SF to Mendocino and back
Hi,
We'll be taking a road trip to Mendocino and back this upcoming week. We will likely be driving up along Highway 1, and back on 101 (since we're staying in Sonoma on the way back).
We love eating at Pizzeria Picco in Larkspur whenever we go north, and we've touched on a couple places in Healdsburg (can't remember the names offhand though), but overall I feel our north-of-Sonoma list of spots to visit is woefully thin. I've done some searching here on the board and turned up a few favorites around Mendocino/Ft. Bragg, but thought I'd ask to see if there were any updated recommendations, particularly between SF and that area (e.g., in Petaluma, Santa Rosa, etc.)
In case this has been covered recently, a pointer to the thread would be much appreciated!

In Petaluma - The Water Street Bistro is delicious for breakfast & lunch - Country style French cuisine - affordable for the quality and ingredients. The chef/owner was always there when we ate there. loved it, miss it, as we live in southern california now.
In Elk (in Mendocino County) - Queenie's Roadhouse - awesome diner with really great food - again breakfast/lunch - fresh, organic ingredients (if I am remembering properly)
In Sebastopol - Saint Rose - Not sure what their hours are - looks like lunch & dinner for sure. This was also one of our favorites in Western Sonoma County - always loved the food and the experience there.
