I ordered the cold ramen salad because it was a warm day, and it was really exceptional. It has nicely chopped vegetables and everything was prepared perfectly. I also ordered the Japanese pickles appetizer and it was presented exquisitely. They have a variety of teas, including tea flights, and also serve bubble teas. I got one of the tea cocktails that had mango and shoju that was really good. Service is very gracious. We sat in their nice outdoor covered area. The shop inside had a lot of interesting looking tea-related items. They had some lovely looking tea sets and pots. Also some Japanese snacks!

Really fresh and delicious sushi from this hidden Healdsburg gem that's been around for 20 years…read more Small mom and pop place behind the Westamerica Bank just off Piper & Healdsburg Avenue. We had the sushi: Healdsburg roll (spicy tuna,avocado with escolar, tuna on top, with unagi sauce) for $15.95, Utah roll (prawn tempura, crab, tuna with sauce) for $19.95 and Marilyn Monroe roll (prawn tempura, crab, scallop with sauce) which had a pink sauce for $19.95. Huge portions with 9 pieces each which melt in your mouth. One star off as they use imitation crab. Large Sapporo for $7.95 must be the best deal in town (like 3 beer equivalent). They also have a wide assortment of sake which we didn't try. Last time I got the prawn and vegetable tempura for $17.95 and it was huge! Came with rice and dipping sauce. Yummy. They have a cute sushi bar with seats and it's air conditioned inside, with a pet friendly patio with fountain outside. There are 4 Japanese restaurants in town and though a lot of folks got take out here, it's not crowded even the Saturday night of July 4th holiday. Recommend you give them a try!

The Experience: The…read moreback outside area with it's own bar is very nice. For most of the year this should be where you ask for. The Food and Drinks: We "rate" Tapas outfits by ordering Patatas Bravas. Crisp on outside, larger pieces and host and moist inside, one of the bests we have experienced - highly recommended. Others we had were: - Coroquetas: Creamy chicken Croquetas came piping hot and definitely creamy. This is my favorite whether I am in Japanese restaurants or in Tapas places. - Steamed Clams: Great and good serving. Ask for breads to go with this one as you WILL HAVE TO DIP the breads in the broth! Price/ Value: Very reasonable for this class of restaurant for glasses of wine going $14 range, and many cocktail options and many Tapas items not even hitting $20 that means you can order a variety of things. The serving volume was very satisfying sharing between two of us. This will be our new "go to" places when we are back in here which is a lot!

Bravas Bar has gluten free items (and gluten free items prepared in shared fryers) plainly marked on their menu, which makes me feel extra safe and taken care of. We sat outside at the bar, which was very cozy. You kinda feel like you're in someone's backyard more so than a typical restaurant patio, which I love. Our bartender was attentive and cool and clearly knew the food and drink menu very well. She seemed like someone who genuinely enjoys the menu and the space, which adds to the whole comfort factor. Overall I had a great time, and the food was so fresh and truly good. High quality ingredients showcased very simply. I just thought some of the dishes bordered on bland. Maybe it's my DFW palate (less fresh food haha) and salt addiction, but I found several of the plates we ordered to be lacking in salt and/or acid. The roasted mushrooms, heirloom tomatoes, steamed clams, and Butifarra sausage were all lovely but underwhelming in flavor to me. The broth with the clams was tasty and the clams were perfect, loved the cava and herbs, but a bit grey in color and a little too sandy for my taste. I'd come back! I want to try the paella that they're known for. And I love their atmosphere so much!

Everything on the menu here is "creative" meaning that things here can be hit or miss depending on your particular taste. We tried four different cocktails and all were excellent. Especially enjoyed the 'clarified' margarita. Had a couple of excellent salads to start. However, the pepperoni pizza was a bit of a miss being served with honey and a very different type of pepperoni. A matter of taste I guess. Daniel was our server and provided excellent service, recommendations and conversation.

The food is incredible, the atmosphere is fun and relaxed, and there's always something that makes you want to come back for more. The Mahi Mahi tacos are a favorite -- fresh, flavorful, and packed with great toppings. I went with the crispy pork belly tacos, which were the perfect balance to the overwhelming amount of fresh seafood on the table. Crispy, rich, savory... exactly what you need when you're going all-in on oysters and seafood. And speaking of oysters, they were fantastic. Fresh, beautifully presented, and absolutely worth ordering. But Willie's is also special to us for another reason. This is where I asked my wife to marry me about six years ago. So coming back here always brings back some pretty damn good memories. Great food, great drinks, great atmosphere, and a place that will always have a special spot in our story. Five stars all day.

Valette is a Healdsburg institution, with its owner chef growing up in the area. I've wanted to try…read morethis place for many years and finally decided to go here on the last night of our two month stay in the summer of 2026. We were only able to get a 5:15 pm reservation on a Saturday night, which was somewhat unusual because the outdoor patio and interior were only about half full. Maybe they allow for walk-ins so I suggest that if you want a later reservation like 7 pm that you try a walk-in instead. It was my husband's 67th birthday, which I indicated on the reservation, and they had a customized menu for him, birthday card, and welcome cocktail of champagne. The service was prompt and very friendly and we started with PEI mussels, served with Costeaux Sourdough Baguette (slightly charred), Poblano Peppers, Roasted Leeks, Heirloom Tomato Broth and Petite Fenne, which was hearty and really delicious ($24). The manager also provided complimentary homemade bread with a black sea salt that you could sprinkle on top, We brought a nice bottle of Robert Young cab and the corkage was $25, which is very reasonable. Husband got the prime Kobe New York steak loin ($63) and was disappointed that it was only half of a normal New York. It came with Brentwood Yellow Corn, Potato Croquette, Perigord Truffle Butter, Bone Marrow and Sauce Bordelaise. He ordered it rare and it was served appropriately. I ordered the bone in Duroc pork loin ($42) served with Yellow Wax Beans, Shishito, Bacon Jam, Parmesan Frico and Jimmy Nardelo Peperonata, which was very tasty. I should have indicated medium rare as it was a little more overcooked than I would like. The accompanying polenta cake and peppers were a delicious compliment. We decided not to have dessert, but they brought us a Snickers dessert for his birthday on the house. It came with Cocoa Tuille, Peanut Powder, Sea Salt and Burnt Caramel and was super yummy. I would definitely go back, highly recommend. The clientele in the restaurant were not super snobby and seemed like locals and regular people out for a good meal.

We were greeted with glasses of champagne, a special menu with our anniversary mentioned on the top, and an anniversary card. All of that was so special and unique which made us feel so welcome! We chose to do the "trust me" chef's dinner. It was a surprise for every dish. This was my first time trying bone marrow and now I am a huge fan. I will say the snickers style dessert was overwhelmingly sweet and I just couldn't finish it. My one problem with how they list it on the menu is "$20 per course". I didn't like thinking about how a somewhat skimpy salad equals out to $20. I think it sounds a bit better to say it's a $100 experience, which sounds like a better way to explain it. This was a fun experience and I enjoyed most of the items but I would not do this again. I feel some of the courses were a little lack luster and I would rather spend a bit more to do a different experience somewhere else.
