“Being Brazilian of Portuguese descent and a good cook, my expectations were managed. I didn't check reviews or saw photos but took a look at their menu outside and had to try their Portuguese dishes. The cod fritters bolinhos de bacalhau were authentic and delicious. It's hard to make them and find descent salted cod. The wine flights, white port wine, desserts and the whole dining experience were fantastic. These days most restaurants are very expensive with mediocre or just ok food. La Salette made me believe in great food again. The flavors kept building up and surprised us. We're coming back soon.“

“So our family has a friendly competition to locate the best fish tacos anywhere. And I am a chili relleno snob so we stopped here on my daughter-in-law's suggestion and unfortunately she wins or maybe fortunately? The fish tacos were better than anything I've ever had and the chili Anna was above average so I can strongly recommend this place for the food. We had to wait about 10 minutes at the register even though they were open at 11:00 which bothers me a little bit because if you're going to open the front door you should be ready to go. But other than that the food came out promptly and was beyond amazing“
“This place has been on my list for a while, I have driven by so many times and it always catches my eye. I am *so* glad I stopped by, I officially have a new go-to lunch spot! There's seating inside and outside, the food is so dang flavorful (I could go for more of their toum anytime), and the portions are perfect. I can't recommend this place enough!“

“I went to El Dorado for my birthday dinner with my friends We did wine tasting at WALT only 1 min walking distance from El Dorado and we really liked this course. Wine tasting and dinner at nice restaurant was such a good choice! Inside of the restaurant is very spacious and cozy. Only one thing, the grilled salmon which we ordered along with risotto didn't come out at the first time, the our server realized and brought to our table later. Except that, the food was very tasty and we really liked the atmosphere of the restaurant. I'm the person who especially love the Sonoma vibe and the restaurant definitely made me feel I'm in the nice and cozy town.“
“We walked in for a wine tasting and Millie made us feel like VIPs! Will definitely be back and requesting her, amazing service! The venue is absolutely beautiful and historic. Get the wine membership so you get access to their beautiful Bubble Room and private tasting cave rooms--phenomenal. I have been to Napa/Sonoma area multiple times and can't believe this was my first time here. Absolutely beautiful.“

“Plenty of photos to accompany this review. The grounds are beautiful and the service was very attentive. I did not realize there is no dinner service here which surprised me a bit. The lemonade was not the powder kind and the dishes were all excellent except one. Brussel sprouts, the oversize onion rings, Chicken sandwich, Pork sandwich, and salad with shrimp were all very tasty. My question (I do not know the answer for sure so the potential single star beat down did not take place) is around the poke entree. The poke looks very much like the standard fish obtained from restaurant depot. Just like the seaweed salad that most places use from this supplier. I bring this up since the overall quality of the food here was high so I would hope they do not leverage that generic supplier for this dish. All in all, it is a five star establishment.“

“Everything we had was very good. Fried chicken was tender and juicy without being overly oily. Biscuits were amazing! The potato salad, I've had better but it was also good. Menu seems like it changes a lot/frequently, their website is not accurate to what they actually serve now. Probably should update that, I posted pics of the current menu.“
“Great Wine, Fantastic Staff, Beautiful Covered Patio and a great view! This family owned Winery has an amazing story that is THE AMERICAN SUCCESS STORY. This is one of the first wineries to be owned by Mexican American Farm workers that came to the US during WW2 when we had a labor shortage due to the war. The Robledo story is so heart warming that their story is featured in a display in the Smithsonian Institute!“

