Buffalo Fried Oyster
Mike P.

This seafood and raw bar was great as advertised. Food was excellent across the board, and everything we ordered was fresh and full of flavor. The small, tapas plate style made it fun to try several things and share. Service was also fantastic. The staff is friendly and attentive, and made the whole experience even better. I would absolutely come back again and highly recommend it to anyone in the area.

New England Style Clam Chowder, Oyster Crackers
Judy K.

Willi's in downtown Healdsburg was a fantastic find after a day of wine tasting at Ridge! The clam chowder was delicious, but the homemade biscuits served alongside it were the real standout--flaky, buttery, and absolutely delicious. We shared this with our busser, who was amazing throughout our visit, and he surprised us by sending us home with a small pack of biscuits. Such a thoughtful gesture and one that truly made our day! My favorite dish of the night, though, was the crispy-skin chicken. Perfectly cooked, incredibly flavorful, and that crispy skin took it completely over the top. Great food, thoughtful service, and those little touches that make a meal memorable. Definitely a fantastic stop after a day in wine country!

Great oysters, and everything we've tried has been pretty good so far. Fresh ingredients and prepared well, though some dishes felt a bit over-sauced.

Absolutely love this place! The staff is incredibly attentive, friendly and very welcoming The cocktails did not disappoint nor did the wine selection The restaurant is cute inside, but highly recommend opting in for their outdoor patio I recommend passing on the grilled oyster while it looks appetizing. It wasn't very flavorful. Everything else was incredibly good.

Grilled Fish Tacos, Avocado Crema, Mango Slaw, Habanero Aioli, Lime
Pam C.

So happy to have found this gem. Hub and I stopped in for lunch and wow, everything from the service, ambiance and food was superb. We had the steamed mussels and the aji coconut broth was so good I wanted to scoop it with a spoon. Also shared the grilled fish tacos which were fresh and cooked perfectly. I love the kick of habanero mixed with cool and creamy avocado creama. The mango slaw also lended a nice sweetness.

Food was great but tapa style. I had the bacon wrapped scallops, 3 small scallops with a dollop of coleslaw. Yum. They had uni toast not on the menu. It was ok. I prefer Japanese prepared uni but wanted to tray something else. My partner has the charred octopus street tacos. She said it was really good. The service great but there's a 2% BOH fee. I thought that was weird. The ambiance was modern and sultry.

Out of all the Starks family restaurants, this is my least favorite and it's a shame I have to say that, because all the other restaurants are so great and I love seafood. Welcomed and friendly hostess, wait staff was attentive, and wonderful outdoor patio that is covered with trees and cool during a warm day. Unfortunately the food was mediocre, lacked flavor, and just did not look appetizing when brought out. They did though have a lot of choices for *GF in which they make alternatives for.

The food and service were both good. We had a large variety of plates, mostly fish which is surprising because my hubby doesn't love fish. They have non fish options to choose from!

Little Neck Clams, Cape Cod, MA
Kelsey C.

I adore this place. Last weekend we decided to stay the night in the area so I made reservations here and it did not disappoint! Making reservations was so easy and the woman I spoke with was very accommodating! When we arrived they sat us right away and were prompt on getting our drinks! Our server was hilarious and really on top of it. We ordered the little neck clams in butter and beer broth and wow they are incredible! We also got the little gem salad and the sourdough (this is a must) and we got the daily ceviche which was halibut with peppers. My partner got the hanger steak and it was cooked to perfection. She only gave up one bite to me but boy was it good! In the past we have also had the kale Caesar, the clam strips, yellow tail ceviche, and fresh oysters. I have not had a bite of food there that I did not enjoy. The place is shaped a little weird and some seats are more desirable than others. We love the booth (you pretty much have to make reservations to get one) but it is worth mentioning that we are both pretty average size people (maybe a bit more than average if I'm being honest) but anyone who is on the bigger side probably wouldn't fit in the booth. It's a really tight squeeze getting into them because they have these little wall things that come out a tad too far. It is great people watching from there though! They also have beautiful outdoor seating! Overall this is 5 stars for me. If you love seafood and good service you have to check this place out!

Crab cake no filler
Amanda M.

