Restaurants near Rio Nido

“Went for live music and had amazing bbq’d burgers made on the grill in front of me. Friendly staff, great food, excellent music. They were knowledgeable and able to accommodate my celiac requirements. Highly recommend!”

“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 !”

“Great food and service. Strong Japanese influence with local ingredients. Wine was great but expensive compared to European three star spots. Knowledge about the food varied among the waiters - one told us the cabbage dish was all fresh cabbage, then ten minutes later we listened to a different waiter tell the table next to us that it was half fermented cabbage (and that was a pattern). Duck was a highlight - blew EMP duck out of the water. I appreciated the use of sound dampening materials on the interior.”

“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.”

“Fantastic food, excellent service, all at a fair price. While we were in Healdsburg we dined at four restaurants and paid $200 to $650 for a party of four. We all agreed Guiso was by far the best value. Most, if not all, of the staff are related and take care and pride in their restaurant. For lunch or dinner everyone visiting Healdsburg should dine at least once at this lovely restaurant.”

“Better burger than In-N-Out. And I will stand on that ever since I had discovered this place close by I eat here about 3 to 4 times a week.

Now I do get the same burger every time, but that’s because this place cannot miss

With a great options to the menu and even better dessert, this place has me waking up craving a burger every day

I feel like this is a hidden gem so if you’re ever in the area, this is a must stop”

“We had a great prix fixe meal of 3 courses but the also offer 5 courses. No bad selections except for the cauliflower steak. I don’t think that is worth a steak or shrimp pasta but that is my opinion. Outdoor dining is available and they have heaters by the wall of sliding windows that open up totally he outside. Awesome deserts. I had the cookie butter cheesecake. I died and went to heaven.”

“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!”

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

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

“Perfect Anniversary dinner! The bolognese was amazing! loved the fresh peach buratta appetizer.”

“Delicious wine and knowledgeable staff!”

“We had an amazing tasting experience and tour at Emeritus Winery. Every Pinot Noir we tried was excellent, and Glenn was absolutely top class from start to finish. This was hands down our best wine tasting experience to date.”

“Absolutely delicious and visually gorgeous food! The food was fresh and incredibly flavorful. A new favorite place to eat and shop in Healdsburg!! Excellent friendly service and great ambience. I am now on a mission to learn how to cook vegetable based foods like that!”

“Valette is the kind of restaurant that reminds you why dining out is an experience, not just a meal. The Day Boat Scallops en Croûte is an absolute showstopper—encased in a delicate, golden pastry, it arrives at the table with a dramatic tableside pour of velvety sauce. The result? A perfect balance of buttery richness and ocean-fresh sweetness. Another amazing is the Sashimi Grade Hawaiian Ahi Poke Style. This is not your ordinary poki as it is made with 24 Month Barrel Aged Soy. The level of freshness of the fish truly comes through as the flavors blend perfectly with the crisp avocado. It is a fine line when adding a flash fried avocado to a dish that’s usually served cold. Vallete executes it perfectly! For the main course, the Dry-Aged Duck is a must-try. Crispy skin, succulent meat, and a medley of locally sourced seasonal veggies. Dessert is not an afterthought here. Strongly Suggest even if we do not have room at the end we always order the ItsNotA ‘Snickers Bar’ Deux. Service is impeccable—attentive without being intrusive, and the staff exudes genuine passion for the food and wine they serve. We love the whole team but especially Aaron-Jake-Sean-Isaac are amazing !?!?”

“I had heard amazing things about this winery from other locals in Sonoma, but finally decided to check it out for myself! Laura was amazing in helping me select/book our tasting, as they have so many incredible options. We decided to book the ‘soaring’ experience, which included the most delicious, unique, flavorful food and wine pairings. I am truly still dreaming about every food pairing we had, I felt like I was in a Michelin star restaurant. The curry was definitely the star of the show for me, but every single bite/sip we had was truly exceptional.
Allie warmly welcomed us to the winery and made sure to encourage us to enjoy the (STUNNING) grounds both before and after our tasting, while handing us a delicious glass of bubbles to enjoy.
Taryn and Michael were the most personable, knowledgable hosts- we really enjoyed learning about the wines/winery, but also just talking and laughing with them. We never had empty glasses or had to wait for service- they were perfectly attentive while still giving us space to enjoy our experience.
The entire staff was very generous during our visit, including a few extra tastings of their personal favorite wines. I really appreciate that they invite every type of experience you could want- whether that be enjoying a bottle with friends while playing a board game, or treating yourself to a special food and wine pairing experience- all at a very welcoming price.

Thank you Bricoleur for being my new favorite winery!”

“Top 3 things I loved: 1) breathtaking views of the valley and a peaceful atmosphere, 2) the warm and knowledgeable service during the wine tour, 3) the stylish décor and well‑crafted wine tasting experience. I had a wonderful time and will definitely return – one of the best wineries in Russian River Valley.”

“Had an amazing dinner at Asahi tonight. We did the omakase menu - the fish was incredibly fresh and well-prepared. The chef was also very friendly and welcoming. We will be regular customers for sure!”

“Kyle is an amazing, knowledgeable guide through DRNK’s beautiful and approachable wines. His knowledge is impressive, and his enthusiasm is contagious. DRNK is definitely a Sonoma County Gem. Everything from their Pinots to their Cabs are absolutely delicious.”

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

“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”

“I’m making a special trip from Illinois just to eat here. Gonna revolve our Vacation around the area. Looking forward to coming”

“Amazing wine! Got 10 cases 🙈
Our server Reed was very informative, great convo & not just about wine! We talked about business ventures, martial arts (nun chucks!), breathing exercises, wrestling & He also told us the best way to get sparkling glasses (magic erasers!) & the best place to buy them wholesale! (Sponge depot!) He will be missed but we'll see him next visit! 🥂”

“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”

“amazing wines, the owners are super personable and helpful, the charcuterie and the sangria were delicious!🍷🥂 5 star by far⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“What a fantastic place! We went for the Restaurant Week special and it was just stunning. Excellent potato leek bisque with espelette pepper powder for a hint of spiciness, and then my wife had a large serving of chicken and fries, and I loved the buckwheat crèpe with chanterelles, leek and cheese. But wait, there was more! A very generously sized chocolate pot de crème, just sinful. And: all that on their covered heated patio, so we could even bring doggo! Can't wait to return :)”

“Hi… 4 of us were old time wine tasters. 2 never experienced wine tasting before. Darren gave the new guests a full tasting experienced. While he poured a variety of your best wines to satisfy an experienced tasters pallet. I joined your club and carried out 12 bottles of yum to go. Great experience. We will be back.”

“absolutely the best pizza around this area. Great food, nice people, a great combo.”

“The Cattle Company is such a great spot! The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, with a fun, relaxed vibe that makes you want to stay awhile. The staff is super friendly and always makes you feel right at home.

The drinks are great, the bar has plenty of energy, and there’s never a dull moment with pool tables and pinball machines to keep the fun going. Whether you’re stopping by for a drink with friends or looking for a place to unwind and play a few games, this place delivers every time.

Highly recommend for good drinks, good times, and great company! 🍻🎱🕹️”

“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!”
