I just DoorDashed a rice bowl with tofu and all I can say, without cursing (good cursing) is," Wow!" That was fantastic and the vibe when I went inside to pick it up was great. Seriously, that bowl of food was tasty, ample, and healthy...exactly how I wish I'd eat every single day. This was one of my favorite meals from a restaurant in a very long time. I am absolutely appreciative. Great value, too. I'm sad that I'm just passing through town! read more

Allikai Eatery - Yum! - Peruvian Near Me - Sonoma, California

Innovative, fun kitchen eatery featuring many vegetarian alternative options. From banh mi sandwiches, to bowls, to soup and ceviche there is enough for everyone. I tried the tofu bowl and vegetarian sandwich - both were extremely saucy and flavorful. The tofu bowl came with many pickled vegetables that felt like treasures to find. The sandwich was filling and held its weight. Love the kind staff here as well. read more

I ate here once and thought the place had some appeal, with fresh interesting food. I got a sandwich to go, for $16. It was a chicken sandwich, pretty tasty but with a dry bun. I don't see thinking this a good deal until that sandwich is $8. I went by today, but opted out when I realized that even a modest lunch there with a drink will be like $30-35. I'd rather go to the Swiss Hotel for lunch for around the same price as this to-go experience, and young people can't afford it at all. It's a carry out! You guys are too expensive to ever catch on as a lunch place in this town. You need a better lunch offering that average people can afford. Soup wont cut it without affordable sandwiches. $20 is too much for an average size sandwich. read more

Allikai Eatery - I can't afford lunch here - Peruvian Near Me - Sonoma, California

We've always loved Allikai's sandwiches so we decided to try other dishes for a catered lunch that we picked up. All I can say is we've introduced eight other folks to Allikai that cannot wait to have another meal prepared by them. The charcuterie board was not only the prettiest one we've ever seen but it was absolutely delicious. Same with their signature potato salad and shitake ceviche (both unique and outstanding). Of course we also had to have their sandwiches - either the veggie or the butifarra. Our guests were delighted, surprised and very, very full! Allikai is a "must" choice of food in our city of Sonoma! read more

I had the pleasure of working with Daniel to cater my party, and the experience was seamless from start to finish. He offered a great range of options and helped curate a menu that fit our preferences, dietary needs, and budget. Everything arrived right on time, and the personalized menus and placards were such a thoughtful touch. The food was fresh, vibrant, and absolutely delicious- highly recommend the mortadella sandwich, chicken sandwich, potato causa, and carrot salad! Daniel made the entire process easy, and my guests and I were beyond impressed. Would absolutely order again! read more

Amazing food here! Brought my dad, who was visiting from out of town, neither of us have had Peruvian style food before so this was a first! My dad ordered the special, Allikai BLT & I ordered a rice bowl & added pork belly. We were both left speechless by how good the food was so much flavor! Service is friendly & it's cool that you can see into the kitchen as they're prepping your food. The inside is very clean & fresh unfortunately they are unable to seat anyone inside for dine in but they have a cute picnic table outside where you can enjoy your food. Definitely a must try! read more

Fantastic service and great vegan/vegetarian options. Small hole-in-the-wall spot, perfect to get takeout and picnic in Sonoma square. Just wish they were open on weekends, too! read more

Excellent cerviche, Peruvian style! Helpful staff who clearly explain everything on their menu.

Awesome food and we just did a tasting at Donum Estate, where the chef owner of Allikai is in charge of the menu! Awesome pairing! Anyway, we had lunch from Allikai last week and my sisters loved the mortadella sandwiches...the bread is the bomb diggity! read more

Apparently, my initial catering inquiry went into spam for some reason, but once that was resolved, communication with Daniel was great. I was hosting a ~80+ person event and wanted to provide a variety of sandwiches for lunch. Daniel came up with a menu of 4 different sandwiches, two that were able to accommodate vegetarian and vegan options. Being a meat lover, I did actually like the sound of the vegan option. They were great about individually labeling each type, separating them out in different containers to be picked up, plus included a couple of menus with listed ingredients that I was able to post up for my guests. The pricing was great and it probably speaks volumes that we had zero sandwiches leftover. The next time I have an event in Sonoma (hopefully next year) I'll definitely look forward to working with Allikai again. read more

In town for work and this place seemed perfect for a quick bite. Young guy greeted me and offered to answer questions regarding the menu. I went with the popular Butifarra sandwich and it was sooo good. Only downside, no restrooms. Was able to enjoy their picnic area outside. read more

Don't let this place fool you. Stop and go in. I was taken aback when I entered as it didn't seem like a typical eatery. However, the staff present greeted us right away and answered all my questions regarding what they offered there. They were very pleasant, professional, and welcoming. I ordered the Butifarra Sandwich and it was spectacular! Everything about that sandwich was perfection. Buen provecho! read more

Outstanding food! Options for vegetarian and meat lovers. Great service. Different from the ordinary! You will love it!

