About the Restaurant

Kenzo is the downtown Napa restaurant of Natsuko and Kenzo Tsujimoto, who also own Kenzo Estate winery. Natsuko Tsujimoto designed the calm, minimal 27-seat dining room, and the counter seats look straight into the kitchen.

The menu is seasonal kaiseki and Edomae-style sushi, with fish flown in from Tokyo's Toyosu Market. Courses are paired with sakes and wines from around the world, including the full range of Kenzo Estate wines.

Kenzo held a Michelin star from 2017 until the 2026 guide, when it moved to the recommended list.

Getting There With a Chauffeur

Kenzo makes a natural pair with a visit to Kenzo Estate in the hills east of Napa: taste in the afternoon, then come down to Pearl Street for dinner. With sake and wine pairings at every course, a chauffeur keeps the evening simple.

Typical drive times to Kenzo (without traffic):

  • A few minutes from downtown Napa
  • From Yountville: about 14 minutes (9 miles)
  • From the Sonoma Plaza: about 23 minutes (14 miles)
  • From St. Helena: about 24 minutes (18 miles)
  • From Calistoga: about 34 minutes (27 miles)

Your chauffeur drops you at the door, waits while you dine, and drives everyone home. Gratuity is always included in our prices. Call or text 833-915-2436, or reserve online.
