What User doesn't like about Sonoma Cellar:
The food is very good which makes it all the more of a bummer that this so-called wine bar can never really seem to get the wine part of things right. For example, on New Year’s Eve they didn’t offer tastings (except for a pre-mix set of 2 whites and 2 reds — with one glass so you are effectively mixing your wines and harming the tasting). In the past, when they did tastings, they would only do them with a single gla... View all feedback. What User likes about Sonoma Cellar:
Reasonable menu and food was tasty but not overly fussy. It was great for everyday, reliable dining. I had the Kale Salad which came with a delicious dressing and the Turkey BLTA had rave reviews at our table. Portion sizes are good. The outdoor space was lovely and dog friendly but could be spruced up ever so slightly. Service was friendly but could have been a bit more attentive. View all feedback.

The new menu was disappointing - overpriced and a decrease in quality.

Place needs to be freshened up starting with a thorough cleaning. Menu needs to be expanded. Service was scattered. Seemed like no one running the place.

Absolutely delicious meat and cheese plate, mushroom risotto, and brussel sprouts. Everything was a little spendy but was a great splurge meal.

Had a quick glass of wine here. Bar was nice bright and clean. Good crowd. They had food too but I didn’t partake. They let me try 3 wines before I had a glass.
