“Such a wonderful little spot in an understated strip mall in Sebastopol. Owned by a local family, the service is so attentive and welcoming! The menu is extensive, including all the classics for breakfast and lunch plus some unusual offerings like cabbage borscht, gumbo, and a delicious homemade mushroom gravy served on biscuits or as a side which I almost always order- it's great on poached eggs, the potatoes served with eggs, or even just to dunk toast into . Always a great experience, I will return to hole in the wall over and over.“
“The food was beyond delicious! I have had bad ceviche so I was worried it wouldn't taste great but it was heavenly. It had the right amount of spicy, tenderness, and juice. The tostada was to die for, the thick mole sauce on top made it 10x better. The service was quick and easy. Was able to sit outside because of warm weather and it was beautiful. You are surrounded by nature and it was calm, almost made me want to stay after my meal was done. I will say they are a bit pricey, everything costed nearly $60 and although it is not pictured, their horchata is a must. If you are in the area definitely check them out! I will come back here again.“
“The Cook and The Drummer were awesome! The food was delicious and the service and staff where definitely all 5 stars! They made our son's wedding an exceptional success and everyone who attended gave rave reviews! I cannot thank them all enough!“
“Love this spot. Hands down the best breakfast spot in sebastopol! Coming from someone who has lived here for 35 years ! Local, delicious, friendly and great specials! What more could u want! It's All about the breakfast sandwich!“
“We were looking for a classic breakfast, and this place had it all! I had eggs, bacon, and hasbrowns. My eggs were cooked perfectly, and so was everything else. My husband had the French toast, and that was delicious as well. Friend and speedy service!“
“My friend and I went for the Friends of PeaceTown music event. The music was awesome. There were 2 stages. The were times that the was competition between the two bands only for short period of time. My friend and I shared the tacos and some fries. There were four tacos too fish tacos, and two with meat. The fish tacos were very, very good and had a really good flavor. The meat tacos, which I think might've been pork or a little on the side but tasty. The tables were comfortable enough, but there weren't enough seating for everybody that was there due to the people were listening to. Our waitress was very good and quick“
“We love Fandee's! They do the standards really well, but the menu also has a lot of specialty items. We love them for brunch! Great eggs hollandaise burgers etc. I recently tried their shukshuka (eggplant and tomato dish with two eggs baked on top) and it was amazing! Dont overlook this special local place - they never disappoint - and the service is always super friendly!“
“We visited Townes during Sonoma County restaurant week and they did not disappoint! Their Mussels were absolutely to die for! There wasn't just a simple broth in the bottom of the dish, it was more like a tasty chowder with fine veggies and seasonings that you wanted to soak up every drop of! Their desserts were also yummy. The setting is pretty simple having previously been 3rd Street Ale Works but the food and service was stellar!“
“Absolutely phenomenal! The hype is real.Ham & cheese empanada: SO GOOD with gooey cheese and a really flavorful ham! Not your usual ham & cheese.Spicy beef empanadas: great seasonings with just a touch of heat.Tarts: buffalo (crazy good, a bit tangy with tons of savory) , spinach/artichoke (creamy perfection with loads of seasoning), plum/bacon (sweet and savory), al pastor (the sauces really make it), and a dessert blueberry cobbler. Each was absolutely mind-blowing. The crust was so fluffy and light, and the fillings extremely flavorful.Husband says it's now his favorite spot in Santa Rosa. We just finished and already want to place a second order. Going to try their sandwich next.(Also the box comes with a fresh flower. Nice little touch :D)“
“During a business trip to Rohnert Park, we were fortunate enough to happen upon this gem! A menu with the right amount of variety. The food was absolutely delicious. The Walter Hansel Cuvee Alyce Chardonnay was breathtaking. I have never had better. The service was incredible. They had a small staff working to serve, but as soon as we finished a course, they were removing the dishes and delivering the next course, which was perfectly prepared. The restaurant is intimate, warm and inviting. It was very clear the entire staff enjoyed what they were doing and were proud of their work, as they should be! We look forward to the next opportunity to return, for sure. The only disappointing thing is that we live too far away to come here often.“
