“Service was exceptional! Craft cocktails were very good. I had the gnocchi with duck breast and it was very good. Wife’s fish was dry and had a slight fishy taste/smell. Perfect weather to sit on the porch with a nice view. Sommelier was great and paired our meals well.“

“We had a great prix fixe meal of 3 courses but the also offer 5 courses. No bad selections except for the cauliflower steak. I don’t think that is worth a steak or shrimp pasta but that is my opinion. Outdoor dining is available and they have heaters by the wall of sliding windows that open up totally he outside. Awesome deserts. I had the cookie butter cheesecake. I died and went to heaven.“

“Wonderful experience overall. We went it in for lunch during the holidays; 2 vegetarians, one pescatarian and one everything. All of us were mightily pleased with the food, ambiance and service. The wine selection is phenomenal to supplement any food served.“

“Valette is the kind of restaurant that reminds you why dining out is an experience, not just a meal. The Day Boat Scallops en Croûte is an absolute showstopper—encased in a delicate, golden pastry, it arrives at the table with a dramatic tableside pour of velvety sauce. The result? A perfect balance of buttery richness and ocean-fresh sweetness. Another amazing is the Sashimi Grade Hawaiian Ahi Poke Style. This is not your ordinary poki as it is made with 24 Month Barrel Aged Soy. The level of freshness of the fish truly comes through as the flavors blend perfectly with the crisp avocado. It is a fine line when adding a flash fried avocado to a dish that’s usually served cold. Vallete executes it perfectly! For the main course, the Dry-Aged Duck is a must-try. Crispy skin, succulent meat, and a medley of locally sourced seasonal veggies. Dessert is not an afterthought here. Strongly Suggest even if we do not have room at the end we always order the ItsNotA ‘Snickers Bar’ Deux. Service is impeccable—attentive without being intrusive, and the staff exudes genuine passion for the food and wine they serve. We love the whole team but especially Aaron-Jake-Sean-Isaac are amazing !?!?“

“This is a very special place at it understands to provide a very special atmosphere. Is it cheap? Nope! Is it too expensive? Not really, I think it is almost reasonable for the experience you will have here. It soothes my soul to dine and rest here. No wonder it is Michelin rated. The interior design, the attention to detail and the art compliment the level of service. On a side note, I wish the selection of teas would reflect the aspired level of service. Please don’t make me part of your healthcare and philanthropy- if you are serious, finance it yourself.

Rooms: Very nicely appointed!

Nearby activities: Plenty of wineries, Healdsburg, walking trails etc

Safety: Feels very safe!

Walkability: You can walk around the compound. Too far to walk to town

Food and drinks: Delicious. Some little details might deserve an upgrade ( eg. Only two black teas - and they are in bags). But overall very tasty!

Noteworthy details: Cozy cottages. In the summer you can sit outside. They also have plenty of games to play. I think this is a very kid friendly place. They also have corn hole and other games for them to play.“

“Inventive food and the best bartenders!“

“So good, we came back a few days later!“

“Incredibly fresh raw oysters. The view is amazing. The wait staff is kind & attentive. The manager really cares about his customers. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“We always love River Vine. Also, I just wanted to note, I LOVED the new style of Huevos Rancheros -- before, you used an almost salsa like sauce, this new sauce is FANTASTIC. Please don't make any further changes, you have improved your Huevos Rancheros to perfection.“

“The cook and the drummer is an amazing, extremely professional, well organized and resourceful catering company. They catered a 100+ event, connected me with local vendors such as florist and musicians; they know how to adjust to budget constraints at the same time they have a vision to make your event as impactful and amazing as you want it to be. Also their staff is very well trained. I highly recommend working with them. Our family celebration ended up exceeding our expectations. And the food was delicious!“

“Enjoyed everything. Staff especially John!“

“Good food. Friendly service. I really enjoy going here.“

“Wandered in off the street with zero expectations. Fantastic. Absolutely fantastic. The food is heavenly, the atmosphere is relaxed and rustic and the staff were kind and helpful and seemed to legitimately enjoy their customers.

I got the Country Ham Bennedict and it is easily in my top 5 of all time (and I love, love, love bennedicts).

They make their own jalapeño hot sauce that is mildly spicy and yet explodes with flavor

The coffee was fantastic, as well. Absolutely worth every penny and a wonderful stop of you are in Sebastapol

Parking: If you come before 10 am plenty of parking, after that the nearby shops open and parking is harder to find“

“Great Sunday Brunch! Outdoor dining was lovely. So glad we found Dawn Ranch. Food was excellent, service prompt and friendly.“

“Super charming resort on the Russian River. Loved the kayaks available to use. Views are great and plenty of places to sit, sip and enjoy. Rooms are updated and clean with very small bathroom in room. Be patient with getting hot water for the shower. It takes a while but is done when it arrives. Restaurant was really good.“

“We hosted our son's Rehearsal Dinner at Hop Monk Sebastopol and it was perfect. The food and atmosphere were great, and the staff went above and beyond to help us celebrate the wedding couple. Lindsay was very cooperative about having me drop off decorations and centerpieces which they set up while we were at the rehearsal. I especially appreciated all of the staff recognizing what an important night it was and doing everything in their power to make it special. I would happily host another event there.“

“Very much enjoyed my time at the casino bar and Grill. The bartenders were very kind and Fantabulous at their job. The tamale pie was awesome. Love that it was a place where locals go. I felt like I was back in time when the days were Grandioso.“

“Mellow and relaxing place. Visited there when I was on vacation, one of my favorite places“

“Everyone's food was delicious and the service was excellent. We had the deviled egg and goat cheese croquette appetizers. We all enjoyed our entrees of steak frites, burger and pasta but we all thought the crispy chicken was the best. But again all were delicious.“

“Wednesday is fried chicken night. Due to a mis-print on the menu we were upgraded to the crab cake. It was EXCELLENT.

The beet salad was the star of the night. Fresh, large portion, killer flavors.

Service here was the best. Quick and attentive.

I had there version of an old fashion and it was nice. The spicy margarita was bomb.

The fried chicken was good, not great. A little over cooked.“