“Great experience last night at this local Sonoma gem! Smallish menu with lots of starters to share and also some regular size entrees as well. The food was amazing. The service was great and friendly. We had a reservation for later in the evening but we called and they were happy to accommodate our request to come in earlier. I love sitting at the front window when we go with friends or sitting at the bar and watching the chef. Nice ambiance, kind of dark and moody with cool art on the walls. To start, we ordered the buratta. It was delicious. Served with pesto, Calabrian chilies and bread. We also ordered the raw oysters and a green goddess salad. For our mains - 3 of us ordered the boneless beef short ribs served with carrots and mashed potatoes and the other guest ordered the shrimp and grits. Needless to say we cleaned our plates! For dessert, we ordered the butterscotch pit de creme and a hot fudge sundae. I highly recommend this restaurant. Perfect location right on the Sonoma Plaza.“
“Terry did an amazing wine tasting for our group of 4 wine drinkers. He was absolutely excellent! So knowledgeable about the wine and the winemaking process. The Pinot Noir wines at Walt were simply incredible! My faves Gap's Crown, Bob's Ranch, Sierra Mar, Rose' from Pinot Noir, and Rita's Crown. The tasting room was spacious and the atmosphere was wonderful. Terry showed us a short film with aerial views of the vineyards producing the grapes of each wine we tasted. Awesome, just awesome! Add Walt, located off Sonoma Square to your tasting journey.“
“We arrived at the shop an hour prior to closing to celebrate our daughter's birthday who recently turned 21. We met Ori who was jovial and very hospitable. It was our 1st time here so he explained to us that after the wine tasting he will find the right bottle of wine for each of us. Ori started off with asking if we were looking for red, white, or both. Then the next question was if we like dry or fruity wine. We wanted both so he started us off with a bottle of dry white and asked us if we liked it then based on your answer he will let you taste different type of wine from small locally grown winery until he found the right bottle for each of the taster. We went thru the same process with red wines. Even though Ori does not drink wine, but he is very knowledgeable enjoys his job, very lively, fun, patience so it made our wine tasting experience very memorable . If you have never drank wine or does not know what you want to drink, I highly recommend visiting Ori and go thru the process. It will save you tons of money trying to figure out what kind of wine fits your taste. My wife and daughters walked out if their half drunk due to the amount of wine Ori offered to us. Very highly recommend you visit this shop“

“This little cafe was cute. I loved the old fashioned bar stools. It right out of the 50's. I had the cheese burgers that came with fries. It was juicy and the bread was fresh. My friend had the TLB sandwich and clam chowder. The chowder was thick and hit the spot perfectly per my friend. The waitperson was friendly.“
“I always enjoy and appreciate my experience at Anaba. Everyone is so welcoming. Ken helped us out this time and he teaches me something new about wine every time and whenever I reach out to Ben, I get a quick, friendly reply. He is the absolute best wine club manager in wine country! I Love being part of this community!“

“Great service from the staff. The staff were knowledgeable and helpful as I needed a gluten free & dairy free option. The dairy free cheese blend was the best I have ever had.Dietary restrictions: I am gluten free (not celiac) and dairy free. The vegan cheese on the pizza was the best I’ve ever had.“

