This weekend was a completely different time for both the wife and I. We decided to make our way to…read moreSanta Rosa this weekend because we wanted to visit the Snoopy Museum and let me tell you the Museum definitely didnt disappoint. After getting hungry the wife and I decided to walk across the street to grab a bite to eat and we had heard about this place being here but wasn't sure what to expect. We walked in and it felt cold to us but wasn't sure why. Come to find out that they have an Ice Skating Rink in the same building with the cafe. So we sat down and ordered. My wife got a Italian Sandwich and I got a Pulled Pork sandwich. Both of the sandwiches came with fries and when my wife brought our drinks to us, they were in Snoopy cups. She also had a buzzer with her to let us know when our food was ready. After about 5 to 10 minutes, the buzzer lit up like a Christmas tree and I went go and grab our food. As soon as I saw the tray my eyes got really big because my Pulled Pork Sandwich looked HUGE, but it was just sitting on some fries. After taking a bite the sandwich wasn't as big as I had thought but it was very tasty and warm. My wife said her Italian Sandwich was great but it could have used some more Italian dressing. After we got done eating, we walked into the Skating Rink where the temperature dropped more. But having to see people skate around on the Ice was very entertaining and I cant wait to come back to Santa Rosa again because when I do I'm coming to eat here.

Exactly what you'd expect at a kid- friendly museum cafe adjacent to an ice rink…read more The food on offer is very typical concession stand fare, and maybe a bit spendier than you'd like, but the Warm Puppy Cafe is a charming and easy place to grab a snack post-practice or post-visit. Very comforting menu and fun rink-side views. You can check out Charles Schultz's original table and even host small gatherings in the party room. Tuna melt and fries ($16) had nicely buttered and griddled sourdough, American cheese, and tuna salad (I asked to add tomato and lettuce) and crisp, fresh fries. Our iced hot chocolates ($7) were very sweet, but nice to sip on for a hot August afternoon.

It definitely gives the place a unique atmosphere. Unfortunately, I wasn't a huge fan of the food. I'm not picky when it comes to food, but I was a little disappointed with some of the options. A few of the dishes just didn't look very appetizing to me, so there were definitely things I ended up passing on. The desserts were probably my favorite part. The chocolate covered cheesecake was absolutely delicious and definitely worth trying. Overall, I really liked the atmosphere and the decor, but I just wish I enjoyed the food as much as I enjoyed the look of the place. Also, the service was great. The workers are very attentive in cleaning and helping out the customers

That little touch made the crabs even better. The fresh, hot wonton soup was another favorite, perfect for warming up between plates. The buffet was refilled pretty well, so there was always something coming out. I also enjoyed the watermelon and cheesecake for dessert. Now, not everything was perfect. Some dishes were a little bland and greasy, and unfortunately, the sushi was way too cold almost like it had just come out of the freezer. Definitely not my favorite part. But for the price, it's affordable and gives you plenty of options to nibble, sample, and discover different Chinese dishes without breaking the bank. Would I come back? For those fried crabs and wonton soup... absolutely! If you love buffets, like trying a little bit of everything, and want something easy on the wallet, this is definitely a place worth giving a try!

We reviewed many menus on our walk about and decided to circle back to KINSmoke! Whitney, our server, was the best! Very hospitable, disarming, and charming. The ambiance was super casual but clean and tidy, exactly the kind of vibe we were looking for. The food was excellent! Together we split a steak sando and fries, plenty filling for the both of us. We're looking forward to trying more menu items the next time we are visiting. If we lived a bit closer, this would definitely be our local haunt! Highly recommend giving this gem a shot, we will be singing their praises for a while

It took a good 15-20 minutes for the food to come out but it was good! Great place for big groups. This little downtown area is so cute and quaint. Brisket: 4/5 the soft pieces were tasty and then there were some tough pieces which weren't as good. Overall good flavor. Pork shoulder pulled pork: 3/5 very fatty and not as much flavor as the brisket. Chicken: 3/5 a bit too dry for me but others in my party enjoyed it. Pork belly burnt ends: 4/5 good but fatty and sweet. Horseradish slaw: 4/5 could use more horseradish flavor but refreshing as is. Cornbread: 5/5 excellent! And that side butter was sooo good! Liked the crispy edges. Mac n cheese: 3/5 ok shell shaped Baked beans: not a fan or baked beans so no comment. Potato salad: 3/5 ok nothing memorable about this. Fries: 4/5 good Sweet potato tater tots: 5/5 these were better than the fries.

It's a bit noisy inside due to the small room but tolerable, they also have some tables set up outside which is great for people watching. Sadly the Egg Benedict was sold out by the time we went at about 12pm. We got Croissant egg sandwich and ménage a trois (with buttermilk pancake and sausage), house orange juice and salted caramel latte. Food was delicious, and the perfect portion: the croissant sandwich was light, fresh and had the perfect amount of seasoning. The buttermilk pancake literally melts in your mouth. Orange juice is with pulp and sweet. And the coffee was a warm/hot with the perfect amount of sweetness with no burnt taste. Will definitely try to go earlier for the Egg Benedict and try their other bakery items.

