Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Sonoma

I am from NY and grew up eating Jewish deli food. Grossmans is a find that lives up to my NY standards!! It is truly excellent food, they make their own bagels pita and challah which is the best I have found in the Bay Area. We love the latkes and smoked salmon and cream cheese and pickles are top notch. The staff, the cozy atmosphere, and the park outside do not disappoint!!

Amazing restaurant you must visit around Sonoma downtown! Defensively coming back again

We arrived early for our reservation, which was no problem, and were offered to try the enclosed, outdoor, heated patio. It was beautiful with warm lighting and not a hint of the December chill outside. My daughter and I shared the fig/arugula salad, duck confit and flounder. We expected two tiny duck legs but they were leg quarters with more meat than we could eat due to the duck’s richness. A good sharing dish because of that. The salted fig carmel trifle is a must if you’re a chocolate mousse fan. The Puebla de Sonoma cocktail was good but if you don’t care for a sweet drink, ask for less agave. I was worried about spiciness and asked for less heat but the regular amount would have been fine and actually better. Our server was attentive and friendly and the entire staff was on top of things. Our water never got below half and empty dishes were swept away quickly, but not in a rushed, hurry up way. My receipt says my server was ‘August’s A’ and she was wonderful.

Seven of us had dinner before going to the Trancendence Theater Company show at the Sebastiani Theater. The service, ambiance, and buzz in the restaurant was outstanding. Wide range of menu items to suit everyone's taste, and a great wine list too. Service was friendly, professional, and attentive. Everyone agreed the pastas were excellent, as well as the lamb. Always a great experience - highly recommended for great food combined with a great atmosphere!

We had an awesome experience at Wit & Wisdom. We were in town for a Christmas party & had some extra time to eat the day before. We had the best server named Theresa. The meals were delicious. If we are ever back in the area we will definitely return. Thank you.
