Napa Valley Burger Company is set inside Sausalito's oldest brick building, a structure on Bridgeway that dates back to 1885. The interior is defined by that original brickwork, creating a straightforward and comfortable space for a meal. While there are televisions on the walls, the music is kept at a level that allows for conversation, making it a reliable spot for both lunch and dinner. The concept is to bring a taste of Napa Valley to the bayside, focusing on gourmet, made-from-scratch comfort food. Burgers are the main event, all made with Certified Angus Beef and served on toasted brioche buns baked fresh each day. The menu includes classics like a Vintage Cheese Burger alongside more inventive options – the Baja Burger comes with bacon and guacamole, while the James Beard Competition Burger blends the beef with mushrooms marinated in pinot noir. Beyond beef, there are turkey, crispy chicken, and veggie burgers built on a base of mushrooms, black beans, and quinoa. The kitchen also turns out San Francisco-style fish and chips and a roasted chicken salad sandwich. Sides are a big part of the meal here, with popular choices like Nacho Waffle Fries, Napa Truffle Fries, and crispy Brussels sprouts. Onion ring baskets come with both ranch and chipotle aioli for dipping. To round it out, a full bar serves a rotating selection of local wines, draft beers, and cocktails. With a dedicated kids' menu, it's a place that works just as well for families as it does for anyone looking for a solid burger and a beer.
