Progressive American cooking rooted in Sonoma County

Legendary Chef Charlie Palmer seamlessly blends his Progressive American style with the rich bounty of Sonoma County, along with the most expansive, exclusively Sonoma County wine list in the world. Here you’ll discover the freshest, hyper-seasonal ingredients that are grown and raised by farms up the road, and wines by vintners you visited earlier in the day. We’re proud to call Healdsburg home.

Choose from our three-course nightly dinner menu, indulge in Chef Shane’s ever-changing six-course tasting menu, or enjoy our celebrated Thursday night Sonoma Neighbor menu. For a more casual evening, dine at Dry Creek Kitchen’s bar or savor light bites and hearty burgers at Hotel Healdsburg’s lobby Spirit Bar. Welcome to our kitchen, where we celebrate the essence of Sonoma County, every day.

Our party of six all enjoyed the prix fixe menu. Every dish was executed with precision and each better than the one before. My favorite: the scallops! The scallops were cooked to perfection and the sauce …absolutely memorable. Truly. DCK delivered on all fronts; the service was stellar - attentive and charming without being intrusive. Bravo Ladies and Gents!!

Thursday nights are great at DCK. The restaurant and its food have really been soaring since Shane took over as chef. As always, the service was great. The restaurant has a beautiful ambiance, very thoughtful lighting and furnishings. Great place for a special night or to just splurge and eat great food.

I had an excellent experience at this place! The ambiance is warm and inviting, and the staff are incredibly polite, organized, and attentive to every detail. Their efficiency and friendliness really stood out. The food was absolutely incredible—high quality, generous portions, and simply delicious. No words can truly do it justice, so I highly recommend visiting and experiencing it for yourself.