“The food is amazing and the customer service is top notch! I enjoyed the carne asada French fries which were heaping with cheese and meat. Everything tastes fresh and the meat didn't taste like mock steak that other places try passing off as real. I believe this may have just become my new favorite Mexican restaurant in all of Sonoma county. Though this was 11 miles from my house in Rohnert Park, I will easily make it my new go to for amazing Mexican food. The avocado salsa is spicy but super good.... I give this place 10 stars, and I like to think of myself as a Mexican food critic with growing up in San Diego where all the Mexican food is great! I am so stuffed after only less then 3/4 of my meal, which I should have stopped eating while I was ahead, but I managed to savor every last bite. The breakfast burritos look amazing so that is what I'm chasing after next. You're welcome...“
“Lasagna was super soft and tasty. Plenty of sauce to mop up with the buttered bread.Spaghetti Carbonara I was told is very good. The Fettuccine Alfredo is a kid favorite. Brother had the bouillabaisse, which he thought tasted great, but wasn't very filling. The shrimp, clams, scallops, salmon, and calamari were very delicious, but he wanted more of each. He said he got 2 shrimp, 3 clams and a little bit of everything else. Soaked up the soup with bread, but was still not filling.Sister had the chicken Marsala and Mom had the chicken piccata. I thought the chicken was a little dry, but the roasted potatoes and brussel sprouts were good. Mom said the chicken was half dry and half good.The violinist was very good. Played a couple of covers we recognized. I recognized Zombie by the Cranberries, but I don't know a lot of song names. Very good. Violinist walked around and gave everyone in the restaurant a front row seat to the music.Waitstaff is amazing and checked in on us multiple times. Refilled water without prompting which was nice. Refilled bread multiple times which was great. The olive oil and black vinegar went very well with the bread. I thought it was garlic bread until I saw the garlic bread on the menu. Very surprised. The table bread is amazing and surprised it's free. I would come just to have a drink and eat bread ??Bathroom is clean, but the soap dispenser is a bit hard to press for a kid. Adults should have no problems.After 6pm, the nearby parking is free.Street parking is also free after 6pm Mon to Sat.Parking: After 6pm it's free.“
“Love this place! My boyfriend and I first tried Vine on DoorDash and immediately knew it would be added to our regular take out rotation.Then my dad came into town for work, finished his work early so he looked for a place to go eat while I was working, saw a lamb burger on the menu and knew he would he going there! In addition to the great food, the owner and server were both extremely friendly and welcoming.We love Vine Burgers and recommend it to all our friends and visitors in the area!“
“Casual dinning done right.A gem of a neighbourhood eatery, to be jealous of.From start to check, was flawless.Friendly, attentive staff, proud to show off their wines and a food.Everything we ate was on point, and everything we drank equally as good.Good portions and easy to share courses was a vibe.“
“Moved to Downtown Santa Rosa a year ago. I've made it a point to visit Mac's (almost) weekly. They serve up amazing sandwiches and offer 47 different options on the menu. Incredibly nice staff and you can feel the family owned atmosphere.“
“Valley Ford Cheese and Creamery is a great spot to pick up delicious local cheeses. You can sit down and have a meal or pick up some cheese to go. My favorite was the fontina cheese but you cannot go wrong with any of the cheeses in their selection. They also sell a great array of jams, candles, and other goods. This is definitely a great place to visit.“
“Stopped in for lunch to a restaurant I had visited before, as my regular was so busy and had no parking available. I truly had a great Dungeness crab salad! Awesome dressing on lettuce that did not overpower the whole. Cucumber crisp, tomatoes were good, sliced boiled egg, plenty of a perfectly beautiful avocado sliced on top, sliced asparagus was a yum and a great portion of sweet tasty Dungeness crab. I now want to return to try other things on the menu. Only I just didn't get a water refill , but they were busy so that was overlooked.“
