They didn't have a lot of bakery treats out on display, but the ones that they did looked fresh and enticing. I ended up ordering the Santa Fe Panini. I would recommend this one. It has a good chipotle sauce with avocado and chicken. I give four stars though because I feel like the price was pretty steep for what I got. My total for the Panini came out to around $17. Coming from the Bay Area I'm used to high prices, but it was a bit too much.

This place is bursting with bold, authentic flavors and offers a true gastronomic experience. We ordered the Tapas Trio, Traditional Cochinita Pibil, and the Cioppino, and every dish was outstanding. The appetizer was packed with flavor, the pibil was beautifully seasoned and tender, and the cioppino had a rich, layered broth that was delicious without being overpowering. The kids had the Alfredo and cheeseburger which they both devoured. On top of the incredible food, our server was genuinely warm and attentive, which made the experience even better.

OMG!!!!!!! I just discovered this incredible Columbian empanada spot at the Cotati farmers market!…read moreI got one of each on the menu - so 6 total because there were 2 veggie options, one with cheese and one without, ate 3 of them and went back to get 2 more for breakfast!! Really reasonable price for the amount of awesome you get to eat! Also came with two sauces, a creamy cilantro and a vinegary sauce that had a little spice to it. The young guy that helped me also told me how to eat them the Columbian way by spooning the sauce on instead of dipping! Also came with a few bites of salad which was a nice fresh element. The empanada dough is made of corn so it's technically gluten free for you sensitive folk and is perfectly fried to a crisp! This might be the longest Yelp review I have written but seriously I am already wishing I would have gotten more!!! Tonight was the last Cotati market but they assured me I can find them at the Santa Rosa Farmer's Lane market on Saturdays! You can follow them on Instagram @mamazara.empanadas to find out where else you can find them or you can hire them to cater your next event!! Im telling you everyone will be glad you did!! https://www.mamazaraempanadas.com/ call, email, DM or go find them right now. -And buy twice as many as you think you need! Seriously the best thing i have eaten in awhile and last weekend I had brisket smash burgers and birria ramen! Literally trying to plan a party now so i can get empanadas catered!

Vinoma never disappoints!…read more Absolutely delicious empanadas, and the business owners are always friendly and give great service. It's a little bit of a funky location, but don't let that dissuade you. They have their own building that shares the lot with the gas station. You can order online beforehand or at the window. There are some tables outside to wait at, or you can just wait in your car. They bring your empanadas out as quick as possible, and always add a beautiful little flower to your order. Vinoma is truly a hidden gem, and I'm so glad the Rohnert Park area has a delicious local food option like this. Definitely check them out if you want a delicious meal!

We stayed for the weekend in the Sonoma area during the winter break holiday recently. There was a…read morepopular tapas spot close to our hotel so we wanted to grab picnic food to go before heading out to the wineries. We arrived at Vinoma on a Sunday afternoon. The Argentinian restaurant is located next to a Shell Gas station in a nice small plaza in Rohnert Park. Parking is accessible in the medium size parking lot. We were not able to go inside the restaurant as there was a sign in the front to ring the bell for someone to come to the door and take your order. It was different but the staff were friendly and helpful. Once you order, you wait in your car and they bring your food to you. There are a few tables for dine in on the patio. We ordered a creamy corn empanada, traditional beef empanada, plum & bacon empanada, al pastor empanada, and a bacon egg & cheese empanada. Everything was fresh, authentic, and delicious. My favorite empanadas were the traditional beef and al pastor. Along with the flavorful meat filling, I enjoyed the crispy flaky crust as well. The sauce and pica de gallo provided went well with the empanadas. The presentation of the empanadas in the box was appealing and delightful. I appreciated the little menu in the box to inform you what you ordered. The little flower was a nice touch. Overall we enjoyed our experience at Vinoma. It was nice to try some legit empanadas from an Argentinian restaurant. Price point was fair. Glad we were able to run into this gem in wine country. We hope to be back next time we are in the area.

The food is consistently excellent and elevated, the staff remains professional while still keeping the home-y feel of the restaurant, and I could drink Carlos' passion fruit vinaigrette as an aperitif. We did the chef's tasting menu with wine pairings and loved every course. The wines were also well curated and matched to the food. We have come here many times, but this was the first chef's menu we tried from him, and we were impressed. Highest recommendation!!!

We ordered a bunch of smaller plates to eat, and one was more delicious than the next! Our server was super knowledgeable about the menu and both nice and accommodating. The place is small but we sat outside, and it was a really lovely evening. We shared the Ensalada, which was really refreshing. The Brussels sprouts (Bruselas con camote) are NOT to be missed! We also really enjoyed the pastelitos de papa. We then split the Cachapa (with serrano ham, because, ham), and the Asado. Our group was 3 people, and we left VERY full, but not overwhelmed. My only regret is we didn't have room for dessert -- definitely next time!

We also got the oatmeal chocolate chip cookie and we were THRILLED because we both love this combo and can never find it in a bakery. Highly recommend.

We decided to order a breakfast burrito, mango danish and blueberry danish. I was a little shocked the breakfast burrito was prepared and then just microwaved. Probably the most low maintenance burrito I've had. It's more on the flat side too and not your proper burrito shape. The burrito itself tasted good though and there was even a cheese pull! The pastries were decent and had a good flakiness. I will say I think I was given a peach danish and not a mango one because it literally tasted and looked like peaches even though we saw the danish picked from the mango danish tray. We also sat outside which I already know is really cute during the warmer season, but during the colder season it's a bit cold and dark.

I've done both take out and dine in, most visits there's been lots of staff but it takes a while to get anyone's attention. Which ever route you take dining here, give yourself time, you'll be waiting a while before you get your freshly made to order food. The food is always good though, so I would say it's worth the wait. While this spot isn't my first pick for dinner options in the area it's still a strongish contender for the food quality only. Overall, 7/10. Bring your patience.

Highly Recommend - MUST TRY! Had lunch at Oxbow Public Market in Napa and came across El Porteño…read more They have both savory and sweet empanadas. We were looking for dessert - something not too sweet. And this was the perfect spot! We had a manzana empanada and a banana y dulce de leche empanada. Both were good - they were warm and freshly baked. I will definitely be back to try some of their savory empanadas. Looking through their website, they also have a location at the Ferry Building and in SOMA. They can also be found at various Farmer's Markets around the Bay Area. I had no idea! They even have catering and delivery options via Uber Eats, Door Dash, or directly from El Porteno's themselves. This is a great business to patronize - unique and delicious. You will not be disappointed!

Love the empanadas from El Porteño! Absolutely Delicious! I…read moremake it a point to stop by every time I am at Oxbow Market in Napa. My usuals are their camarones (shrimp), the espinacas y panceta (spinach bacon and parmesan), and the champiñones (mushroom). The empanadas are served hot, flaky, and contain with a generous amount of filing. If they are out of a particular one at the window, just ask, they will bake a frozen one, which may take 5-7 minutes. I've also tried their carne and pollo empanadas which are also great but the three mentioned above are my favorites. I love that they put the empanadas in labeled sleeves so you actually know which is which! I've been to places that just stamp a letter on the crust, and half the time you can't even read it. This way is much easier especially when you're ordering a bunch of them like me. They are easy to eat on the go or grab a table at either end of Oxbow Market. Don't forget to get a side of their Chimmichuri sauce for $1.50. The sauce really completes the empanada! The staff is always friendly, helpful, and happy to make recommendations if you can't decide. You can't go wrong with any of them as I've tried them all the last few years.

Service was on the slower side, but the small shack was completely packed, so it was understandable.
