Westwood dining staple Napa Valley Grille is ready for its big comeback, following a temporary remodel that sent the place under the knife late last year. Right on schedule they’ve returned, with a planned re-arrival date of March 30.

The 15 year-old restaurant has been an anchor to the Westwood neighborhood almost since it opened, but with changing demographics (and the simple wear and tear of time) the place was due for a refresh. Some $2 million later and ownership has gotten just that, with lots of stone, copper, and wood getting thrown around. There’s also a private dining room and a new lounge area on the large patio outside.

As for food, it’s much the same. Expect a lot of classic flavors like seasonal pastas, steaks, and other California-centric options, plus a full beer, wine, and cocktail menu. New executive chef Adrian Vela comes by way of Cafe del Rey, and will oversee some small changes to the options there.

Napa Valley Grille reopens on Wednesday, March 30 for lunch and dinner only, but will add brunch shortly thereafter.
