What a night ✨ @napavalleystreamfest absolutely delivered—bringing electric energy to @rotationnapa and turning the evening into something truly unforgettable with @visitnapavalley . From the incredible talent that lit up the night, to the unforgettable flavors from @nyeshajoyce , every moment was a vibe. The cocktails were flowing thanks to @ciroc & @johnniewalker , and the room was filled with nothing but great people, great music, and even better energy. Old and new friends raised a glass… @tylermeasom , @itsreallycr , @maksimc , @razzvio , @strongbrenda , @jfbnyla , @nyeshajoyce , @cecilia._navarro , @luke.tennie , @realadamrose , @nancywilson , and many MANY more… These are the kinds of nights that remind you why community, creativity, and culture matter so much. We’re building something special together—and if this is any indication, the future is looking very bright. 🌟 #visitnapavalley #napa #experience #napavalleystreamfest #downtownnapa 📸: @aperture.media

Feeling incredibly grateful to be recognized by Modern Luxury as one of the best new restaurants in the Bay Area right now 🙏 Chef Nyesha Arrington is officially serving up a feast at Rotation—every dish is an experience, bold, vibrant, and unforgettable. Reservations are highly suggested, but if you’re more of a spontaneous type, our patio is open, the sun is shining, and we’ve saved a seat for you. Come through for a full bar, great energy, and those good vibes we live for. 🍸✨ #visitnapavalley #restaurant #rotationnapa #napa #experience

From weekend bellinis and brunch, to golden hour pours, patio breezes, and the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to stay for one more round. ✨🍸 A place to slow down, settle in, and let the evening unfold — whether it’s a crisp cocktail, a glass of wine, or simply good company under the open sky. Kick back, relax, and soak in the vibes with us on the patio. Cheers to sunny mornings and easy evenings leading to unforgettable moments. 🥂 #visitnapavalley #brunch #weekend #patio #saturday

…and just like that, we’re off and running. This powerhouse human is the real deal—equal parts precision, passion, and fearless leadership. Chef @leeannewong brings an energy to the kitchen that you can feel the moment you walk in, and it shows up in every dish, every detail, every service. Working side-by-side with our Executive Chef, @jeffmosher , the teamwork and leadership is legit. May at Rotation is not one to sleep on. This is bold, vibrant, deeply personal cooking—layered with experience, culture, and serious intent. Mama Wong is in the house, and she’s setting the tone. If you haven’t locked in your reservation yet, now’s the time. Come hungry, come curious, and come ready for something special. Book on @opentable - we’ll see you at @oxbowpublicmarket . #visitnapavalley #experience #chef #rotationnapa #napa

April, you were magic. ✨ Closing out the month with @nyeshajoyce felt like the perfect crescendo—an unforgettable night filled with bold flavors, electric energy, and a room full of people who just get it. Presented by @visitnapavalley , what we’ve created together at Rotation isn’t just dining… it’s connection, community, and a shared love for the experience. From familiar faces who’ve been riding with us, to new friends who found their way to our table—thank you for showing up, for leaning in, and for making this so much bigger than us. Chef Nyesha, you are a beam of light that brightens everything and everyone around you. Thank you for all you brought to these walls - inspiration, creativity, care, precision, excellence, passion, and so much more. And just like that, we turn the page… May is here, and @leeannewong is stepping into the kitchen 🔥 We’re ready for a whole new rhythm, new stories, and a fresh wave of unforgettable nights. The table is set. Let’s keep the FEAST going. #visitnapavalley #napa #experience #chef #napavalley

Katie Hamilton Shaffer is a Napa local who saw a gap in the valley and filled it in the boldest way possible. 🙌 She created @rotationnapa — a chef residency at Oxbow Public Market where a new world-class chef takes over the kitchen every single month. New menu. New story. New experience. All built on Napa Valley’s incredible seasonal ingredients. Last night they passed the plate from @nyeshajoyce to @leeannewong who will carry the torch into May. This is exactly what Napa needed right now. Something alive. Something that keeps locals coming back and gives visitors a reason to return. Napa’s food scene just leveled up. 🍽️🔥 👉🏻 Follow @napadad for more Napa Valley hot spots! ⭐️ #napavalley #restaurants #donapa #visitnapavalley
