    Food was very good - waiter none attentive - only a few tables to wait and he took forever to take our order. Then disappeared. Chatted with friends at another table most of the time. Had to ask for water refills, never came back. Hostess refilled our water glasses.

    I loved everything about the experience, although I was surprised to learn I was charged $4 for 3 small pieces of bread. I believe it that should have been included with my meal. Renee

    This is a must stop for dinner when in Sonoma, just off the square. An amazing hidden Gem. From the outside ambience to the amazing food. The Double Bone Pork Chop , Saffron Pasta , chicken, braise short ribs - all was so so so good and for dessert the chocolate cake.
