Catelli's is thirty minute drive from the house, so it's not a spot we frequent, but it sure is well worth it when we do. Our server this evening was a very pleasant woman named Tiffany, and it's more than obvious why she's been here for fourteen years. She had me at "hello." She knows the menu and she had recommendations. This kind of attentive service "everything." Then came the food. Garlic bread, beet salad, chicken parmesan, and steak medallions. All done as they should have been. We'll see ya again soon. Thank you for the experience. read more

Read my review from Sept. 12, 2025, and double it. My wife and I were celebrating our birthdays, which are one week apart. They put a special sign on our table noting that it was just that and everyone was saying happy birthday. I'm 69 years old and usually feel invisible, but this made my day. Cameron once again was our server, and I couldn't have been more delighted. I made sure to tell him what a great time we had last time. When we made plans to visit the Healdsburg, Geyserville area for our celebration, the second thing we did after making hotel reservations was to reserve a table at Catelli's. We knew that was going to be the shining star, and it was. Unlike another Italian restaurant we visited a couple days later (see my review if you're interested), Cameron spent time with us, as he did with all his guests. Everyone there was in for an experience and Cameron made sure of it. No wonder he's been there 11 years. We started the meal by splitting a Ceasar salad, which they split for us on 2 plates and the plates were loaded with delicious salad. Next, I had the Chicken Parmigiana and it was to die for. The smoked polenta was fantastic. I'll be honest and say that I don't remember what my wife had, but I remember her saying she loved it. After this wonderful dinner, they treated us to a wonderful piece of tiramisu with aa candle. i can't rave enough about this place. I wish we had something even close to where we live. Molto Buono! read more

4.5 stars! We were up in Healdsburg doing some wine tasting and were looking for an early dinner spot nearby. We were advised that since it was a holiday weekend, it would be packed and hard to get a reservation. However, we called around 3pm and were told we could get seated right away outside! A 10 minute drive later, we're indeed seated within 5 mins of arriving. The restaurant is bigger than it looks from the outside. There is a separate covered outdoor area that allowed us to bring our dog. We got the beet salad, which was delicious and much larger than we expected. The hand cut truffle fries, which initially seemed pricey at $12 but were so yummy. We finished them and had no regrets. For our mains, we got the lasagna with meat sauce and Michael's pasta. Both were delicious and portions were generous. I had enough leftover for one smaller meal. Even though we were stuffed, we couldn't say no to sharing their bread crumble for dessert. It took a while to prepare, but was worth the wait! Service was attentive and friendly. Will definitely be added to our rotation whenever we go pick up your wine. read more

When we were in Healdsburg recently, we added Catelli's on our list of restaurants we HAD to dine at due to the amazing reviews and positive feedback from our resort concierge. We asked our resort concierge to make reservations for us a few weeks in advance of our stay and we had no issues getting our reservation for a prime time weekend dinner hour time. Geyserville is a really small town with just a few businesses and there is plenty of parking on the street and in small city lots, you really won't have an issue finding parking here. We arrived about 5-10 minutes before our reservation time and were seated immediately and were warmly greeted by everyone we interacted with and staff also wished me and my husband a happy wedding anniversary as well. The gesture and recognition was greatly appreciated! We ordered a bottle of wine to start (all ranging in price, none of the prices were too crazy and most of the wines were local to the area). We ordered a Caesar Salad to start ($10) and a Minestrone to start ($8) and we shared both of these. For entrees, we ordered the Chicken Parmesan ($29) and the Catelli's Homemade Meat Ravioli ($28). Everything we ordered was so tasty and fresh, and we loved everything we ordered! The service was also all so warm and welcoming and made us feel like we were dining at someone's home. We really enjoyed the entire dining experience and look forward to returning! read more

A consistently good experience at Catelli's. Serving Italian American comfort food in a warm inviting atmosphere. I'd get here more often if it was closer to me. Lunch was terrific. I love that they offer specials in addition to their menu. We ordered a couple starters - meatball sliders & truffle fries (both yum). I ordered the lasagna- absolutely delicious. I'm picky with my lasagna, it's something I like to make at home. This will not disappoint, the sauce is deeply rich with 10 paper thin layers of pasta with ricotta and goat cheese in between. We also ordered the halibut with pesto risotto the fish was flaky with a beautiful crust and the risotto was very flavorful, good pairing. The cocktails are also well made and dressed up cutely. I had the Venetian Spritz. The service is friendly and attentive. They also have patio seating available in warmer weather. A must try. read more

