    Terrific! Felt very comfortable as if we were at home in an intimate setting. The food was tasty and each dish had pleasant surprises like the fried oyster in the carpaccio. Service was top notch never needed to ask for water. For sure we will be back for the other menu and dessert items we didn’t try. Thank you.

    Everything about The Depot was wonderful!! We were seated immediately for our 5:30 reservation, and our server was very attentive from the beginning. From our drink order through the appetizer and finally the main courses, our server was very attentive and personable. The timing of courses couldn’t have been better, we were able to visit amongst ourselves and the items presentation was seamless and quick. The quality of the appetizer (calamari) and entrees was excellent! I can’t say enough good things about our experience at The Depot in Sonoma! I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone! 5 Stars!!