A lot of really nice boutique type shops with fine products and a brand new record store, Paradise Found which is quite fantastic. It is also an oasis with goo-gobs of creative talent and cool people you will find. Ranchers, farmers, construction workers, normal hard-working folk, authors, athletes, chefs, sound engineers,sculptors,craftspeople, photographers, and inventors. A full cast of interesting characters. The home of the world's ugly dog contest (I tend to stay away during this event to avoid becoming a contestant) and wrist wrestling championship. Once famous for being the egg capital of the world. I once heard this conversation in a bar, "Hey Steve remember when we got paid to inseminate chickens when we were on acid?" Steve: "Those were chickens?" Sam Shepard would've had a field day here. Some newer buildings made to look old with crafted Styrofoam façades. You get the feeling you're on a movie set, which it has been on several occasions. I lived here for a number of years, a bit of a Peyton Place aura. Nudge nudge, wink wink, say no more. Some of my favorite people I've met in the last 30 years hale from here. And, a disappropriated amount have left this earth too soon. One of the best foodie destinations north of the Golden Gate Bridge. Superb coffee shops and bakeries, some award-winning. So, back in 1999 I took a wrong turn off the freeway and discovered Petaluma and the first place I went was the "Tea Room" and it's still pretty much as awesome as it was then. A real nice vibe, nicely decorated with some incredible pastries to include the orange cranberry scone as I recall, sold out today. My breakfast today was quite good with the walnut toast, and a huge portion of very large potatoes that could've been cut into smaller pieces and maybe I only needed one third of the portion. Dem tatters were 'nuff for four people. Great atmosphere, nice friendly staff, and a very pleasant ambience. There's mirrored signage that says TEA mounted high on the wall across from one another so as to appear as if it were a reflection. I personally can also see the word EAT in there every time I glance at it. I was told years ago that it came from an old Texaco gas station sign. It makes sense, check it out. On Western Avenue. I used to tell folks it's across from the pink Catholic Church rectory. That's been painted to a rather unattractive conservation brown. A lot of nice outdoor seating and cool shops nearby, check out next-door thrift shop and the ever remarkable Petaluma market around the corner, with superb produce display! Famous for cheese, wine, cider, breweries and happy cows! If you're coming from the south cut over through Fairfax to Olema and take the back road up to Petaluma which is a stunning drive!

The burger is $18, a la carte, fries extra. It's described as "served medium with a touch of pink" but mine was gray throughout. The fontina cheese is fancier than American, but it melts away and disappears. Have you seen The Menu with Ralph Fiennes? Then you'll know what I'm talking about. Not a big deal to get the doneness wrong, but for the price and given the description, I'd hoped they would have nailed it. Fries were great though, ambiance is lovely. Most reviewers like it more than I do, maybe I'm wrong here

"She's the sunflower of nature's seeds A girl that some men…read moreonly find in their dreams" (Stevie Wonder) Deep in the heart of the California Wine Country, our wine tour let us off for a lunch break to grab a meal somewhere among the various eateries in Sonoma Plaza. We were attracted to the Sunflower Caffé's distinctive yellow and white awning and sign, so we walked in and it was a terrific choice. Their menu is full of locally sourced farm fresh ingredients. I saw pastries, egg dishes, sandwiches, soups, and salads on the food menu. The beverage menu is excellent with a full coffee-espresso bar, mimosas, wine, beer, cider, smoothies, Kombucha, plus wellness and mushroom shots. We each went for one of their Half Sandwich Combos served with a cup of Cream Tomato Soup & Dressed Greens. I had a Spiced Chickpea & Yam Wrap vegan (sunflower-spiced chickpeas, herb-roasted yam, red onion cucumber, vine-ripened tomato, coconut yogurt tzatziki ($19) and my wife has a Sunflower Grilled Cheese (Vella dry-jack butter, cheddar, fontina, sliced sourdough) also for $19. The plates of food were gorgeous, and my half a sandwich was filling. We both gave the creamy tomato soup high marks. Service from Yaya was cheerful, professional and friendly, and as requested she seated us near a charging plug to bring my phone back to life. We were extremely happy with the Sunrise Caffé. PRO TIP The restrooms are outdoors behind the restaurant. On the way over, I saw they had a gorgeous outdoor seating area with bright yellow chairs and a patio cover. That would have been a nice place to eat had we known about it.

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.

Unfortunately, the server proceeded to argue wit me, saying it's always been flat and cooked well. Needless to say I would not have ordered it again yesterday if that was true! Service was terrible until the shift change, then it was amazing! The cocktails were great! I'll have to think long and hard before going back.

I explained to her that I was single-sided deaf, and after that, she always approached the table from my good side! The drinks and food were delicious!! For our drinks, I had a White Sangria Spritz filled with diced mango, which was extremely refreshing, and my daughter had a glass of Zin that paired very well with the tasty and crisp (on the edges) Focaccia bread. We then split a yummy Caesar Salad with fresh dressing, and for our entrees, I chose the Chicken Marsala and my daughter the Lamb Ragu - both were savory & rich, and perfectly prepared & displayed!! We topped off the meal with two decadent desserts - Banana Apple Bread Pudding and Cannoli, and walked away feeling so satisfied and happy with our choice to dine at Eddie's - we'll definitely be back!!!
