We…read moreswung by after lunch on a gorgeous late-summer Sunday, and the small storefront had a line out the door, but it moved fast and efficiently, so we weren't waiting long. The shop itself is tiny, with just a couple of small tables outside, so plan on taking your treats to go rather than settling in. We went with the flight, which is a fantastic way to sample the menu: 3-4 flavors for $10 (as of August '26), which is a great value considering a single half scoop runs $4.50 on its own. It was plenty to split between two adults and a kid. We tried the peanut butter M&M, a-lota-choco-lata, salted caramel, and butter brickle (a butter pecan base loaded with toffee brittle) and all four were excellent. They also offer sorbet and vegan options, so there's something for everyone in the group. For the price and quality, this is a great choice if you're wandering the plaza and want something sweet.

Plenty of street parking available, but during busy times, it is also very walkable from anywhere around Sonoma Square. The interior is giving modern ice cream shop, with a quaint space, large display, and exposed brick. Not a ton of seating, so best to grab and continue your walk around the Square. Staff were delightful when we visited. I had the coffee ice cream, which was absolutely delicious. A great sweet finisher to our stay in Sonoma.

The flavor I remember is called Its A Goodie -- french vanilla with peanut butter and fudge chips. Yup, still awesome! Ok sweeter than my adult palette likes now but hella nostalgic. I paired it with coconut. Not a flavor I remember from back in the day but also an excellent taste. Again, adult me would like a little less sugar and perhaps the crunchiness of the coconut but I'm being picky. Mississippi mud pie seemed like something to try and I'm glad I asked for a taste. Coffee ice cream with a fudge swirl and crushed cookies. Both workers seemed happy and offered lots of suggestions. There's one table inside and a few more outside. They also have some tourist items like tshirts. When I got home, I researched Double Rainbow. There are a few stores left and you can order online (min 8 pints). Just ignore the saturated fat...

My shaved ice was absolutely delicious and I loved their flavor options so I would definitely come back next time we're in Sonoma.

It's located in a small courtyard off the main part of the Sonoma plaza. Once you walk in the door, the aroma of freshly cooking mini donuts makes your mouth water, even if you just had ice cream. DH succumbed to the temptation and ordered a small batch. They serve them in a paper cone, and add toppings of your choice. I sampled one and it was really good because of the freshness, and the additional flavors added on top. A fork and napkins are definitely needed. Our toddler granddaughter was excited to try the donuts, and had the fruity jam-smeared face to prove that she liked them very much! Deducting a star because the ordering process seemed confusing, or maybe I was just overwhelmed by the smell of the dough cooking. I dare you to save any - these are for eating fresh right after they're served to you!

Saturday afternoon and I was shocked they didn't have a line being that they are on the Sonoma plaza. Small little place but clean and friendly staff. Lots of toppings to choose from but the donuts were still doughy. Not sure if they are always like this they really needed to be cooked more. We ordered 4 different dozens and we all had the same complaint. If I'm in the area I may give them another try to see if it was a one time thing but I wouldn't go out of my way to make a stop.

It's also a huge perk that she brings an assistant with her and they do all of the cleaning up at the conclusion of the meal. Absolutely recommend without hesitation!!!

Her energy added so much to the evening. She is professional, warm, and made the whole night feel effortless for us so we could focus on celebrating with my grandmother. If you are looking for a private chef who is talented, creative, and a joy to have in your home, I cannot recommend Linda highly enough. She made our family dinner truly unforgettable!

We started by being surprised and delighted with warm fresh baked breads paired with yummy homemade salami. Then we moved to our first course of mixed organic greens with goat cheese mousse, pears and walnuts with a delicious Italian balsamic vinegar. Chef came out and showed us our 2nd course of his fresh handmade agnolotti dal plin (pasta pockets stuffed with pork, beef and veggies in a sage brown butter sauce) before cooking it and, once cooked, grated fresh cheese over it. Our third course was boneless organic chicken stuffed with porcini mushrooms wrapped in pancetta with perfectly cooked carrots and green beans and roasted potatoes. Dessert was a delicious chocolate Italian custard with amaretti biscuits paired with homemade strawberry mint sorbet. Every course was described to us by Chef with tidbits of information about Italy, which was very informative. The service was Michelin star quality, all women were served first and the food was fresh and piping hot. It was clear that Chef is very passionate about his food and the stories behind it. And, my kitchen was even cleaner when they left than it was when they arrived and we didn't have to lift a finger. What an amazing experience!

The service was pretty good, seated fast, pretty attentive with all the tables they had to serve. We ordered a traditional caramel macchiato (it is nothing like a Carmel macchiato that you are thinking of) and a matcha latte. They were pretty but lacking flavor. The Mach was very bitter, but I am sure that's the traditional version in a little bitty shot like glass -not my fave but I was trying to order stuff i wouldn't normally get. ‍ the matcha came in a giant mug, and it wasn't sweet at all and just kinda of plain. For food, we ordered the wagyu steak and eggs. It came with some interesting garlic herby potatoes, a piece of sourdough cut in half, scrambled eggs, 6 slim slices of beef and a little jam of some sort. We also asked for a side of their house made chili crunch. The steak was mediocre, the potatoes tasted a little weird. We enjoyed the bread and eggs the most. Maybe we just ordered the wrong things. I'd come back and try other items. It is a very cute location.
