Progressive American cooking rooted in Sonoma County

Legendary Chef Charlie Palmer seamlessly blends his Progressive American style with the rich bounty of Sonoma County, along with the most expansive, exclusively Sonoma County wine list in the world. Here you’ll discover the freshest, hyper-seasonal ingredients that are grown and raised by farms up the road, and wines by vintners you visited earlier in the day. We’re proud to call Healdsburg home.

Choose from our three-course nightly dinner menu, indulge in Chef Shane’s ever-changing six-course tasting menu, or enjoy our celebrated Thursday night Sonoma Neighbor menu. For a more casual evening, dine at Dry Creek Kitchen’s bar or savor light bites and hearty burgers at Hotel Healdsburg’s lobby Spirit Bar. Welcome to our kitchen, where we celebrate the essence of Sonoma County, every day.

    Truly hit or miss, which is really sad because we came here for this chef’s work. The place was extremely loud and busy, some dishes were excellent while others just got a passing grade, and the service was just ok. I would not be surprised if there was pressure from owners for the chef to do more with less or lower quality materials. The portions were large but we would’ve appreciated better quality in smaller portions. Would not return and spend $$$$ for this same meal. Something big would have to change.

    They accommodated us wanting to come in early and we wonderful through the whole meal. Matt was an excellent server. He listened, stressed that we weren’t in a rush, and did his best to make sure we felt like we were his only table, which we weren’t. I would come here again in a heartbeat.

    Eat here now for a perfect meal/dining experience. Top marks on all cylinders. Comfortably elegant setting, familiar yet modern dishes and ample, quality service. Memorable offerings were the Salmon Crispy Pie Tee, Scallops with citrus, and the chocolate peanut butter bar; delish!

    The food and service were excellent as always!!! The staff remember us when we come in even to the fact that I drink iced tea and brought a glass without being asked.

    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!