“Obsessed. Jeffrey's is our favorite neighborhood breakfast spot. We like to go an hour or 1.5 hours before closing as the line has died down by this point. My husband is a chicken fried steak connoisseur and he says this is the best one. I'm a big fan of the cobb salad with a side of fries for lunch and the bacon & Brussels sprouts hash for breakfast. The staff are friendly, personable and accommodating. Ambiance is family friendly. Outdoor seating available and dog friendly patio.“
“We had a hugely successful catering event for 25 people with Zoftig. Their catering staff was organized, kind and communicative. I opted to pick up the food which was ready on time, and was perfectly fresh. The sandwiches were packed with toppings and the party platters were well constructed. Huge hit!“
“This was the most serendipitous discovery on our trip. We were looking for a brunch spot that served more than just basic staples and didn't charge $$$ for a few eggs. When we saw locomoco on the menu, we knew we had to visit.The service was extremely friendly and sweet, like visiting relatives who were excited to see you after a long time. They were more than happy to accommodate for my diabetes and substituted sauteed veggies instead of rice/bread. My coffee was never empty either! Food came quickly and was exactly what we were craving. We had such a great experience the first morning, we went again the next day! This has quickly become a favorite for the area; can't wait to visit again next year!“
“As always, a fantastic experience. I met a work colleague for a breakfast meeting and River Vine was the perfect place — quiet, beautiful, comfortable atmosphere, respectful service and delicious food. You can't go wrong with RV. Also, plenty of parking, which is also a perk!“
“Really nice people working here. We were so happy to find something that had outdoor seating and was dog friendly during a weekend where rain was heavy and often. Parking is limited and lotsa tourists around. Park at the cute country store and buy a soda and then go over to Estero. Great menu, lots of little creative dishes and the service was so nice and friendly and sweet. Well run, deliciously satisfying food, cooked well, and lots of crab based specials that looked awesome. On a quiet part of Highway 1, go here and be impressed and well taken care of. Thanks for the delicious coffee and food!“
“I’ve eaten here many times. The first time I had the Bacon Jam BLT. It is beyond delicious! It is so good that I have ordered it every time since, even though the rest of their menu looks good as well. The two sisters are absolutely wonderful hosts/waitresses and are very charming. I highly recommend this restaurant.“
“Their vegan burrito was exactly what I was craving. Glad they have something vegan to eat. The person we ordered from couldn't tell us if anything else on the menu could be vegan but they were up front about that and I appreciate their honesty. They had hot tea that I liked. Free water in reusable cups. Only rating the food low because I'd love more vegan options. My partner liked what they ordered.“
“Good burgers (of various sorts) and sides, along with some tasty beers. The garlic fries were perhaps excessively garlic, and the cajun fries sat in sand dunes of cajun seasoning.Service was friendly and helpful, and, though the orders were served in back, the person at the register recognized me to call me over when the order was up.The overall interior was in industrial plywood, but it had a homey, pleasant feel.Net-net -- I would be happy to return, though I'm not sure it's quite worth the side trip from the 101 to get to it.Parking: Parking lot shared with the rest of the shopping center.“
“Had a great table in a great setting, great service with Paul, and great food. Lucky us! I have one tip, if you are on a low salt diet this is gonna be hard to pick out something. This is not a criticism. I did find it at the upper end of my personal tolerance, but please understand the food was delicious. Not only delicious but refreshingly creative. We eat by splitting courses. Started with the pimento cheese bread (brioche), this is not a stand-alone ap but a gooey topping on bread that is light, airy, and rich. It went well with their well above average Negroni. Creativity kicked in with the tacos, probably all of them are good. Our pick was pastrami tacos. Very fun. I've heard the duck choice is good. Next were the lamb meatballs. Some people complain about the gaminess of lamb, but I complain when it isn't gamey-lamby enough. If you like mild lamb, their choice of meat is great. My personal preferences aside, it was a very good dish. Finished with a very nice and just-right panna cotta. This place is definitely going into our rotation (The Santa Rosa, CA rotation: B&B, Jackson's, Grossmans, Ca Bianca, Cascabel, Yeti)“