We made an early reservation for Valentine's Day. The restaurant has two bar areas, an indoor dining area and an outdoor patio which was super cute. We were seated in the upper level at a table with a Birdseye view. Started with an espresso martini ( so good he ordered another) and a dirty martini which was perfectly dirty. We had bbq'd oysters and buffalo fried oysters. The buffalo ones have a kick so be prepared. The bread with garlic herbed butter was also mouthwatering. Served hot and the perfect amount of crisp edges and soft insides. Then the star of the show was the dungeons crab salad on this buttery toasted roll. We had to contain ourselves not to get another. So we tried the crab cake instead. Also absolutely melt in your mouth goodness. Go, splurge.. it's so worth it.

Back again adore our 2nd time since we are in town visiting ! Love the varieties of small sharable plates ! Service were attentive as always !! Sure some dishes were a bit overly sauced but love the fusion of flavor /ganish

Edison H.

Quick lunch break. We sat outside so we were kinda out of sight out of mind. The food though was good. It was a bit expensive so we ended up ordering small bites instead. I mean we are in Heladsburg so things are pricier. Bathroom situation is not ideal. You have to go in another building for it but it was manageable.

Jinny K.

This place was just alright. No wow factor. I came in a group of 12 so we tried most of what's on the menu but none of them stood out to any of us. Presentation of the food were nice, especially the fried oysters, but I could find many other places with both nice presentation and flavor that hooks me in. Oysters were good as always. The grilled Mahi Mahi tacos came out after everyone else was done with their meal and the fish was dry.

Saw no real vegetarian/vegan options for those of us accompanying seafood loving friends. It'd be great to have a fried avocado taco added to the taco choices - or cauli or shrooms. Or Portabello fries with marinara. Can u consider option?

This place sells great salads that are vegetarian and can be made vegan. Plus the additions you are suggesting are basic af.

What is the corkage fee here?

Vegetarian options look sparse, do they make accommodations?

Do you have kids menu?

No. There are items a kid would like, but nothing made for kids.

Do you have outdoor dining?

Yes.

Do they have a gluten free menu?

Everything is a la cart, and most of the selections are gluten-free

Located in downtown Healdsburg. Our party of 2 visited at around 3pm on a Monday afternoon and…read morethere was no wait. Perfect timing for happy hour which starts at 3pm though the menu only had deals for drinks. Vibes: Loved the ambiance inside and outside the patio. We wanted to enjoy the nice breeze and the patio provided lots of shade. For cooler nights, it looked like they had ample heaters around the patio. I can see this place, especially the bar inside, being very lively at night. Service: Wonderful service from our server. Since it was our first time, we asked for his opinion whether or not we ordered too much or too little. He helped us tweak some items on our order and it ended up being the perfect amount of food with no leftovers and almost cleaned out plates. Each dish came out almost exactly as we finished the previous dish. Food: -Crudo (MP): 5 pieces topped with pepper and onion -Grilled Vietnamese Steak ($19): about 5 pieces on a skewers. Meat was tender and went perfectly with the sauce. The "not so sticky rice" didn't have much flavor by itself. Had to eat it with the sauce and meat. -Mushroom eggroll ($12): 3 pieces of egg rolls. Loved the duck sauce and truffle hot mustard sauce -Kimchi Noodles ($20) + add chicken ($8): the chicken served was the Pollo A La Brasa which tasted well with the dish. I enjoyed the crunch of water chestnuts. It was a unique dish with fresh noodles. For someone who likes spicy food, this didn't have much kick for me. Would order this again! Overall: Would love to visit Lo and Behold again next time we're in town!

Nice casual option for Healdsburg that isn't too expensive…read more The cucumber plate was the highlight of dinner, I wasn't sure how much I'd like the curry vinaigrette, but it actually worked really well with the cucumbers and the dish felt nice and refreshing. I decided to get the kimchi noodles based on all the rave reviews, but thought it was only fine and a bit too oily. Perhaps I'm spoiled by Chinese noodle shops that I think do this kind of wide noodle better. I added chicken to the noodles, which is the same chicken from the pollo à la brasa dish, and it was solid. Quite crunchy and blackened but still very tender. My partner got the famed chicken tenders, which were not bad, but he found the ratio of breading to chicken a bit off (too much breading for his taste). I also really liked the fries.

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!

Service seemed nice enough and attentive enough. As much the ambiance was nice, the food was meh. The bacon wrapped dates and cauliflower were the only items we enjoyed. Pig ears were chewy instead of crispy. Nothing stood out as great. Portions were meager; the jambon and cheese was the only item we had that was substantial. With 4 items left me hungry until those mini sandwiches. At $50 per person and 3/5 items not great, can't say I'd return for food. But if someone suggested the place for a drink, I'd make a trip, after a meal.

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.