“Huge recommendation to everyone for Kina’s.We dined at Kinas tonight after having been awol for a while. Wow! Just wow! The food is just great. We all shared the nachos as a family appetizer and the flavors were bursting in every bite.My daughter had the burger and loved it. It was enough that she brought 1/2 home and there were enough fries for the entire family to satisfy our craving.We both had the pozole (just one of 7 soups). The broth had a great mild spice and the soup was surely enough as a meal. They serve a side of chili oil to spice it up if you like.The food selection is great. I struggled to decide between the Fish Tacos and the soup. Plenty of parking. We have a couple of other regular spots around town and honestly, they simply don't match the flavor and quality of the food. Well done!!! We will be back for sure“
“Beautiful stumble after we had girls brunch across the street! Sandra provided some of the sweetest service and helped us drink a lot of wine for less! We got three bottles split between the five of us and only paid about 25 dollars each. Such a steal. The weather was lovely and outdoor seating was cozy. Would definitely recommend this place for their rosé especially and prices!“
“Great experience tasting several different wines with the help of Brent. The atmosphere is low-key, decor is modern but not stuffy. Great location as well! Brent was attentive and very helpful in guiding our selections They offer a wonderful array of wines from sparkling all the way to Petit Verdot. Our favorite was the 2019 Syrah. Wonderful place to visit before or after lunch in Sonoma.“
“Indulging in the exquisite wines at Hawkes Winery was an absolute pleasure. From the moment we stepped through the doors, Omar’s warm hospitality set the tone for a fantastic visit. His passion for the wines and dedication to ensuring we had a fantastic experience was evident in every detail. Each pour revealed layers of complexity and flavor, showcasing the craftsmanship and dedication of the winemaking team. We left feeling not only satisfied but enriched by the knowledge and memories we gained. Without a doubt, Hawkes Winery and Omar deserve a five-star rating for their exceptional service and outstanding wines.“
“We had a fabulous time at this winery! We came as a group of 6 on a rainy Saturday morning in November. We discovered this place because it is in the Priority Wine Pass for 2-for-1 tastings. We were pleasantly surprised to find out they were actually doing free tastings during our visit! Which makes the service we received during our tasting even more appreciated. They are located in a cute shopping complex with other places to explore nearby. We sat inside at a beautiful wooden table with a TV screen showing videos/photos of their vineyard. They also have a covered patio with lots of plants that is really cute! One person in our group is pregnant and could not drink. Our host, Elaine, brought out several non-alcoholic drink options for her free of charge which was so kind--they even poured it into a wine glass for her to feel included! She gave us a sparkling rose to start off our tasting, an addition to the regular tasting menu. We got to choose 4 wines to try from their list of 10 for the flight, we loved that we got to choose which wines were part of our tasting since we all have different preferences! I'm more of a white wine girl and really loved the French Colombard, I purchased a bottle to take home! There were 2 Cabs in their tasting menu, our host encouraged my husband to try the more expensive one and explained why it is better--this was a pleasant surprise for a group that was there doing a free tasting. She even brought out chocolates and a dessert wine for us to have at the end! We ended up getting to taste 6 different wines during this tasting which was amazing. Elaine told us a lot of the history of Meadowcroft and shared details of some events they have at the winery like their wine blending events. She let us see the wine aroma charts and talked with us about different scents and flavors of wine! I'd love to come for one of those events sometime. We felt like Elaine went above and beyond for our service, we had to thank her for such a great experience here by buying several bottles of their wine! Thank you for being one of our favorite wineries of the weekend, I will certainly be back!“
“The wine was delicious and staff were very accommodating. The tasting room is very simple, but a nice focus on history and wine. The price to taste more than fair and have some interesting pinots, with great descriptions. We plan to return during the warmer months to check out their outdoor amenities.“
“Goodness gracious, how have you redeemed yourself Lou's! Amazing, delicious and comforting food! I enjoyed every single bite! I had to take back to work, but man would I have loved to have eaten on-site. I ordered the two-burn with a side of slaw. Such a different take to the coleslaw! Very flavorful fried chicken! Such a great atmosphere, and customer service by the staff! I would LOVE to come back again!“
“The Hanson family can do no wrong in my book, with their scintillating cocktails and their organic vodkas which are harvested, made and bottled in small batches locally in Sonoma, California, they have certainly carved their own niche in the heart of wine country. Credit goes to the entire Hanson family lead by father and CEO Chris and his wife Judy and their kids, Darren, Chris, Alanna and Brandon, who all serve pivotal roles within their distilling empire, which began over a decade ago by turning locally harvested organic grapes into naturally infused vodkas, each with its own distinctive taste and flavor, in addition to single malt whiskey. I have had multiple experiences with Hanson of Sonoma Distillery with their two locations both on the Carneros Highway in Sonoma, and their art gallery on Bridgeway in Sausalito. Enjoy handcrafted cocktails in a spectacular setting for both private special events, where we received a tour from members of the Hanson family themselves, and making reservations for a special vodka tasting with a friend can make for one memorable afternoon. Recently a friend and I were in the area visiting a local winery, and we thought to ourselves would it be possible to walk right in and see if they were not only taking customers for the day and were they serving their signature handcrafted pizzas made out of their special wood-fired grill, which is inside their tasting room. We got their early enough on the weekend afternoon we arrived and after milling about their tasting room, looking around and seeing if any space was available, we were told we could sit on one of the two four seated high top tables. The menu at the Hanson of Sonoma Distillery is separated in "Experiences" which are their vodka and whiskey flights, sometimes paired with caviar and chocolate; their Club Release Cocktails; and their food menu, which ranges everything from oysters sourced locally from Hog Island, salads, and of course their Wood-Fired Pizzas which are only sold from Fridays through Sundays as their chef Ari, who has enjoyed achieving a Michelin star rating, has another full-time chef job to do. Since we came for lunch, and we saw the wood-fire grill burning brightly, my friend and I were committed to sharing a pizza and a couple cocktails. Our tasting room associate Jack recommended their Salsiccia pizza with its spicy sausage, red pepper, red onions, pecorino and San Marzano sauce that sounded too good to ignore. To pair with our pizza, I ordered their Sunshine Splash cocktail which had ginger vodka, white peach puree, lemon and agave, while my friend ordered their Cucumber Drop, But Pretty which had their signature cucumber vodka, fresh lemon, agave, and butterfly pea flower. Our cocktails came out first and they were presented with such flair and brightness as my cocktail was a pink and fizzy delight that reminded me of paloma with a little more pizazz, while my friend's lavender beverage was a surprising delight thanks to the butterfly pea flowers that gave this festive drink its lively color. Then came perhaps the best part of our meal, the pizza, which was a beautifully cooked small size pizza that was so perfectly cooked with some of the best toppings that I have ever enjoyed on a pizza. Chef Ari deserves all of the praise she has earned as the little burned bubbles were cooked to perfection. When combined with a few sips of my cocktail, it was the perfect combination. Our tasting room associate Jack was nice enough to offer us a sip of their signature Bloody Mary, and it was so rich and hearty that after even a small sample one could easily taste it was a meal unto itself. From the pizza to the cocktails Hanson of Sonoma Distillery puts in that extra touch that easily makes you make many more return visits, as they even had a little extra of my friend's Cucumber Drop in his shaker and he graciously gave her a little extra pour. Our total bill was $58.72 with tip and before gratuity which was totally reasonable for the amount of food and cocktails we enjoyed this afternoon. It's nice “

