We were very excited to try this place out and really enjoyed trying the seasonal brisket and meatball tagine. My husband loved the creative cold brew coffee options and the horchata was delicious (warning though the serving size for the horchata is very small).
I really loved the persimmon bread dessert. Reminded me of a richer version of my family persimmon bread.
I appreciated that the cost includes the tip as that is how it should be (supporting the staff in the price). We will return to try their changing tasty menu.

Good food, although it took a long time to get to us. Wonderful selection of coffee drinks. Love that menu prices are inclusive of tip + fees! Solid brunch spot.

My family has been coming here for years. It is our personal favorite place for weekend brunch. The food and drinks are delicious and always changing! It is on the higher end for prices but still very reasonable and no tipping is a nice change of pace.
Will always suggest the Persian Mug and Bocadillo. My personal favs.

I could not be happier with this restaurant. The menu is amazing and filled with variety and creativity. Everything we ordered was perfect, not just the food but the house made beverages as well. It’s also refreshing to have the tip included in the price which is the opposite of everything else I experience at other restaurants where I usually get a screen shoved in my face asking me to tip 30, 25, or 20% percent.
Pearl in Petaluma, keep it up we love everything about you and we’ll be back soon.

Wonderful all around. Menu pricing includes service, which was excellent. The shashuska was phenomenal. Great French press coffee and stunning fresh cherry cake for dessert. Highly recommend and plan to return often.

Stumbled here during a random Petaluma visit and I was blown away. Rich flavors, thoughtful menu and beverages, friendly service, dog-friendly patio. Everything we had was on point (Meatball Tagine, Sampler Plate, Shakshuka, Cardamom Pistachio Blondie). Wiped out the blondie so fast I didn't snap a pic. I'd probably drop by weekly if I lived in Petaluma.

Avant Lard Travel - by Houston Porter
This is one of our favorite restaurants in the North Bay and may be the best restaurant in Petaluma.
The food is always excellent, as is the service. Additionally, their drinks are amazing, including quite a few coffee drinks unlike anywhere else in town. (We love that Annette (co-owner) usually has txakolina (a Basque white wine) on the menu, as well as several top quality draft beers.)
And although they aren't open for dinner, they do hold special dinners from time to time and chef Brian (co-owner) always does a bang up job with regards to quality and creativity.
Standout dishes for us include the Cassoulet, brisket, meatballs, picnic plates, bocadillo, and braised lamb, but honestly, you can order anything on the menu and it will be great.
It should be noted that this is one of the rare restaurants where the price on the menu is the price you'll pay. There is no tipping required because it's included in the price, and really, they actually discourage adding anything else to the bill.

Food was a little too hoity-toity for me, but my girlfriend love the vegetarian options. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a top-notch culinary experience for the cost, just not for me
Love this place. A must visit every time I’m in town. Annette and the whole team are amazing. 10/10. The cold fashioned is the best coffee in

Our absolute favorite restaurant in all of Sonoma County. The food is impeccably prepared and curated. Selections are reasonably priced and well-worth it. It is certainly worth driving out of your way for a meal here.
As a note, the menu often has new and rotating dishes responsive to the current season or availability of bio-diverse food. Visit frequently to get the full experience!

Great place, tasty food, but extremely slow service, we stopped for a quick brunch on our way to hot springs and stuck for 1,5 hour eventually.
