As a longtime fan of chef/owner, John Toulze and his wonderful enterprises, last night I had the distinct pleasure of enjoying dinner at his newest restaurant “Dead Letter”. It is welcoming, elegant and has a terrific vibe! The food is creative, ingenious, beautifully presented, and delicious. Don’t miss the swordfish schnitzel. It’s divine! Start with the shrimp toast, tasty bites of a crunchy Asian interpretation. Their plates are wonderful to share. The pièce...read full review
Had dinner with friends here recently and what a refreshing take on “wine country” dining. It’s definitely California cuisine, but really imaginative and fun. We ordered a lot of dishes and some of my favorites were the Tahini Hummus with Chicken Karaage, Shrimp Toast (picture)and the Black Cod, but the real surprise was the Crispy Eggplant, yum! I’m an eggplant lover, but even if you’re not give it a try.

Dead Letter Sonoma is a restaurant on Sonoma Plaza offering creative, flavorful food and a welcoming atmosphere. The food is imaginative, fun, playful and original, with bold flavors and beautiful presentation. The charcoal grill gives the dishes character, and the shared plates make it fun to try a little of everything. Specific dishes mentioned include the swordfish schnitzel, shrimp toast, Tahini Hummus with Chicken Karaage, Black Cod, Crispy Eggplant and the fruit tarte tatin, sometimes pear topped with ice cream and sometimes peach depending on what fruit is in season. The service is friendly, knowledgeable, efficient and unpretentious. The room is modern and comfortable with lots of fun little touches, including a machine in the lobby that dispenses tiny pieces of original art for $20. The atmosphere is lively and hip, if a little noisy, and the decor has incorporated the original stone walls and preserved the imprint of the old fireplace in the former post office. Prepare to slow down and enjoy the experience of fine dining that's not in a rush, and make reservations.
