Stockhome 220 Western Avenue, Petaluma Mediterranean • $$

“A Swedish Gem in Petaluma! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ​If you are looking for a dining experience that is both authentically Swedish and refreshingly modern, Stockhome in Petaluma is an absolute must-visit. It perfectly captures that vibrant Stockholm street-food vibe while keeping things incredibly healthy and high-quality. ​ Favorites: • ​The Salmon Gyro: This is a total game-changer. The salmon is perfectly prepared—fresh, light, and seasoned beautifully. Wrapping those clean Nordic flavors into a gyro format makes for a meal that feels like a treat without being heavy. • ​Elderberry Soda with a Splash of Lemonade: This was the highlight of the drink menu! The subtle, floral sweetness of the house-made elderberry soda paired with the bright citrus of a splash of lemonade is the ultimate refreshing combination. It’s a "pro-tip" order that I’ll be repeating every time. • ​The Vibe: The space is bright, minimalist, and welcoming—true to its Scandinavian roots. It’s clear they prioritize fresh ingredients and authentic flavors, from their amazing meatballs to their lighter, veggie-forward options. ​Stockhome has easily become one of my favorite spots for a delicious, nutrient-dense lunch that feels special. Tack så mycket! 🇸🇪🍋”

“I arrived 1/2 hour before closing and placed an order to go - we were camping nearby. The family quickly got to it while Afir visited with me. He was an awesome and attentive host and chatted with me on a variety of topics while I waited. Returning to camp my wife and I enjoyed the excellent cuisine. The chicken tikka masala, naan and vegetables were delicious. We could have split one meal, but I’m glad we ordered two—no cooking tonight!”

Understandably busy but also there is enough table spacing, so you don't feel like a sardine. The presentation was beautiful and service is authentic and friendly. You can tell there is a lot of care behind both the food and the experience.
Reservations do require a credit card to hold, which is completely reasonable for a popular place like this.
Overall, we had a wonderful family dinner and were really impressed. It's exciting to have a place like this in Petaluma. We will definitely be back! Highly recommend!”

“Last night, at the Vault of Scottsdale, I had a marvelous experience with Adobe Road Wines and the TRG team. They had the iconic #66 TRG GT car that won the 24 Hours of Daytona victory, and they provided a marvelous collection of wines to the guests. Kevin Buckler and Callum were nice enough to give me a VIP pass to the event. The crew member for The Racers Group race team - Al - was very friendly and informative about the race team. He allowed me to sit in the car behind the wheel and get photos with it. The Vault also had a nice sports-car collection, and it was the perfect setting for the wine-tasting. Al and Cullum were nice enough to give me a tiny ARW token, and autograph some photos of the TRG GT America race-car I saw race in the streets of Nashville a few years ago. The food was delicious - the sweets with fruit, the cheese and crackers, and the best mashed potatoes I've had by far. The food was high-quality and I got to make some great connections. I wish I could attend every event that they host, but I will definitely return the next time they come to Arizona, hopefully for multiple events. Everyone - if they come to your location - this is a 100% great experience for both wine tasters and motorsports fans. Thanks to Kevin, Cullum, and Al for the terrific hospitality and VIP entrance. I admire and respect what Kevin Buckler is building up with Adobe and The Racers Group. If you're ever out in San Francisco area - go to Petaluma and visit their headquarters in-person. The scale is not high enough for me to justify the experience. So, I have to give it 5 out of 5. If not for the 5/5 scale, it'd be a 100/100. :)”

Only one irritation occurred last week (this only happened once) : we were enjoying our usual No. 2 order, when a young lady about 24 or 25 accompanied by a slightly older woman, both well dressed, came to our table and wanted us to buy their lunch. We refused, they returned to their table fronting Lakeville, and subsequently hit up another diner, who succumbed and bought their food. Blessings to him for his generosity, but we didn't appreciate being panhandled as we sat enjoying our lunch. hope it doesn't happen again or In&Out will have lost two paying regular customers.”

Avid Coffee 21 4th Street, Petaluma Cafe • $

“As a professional barista, I have a higher standard for coffee than most and will refuse to drink from most commercial roasters. Acre coffee is one of the best experiences I've had in a coffee shop yet. Legitimately good coffee, friendly faces, great atmosphere and an eagerness to bring you back in. 9/10. When coffee is this good, a long line can bring a wait time but the coffee, food and pastries are still well worth it”

Bianchini's 1367 N McDowell Blvd #100, Petaluma Sandwich Shop • $

“Their custom salads are my favorite. Choose a type of green (romaine, spring mix, etc.), and add ingredients, toppings and dressing. Nothing complex, but always good quality served with a smile. Their sandwiches are quite good, as well. One of the specials (as in, not available every day), is a Buffalo Chicken sandwich and is probably my favorite. The prices are reasonable for the quality and quantity of the food.

Parking: It is a large lot, shared by multiple tenants in the shopping center. I have never seen it more than 50% full.”

In-N-Out Burger 1010 Lakeville Highway, Petaluma Hamburger • $

“as usual: Great hamburger, fries and for the money can't be beat. Only one irritation occurred last week (this only happened once) : we were enjoying our usual No. 2 order, when a young lady about 24 or 25 accompanied by a slightly older woman, both well dressed, came to our table and wanted us to buy their lunch. We refused, they returned to their table fronting Lakeville, and subsequently hit up another diner, who succumbed and bought their food. Blessings to him for his generosity, but we didn't appreciate being panhandled as we sat enjoying our lunch. hope it doesn't happen again or In&Out will have lost two paying regular customers.”

We chose our table inside by the large windows that looked out on the River. Our server was Jessica and she was simply wonderful. She was very attentive throughout the meal but not intrusive (give this lady a raise!). The food was wonderful. Plenty of choices for all. I might suggest that you put something chocolate on the dessert menu. Thank you all for a delightful evening.”

Torches 256 Petaluma Boulevard North, Petaluma Restaurant • $$

“Had lunch there today. I had a French dip sandwich made of prime rib.. I had the sandwich, packed with prime rib, plus au jus. The fun was crispy, but not ready. As a side, they provided tater tots, which I happen to love. I asked if I could also have a side of coleslaw, which was delicious and was added without charge. It was about the best French dip that I’ve ever had in 67 years. The bun was crispy, but not heavy. Dipped into the au jus, it was heaven.They are good hearted people, and they should be patronized.”

He was an awesome and attentive host and chatted with me on a variety of topics while I waited. Returning to camp my wife and I enjoyed the excellent cuisine. The chicken tikka masala, naan and vegetables were delicious. We could have split one meal, but I’m glad we ordered two—no cooking tonight!”

“If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to eat pastries made by a fairy, go to Blooms End. We happened to show up when she reintroduced the Watermelon Sugar cake, each pastry was incredibly complex in its own unique way, we ordered 6 pastries and had to go back through the line to get more to share with friends and family. In addition to stunningly beautiful food, Mary is a beautiful storyteller. Her instagram posts and how she distills her life experience into each idea, it feels like each weekend is its own event, which it often is with whatever produce is in season. She’s also an incredibly lovely energy, if you’re looking for a dizzying morning of stunning food, ambiance, drive out to Blooms End.”

I was especially grateful for their pain au raisin. My one qualm (and this may be controversial because the bakery is near SF) is that the baguettes are sourdough and not authentically French.”
