Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Guerneville

A hidden gem! I enjoyed the chef’s pre-fixed dinner menu and everything was fantastic. The presentation of each course was well done and all of it was delicious. It was hard picking a favorite! The service was wonderful too - friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend and will definitely be back.

Spectacular! Fantastic food and service. Great spot for a special date night out. My partner and I had the chef’s choice tasting menu and it was amazing. Several standouts were the day boat scallop, duck, and bread, butter and jam dessert. If heading to Healdsburg definitely include Valette in your plans.

Had a very lovely evening, the mood is nice, dim lighting, with a great ambience .. food is really good, the catfish was excellent.. highly recommend The fried chicken is what put this place on the map, try it with their house made hot sauce.. Great service, everyone is super friendly, you need to make a reservation for fast service.. have to shout out the bus staff, especially “Billy” they go over and above to insure the most excellent experience.. two thumbs up

Our server Madison was amazing. Very knowledgeable about the menu and so pleasant and engaging. Food was delicious and drinks were great! This was my first time there and I will absolutely be back. Thanks for a great Valentine’s Day!

Last year & this, our experience @ Dry Creek Kitchen was the highlight of our trip to Healdsburg (& the wine, of course). The ambiance is lovely, Chris and the whole staff are beyond compare, the corkage policy is extremely reasonable (especially if you bring a Sonoma wine!), not that one needs to bring wine, & the menu is flawlessly executed/everything is delicious — love that the $75 3-course dinner is not prix fixe. Rather, you get to choose from bountiful options in all 3 categories. And, if you’re like us, you have to add a canapé of crispy pork belly bites on biscuits w/maple glaze. Can’t wait until our return next year!
