Best Tapas Restaurants in Sonoma

Great place to share small plates of great food with friends. Popular fun place to spend time with or entertain friends. My wife and I rate Willie's as our favorite restaurant.

This is an exceptional destination for dinner in restaurant-laden Healdsburg. Comfortably presented in what used to be a small house with a nicely landscaped back yard, the environment is much less chaotic than a commercial restaurant space. The menu and wine list are extensive, with a range of choices to please all tastes. We enjoyed an all-tapas meal, including bacalao cigarillos (outstanding), crispy chicken thighs, sauteed spinach, chorizo & shishito peppers, and las patatas bravas. We had a nice, steely, refreshing Spanish white wine, El Coto, which complemented all dishes. The sauces kicked each of the dishes up a notch, with romesco and romesco aioli mayonnaise being most memorable. We were attended by what seemed like a horde of staff, rather than a particular server, but all were very enthusiastic and moved with blurry speed. We were STUFFED by the five tapas we ordered, so we did not even consider dessert, but the coffee we ordered sticks out as the best we've had in recent experience: it is served in a metal French press, with a uniform grind that is sized to be effectively filtered out by a very fine mesh screen in the press (no grounds or fines make it into the coffee). I don't know the brand of coffee, but it was very rich and smooth, without bitterness or acidity. So different from the coffee I make for myself that I feel like I'm obliged to rave about it. Even the furniture of this place was memorable. If you are visiting Healdsburg you must try Bravas.

About as authentic as you can get outside of Spain. The cheeses, jamon, salchichon and chorizo were excellent. Huevos rotos were not authentic but really good. A couple of dishes were over elaborate, the albondigas didn't need the richness of the duck meat and the croquetas were a bit too creamy. Pulpo was beautifully cooked but hadn't been tenderized fully. Overall A+ though

Contrary to my thoughts, dinner is not served at the Top of the Mark

Quiet place on Xmas eve morning.Food was well prepared, good presentation, prompt service. Enjoyed the excellent Mussels and tasty Brussel Sprouts. Sweet spot in Warwick Hotel.
