Food preferences are French/Italian/American, and I'd like to hear about the nicer establishments. (Feel free to add your two cents about vineyards, too!) Thanks a bunch.

Type 'CTRL F' when the Bay Area page is the active window and that will get you to the search tool. Search on Sonoma, Glen Ellen, Healdsburg, Santa Rosa, Forestville, Geyserville, Petaluma, Sebastopol, Windsor, Guerneville, Bodega, Occidental, Graton, Cloverdale, Jenner, Jimtown, etc. and you will find all that you are looking for. I assume you are staying in the town of Sonoma, so you may prefer South/East County eats vs. North County or West County destinations.

We stayed at the Farmhouse Inn and although we only had breakfast I am sure they do a great dinner (they only serve dinner Th-Sun.)...We did FL on Thursday...our last night in town and even the manager there made mention of Farmhouse as a great place ot eat. We also ate at Healdsburg Chatucerie (spelling???)....very nice dinner...smaller restaurant. Lunch at Oakville Grocery in Healdsburg.
