It was a busy night but there is no excuse for a tabled customer to wait for drinks to be brought twice, with the second ordered before a large group came into the bar and was served right away. There's also no reason for an entree to sit in the service window for 15minutes before being brought to the table if the patron can see it sitting there. The food was great but that's only a small part of what makes a person want to come back to a restaurant

Beautiful setting, great service, is a lovely community gathering space- with a great bar.

I have often gone here for lunch and enjoyed it. But the dinner menu lacked many lunch items, was quite small. The pasta dishes were very average in flavor except for the Papardelle which was excellent. The calamari appy was very good but small portion. The house wines were average to good. The staff and ambience, location are all terrific but I was disappointed with the food and would go back for lunch, not dinner. Cost was average.

Thanks for being open on Christmas Day. Our server was a delightful young woman that made a wonderful addition to the meal. Will be back.

I came here with friends and one of them has a service dog. As soon as we arrived, we were approached by the owner saying “ you can’t bring the dog and asked for id”. We told him that he was not supposed to ask for an id”. He rudely disagreed. He then looked for his car and presented it before we were able to sit.
They charge $5 for a soft drink with lots of ice with no refills.
On top of it they charge an admin fee . I asked what this was for? They said it was for cc fee.
I would not recommend this place to anyone
Not worth it. Very rude owner/Manager

Amazing evening. Celebrated our anniversary The staff is oustanding: attentive & professional. Hector & Maria The food was excellent! Calamari, Caprese, fusilli & prawns .... our favorite dining experience in Sonoma! If you want an intimate lovely Italian meal in a cozy spot this is the place. Cute bar area too!!

This was our second visit to this establishment and we weren’t disappointed. The chicken piccata was prepared just right over a bed of mashed potatoes and sautéed spinach. And the Papardelle was excellent; a perfect combo of sausage, noodles and tomato based broth with garlic and spices. Yum! Service was outstanding and a good value for the area. We will definitely be back!

We stopped in for a cocktail midday while our wives were shopping and had a great time with the staff, the owner and some of the other patrons. So we went back for dinner and has a wonderful evening. I had the spaghetti & Meatballs; Excellent!! Will go back next fall when we are back for the "Crush".

The food was good, the portion size was hearty but not overwhelming. The focaccia was fantastic and the mushroom risotto was savory & creamy but balanced well and being a huge fan of mushrooms I felt the dish actually had a nice variety however I would have liked to see a less watery texture in the mushrooms of this dish. My waiter and the rest of the staff were extremely friendly & attentive which was appreciated.

Small venue in historic building on Sonoma town square. Service was good and food was better than expected. Read the menu and understand the charges for sides and extras. We had the spaghetti with meatballs and cheese tortellini. Bothe were very good. $2.50 for bread and butter didn't shock us. If you're looking for casual Italian in Sonoma, worth a visit.
