Unicorn cocktail
Lori M.

Visited this restaurant from a friends recommendation. It's a neat looking restaurant long galley style with a second level for extra seating. From the little table we sat at, we turned the chairs so we could face the kitchen area where the chefs were making fresh pizzas instead of staring at the bar tender with her chest hanging out (put them away, you're at work) or stare at the doorway. We weren't overly hungry but wanted to try it. The prices were pretty steep for a beer $12, and the cocktail was VERY expensive $19 after tax. Hubs decided not to order the beer but insisted I try a fancy drink so I decided on the unicorn after recommendation from our waitress. The drink was pleasantly good, not too sour or too sweet, however definitely not worth the price. Then we decided on a small bites, skillet prawns. The wait wasn't too long. We took a bite each and we were so confused at the odd flavor. It tasted like latex gloves and cleaner. Hubs tried a a second small bite of another one and spit it out. We probably shouldn't have stopped. Our waitress was really nice about it and offered to get us a new one or something else or a dessert, but we declined. She ended up taking it off the bill. Maybe skip the drinks and order a pizza.

Food Menu

Impressive bar, good selections of food and drinks. Friendly staff and casual atmosphere. The hot oyster and chicken meatballs were good. Next time will definitely try their pizzas and big eats.

Inside

It definitely has an old-time speakeasy vibe. Lots of wood with burgundy accents. I ordered the heirloom tomato salad with burratta, which was huge. Followed by a gluten-free pizza with pepperoni and double mushrooms. To drink I tried the Treasure Troll mocktail, which was refreshing. My server was friendly and attentive. Everything was very fresh and well prepared.

Bread
Becca B.

We got bread to share for the table. A French dip with French fries. And the. A shrimp dish that had a bit too much sauce and I think Christy rice under it. But wasn't very crispy due to the sauce amount.

We love Jackson's Bar and Oven! Service is always great, the food is plated beautifully and of course delicious! The cocktails are unique and yummy in our tummy! In my opinion, the only downside is the price... they are a little spending, so we don't dine here as much as we would like too, but we love it when we do!!

Margarita Pizza
Thomas M.

A+++++++++++++++++++++++++!!! A million thanks to Jackson's for making it so easy for me to host a 90th birthday lunch party yesterday for a group of 7 of us. I appreciated their putting us in the perfect table on the first floor (no steps) and heartily applaud the SPECTACULAR service that we received from our server, Jada. The entire staff (hostesses, bartenders, etc.) were awesome. The food was incredible. The margarita pizza is right up there with the best pizza I have ever had in my life (photo attached) -- it was simply outstanding! It was a very special day and the team at Jackson's made it that way. I wish I could give Jackson's Bar and Oven million stars. BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lamb Stuffed Flatbread

Great portions! Visited after being reccomended this restaurant by the Sonoma Hyatt hotel and was very surprised by the large portions. The waiter also said that the meal can divided for two people before it is taken to the table. Everything was delicious, fries were really good too! If will be in the area, will be back as the menu had lots of good sounding choices.

I realize I have not been to Jackson's in quite some time and after a little hike, ww were ready for a cocktail and a bite. The ambience is super nice with tasteful decor and a good vibe. Both the server and the hostess were incredibly friendly and efficient. My friend and I both enjoyed a fabulous cocktail that was super refreshing. The beet citrus salad was spot on. I don't think I've ever had one quite so good. The downfall was the gluten-free pizza unfortunately. The crust just wasn't very good. It's unfortunate that places charge extra to have a gluten-free crust. I'd come back for the beet salad and cocktail anytime, but I'll pass on the pizza.

Beautiful spot on the main drag in Santa Rosa, a wonderful little city in wine country. There's a busy bar and tables on the main floor but we were seated up in the loft. Beautiful table, great servers, friendly, attentive service. For appetizers we tried the Mac and cheese, chicken piccata meatballs, garlic shrimp and broiled oysters. All the food disappeared quickly. There is a large wine and beverage list so we enjoyed a few drinks. Dinners ranged from Italian beef dips, to salads, truffle oil fries and more. The food was freshly made, presented beautifully and very flavorful. This is a great spot but I would recommend reservations. Love it and will return. Very pleasant staff.

The awesome red wine
Dave M.

Met up with dear friends Joe and Roanna. We were seated upstairs which was nice cause I could hear across the table. I ordered the New York steak, medium rare, Roanna and Katie had steak sandwiches, Joe enjoyed a margherita pizza. Everyone enjoyed their selections. Food was properly cooked and artfully plated. Joe selected a wonderful red wine - Carlisle Zinfandel - that paired very nicely with my steak. We delighted in the JACKSON'S BEIGNETS for dessert. I had a beautifully crafted cappuccino.

Stopped in for a quick drink and had a great time. Super attentive and speedy service. Great drink menu with mocktail options. Would be happy to come back and try out more of their menu.

Big Bowl of Wood Oven Roasted Mussels
Chelsea C.