Welcoming team that offers creative, fresh, delicious and made to order dishes. You order inside and can eat out on a picnic table or take food to go. The interior has display cases of their desserts and cured meats and a fridge with really good grab and go creations to pick up if you are going on a wine tour or just want something to eat at the plaza or at work or around town at a park. I've had their rice bowl, chilcano soup, soba noodle soup, seasonal salad with egg and tofu, ceviche mixto, veggie sandwich, various empanadas (that sell out!), charcuterie, cheese plate, bread pudding and cookies and every time I am excited to return!!! They are a local gem and I really recommend that you try Allikai when you are in Sonoma :) read more

I love it here and get a rice bowl almost every week. The sandwiches--delicious, dessert -amazing and moist, & the service is friendly and quick. I love the fermented veggies on the rice bowl, I mean where else can you get takeout with delicious fermented veggies!? Great to pick up spot when headed to a park, home or anywhere! read more

Finally stopped in and picked up food to complement my fish tonight. Ordered the rice bowl with pickled vegetables, was so perfectly delicious. Had two cups of a wonderful soup, to share. superb! read more

So happy to see Sonoma got a Peruvian eatery instead of the usual Mexican restaurant or tasting room! They offer sandwiches, salads, soup, rice bowls, ceviche, charcuterie plates, and desserts. Walking in you are greeted by a wall of bright colors and fun Peruvian music. It's clean, open and you can see the kitchen staff working their magic thru the 2 wall entries. A kind gentleman welcomed me in, explained the menu and said they cure their meats in house. Out of the 2 sandwiches I was considering, he suggested the Butifarra. He did not steer me wrong, it was phenomenal!!! Served on a fresh ciabatta roll, smeared with a delicious garlicky aoli, a heap of fresh thinly sliced ham (jamon) that will melt in your mouth, pickled shallots and lettuce. Every bite was a party in my mouth! They have a bench out front to enjoy your lunch, he mentioned they'd be adding more w umbrellas which will be nice to traffic watch and enjoy the fresh air. Prices are reasonable and staff is very friendly! Looking forward to my next visit! read more

I wanted to try a new local place with my mom and some of the other places that came well recommended were closed on Tuesday so luckily for us Allikai was open. We were greeted by the staff on arrival and guided through the choices. I got a mortadella sandwich and my mom got a bowl of rice and veggies. Everything tasted amazing, and tasted super fresh. My sandwich was perfect, the bread was beyond the quality I'm used to getting, and the combo of sandwich ingredients were perfectly balanced. Ingredients in my mom's rice and veggies with miso sauce, as well as my sandwich included fermented items which added a unique and healthy dimension to our meal. We also tried the gluten free banana cake, which was moist and delicious. I would highly recommend this place. The prices are fair for the quality, service was lovely and quick, and it's very conveniently located in the midst of some of the most popular businesses in Sonoma. This restaurant is a great option for anyone looking to eat healthy Peruvian cuisine, locally. Thanks Allikai! read more

Allikai Eatery - Mortadella sandwich, veggies and rice bowl, baked good. - Peruvian Near Me - Sonoma, California

Don't let the unassuming facade fool you, this restaurant is fantastic. The bread is absolutely fantastic. Their home cured mortadella superb. Everything about this place is incredible! read more

Absolutely delicious and layered with flavor. My wife and I have eaten here two days in a row and ordered nearly everything on the menu. The Chilcano Soup can be featured at a 3 Michelin star restaurant. Acid, salt, fat, umami... how!??!! Deeper flavor than the Mariana Trench. All of the sandwiches are wonderful. I prefer the Butifarra and Mortadella. The BREAD is crispy on the outside and soft to bite. Heck yeah Love the crudité and the banana cake is moist! Feeling lucky this is nearby and will eat here often! read more

We got the ceviche and the BLT. The ceviche was refreshing, especially because it was a hot day. The ceviche ingredients tasted super fresh. The ingredients going into the BLT was also super fresh and yummy read more

So happy to see that Allikai Eatery was on Doordash. Working from home, sometimes you just want to order out for lunch, so glad I did today from Allikai. Was I pleasantly amazed! I had the mortadella sandwich, which I later learned they make the mortadella in-house from scratch. The freshness of the bread, the robust flavors of the mortadella and the pickled fennel all add to the unique taste this sandwich presents. I also treated myself to the banana cake. AMAZING!! and healthy too. You can tell Allikai put the "love" into the food they create. Thank you for opening in Sonoma, we needed a place like this. I will make an in-person sometime soon, but for now, so glad you joined up with Doordash. read more

I've been curious about what kind of food was served at this restaurant since it opened... When I saw some of the pictures of the sandwiches I knew I had to try it! I walked in and a very helpful young man directed me to the menu board and help me pick out my vegetarian sandwich! I was concerned that it might be too spicy for me... But it was full of flavor and although there was a little spice, it did not overpower anything but just gave it depth! I can't wait to try another sandwich and see if they're all this good! read more

Wonderful food and people. Got the Butafarra sandwich and the bread was beautifully crispy but not too hard, and the red pepper aioli really took it up a notch. Thank you read more

This is a great spot to pick up a sandwich to go. The staff are welcoming and the food was a nice surprise. I'm not familiar with Peruvian food, but everything here tastes fresh. The fermented veggies are a nice touch and their ciabatta bread is the best. I look forward to trying a rice bowl. read more

Amazing sandwiches. Great service. Everything house made. Beautiful charcuterie plates. Can't wait to go o back and try some of the other offerings. And, they cater. read more

First off besides having amazing offerings of Peruvian influences by an amazing chef Fiorella Butron who just left the as Executive Chef/Culinary Director/General Manager of Sonoma's Edge Restaurant to start and follow her own passion of owning and operating her own eatery and catering. As can be seen in other posts here there is nothing that isn't worth the journey to try. Her culinary skills and knowledge of spices allowing multiple flavors to be presented to the customers. You will not find a better seasonal affair from the distinctive freshness of the sandwiches on such fresh and inviting bread to her soup, salads, and bowls. Please do not forget to grab a desert....another one of Fiorella's extraordinary skills. If you are going in for 'grab-and-go' and have an idea of what you want phone in the order but going in and digesting the menu to allow you to interact with the talented staff to perhaps help in navigating what you didn't realize you might also want is also a major plus. You won't be disappointed....Allikai has my vote for a must visit! I do often as you might already guessed! read more

This food is delicious, healthy, fresh and affordable. There are excellent vegetarian options, and personal service. I ordered a salad and a rice bowl, and the flavors and textures were delightful. I love this place and definitely will be going back. read more
