Reviews for Sonoma Wine Shop / La Bodega Kitchen in Sebastopol, CA

I was so unhappy to hear they went vegetarian when all I eat is meat. I was forced by friends and my wife to go. I chose the... pasta and it was very good. I have to admit it didn't kill me and it was very good. The wines they choose are all smallvineyard wines and all are very good. I just wish they had a meat option like most dinner clubs have a vegetarian option. Ilove Meek the owner and they run a very wonderful dinner club! Read more

My goodness. Where to start?!! This place was such a gem. First of all, the options for delicious vegetarian food were amazing.... The baked rigatoni was to die for. The sauce was a perfect blend of tomato and cream and the cheese was so delicious. The peoplewho work there are probably the nicest, most genuine people to ever work at a restaurant. It felt like family and it felt likehome. I would highly recommend this absolutely delicious restaurant to anyone...vegetarian or not. The wines were so yummy andthey really want to make sure you taste and get to choose the one you really love. THANK YOU, La Bodega!! We will 100% be back. Read more

We can’t begin to thank meekk and her team enough for making our wedding day an absolute dream come true. Our guests could not... stop raving about the food and wine, and how warm and friendly the La Bodega Kitchen staff were. They truly went above andbeyond for us in every way imaginable. Out of all the decisions that went into planning our wedding, serving meek's food on ourwedding night was hands-down one of the best choices we made! Read more

We know nothing about wine but we had so much fun! Everything was delicious; we had the vegan menu and the seasoning was... incredible! The service was excellent and the atmosphere is very relaxed and cozy, there are not many tables so it feelsintimate. Loved it. Read more

Ok. Imma bout to gush ???? and it's a long one. Today is the 5th anniversary of my marriage to Ron Guptill. We have been so... incredibly blessed in a few different restaurants to be "adopted" and truly treated like deeply loved family. I've posted aboutTIPS Roadside recently and this evening I'm posting about Sonoma Wine Shop and La Bodega Kitchen in Sebastopol. Early in ourrelationship I discovered "Restaurant Week". I am not from Santa Rosa so I didn't know that was a thing. I'm gluten free dueto Celiacs, so finding a place where I can equally enjoy the menu can be challenging. Anyway, I was looking at menus online andstopped on one that had the yummiest sounding menu, had lots of specifically gluten free options and had one of my mother'sabsolute favorite desserts, alfahores (She grew up in Argentina). It was a total win. We went and were surprised by the funfamily style way of service. Our hostess Meekk immediately felt like family. The food was delicious and we enjoyed our timethoroughly. Fast forward. We've gone to La Bodega Kitchen many times, often spending special holidays there like Mother's Day,birthdays and the like..and every time, we are treated like long lost family. Her partner Brian hung out at our table for wellinto an hour one Mother's Day taking about wine, food and like. We love the house chicken who sometimes comes to visit usoutside. One evening we were sitting in their new outdoor area, when restaurants were just beginning to reopen. Despite all ofour visits, hugs and the family vibe every time, we had not become members of the wine club. We decided that evening to do so. She was surprised and said she thought we had been members for years. She took her time testing our palates, giving suggestionsand coming up with our likes and loves. We became members and get wine every few months now. So what are the picturesabout? My husband got sick yesterday. We had planned our Anniversary dinner for this evening and call Read more

Amazing experience! We got great food, you can see below the house waffles, the Mediterranean plate, eggs Benedict, but the best... of all was the wine flight: the awesome waiter took us through 8 wines produced in the area and she even brought us somecomplimentary cheese (exquisite) to go with the Chardonnay. I loved the food, loved the wines, loved the service. It's adefinite recommendation and I'm also considering subscribing to the wine club Read more

Wow, what a great brunch in a home like setting! The first rule is to know "this is not a restaurant", but the food and the... service for this hidden little gem is amazing. We were made to feel at home and treated like royalty! We loved how when thecaretaker calls the chickens "birds! birds!" They come running for a chance at some food! Such a charming little place, now wecan't wait to wine taste here!! ???????? Read more