Catelli's - Cheese ravioli. - New American Near Me - Geyserville, California

We were greeted and sat at a window table for two which was a welcomed first visit seating. Our server, Faith, was both attentive and discerning. The Beef Carpaccio was a tad bit salty but the steak was sliced very thinly and the arugula and Parmesano Reggiano were paired very well in proportion. We shared the Richard's Meat Sauce Penne Pasta and the 10 Layer Lasagne. Both were Italian comfort food personified. I was concerned that the lasagne would be overpowered by the goat cheese, but Faith assured me that it lent a creaminess without the funk. She was spot on. The dishes were served piping hot. The place filled up fast. This fine restaurant will def be in our rotation when we visit the area. Domenica Catelli was at the front desk when we checked in. That's the sign of a well-run restaurant. read more

Had 5pm reservations on a Friday and so glad we did because it was FULL by 6. Had some NA rose (because pregnant) the arancini special appetizer, the sourdough bread with sun-dried tomato pesto butter, and then the mushroom cream spaghetti and Michael's pasta. It was all really good, huge portions of pasta, and our waiter was very friendly. They filled our water cups quickly and often. The affogato and passion fruit sorbet were also delicious! read more

Had the opportunity to visit for dinner on a busy Saturday evening. Bread was excellent, carpacio was even better. The food and service were outstanding. Beautiful place to spend an evening. My respects to the family for doing a wonderful job with everything. read more

Craving Italian? Make your way here, yes it's out of the way, all good things are, so get here! We had a girls night out, there was live music outside; drinks all around & a starter with the beef carpaccio. Onto the mains: an order of the spaghetti special, the chicken piccata & the ravioli in meat sauce - all screaming goodness. Lastly dessert - tiramisu, which literally disappeared, I know I had a taste, well I think I had a bite. Service - our server was running, took her a bit to get to us, but once Tiffany got going, she was on point. We ended up closing out the place, we were never rushed out. We'll be back & you all need to find this place. read more

We wanted a kid friendly place where we can find good pasta! While reserving the table for lunch I asked for a seat in the patio and even though it was particularly hot with those big umbrellas and trees around it didn't feel that hot. The indoor seating is also equally unique. We ended up ordering beet salad and pasta with dc sauce for us and the kiddo. We liked both. Specially the portion sizes are big. Tip- they give free ice cream if the kid can finish their dish Unfortunately we had to take a to go but it was still yummy the next day. It definitely high up in our list when we visit the wine county next time. read more

Amazing. Every aspect of it, just amazing. From the outside this place looks very unassuming, step in and its well decorated with bar and reception area right up front. The brick exterior walls and the wood bar and flooring make for a classic rustic feel and looks right at home in North Wine Country. The other dining areas are equally classy but it's not until you go outside that you get the full picture. It opens up to a BEAUTIFUL outdoor garden with a marble & tiled bar, tiled seating area all framed by greenery. Once you sit down and take it all in with your favorite drink you are treated to a delicious Italian cuisine. I went with a large lunch party and was treated with a sausage penne in a tomato cream sauce. It wasn't too creamy and the sausage had a real nice spice to it, it was wonderfully executed. We also had a cheese lasagna which was unique compared to the lasagna's that I've had and made in the past but was still delicious. One thing that was interesting is that the party I was with has several food restrictions but that didn't stop the kitchen from bringing out Gluten Free garlic bread, Vegan and vegetarian pasta dishes for our food-sensitive friends. Lastly, and I cant state this enough, the service was EXCELLENT. Our server was patient with our large group of particular eaters, took pictures of all of us, kept the drinks rolling out and had plenty of support to keep us all fed and happy. I live 90 minutes away and I would have NO PROBLEM coming back and I will definitely recommend Catelli's to friends and family. read more

