We had high expectations for having a good dinner experience and were not disappointed. The atmosphere is quiet, so conversation is not difficult. The dining room was elegant. The food was extraordinary. The service was friendly, helpful, and unhurried. Just made for a very pleasant evening. The grounds of the inn are gorgeous.

Ate dinner at this Graton gem last night and was impressed. Its an attractive, hip place with a big beautiful bar, an award winning bartender and an adjacent restaurant area as well as outdoor seating. The menu is divided into tapa small plates, entrees, sides and salads. It IS meat heavy and my wife and I eat fish so a strict vegetarian might find this restaurant limiting.
We shared a smoked trout salad which I have to say..... was memorable! Best smoked trout I ever ate! served on a bed of baby spinach and other greens and added other cool stuff. had macaroni and cheese side . Also excellent. Gourmet mac and cheese seems to be a"thing" nowadays and theirs is nicely executed.Also had a flatbread which was my least favorite. good but not quite as balanced as it could have been. Wine list is short but well thought out. Had a Bella Zin. Lotsa beers on tap and a full bar. Great service. Unpretentious and competent. My friend had the burger which he said was "great". I loved this place and definitely will be back. Price for 3 of us was 100 including tip. I think that is fair and reasonable for this quality dining experience.

We visit both of Sunshine's locations very often--in Forestiville and Sebastopol and the coffee and espresso drinks are very good. The Sebastopol location also has fun deals each day. Today was wild card Wednesday where you got to roll a big dice and have a chance to win something. We won a free shot! They also offer generous discounts if you bring your own cup!

I look forward to visiting for breakfast every trip I make a trip west! I dream of their salmon toast and their breakfast potatoes are addicting! If up in the North Bay, it is worth the ride as the portions are great and the food is amazing. Perfect for fueling up before heading to the coast, forest or anywhere else nearby.

This was my second visit to the restaurant. The food is very well-prepared. The restaurant is small, maybe three tables and a counter outside and maybe 10 tables inside. We had the hamburger, mac and cheese (my favorite, with mushrooms), toasted baguette and a little gems salad. The truffle fries are excellent. If they don't come with your meal, I would order a side order - so worth it. Highly recommend.

Reviewed By SFKAT3 - London, United Kingdom
We popped in and were not disappointed...except that quite a few items had already sold out. First, we had still very warm gluten free artichoke feta cheddar scones. Honestly, it was indescribably wonderful. The artichoke still had good texture (not mush) as did the feta while the cheddar melted the scone together beautifully. Our daughter is not a huge cheese fan and loved it. An almond ginger biscotti was equally incredible. Last but not least I got a loaf of the rosemary garlic bread as I had tried a sample and it was just too yummy to pass up. Both my husband and daughter asked why I got it, thinking it would go to waste....a quarter of it was gone just being in the backseat with our daughter before we made it back to our hotel (and she is more definitely not a fan of the usual garlic bread but was fine with the whole cloves in this loaf). Most of the loaf was nibbled away before dinner. Be sure to check that it's open -- the days it was open while we were visiting the area were fri-mon. There's also a nice shop next door that sells hats, jewelry, some clothing and antiques so we picked up a hat for our son who missed out on the fab bread.

One of the best eating establishments in Sonoma and Napa Counties. We enjoyed dinner in late August 2017, seated outside in a beautifully-landscaped garden atmosphere. Service is outstanding, informal and attentive without being intrusive. Our first courses of gazpacho soup and mussels were outstanding, the broth for the mussels so flavorful we heartily enjoyed soaking it up with homemade bread and rolls. Main courses of halibut and of polenta and vegetables were also superb, local fresh vegetables cooked perfectly.

When visiting the Russian River Valley wineries and you find yourself wanting a good sit-down meal to fuel up for the next tasting rooms stop by Willowwood Market Cafe, serving lunch and dinner.
Be warned. After the meal and the dessert and the coffee, you might forgo that next tasting.
