mimicry...."
"The Foxes make good food that just happens to be vegetarian — some of it even vegan. All us newbies to this cuisine commented that night (as we surfed family style from dish to dish), that the food is so wonderful and full of intense flavors you easily fo..."
"Cauliflower in a cast iron pot ($14) roast-puree-raw, our vadouvan, CILANTRO sprouts, brown butter toast was well done and beautiful. Very creamy with slight spicey curry hint...."
"Service in the airy, modern dining room was just as you would expect. The staff was friendly and perfectly professional. They gave us great guidance about how much to order and what plates would go well together, and handled Sarina's nut allergy with reas..."
"This dish (that word!) was a casual layering of un-cased, sauteed Merguez sausage, some tomatoey/garlicky "cowboy caviar" made from homegrown eggplant, gently parboiled potato slices, and a topping of yogurt with a dash of allspice...."
"Snappy and crackly as snack food, with amazing flavor. I still haven't decided if the kitchen sneaked a little truffle oil in there. Or, no, wait, maybe the flavor was more like vanilla. Maple!..."
"As for its audience, Fox says the majority of customers are meat eaters. Going in, some skeptics tell him, they were glad to spot a steak house next to Ubuntu, just in case. ..."
"I am a HUGE fan of old fashioned American style cinnamon rolls. I love to eat them and love to make them...."
"It’s also proof that you can do away with all flesh and hold onto hedonism, at least if you keep enough butter, cream, cheese and wine at hand. Ubuntu is where virtue meets naughty sensuality. It’s the Angelina Jolie of restaurants...."
"There were many things that inspired me during my recent lunch at Ubuntu, the vegetables-only restaurant in Napa. One of them was its simple Today's Leaves and Things green salad that came out looking so beautiful and tasted so refreshing with its light d..."
"This is the braised sunchokes, which again came out beautifully plated. But there was a tartness to the sunchokes that I didn’t enjoy, so this was the least popular dish of the night...."
"The pizza was a perfect Neapolitan-style thin crust pizza and the ricotta cheese was amazing. With the egg, this was the perfect breakfast pizza and was one of my favorite dishes of the day...."
"Oh well, these pomegranate cakes turned out to be a nice side for some slow-cooked BBQ pork ribs I made, but I bet it’ll also be fun for brunch or on top of a salad. Enjoy!..."
"The Medjool Date Cake was the last thing that I ate there, a perfect cube of moist cake, with candied quince… and earl grey ice cream… and caramelized apples (I think)… and matchsticks of apple…and candied lemon. The earl grey ice cream was such a delight..."
"Service at ubuntu was a highlight. One doesn’t normally expect such detailed knowledge and professionalism in the front of the house at such a casual restaurant. It’s friendly, laid-back, but extremely focused...."
"The Artichoke Salad that Karen and I ordered seemed more appealing, but the app's flavorless and mushy main ingredient had us plopping down our forks as well...."