Food: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Stopped by Catelli's after a long day of wine tasting. Our wine connoisseur at Blue Rock Winery actually recommended us this place. He said told us Guy Fieri went to this restaurant. Service was great at this restaurant. Vibes were there. I wish we knew about the outdoor patio, we saw it on the way out. It looked so pretty, I wish we sat there. Truffle Fries: 5/5 Honestly hands down the best truffle fries i've ever had. The addition of chili pepper gave the fries a little kick. Definitely help elevate it! 10 Layer Lasagna: 5/5 This was really good, I would love to go back for this dish. Catelli's Homemade Meat Ravioli w/ Domenica's Sauce: 5/5 This is what Guy Fieri ordered. LOVED IT. Sauce was not to heavy which was good because the Meat Ravioli was very hearty. Catelli's Homemade Meat Ravioli w/ Mushroom's Sauce: 4/5 Mushroom sauce was really creamy, packed with mushrooms but I though the Domenica's Sauce tasted better with the raviolis. Spaghetti & Clams: 4/5 The clams where surprisingly quite fatty! Penne with Domenica's Sauce: 4/5 Flavorful but light at the same time. Garlic Bread: 4/5 Normal. Garlic and Butter was not spread evenly Tiramisu: 4/5 It was alright. read more

This place comes off as a Local Treasure. Everyone in here were locals. It has a hometown vibe. Clean, presentable but not Hipster. There is a bar and a separate dining room. The service was the same. Served by a local who was a bonafide adult. He knew the menu and made good suggestions. We had a drink special. Followed by Charcuterie platter **** The mains were huge. A beet salad and the homemade raviolis with mushroom sauce Yum. Desserts are also great here read more

What a fabulous place to dine. Firstly, the service is excellent, attentive but not pushy. We had a table inside and the ambiance is so cool and comforting, but outside is equally great especially on a warm day. Now the food, firstly a lovely selection of dishes and I was bummed the special sea bass for the day had sold out and so went for the cheese ravioli and their spicy red sauce. Just delicious. We had couple of burrata boards (one gluten free) and they were awesome as were the truffle fries. A couple folks had the ten layer lasagne as well. A couple desserts and espresso and the dinner was a delight. Oh, and the cocktails were so well made and balanced. Highly recommend and cannot wait to return. They do have a full gluten free menu. read more

I've gone to Catelli's multiple times when visiting my family in Sonoma County and it's overall been a good experience. The service is impeccable, and the ice cream seasonal berry dessert is honestly the reason I keep coming back. Some dishes can be a hit or miss, or feel forgettable, but the ambiance of the outdoor seating with the checkered flooring is beautiful. read more

Catelli's is one of those institutional places a community has that locals love and tourists love more. The food offered is Italian fare done with all local ingredients. We started out of the gate by ordering three of the four salads for the table; the Basil Caesar, the Beet, and the Kale Salad. While the Caesar and the Beet were good, the Kale Salad was exceptional! I would highly recommend the Kale salad to start. I ordered Michael's Pasta as my main while my wife had the spaghetti with clams (with red sauce). Both were delicious and there was an ample serving of it. My sister-in-law ordered the Chicken Parm, which I will order next time, because that was outstanding. The service staff are friendly, as a whole. If you're in the vicinity of Geyserville, Catelli's is a must dine experience. Just a tip, outdoor seating is great, but be warned that there are a lot of flies and yellow jackets that'll hover your direction throughout the meal. read more

Yes the food is some of the best we've ever had, but that is even improved upon by the friendly, happy vibe of the place. We loved it! read more

Catelli's - Wonderful Dinner! - New American Near Me - Geyserville, California

When researching local eateries for a stay in Geyserville, Catelli's kept popping up. Not surprising in such a tiny town. It is one of very few options on the one lane main Main Street. I decided to watch some YouTube reviews and learned that it takes 24 hours to make the lasagna & the same care goes into the homemade raviolis. With that type of passion it has to be good. Those dishes did not disappoint. This is unlike any typical American lasagna. As noted, it is comprised of multiple, paper thin pasta layers that are deliciously delicate and tender. A must try. The ravioli's are also excellent and the fact that you can choose to split sauces was a highlight. Since we chose meat sauce for the cheese lasagna, we opted for the homemade marinara and garlic butter split. I preferred the homemade marinara while my daughter's fave was the creamy garlic butter. Very typical of our usual pasta taste preferences. The flavors were nicely balanced for the delicate raviolis. These dishes are not "chefy" or re-imagined by fusion or atypical ingredients. These are very simple Italian classics that are elevated by their attention to detail. We finished the meal with a classic tiramisu that feeds two. It was also very good. Like the food, the ambience of the interior is simple but elegant. The outdoor patio (reserved for an event) looks beautiful. The service and vibe is casual, friendly & efficient. If you are nearby, or even a few towns over, enjoying wine country I would highly recommend venturing over to give it a try and stick to their tried & true specialties. read more

