We've lived in nearby Santa Rosa for 10 years and this is the first time we've visited this nice little restaurant. The fault is ours; not the restaurant's. We had a delightful breakfast, pancakes with a side of bacon for me; an omelet for wife. BIG servings! Delicious. My pancakes were plate-sized. Wife said her omelet was delicious but next time she'd order the one-egg version. The oven fried potatoes were enough for two meals. (I took what she couldn't eat for tomorrow's breakfast.) The only downside was a bill for $48, for the two dishes a coffee and an espresso. Kinda pricy..

Best lunch specials! I don't work at the hospital but I'm at the Garden Court Cafe >every week day< for lunch. The team is friendly and so helpful, too. A lot of the veggies for the salad bar and in meals is grown at the little farm behind the hospital. It's like getting a home cooked meal, and the specials are only $5. The specials are a wide variety of flavors, too. :-). There are often fresh baked muffins and mini loaves available too!

Never been inside, only outside next to parking. Friendly and prompt service. Lots of Menu selections for everyone, if there not to picky.

We came here instead of getting our free breakfast at Olea, and we were so glad we did. I got the veggie hash and oh my gosh. It was so hot and fresh and tasty. I got it without cheese, and it didn't need it. My husband got the eggs Benedict with ham and mushrooms and Swiss and was in love with it. Of all the food we ate in San Francisco and wine country, this was our favorite single meal.

I haven't been back to the Garden Court since the building remodel in March 2020. The old building definitely had some character with it's squeaky floors but the food was questionable. The new owner has brought the food to a high level. I arrived 30 minutes before they closed so I wasn't expecting much. The interior is spacious and clean. I had the veggie omelette with freshly made breakfast potatoes and homemade whole wheat toast. The original owners who start in Kenwood would make fresh bread and baked goods so that was great to see the fresh bread is back. The customer service was excellent. I'm going back and won't wait 2 years. I highly recommend the Garden Court.

If you love Eggs Benedict, you'll love the Garden Court Cafe. Nice little gift shop is a pleasant addition. Enjoyed the water dipping crows.

Stopped here for breakfast/lunch at the end of our vacation. 4 of us had variations of the eggs benedict and I highly recommend the Valley of the Moon option--unusual and delicious. Be aware: If you order the one egg option of a benedict you also get it on 1/2 of an English muffin. Better to order the regular 2 egg version and just ignore the second egg you really don't want it. One of our party had a hamburger and really enjoyed it as well. A great little place!

The breakfasts we had were fabulous! This is always a breakfast stop on our trips to Sonoma. The new remodel is beautiful and about doubled the seating that was there pre-pandemic. Our group loved the classic eggs Benedict, French toast, and veggie hash. You will not be disappointed with this breakfast and lunch spot!
Great breakfast spot with great coffee, French Toast, pancakes and omlettes. Service was excellent. Nice atmosphere win indoor and outdoor options

Service was really slow so come prepared for that - perhaps it’s due to all restaurants having difficulty hiring but it was yummy and such an amazing and relaxing environment !

Breakfast was very good, six of us and everyone liked their dish. Only drawback was they were not busy and service was pretty slow. Staff was nice. Would come back and do recommend it.

Absolutely love this place! Great food, super friendly service. I've had the smoked salmon eggs benedict a few times and can't wait go back for it again whenever I get the chance. The pancakes are delicious, too. Every dish I've seen come out of the kitchen looks amazing, and I'd like to try them all! There's usually a line outside on Saturdays and Sundays, but it's well worth the wait. The restaurant was closed for about a year, and the building is completely remodeled. The food is every bit as good as I remember it from before, only now the space is even better!

No longer catered to locals. Menu has been stripped of favorites like The Valley Of The Moon Benedict and can no longer mix & match Benedict’s. Waitress states “it’s too much work for the chef”. What is still on the menu is quality. It will be a great place for tourist who never knew the old great cafe.