“This food truck is very popular! We got there just in time for the lunch rush. I had and enjoyed the Summer Burrito with beef. The Ranch dressing threw me off, but it was surprisingly pretty good! The service is really fast, too. A lot of people called ahead, very smart. We can't wait to go back.“

“Lovely spot for lunch. The more the merrier as then you can order even more tapas. Everything we had was delicious including jamón serrano, beets, chorizo (courizo), and a delicious sangria. Waitstaff were friendly and attentive. Surprisingly it was easy to hear each other, maybe due to the very high ceilings. Would definitely recommend!“

“We enjoy this restaurant every time we come to Sonoma square. The burgers and pappardelle are great! The service is also quick and friendly. I would say they could work on the ambiance - the placement of food orders is up front which isnt visually pleasing.“
“Nice place! For red wines I looked on Vivino (wine rating website) and the best are Barbera and Montepulciano. Don't get dolcetto, it's kind of watery. Service was a little pushy upon entering forcing us to do wine tasting but not let us select the wines. Lot of the other wines are like 3.9-4.1 stars“
“My husband and I very much enjoyed the Winter Wine Cave tour. Even though it was a rainy, chilly day, our tour guide Bob Bundschu made the experience warm and welcoming. The grounds are gorgeous (even in the off season), the history of the winery is captivating, and the wine is delicious. Thank you for a wonderful experience. Stephanie and Mike“

“In Sonoma it is not real easy to find a restaurant open on Tuesday or Wednesday. Luckily we found Jacob's. This is a small family business. The service and staff are great. The server recommend wines were very good. We ordered bruschetta 4/5, calamari 5/5, and a pizza half Sonoma 5/5 and half ham and pineapple 5/5. The pizza crust is very good.“

“Excellent Mexican food and margaritas at a price the whole family can appreciate. And let me emphasize that the "Top Shelf Margarita" is excellent! It will quench your thirst and stimulate your appetite. We had the enchiladas, which were very tasty and healthy portions. The red and green salsas were delicious too!If you like authentic Mexican food, you won't go wrong here.Also, it was Sunday afternoon at 3 pm, and the place was packed; but no wait to be seated. A sign that this place has been doing it well for a long time.Parking: Large parking lot“

“Very good authentic Indian food. The decor is awesome too. We came and ordered two meals two naans and an appetizer and that was enough to feed 4 people. We loved the taste of everything especially the shrimp. Something to note is that rice does not come with the meals so remember to order it if you want any. Just off of the main square so easy walking and great shopping around if you need to walk off your meal.Vegetarian options: They have great options for vegetarians. I love Indian food and this is a great spot near the town square to get vegetarian food.Parking: This is on a side street from the main square so parking is a little easier to find.“

“The burritos are top-notch. Not the cheapest in town, but you get what you pay for as when I grabbed the bag from the lady at the food truck I couldn't believe how he at they were. Two burritos ended up feeding two people for two meals in the end. Definitely go for the cheese option.“

“Always the best food, service, and hospitality in Sonoma. A couple of recent additions to the menu were out of this world...a trout tartare, and a seared tuna that had the most wonderful light sauce that had a tad bit of heat. Wine list is locally focused and continues to be one of the best in wine country. I've never had an experience here that wasn't outstanding.“
