Sonoma Grille and Bar

Great atmosphere, great art, great service, and SO much potential with the food. TASTE before you plate! Risotto for both dishes needed salt and more acid for the risotto with lamb shank. This might be a community thing since salt and pepper are already on the table. I find that most restaurants with fine dining chefs ONLY provide these when asked since it changes the flavor of the dish. Lamb was nice and tender and the mushrooms and prawns were perfectly cooked. Lack of seasoning can make these seem bland.

Attentive, friendly, and timely service. Our server was just the kind of professional you can appreciate.The salmon on the salmon salad was perfect. Just the right portion for lunch and well seasoned. Since we're easing back into the dining scene, this was one of the good experiences we're looking for. Great job!

We went here for lunch before heading up to Healdsburg for a scheduled tasting. We chose to stop in Sonoma because the traffic from the East Bay on the 101 near Healdsburg was a mess. So after searching online we decided to try this place. The outdoor space was beautiful and very welcoming. Our server was very friendly and attentive. My husband ordered the pear salad. It was fine. I ordered the Caesar with chicken. While the chicken was flavorful, it was really dry. And the presentation was extremely poor. Chicken pieces just scattered over the plate. Seriously?! Especially when you’re paying $21.00! I know it’s Sonoma so sadly everything is way over the top expensive, but at least put some effort into the presentation and cookery. Overall, with so many other good restaurants around, we likely won’t return. Sorry.

Had a really enjoyable dinner here. Got the saffron pappardelle with tiger prawns, and the fried calamari as a starter, both delicious. Fantastic chocolate torte for dessert. Plenty of outdoor tables in a lovely patio area. Service was super-friendly and attentive. Right off the main plaza, across the street from the Sonoma Bungalows, with lots of parking. Highly recommended!
