SingleThread Farm - Restaurant - Inn

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.

Charming Hallmark town, meals and inn that exceeded expectations (although still had a little room for improvement), and the delight of walking upstairs instead of driving home after a Michelin experience was truly special. The room had amazingly tall ceilings, a Theragun massager, Japanese toilets (yet flimsy small bathrobes, no laundry bag, and high tech light panels that were too bright at night). Also the Study common space was closed during our visit, unfortunately, and they never came to do the evening turn down as expected.The meal was spectacular, from its floral showstopping beginning to the tastes and service throughout. Save room for the amazing and included Japanese breakfast the next morning. What a highlight experience.

amazing food and service

The level of food, service, quality of ingredients, presentation was all incredibly unique. We had a wonderful time and flavors and techniques are superb. Wine pairing was good, some bottles were truly unique, like Chateau d’Yquem Sauternes and Guiborat, Mont Aigu Champagne, but others less worth the price, still good rated wines. Net-net, would go back any day but likely to pick a wine bottle or two directly.

The four of us visited the great restaurant, but unfortunately we can't say anything about anything else. But the restaurant was really excellent. From start to finish we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We really enjoyed all the courses and tasted excellent. The accompanying wine supported each individual dish fantastically.
The restaurant staff were incredibly helpful and always friendly.
We spent a wonderful and very enjoyable evening. Thank you for that.

Absolutely the BEST and my favorite restaurant in continental US and definitely worth a trip! Impeccable service, taste and presentation!

Added photos: another time here visiting Healdsburg just for SingleThread.

We went to the restaurant. The decorations were fantastic and most of the food agreed to our taste. Absolutely love the duck, it's full of different flavors and very juicy. Definitely recommend this over wagyu. You cannot cook wagyu badly but it's hard to make such a delicious duck dish.

However, there are also some disappointments. We were not offered a cake even though we were celebrating a birthday. Considering all the other 3 stars we went to offer it, it is a big disappointment. The price is very expensive compared to other Michelin three stars. Especially considering the amount of food that was offered. I imagine a lot of money went to the fancy decorations.The knife for duck is not sharp enough to cut the duck. It took us quite some effort to cut it. The wait time between dishes is way too long. Sometimes, it's 20 min + wait. It got really boring in the end.

Overall it's a nice restaurant. We enjoyed the food. And had an overall happy experience.

Highly overrated restaurant, hard to believe this was a 3 star Michelin rated place. At a $1k / person we should have all been blown away by the flavors, presentation, and pairing of wines.
The first course was incredible, beautiful presentation and flavors were clean and memorable. It fell way off after that. Textures weren't there, I would go as far to say some things were just meh. I would also like to note that our plates were not placed directly in front of us and they were all a little off. I know this is nit picky, but again at this price point, it's what I would expect. The wine pairing was average at best. The som was off pouring noticeable uneven amounts for the table.
I really couldn't tell you anything about the rest of the courses after the first. The flavors, or lack of, just felt like a huge miss.

Safety: seems to be an extremely safe neighborhood

My wife and I returned to Single Thread Restaurant for my birthday. This is our 2nd visit. We first visited in Feb 2020 for her birthday before everything shutdown.

We've dined at Michelin 3 Star restaurants all over the world and Single Thread indeed deserves their stars and rating as one of the 50 best restaurants in the world.

The service and food were flawless yet again. We loved every single thing about our dining experience. The food was beyond compare.

The menu combines Japanese influences with farm-to-table ingredients from their own local farm and a tour of the farm is available to their diners. We haven't taken the tour yet, but plan to.

Sadly, we no longer drink alcohol. When we visited in 2020 we also had our meal with the wine pairing it every sip was perfectly matched with its course. This time, we did the non-alcoholic beverage pairing and it too was wonderful. It was a lovely series of non alcoholic drinks paired flawlessly with the food. They were a combination of non-alcoholic wine like sips and mocktails. The only downside was one of the pairings, the Verjus, Kombu, and Lemon Verbena was a little sweet for our tastes. It still paired well however with its course.

We will be returning again, likely for my wife's next birthday. We won't be waiting as long to return and nextime we are planning to spend the night in their lovely inn, which we didn't do on our last two visits as we only live 45 minutes away.

Kudos to the Single Thread team for a totally memorable experience, worth every penny in our book!

Situated on a charming corner in a sweet, walkable, village-like town, you will find the gem that is Single Thread. I joined my brother for my birthday dinner here in late October, and despite mild initial concerns regarding service from reading a few reviews, I’m happy to report that the entire dining experience was ✨flawless✨

From the moment we approached the building, the warm welcome in the lobby, to the stunning presentation of the dishes (the first of which was waiting for us upon arrival, and nearly brought me to tears), everything was exceptional. The staff was attentive and funny—but not overbearing, the design and finishes were artistic and upscale, and the attention to my severe gluten allergy was impeccable and without compromise. Having dined at other Michelin-starred restaurants and been impressed, I can say this experience was on another level. I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity. Already planning to return during future seasons to experience the farm’s evolving menu and bring friends who will appreciate the care and creativity poured into Single Thread.

Love the food! Was really the best meal of my life!

The meal started off impressively—definitely a 10/10, but midway through, it dipped to about an 8/10, and unfortunately, dessert left us underwhelmed, ending at a 7/10. The staff was friendly but should slow down when explaining the dishes and work on pronouncing the names correctly. For example, ‘haricot vert’ is not pronounced like ‘Air Cobere’ (see attached video). Additionally, the table had noticeable dents and scratches, which detracted from the overall experience. We spent almost $2K, and to achieve a 5-star experience, the entire meal needs to consistently be a 10/10. I believe the potential is there, and I hope this feedback helps!
