Located at 1364 Lincoln Avenue in the heart
of Calistoga, Boskos brings Italian comfort food to the upper
Napa Valley. With its spectacular setting, simple “Italian
classics”, exciting value-priced wine menu, warm and
friendly service and large servings at reasonable prices, Boskos
sets the standard for casual Italian dining.
As you can imagine, Italian food is only good if it is made
fresh. Our owner/ chef and kitchen manager take pride every
day in using only the freshest ingredients available. Our
fresh home made pasta is made daily in our kitchen, along
with our Napoletana style, thin crisp, yeasty pizza. Which
we bake in our Italian wood fired oven. Although our food
is simple to make, it takes a lot of patience to make it
good.
Boskos is your home away from home, where the locals and tourists
gather. So dress casually, bring your appetite, and we will
see you soon. |

Boskos first opened on the corner across the street from our
present location, in 1983, where we stayed for ten years. Then
we purchased the building where we are today. Our building was
originally built in 1888 from sandstone quarried on the Silverado
Trail; the same stone used on many buildings, wineries, and bridges
around the Valley. In the early 1900’s the building was
used as a grocery store, then divided to 2 spaces as gift shops,
until we remodeled and retrofitted in 1993. The building was
partially burned in the 1905 fire; you can still see charred
wood on the ceiling while seated in the dining room. After the
remodel in 1993, the building received an award for preservation
from the Napa Valley Landmarks, Inc. |
