Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Healdsburg

I’m local and I am totally spoiled by the amazing food and wine scene in Sonoma County. It had been 6 months since I’d been here and so glad I returned! This is The Best Sonoma County Rooftop Experience! From the ambiance, to the service and food- beat value in Sonoma county! We went on a chilly January evening and sat on the rooftop, cozy bench with pillows, fire tables all around, amazing food and service! Can’t wait to go back.

Once again, our food, service and experience was exceptional. We sat in a booth in the bar area where the entire team worked so well together and were so very courteous.

We have dined at Rooftop, Sushi by Scratch and the bar. First time in the dining room with friends visiting from Liverpool. Great sharing menu with tasty creative dishes, great service by Yvette, and fun wine wall tasting.

We have been going to Little Saint since they first opened -the first time. It has slowly transitioned into its own groove with the most delectable menu items and a completely engaging crew. Little Saint invites everyone in with unmatched beauty, everywhere you look, a lovely and comfortable space. We went for Saturday brunch. It was busy and filled up shortly after noon. The atmosphere is one that embodies comfort and nature, and the team there does a wonderful job managing the flow. We sat at the bar, and our bartender was awesome. My husband got the "blackout", a tequila drink that was spectacular. They make all their own mixes, and they are creative and passionate about their work and it shows. I had an Irish coffee since it was gloomy and rainy outside. It was completely fabulous. Little Saint's whipped creams and other creams are so beautifully constructed, beyond delicious, and my guess is most would not be able to guess plant based! We ordered several items, and as usual, were completely blown away. The salad was so beautiful we didn't want to eat it...we did, though, and it was perfection on the palate: fresh, carefully prepared, and just the right amount of dressing-more of the French style versus saturated! We also got the Tennessee mushrooms and breakfast tacos: both dishes danced in our mouths. The food here tastes like love; love of nature, love of service, love of food that is truly good for the body, planet, and soul!! Finally, we even had dessert. One affogato (as good, if not better, as any I've had in Italy) and one pear tart. Both were good enough to cause a pause so one's mouth could adjust to the flavors. We stopped and got a couple of provisions, rebel cheese and salami, to enjoy during the week. I am so grateful we have such an innovative and scrumptious place in Sonoma County. My only regret is that it isn't in Santa Rosa. Thank you, Little Saint. Keep innovating, cooking, and creating.

I always eat out on Christmas Day as I am usually a single diner. I normally don't go in for buffets, but this Cristmas there were very few options, so I decided to take a chance here. The first thing I noticed is that the restaurant was much nicer than was pictured in their post. I've been a cook and know that hot buffets are not easy to maintain without overcooking the food. I was pleasantly surprised; everything was perfect. There was a good selection of food and I was happy with them. The charred Brussles sprouts were especially good and the roast beef was RARE, like I like it. Great service. I am VERY HAPPY with my Christmas Day dinner.