Came into town for an anniversary and phoned in for a reservation. Only available was 8pm on Saturday. The associate on the phone was very nice and polite. When we arrived it was difficult to find a parking spot so may need to factor in some time for looking for a spot. It was also difficult to locate the hostess station to check in for our reservation. After getting seated, our server came over brought us water and then disappeared. (Later found out there was a small medical emergency) ambiance is very chill with dim lighting. Many of the seating options have a common bench around the edges of the room with tables situated in different configurations (tables for 2 and 4). Our server, Tiffany, was really nice and attentive. Ordered the kale salad and the 10 layer lasagna. (Lots of recommendations from Yelp and locals!). The kale salad was delicious and enough to share. The lasagna had a very rich sauce and lots of cheese. Catellis allows one bottle brought in and served without a cork fee and free bread with special butter!!! - a local told us about these perks : ) Definitely coming back here again!! read more

We had dinner reservations for 6:30 and we only had to wait just a few minutes. The place is lovely and it was fun. We talked to people on both sides of us. We were up here to pick up Wine and decided to stay locally and eat locally. Our server name was Rosie and she was very good and so was all the staff keeping our water glasses filled. I had an old-fashioned and it was just OK. Little too sweet and a bunch of ice cubes. It just wasn't quite right. My husband had a glass of red wine. We shared a small beet salad, which was delicious and the small serve great for both of us. My husband had the Michael special said it was very good and I had chicken Parmesan. This was also very good made with polenta which I normally don't like, but it was fine. Of course we have leftovers. I wanted a dessert and I got the ice cream with caramel and pecans on top. I had them omit the whipped cream and it was perfect. The prices are very reasonable for what you get. If I live nearby, I'd be back as there were a lot of people there that I could tell came quite often. read more

Catelli's is one of my favorite restaurants. It's been around for many years and has 5 star reviews that tells you something. We usually go every year for my birthday with my family (little kids included) and they are always very welcoming and accommodating to big parties and kids. The food never disappoints. It's consistently amazing. The drinks and wine are also amazing. The service is great. We went last night to celebrate my birthday and our server was Kevin. I just have to say he was absolutely amazing. Very attentive and prompt. He was a fun , kind , welcoming server and you are lucky if you get him as your server. We all got a variety of things , chicken piccata , Michaels pasta (absolutely phenomenal), raviolis, linguini and clams. We got garlic bread and arancini for appetizers. Every single thing was phenomenal. The kids got kids pasta off the kids menu with a scoop of ice cream for dessert. The desserts were also amazing, lemon tart, bread pudding, tiramisu (as big as your head!!!) If you haven't been to Catelli's, go asap. If you have , you know what I'm talking about!!! I always can't wait to go back. It's also the perfect spot for big parties , they have a huge beautiful outdoor area. read more

Again, another excellent experience! Many GF option and they are very accommodating to those with celiac, as they even offer GF garlic bread! Yummy for anyone. I'm a ravioli lover and they accommodated my request for a mix of meat and cheese raviolis, with some of the best meat sauc I've ever had. Considering it was the evening before Valentines, we got in right away, and enjoyed the peacefulness of the cabanas with heaters. Catelli's Rex never disappoints! read more

Five stars might be a tad generous...but the fact is I always have a great time at Catelli's. Lots of groups and special occasions come to this spot in Geyserville. Food is dependably good...service is super attentive...owners are great. Reservations are almost always necessary. Their lasagna is a point of pride...and quite good. Outdoors is a great option on warm summer evenings. Parking can be a bit dicey...so give yourself a few minutes to find a (legal) spot on the street. read more

We were wine tasting at Ferrari - carano winery and was craving some Italian foods and boy ! This place did not disappoint.