“I can't say enough about the deli portion of Korbel. On a beautiful day, you cannot go wrong here. From the sandwiches to the salads, different bottles of champagne's, amazing view and amazing staff...this is a win win. I may be bias because this is 10 minutes from my house and I frequent here...I also don't think so. It's a gem. Enjoy.“
“Gotta say when you're in the mood for a satisfying meal, this is the place. Stopped in for lunch yesterday. The patty melt was perfect, The fries were overcooked and crispy, almost like matchsticks. The service was great and friendly. I think this is more of a breakfast place, as most of the folks around us were still enjoying breakfast. Large waffles, ample portions, steaming omelettes, you get the idea. The real deal.“
“On a Saturday night, felt a little crammed and forgotten about but understandable. I disliked the Expressro Martini and would not recommend it. My SO got their Irish Coffee special and loved it to where he ordered another. We enjoyed a small size of both Mini Corn Dogs and Jalapeno Peppers. Both weren't breathtaking, but hit the spot in terms of delicious bar food.“
“I loved this place, I felt cared for by my family at the moment and the greeting was the best, the burger was at its peak as I like it juicy, the lemonade drink is incredible, I will recommend all my friends to go to this place. Experience 10/10“
“I used to live in SR and would always go to my usual coffee house in this spot. Much to my surprise it was long gone and this special java place fell into it's place. Not sad at all. Eclectic vibe full of amazing and artfully collected relics and vintage artifacts that take you back to a time long past but with a modern and magical flare. Now for the coffee and treats. The coffee is divine. Crafted with care and love to your exact morning or afternoon needs. I usually get a latte with a hint of lavender. The pastries are not to be missed. The baristas and owners are wonderful and friendly. This is now my go to spot when I pull into Sonoma County. Thank you The Branch Line.“
“The service is amazing. As soon as we walked in we were instantly greeted with a smile and a warm welcome. I felt at home right away. Our waitress was absolutely wonderful, she accommodated our every need, I wanted to leave a tip before we even got our food. I would definitely recommend.“
“Piner Cafe is the place to go for an exceptional 'diner' experience. It feels so homey, but has a youthful vibe regardless. The waitstaff are so personal and know many customers by name. My boyfriend got the BBQ Bacon burger with onion rings, and garlic fries on the side. The burger was cooked perfectly, not soggy, and the red onions were very fresh. Best garlic fries ever! I got a classic grilled cheese with fries, cheddar on sourdough.“
“The food here is amazing. Also the smoothies as well. Yes it's not cheap. But you are paying for quality not quantity. Customer service is very good. The location is good. Atmosphere is very nice. The two times I have gone here I have sat outside. First time was during Covid and the second time was last Saturday.“
“Started with happy hour appetizers and cocktails. Great gin Martini for the price, Brussels were yummy, beet fries were soggy, siracha mayo overpowered the flavor in my opinion. Our server assumed we were just there for HH, brought us a dessert menu and offered the check before we ordered dinner.... Ooops. Loved the miso pasta with meatballs enough to come back for them !!“
“We have loved dining at Stormy’s for years, and always enjoy taking loved ones here for celebrations. Wonderful ambiance with big fireplace and old school vintage items for decor. Roger, Carolyn, daughter Taylor and son in law Fabio always cook/serve amazing food and are very welcoming and accommodating to us. The rib eye steak is the BEST we’ve had in Sonoma County!“
“Best burger place ever. I love the service me and all the kids at school love joe and all the workers. Fairly cheap we love Carr's no matter how old we get we will always come by and get my usual, specialty fry's and a good al large lemonade, and sometimes a cookies and cream shake if you don't like Carr's there is something wrong with you.“
“This is a popular place. We had a little wait but not bad.Service was fine.My eggs Benedict were tasty but I almost asked for a steak knife. The muffin base was very tough to cut through.Another"happy" place. Filled with families and groups of friends. Very, very loud. No one else seemed to mind though. Maybe it was the colorful mimosas...Parking: We went on a Sunday when parking is free on the streets. Parking lot holds very few spaces for the size of the restaurant. Be prepared to walk a little.“
