Be prepared to wait for a table on the weekends, especially if you have 5 or more people. $20 Chicken Fried Steak is about 2000 calories worth of food, a great value, and a great meal! The Chicken Fried Steak is big, thick, and juicy, with a very thick crispy breading that stays crunchy, even while doused in the rich and creamy sausage loaded gravy(you can ask for it on the side). I guestimate it's somewhere around 8-10oz of meaty beef in there. The hashbrowns are potato perfection, very, crispy and buttery! And you get two eggs of your style, and giant housemade warm buttery biscuit. This is a lot of big, fat, tasty America all on one plate...it's an epic, fatty, sodium, and calorie loaded meal! $20.00 Chicken-N-Waffles...a full half bird of deep fried juicy happiness: Breast, thigh, wing and leg, all thick battered crispiness sealing in the juicy, tender succulent chicken meat within. The waffle crispy and fluffy, served with a generous amount of syrup and butter. 2000 calories, easily! $15 TT's Famous French Toast...a unique Petaluma and secret twist on this classic: Sourdough French bread grilled with cinnamon n sugar, topped with marionberry cream cheese. So fluffy, fruity, and flavorful...I think its another 2000 calorie breakfast that will have you skipping lunch.

We opted to share the Birria Hash and thankfully it was so much food that we were both satisfied. The pancakes were fluffy and the sandwich was pretty good. I think the food is good, if you are hungry and don't want to be disappointed this would be a good place to stop by. My personal feud with restaurants today, this one being an example, is how overpriced everything is. For three meals it was $81. The pancakes were good, but $17 for normal pancakes is crazy, and it came with no sides so we added fries which just seemed like frozen reheated fries that were $7. The birria hash was $21 and that I will say was worth the money. Staff was nice.

It's actually where I was inspired to take up flying again when my dad visited the area and took me there for lunch as a surprise. The decor is cute - lots of planes hanging from the ceiling and aviation themed photos on the walls. In the summer it can be understandably very busy, so that's my only hangup. Fine if you're popping in on your own to sit at the bar for a burger, but you might end up waiting a while if you're in a group.

The menu was full of options and I would say, the price is decent! They have minosas for $6 and their breakfast sandwiches ranges from $12-16 I got egg salad sandwich which was reaaaallly good and a side of chicken! The chicken is tasty and tender! The potatoes on the side were crunchy and soft on the inside! My guava juice is amazing! I also got coffee! Our server was very sweet and helpful! She is also so patient and kind! The ambiance is great! There is also an outdoor space! I had a great experience overall and would definitely come back!

They have a lot of great options on the menu, but my cousin recommended getting either a sandwich or breakfast burrito as him and his wife had already come here before and said they were really good. I opted for a sausage breakfast burrito and a guava mimosa. Drinks came quickly which was good to hold us over while we waited on our food. It was pretty busy. Burrito was a good size and came with sour cream and salsa on the side. Not as seasoned as I would have liked inside the burrito so I'm glad there were condiments. Hot sauce and ketchup along with other condiments are on the table already. My other cousin ordered the chilaquiles. Big portion. Lots of meat and he pretty much ate all of it lol the burrito was big so I could only finish half. Burrito wasn't bad but I wish I would've gotten the sandwich instead. It looked really good! Restaurant was a good size, clean, spacious and servers were nice and attentive. I would definitely come back to try other food on the menu.