Catelli's - Spaghetti and Clams :)) - New American Near Me - Geyserville, California

Heard many great things about this spot but unfortunately it didn't really live up to the hype. Catelli's is a family Italian known for their lasagna and other pasta dishes. We started with a few cocktails. Ordered a spicy margarita - over the top spicy and not well balanced. Beef carpaccio was just ok, not particularly flavorful. Then we split the chicken parm, lasagna with the meat sauce and ravioli with Dominicas sauce. The best of the bunch was the lasagna- pasta is very thin and was very tasty. Overall, decent spot but overhyped. read more

My husband had been hearing about Catelli's having a "top 10 lasagna in the US", so we had to check it out. It's located in quaint Geyserville, a wine country town with a two block downtown. Reservations on Resy only had 4:30 pm and 7:15 pm on a Sunday night so we took the later and arrived around 6:30 in case they could seat us earlier. We decided to have a cocktail at the historic bar while we waited. We wanted to sit outside though they said we could have been seated inside right away. When I peeked at the outdoor patio, it was half empty! Needless to say, we were seated within 15 minutes outside on the black and white checkered patio under shady umbrellas. We started with the garlic bread ($10.50) sourdough with house-made garlic butter and cheesy parmesan. It was soft and buttery and delicious. We both ordered the famous lasagna ($28), which had 10 thin layers of hand-made pasta, organic tomato sauce, ricotta and herb cheese filling. The sauce was meaty with a different spice to it but very good. Not top 10 (that goes to Gold Mirror in SF) but tasty nonetheless. We took about half home as it was filling. Our waitress was very nice but not too attentive and we had to ask the bus boy for a second glass of wine. There were a few large parties she was attending to but bartenders just sitting around outside. They have a good wine list with most glasses about $13-15 each. I would opt for the outdoor patio again and they have music on Thursdays during the summer. We will definitely return and try some other specials. read more

I've been a diner at Catelli's for 73 years, that I can remember. There have been ups and downs, mostly ups over the years. For the last year or so, it's been better than ever. Thankfully, many of Virginia's recipes are still on the menu, like the minestrone that never fails me. Today a friend and I enjoyed another wonderful lunch experience. Outstanding food! Chicken Parmesan, a clam and prawn sauté with the best garlic bread in Sonoma County. Affogato? Yes, please. As always, the room was filled with folks enjoying the holiday atmosphere. The staff, once again, was outstanding. Victory is a thoughtful and accomplished server. Today we met June. She's lively, and fun, and professional. Both are invaluable additions to the staff. Thank you! read more

Most excellent spot. Wow. My wife and I loved it for our 10th anniversary. The tiramisu was to die for.

Wow wow wow - what a delightful find in Geyserville! One of the best Italian restaurants I've visited and I should be glad I live too far to eat here every night to avoid massive weight gain. My favorite item was actually the truffle fries - they are hand cut, perfectly crispy on outside - sprinkled with herbs, drizzled with truffle oil and given a splash a lemon for freshness. The famous lasagna lived up to big expectations- you can have it vegetarian or with meat sauce, which is nice. All pastas were perfectly cooked and accompanied. I didn't love the special menu item - spring pea edamame - it's cooked/eaten exactly like edamame but to me, spring pea should stay fresh and I didn't love the use of older spring pea shells as edamame. They have a wonderful, pet friendly outdoor patio (in the back) - that is covered, shaded and provides heat lamps in the evening. It is surrounded by well groomed garden of plants and herbs. Our entire experience was very pleasant - including the restrooms, which were large individual rooms - very clean and comfortable. Even the baby changing station had emergency diapers provided. Service was attentive and friendly. I loved the restaurant provides chilled share plates for cold dishes like salads and warmed share plates for hot dishes like pastas. Superb attention to detail here. We found free street parking in front but there is also a small lot nearby. Tip - they do provide bread service on request, the basil tomato sweet butter with warm bread should not be missed. read more

We had a an amazing time at Catelli's. This was my second time here and both times were delicious. Last time we shared the kale salad, lasagna and mushroom pasta. That kale salad is my favorite, I still think about it. the lasagna was incredible. Flavorful and somehow light with those thin noodles. Hubs enjoyed his mushroom pasta and I was almost going to get it on my second visit but had too much pasta that week so I went steak. It was so tender and rich, I had no regrets. We started with the burrata and prosciutto app, with and extra side of bread. I don't why most restaurants don't give enough bread to eat the whole dish. Man the bread was so good, people were eating it unadorned, so still not enough bread lol. Is there really ever enough bread though? Any how, my friends had desserts and they were delightful, I was just so full. Overall service was spot on, attentive and friendly. We felt well taken care of and it was a busy Saturday night so that says a lot. Oh I would be remiss if I did not mention the lovely dirty martini that kicked off dinner. Hit all the right notes. Can't wait to go back! read more
