Barndiva has been a favorite for years! The food is consistently amazing and the servers are always friendly and helpful in sharing tips on new and exciting additions to the menu. There is no better way to spend a nice afternoon than sitting out in their gorgeous outdoor space, enjoying a glass of wine and a nice meal. If you've never been to Barndiva, I hope you go soon. You deserve it!

We had a team dinner for 6 with a nut allergy and a vegetarian. The service and care around those was outstanding. Truly beautiful and unique space, elegant and fun decor. Excellent cocktails.
Heath
Everything was super.. staff, service, food and location I had the most amazing winter salad and goat cheese croquettes along with the homemade pasta and chanterelles ... only comment was about the pasta that could have done w/o the pine nuts in an otherwise creative and delicious dish. Get a reservation and go asap🥂
Janie
Loved the atmosphere, the meal, the cocktail and our waitress. It would have been nice to have some good draft beer choices but it was really enjoyable.
Julia
My husband had the Tika Masala and I had the beet salad, and we both had the leek soup. The food was outstanding! I had requested a quiet table when we made our booking and were pleasantly surprised that the manager had recorded our request and showed us to a quiet corner. We love the old silent B&W movies that are projected on the curtains next to the bar. We were frequent diners at the old venue and miss the hanging metal sculptures that threw their shadows on the walls. Can you bring them back?

Wonderful meal with flavorful and inventive food. Excellent service throughout. Stylish and energetic environment.

Barndiva was the perfect place for our welcome party. Honestly, it could have been a wedding on its own.
The Studio Garden was absolutely stunning — lush greenery, soft string lights, and that quintessential Barndiva magic. It created such a warm, inviting atmosphere and truly set the tone for the rest of our wedding weekend.
We hosted a two-part event: an intimate dinner for 30 with our wedding party and immediate family, followed by a cocktail-style celebration for around 100 guests. The transition was seamless. The service was incredible, and everything felt effortless on our end.
The food was outstanding — we received so many compliments about how delicious everything was. The bartenders were excellent, knowledgeable, and added fun energy to the night. Guests raved about every part of the experience, including the cocktails. We did a few signature drinks and they all came out so well!
Overall, Barndiva made our welcome party feel magical. It was the perfect kickoff to the weekend, and we couldn’t be more grateful to the entire team.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for a place for a welcome party or wedding.

Not as good as I remembered. The squash soup I had to send back- way too much pepper as did my friend. The fish was ok. Pasta dish was excellent. Wait staff excellent
Dan
Fernando was our server and he was excellent. Knowledgeable, responsive, funny and willing to engage our table in an entertaining back and forth when appropriate. Trout, soup and onion appetizer were all awesome, pasta was good, burger was average. Ambiance and the staff made it. Automatic 20% service fee felt unnecessary, we're good tippers, but ok if that's necessary to have a livable wage for the outstanding staff!
Mike
A very charming and unique interior, bit off the beaten path of restaurants but not far from town square. Unique and delicious food choices.
We had our wedding at Barndiva! Is such a beautiful space. The staff was excellent. We didn’t have to do much except book the place and they made our special day happen and it was more beautiful than we could have ever imagined. The backyard for the ceremony was perfect (pictured). To top it off, the food was excellent. We had many guests tell us it was the best wedding food ever. We had the we had the steak, which was insane, but many of our guests said the salmon was cooked to perfection.

We hosted our rehearsal dinner and welcome drinks at Barndiva, and it was absolutely perfect. We rented out the entire restaurant for our smaller dinner and then opened it up for about 130 guests for a welcome drinks reception — and from start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations.
The food was fantastic (our guests were talking about it all weekend!), the cocktails were perfect, and the service was truly impeccable. The outdoor area, which is already beautiful, was styled with extra touches that made it look somehow even more magical.
A huge thank-you to Susan, who guided us through the entire process with so much warmth, patience, and professionalism. She made everything easy and stress-free, which was such a gift during a hectic wedding week.
We and all of our guests were beyond impressed. I would recommend Barndiva to anyone — whether you’re hosting an event or just looking for an incredible dinner experience in Healdsburg, it’s simply perfect.

Style over substance. Salads were good. Very fresh. Crispy chicken is tasty. Tikka masala should not be on the menu, it's bland, weird naan, chalky rice. Bucatini was fine. Asparagus was okay. Everything plated very nicely but not sold on concept for the price. Nice cocktails and great service.

Something seemed a bit off. Upon arriving we found out that our reservation was in Studio Barndiva not the main restaurant, which was not what I believe we booked. The food was good and the service was excellent. The menu seemed a little chaotic and disorganized. Overall, we had a nice meal, but it didn't live up to the expectations we had based on friends and family who had been there before.
