“What an absolutely darling little place! Situated in a veritable paradise - a blossoming community garden, delicious food and coffee and wonderful service! A must stop when in Sonoma”

“Good is excellent. The employees are awesome. The vibe is great. Just go and check it out for yourself, you won’t be disappointed.”

“Do not pass this place up if you drive through the area! The owner brought us a sample of her salmon chowder while we waited for our food. The chowder is absolutely AMAZING! She shared awesome conversation of how she came about her salmon chowder. Great, family style atmosphere! We can't wait to return!”

“The golf course is beautiful, and dog friendly! We got paired up with some really nice locals, and the workers were extremely nice. We cannot wait to come back!”

“My husband and I (30yo) spent our anniversary weekend here. Our goal was to be close to nature with a nice clean room to sleep in. The room was clean. The outdoor garden / terrace was serene and amazing. Access to kayaking and the forest was a huge plus. Property is kept with the understanding the manor is older and beneath trees so there will be leaves / dust. Staff were very pleasant. Drinks were great. Lobby decor and food were ok. Overall, we left very happy.”

“I had not had such a good pizza in years! I am Italian and can honestly say that their Margherita is as good or better as any I ever had! I waited 28 years for this. We really needed it in West Sonoma county !”

“I have been going to River’s end restaurant for almost two decades and have always loved the experience. This time, I decided to stay a few days at the new Home collection lodging and the getaway was completely remarkable. I will make sure to come back more often in order to unplug and relax completely in this paradisiacal getaway.”

“We came here for dinner during our anniversary weekend and it was well worth it. They won't say it themselves, but I will: the menu is a blend of Italian and Japanese cuisine. Not fusion exactly, more like both traditions paying tribute side by side on the same menu. The handmade pasta is first class.

A real gem for dinner if you're nearby.”

“I love this place! Especially the “us vs. them” side by side tastings of new world vs. old world European wines. The recent pop-up dinner with second staff was very well done!”

“They are so sweet and caring to their guest. I absolutely adore Michelle & her family so much, it was a pleasure to meet her husband Jim for the first time as well tonight. They went above and beyond for my birthday and made me feel so special.”

“Top notch and the perfect setting for a getaway.”

“Every bite was so good! We had the chili, Rueben panini, a salad and the Parmesan pasta salad. Views of the river while we ate made the visit even better. Definitely recommend if you’re in the area!”

“The best sticky buns ever! The garlic and rosemary bread is so good! Everything is good! Yummy! I love the beautiful garden, too!”

“Jimmy & John are amazing! Cocktails are heaven! Vibe & service beyond stellar! Thank you!!”

“Staff was super friendly and polite, quiet little burger joint with quality food, the burger was better than in n out the patties are kind of thin. Krinkle cut fries were decent and they serve more than enough! Someone said this was better than sequoia burger and right down the road however I’d rate this burger a 4 compared to the full 5 star sequoia burger in comparison”

“Agave Mexican Restaurant has the best, most delicious dishes north of Marin. Delicious authentic homemade Mexican dishes. The best Mole sauce with almonds, herbs, chocolates, the best Mole sauce in the United States of America.”

“Amazing view to eat lunch to! Love the organic, gluten free and dairy free options. Love this place!”

“Fun time. Awesome grounds too.”

“Their Spent Grain and Sesame Epi are GREAT!”

“Outstanding wines. Easily the best Pinot Noir I have ever tasted. I buy cases for client gifts and I swear it drives more business!

I only wish I lived closer so I could be a regular at The Claypool Hotdog Stand!”

“Great, full bodied Zinfandels. We loved everything we tasted. If you’re a zin fan, Rockpile is a must visit.

We particularly enjoyed the wines made by Diane, the co-owner.

Nicole in the tasting room was as friendly and knowledgeable as we could have imagined, too.”

“Had lunch for the first time here today, a delicious one! The menu is huge, so I look forward to trying so many of their authentic dishes. Happy to have them in Healdsburg. -Ali Story”

“A wonderful visit with beautiful views, warm service, relaxing ambiance, and delicious food. The tasting was excellent, and Thomas George Estates is a lovely choice among Russian River Valley wineries.

Got to enjoy a small tour as well as talk to a wine maker as well!

10/10 would come back again!”

“Awesome bartender and drinks on a Saturday afternoon and warm welcoming atmosphere. Lots of love for this little place! The drinks are good value for money and well balanced. Tasty lemon drop with a Chambord float and Cosmo!”

“We had such a lovely experience day tasting wine with the special food pairings. We will be adding this as necessary stop for our yearly gals vacation.”

“So good! The pulled pork slaps and they had a very tasty, interesting take on potato salad. The man taking our order was friendly, too. Stop by!”

“Amazing wine tasting in a natural beautiful environment”

“My wife had a roasted eggplant and goat cheese with pesto sandwich. I had the open face smoked salmon sandwich. Both were absolutely amazing. I wouldn’t normally get so excited about a sandwich, but these were exceptional in their taste and presentation—plenty of fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers that seemed to come straight out of a garden. The location is super cute with a great vibe. The service was adequate, though not exceptional.”

“Great food and lots of it. It’s all good but my favorite is minestrone. Filled with veggies in a wonderful tomato broth. I always get at least one quart to go to eat throughout the week. Don’t forget the cookies”

“I wish I had pictures. The perfect burrito is all I can say. Been eating here for years and it’s never missed. I literally can’t drive through town without eating here if it’s open.”