It was a dark rainy Sunday....we were able to get a table right away. We even got a parking spot not too far. The server was friendly, patient and helpful. The inside was comfortable and not too loud. We ordered cocktails, mussels, and the brick chicken w/ orecchiette. The cocktail went down easily. The mussels were perfectly cooked, and their chorizo sausage was meaty and flavorful. The thin sliced fennel added a nice depth to the sauce. They grill their bread so it was a perfect way to soak it up. I was really looking forward to the orecchiette, but it was my least favorite of the three items. It wasn't bad, but a $38 chicken pasta should be much more than we received. The chicken was not juicy, but the skin was crispy. The orecchiette with garlic cream sauce was less than amazing.

Mac & Cheese
Jen S.

Got the Mac and cheese, mussels, and pasta bolognese. The Mac and cheese was good, could've done without the bacon in it (it didn't really add to it). The mussels were delicious and a hefty portion. The bolognese pretty good, it is under the bigger eats section but wasn't that big of a portion size. Service was okay. Wasn't too busy when we went but had to ask to get our water filled each time and would have to call the server over if we needed something. The inside was dimly lit the bathroom could've been better.

What's the latest you can walk in and place an order?

Are there gluten-free options besides pizza?

I'm sure any of the salads are or can easily be made gluten-free, and at least the burgers could be served in lettuce wraps. Especially if you ask nicely before or at the start of your visit, and tip graciously when your requests are fulfilled. 😇😉

Great bar! Great drinks! Awesome staff!! Always looks clean and we love the game room…read more As a regular, the way they handle unruly and out of pocket customers, continues to impress me! I was sitting at the bar on Thursday when a customer, Rainey, called the bartender a b*#ch, cursing her out. The bartender explained nicely the girl's token couldn't be used for a $40 Clase Azul Margarita, giving her several other tequila options I might add, and the young girl flipped out in her & called her names. The bartender definitely kept her cool, never even raising her voice. The way people treat bartenders sometimes is just so terrible! Don't go out if you can't act appropriately. Anyway this place is great and I keep going back. Thanks for the yummy drinks Mockingbird!

The name Mockingbird Bar & Chill immediately caught my attention, so had to check it out…read more I stopped in on a Friday right when they opened, so the place was quiet. I ordered one drink, and it was pretty good. The only downside was the service. The bartender wasn't very personable, and I didn't really feel welcomed. To be fair, it was the start of the shift, so maybe they were just getting settled in or simply having an off day. We all have those days, so I'm trying not to judge the experience too harshly. I usually like to give places a second chance because one visit doesn't always tell the whole story. The drink showed promise, and I'm hopeful my next visit will leave a better overall impression. Looking forward to seeing how the experience compares the second time around.

Everything was perfect! This place is a gem!…read more The burger was one of the best fancy burgers I've had in a long time. It looked like they ground their meat in house, but I forgot to ask so don't quote me on that. It was cooked a PERFECT medium rare topped with bacon, Cambazola, fig jam and frisse, served on a soft yet sturdy brioche style bun. The shoestring fries were like crack, super addictive, I couldn't stop! The wife had the steak frites, and it might be our new favorite restaurant for that dish. Steak was cooked ABSOLUTELY PERFECTLY!! Fries were out of control good. No notes! Nice craft cocktail menu, short but well curated wines by the glass list, and the bartender had a heavy hand with those pours. Had a few oysters on the half shell as an appetizer, and we split the fried green tomatoes too. Those were topped with fresh shaved corn and a cilantro cream.l.with a few cherry tomatoes for color. So good. The atmosphere is old school speak easy vibe. Classy but casual. It's a small restaurant and the bar is front and center but they have a few tables outside for when the weather is nice. Our server was Sam, and she was the greatest. Hat's off to you for your service, Sam!

We had high hopes but the venue failed in every regard…read more The layout and the decorations are just beautiful, but the functional acoustic atmosphere is horrible, it's almost the worst I've ever been in. There's almost zero damping and no acoustic management whatsoever. It has the appearance of an attractive venue without the functional reality. It was incredibly painful with the voices of all the talking along with the music ringing in our ears. The conversations of people were amplified by the design of the facility to the point where they were competing with the fully amplified '90s band that I heard called joose. In addition, they appear to have no comprehension about how to actually create an appropriate acoustic management system. There are no damping systems, no soft surfaces, it's like they didn't even ask anybody who knows anything about anything about how to do acoustic design. It's entirely appearance based. We will never return here again for anything other than a cocktail or maybe a karaoke event. It was a waste of $20. Per person. We effectively paid $40 for a couple to be acoustically tortured for 2 hours. We kept hoping it would get better but it didn't I thought maybe once more people came in they might help but it didn't help they just got louder. I can't believe that nobody else has complained about this before.

However, these performers just lip sang and walked around collecting tips. Hardly any interaction with the crowd. The '3 course meal' was awful. First course was a small cinnamon bun and mini chocolate crossiant, second course was a tiny portion of french toast casserole and egg frita, and then dessert. It was all sugar- no protein, or fruit. Definitely felt like a rip off.

Our total with drinks (6), mussels and fries, flatbread, asparagus salad, tuna tartare was $180 for the 3 of us. Felt pricey, but I guess it's not surprising considering where we were. Drinks were delicious! Service was great overall, no hovering but attentive enough to not feel forgotten.
