Villa Corona

Villa Corona is a family-run taquería in St. Helena founded by Fernando Villasenor and known for grilled fish tacos.

Overview

Visit Napa Valley's Napa Valley Taco Trail lists Villa Corona as a family-run taquería in St. Helena and identifies Fernando Villasenor as its founder. The tourism bureau's recommendation is the tacos de pescado, grilled fish finished with a house sauce.

Context

St. Helena, in the middle of the valley, has a small cluster of taquerías and Mexican markets that serve winery crews alongside tourists. Villa Corona's name echoes Villa Corona, a town in the state of Jalisco, though the sources consulted do not say whether the family comes from there. Guides such as Visit Napa Valley's taco trail and Wine Spectator's taco tour have pointed wine-country visitors toward the county's taquerías and trucks, which also serve the people who live and work in the valley. Sources consulted do not give the restaurant's address or founding year.