“Cute Peanuts-themed cafe where you could get a quick bite, warm beverages, etc, to fuel up yourself or you family members before heading onto the ink rink. Charles M Schulz himself used to eat breakfast at a reserved table before starting his work day. Very cool history and insight behind it all. The workers are friendly and polite. Service "can be" slow during peak hours and just because they are so busy serving people. So be patient and enjoy the ambiance of it all.“
“I don't live in Santa Rosa any more, I haven't in ~20 years but I grew up there and EVERYONE knows Sam's! I was in town for the holidays and went there for lunch with a friend. The menu is enormous and while I was tempted by the all day breakfast, I landed on a French Dip sandwich that I had been craving. If you are anywhere in the area, stop by, you'll be glad you did!Kid-friendliness: Family friendly restaurant - be sure to check out the staff's name tags! Reminded me of my first job working at Camp Wa-Tam. ;-)“
“The menu offers a variety of classic breakfast and lunch options, ranging from fluffy pancakes and hearty omelets to fresh salads and gourmet sandwiches. Each dish is prepared with care and attention to detail, using locally sourced ingredients whenever possible.“
“Went here for dinner, and it was perfect! Haven't been here in some time, but I've been here for dinner and live music in the past, and it is great! and I forgot how good it is! Tonight Ernesto was our server, and he was awesome! Went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with our meals, and made good suggestions when we placed our orders. I had the turkey chili, and it was very good! I'm going to this place next time we are thinking of a place to go! It will be soon! Thanks for a good,long lasting place! AN“
“It's not fancy but it IS tasty. I've eaten here a couple times and the staff is always friendly and the food has been great. It's a bit tucked away but worth a go when you're in the area. They do mexican food and some other genres. But I've been happy with everything I've ordered to date.“
“This place is awesome! My friend and I stopped here kinda randomly and were both impressed. We were greeted by friendly staff and even invited to bring our dog along since they have outdoor seating with plenty of room and atmosphere. I saw an area for corn hole as well. It seems like a great place for large groups. The food was tasty and the beer was so good! I'm excited to come back here next time I'm in town. Shout out to our waiter who was so nice and accommodating! Thank you!“
“This place, of all the places I've tried up north, and I live in RohnertPark, is the most consistently, very very good hamburger. If you want great ambiance it's not the best, but it is clean, efficient, and a good "diner" type place. If you want a great tasting hamburger, cooked well, great seasoning, and very generous with both the burger and whatever fries you chose, this is the place. I am VERY picky when it comes to hamburgers and I must say- this is the best. A little pricey- but worth it when you want more than the fast food deal.“
“The food was absolutely great. Flavorful, seasoned perfectly, great sauce. Had the Chili Verde dinner. Ri e, beans, pico de gallo, guacamole. Wonderful. Extensive menu to order from. Prompt cheerful service. Premises very clean with nice decorations. Truly a 5-star experience!“
“We came here to eat but only stayed for a drink because the bartender was the most miserable human ever. Would give zero stars for my experience but its not the bars fault she was so rude or maybe it is not sure. She was tall brunette with curly hair. I usually get the names and make friends with my bartender and gave her plenty of chances to make her rudeness forgiven but she took none of them. So now I am going somewhere else for lunch.“
“Had the half fried chicken with clam chowder. Chowder should have been served first but I had to find the waiter to ask for it. The chicken was seasoned with salt and pepper and fried. The outside was crunchy and the inside was very moist and tasty.“
“Good food, fast & friendly service, plus excellent for the price! I usually don't find many places that are able to do all 3, but I only spent $53 for the bottlecap burger, fettuccine Alfredo, lemonade, a beer, and an appetizer of fried pickles. Really friendly staff, but we got the food fairly fast. As a bonus it's a nice relaxed atmosphere.“
“So good! I knew how good their drinks were and have heard great things about the food so we have been dying to try it. My husband and I came in on a Saturday night and had our 2 year old with us... I let the host know my 2 year old was with us and that I was unsure if it was appropriate and he made us feel SO welcome. Overall the service was amazing, the drinks are exceptional, and the food is as good as we had heard. The smash burger is a must! :)“
