After opening its doors less than 2 years ago NAPA Kitchen and Wine, and parent company DJB Hospitality, are proud to announce their expansion with the first franchised location in Q4 of 2024.
The first franchise NAPA Kitchen and Wine location will be located in Ellis Preserve, Pennsylvania with 7500 square feet, a 100-seat patio, and an 80-seat private dining room. This second and franchised location will continue to deliver West Coast-inspired and high-quality chef-driven food along with wines from around the world in a laid-back environment that has made NAPA Kitchen and Wine a Wine Spectator Award of Excellence winner.
“NAPA Kitchen and Wine started as a passion project a few years ago and to be expanding to 2 new locations speaks volumes to the hard work and care delivered by our team every single day,” said CEO and Founder, Dennis Barbaro. “More than our team it’s our returning guests and the support of the community in Richmond who have allowed us to grow so quickly.”
Since opening in early 2022, NAPA Kitchen and Wine has quickly become one of the top destinations in Virginia for an expansive selection of wines from Napa Valley and beyond. On top of an extraordinary selection of wines in a relaxed environment, NAPA Kitchen and Wine has earned top marks for a remarkable seasonality-driven menu of Cali-inspired cuisine including fresh seafood, premier steaks, farm-fresh produce, hand-rolled sushi, and more. Guests also enjoy a self-serve wine station, a wine-tasting bar, and lounge, a self-serve bourbon station, the area’s only Sunday Jazz Brunch, personalized wine tastings, wine pairing dinners, and a wine academy that features fun, interactive, and informative monthly sessions covering a variety of wine-related themes and regions.
NAPA Kitchen and Wine was conceived by local restauranteur Dennis Barbaro and delivers an elevated selection of West Coast-inspired cuisine and wines from around the world in a laid-back environment inspired by the vineyards of Napa Valley, California. NAPA Kitchen and Wine continues to expand and is always looking for qualified franchisees.