IE: Huge paintings of caricature like dogs in fluorescent colors, dreadful landscapes and yarn owls. Also, the antique capital of Northern California, yawn. (money laundering?) A lot of really nice boutique type shops with fine products and a brand new record store, Paradise Found which is quite fantastic. It is also an oasis with goo-gobs of creative talent and cool people you will find. Ranchers, farmers, construction workers, normal hard-working folk, authors, athletes, chefs, sound engineers,sculptors,craftspeople, photographers, and inventors. A full cast of interesting characters. The home of the world's ugly dog contest (I tend to stay away during this event to avoid becoming a contestant) and wrist wrestling championship. Once famous for being the egg capital of the world. I once heard this conversation in a bar, "Hey Steve remember when we got paid to inseminate chickens when we were on acid?" Steve: "Those were chickens?" Sam Shepard would've had a field day here. Some newer buildings made to look old with crafted Styrofoam façades. You get the feeling you're on a movie set, which it has been on several occasions. I lived here for a number of years, a bit of a Peyton Place aura. Nudge nudge, wink wink, say no more. Some of my favorite people I've met in the last 30 years hale from here. And, a disappropriated amount have left this earth too soon. One of the best foodie destinations north of the Golden Gate Bridge. Superb coffee shops and bakeries, some award-winning. So, back in 1999 I took a wrong turn off the freeway and discovered Petaluma and the first place I went was the "Tea Room" and it's still pretty much as awesome as it was then. A real nice vibe, nicely decorated with some incredible pastries to include the orange cranberry scone as I recall, sold out today. My breakfast today was quite good with the walnut toast, and a huge portion of very large potatoes that could've been cut into smaller pieces and maybe I only needed one third of the portion. Dem tatters were 'nuff for four people. Great atmosphere, nice friendly staff, and a very pleasant ambience. There's mirrored signage that says TEA mounted high on the wall across from one another so as to appear as if it were a reflection. I personally can also see the word EAT in there every time I glance at it. I was told years ago that it came from an old Texaco gas station sign. It makes sense, check it out. On Western Avenue. I used to tell folks it's across from the pink Catholic Church rectory. That's been painted to a rather unattractive conservation brown. A lot of nice outdoor seating and cool shops nearby, check out next-door thrift shop and the ever remarkable Petaluma market around the corner, with superb produce display! Famous for cheese, wine, cider, breweries and happy cows! If you're coming from the south cut over through Fairfax to Olema and take the back road up to Petaluma which is a stunning drive!

The service at the Tea Room is awful. Every time my husband and I go, the lady that is always at…read morethe counter is super rude and unfriendly. She makes the entire experience unenjoyable and it's very frustrating because we are always nice and respectful, and we always tip very well. The straw that broke the camel's back for us, was when we came in and my husband and I were about to order and the place was super busy so no tables were currently open, and two gentleman offered their table to us because they were about to leave, and the lady at the counter snapped at me and refused to let us sit at the table because she thought we had pressured the men into letting us have their table (mind you, we hadn't spoken to them at all before they approached us) . I'm not sure what her issue is, but I have heard from other friends in town that they have had similar experiences with her and it's made them stop going there. Unfortunately, we won't be returning either.

The seasonal menu's offerings were ideal for a rainy April day, when their cassoulet, bocadillo and other cozy options provided the comfort food we were craving. I loved the colorful tables and tasteful decor. It was clearly a regular lunch destination for many of the diners. The bar was packed during the rush, around noon, as well as the other indoor seats. My lunch friend mentioned that the restaurant is owned and operated by a husband and wife team: Annette and Brian. The regulars were greeted with familiarity. It wasn't the kind of place where you're rushed for your order, nor is it a dine and dash location. The menu - both food and drink - has tantalizing options, so it's best to come back repeatedly. My Turkish Coffee arrived quickly after I ordered it, despite Annette being the only server on the floor. I enjoyed the Bocadillo too, especially the pickled vegetables that accompany the sandwich. For those complaining that the portions were small or that the prices were high, the quality of ingredients and depth of flavor are worth the cost and my portion was more than enough to satisfy my appetite, plus I left with the other half of my sandwich as an offering for my hungry twenty-something at home. We ordered a rice pudding for dessert and dug in before I was able to snap a picture! It was delicious though, with the poached blueberries and almonds offering an ideal balance of texture and flavor to earn this simple dessert my esteem. Next time I want to try the beet & sour cream cake though!
