Ambiance was amazing, the aesthetic of the restaurant was very pleasing. Furthermore you cant forget the rest of the staff, Dawa and Fiona were great, they came over and wished my mom a Happy Birthday as well! The service was so attentive by everyone, you can tell they truly care about your experience. Additionally I got the filet and it was perfect. The filet was very juicy and tender. The wipped potatoes that paired with the Filet were stellar, smooth creamy and very tasty! Overall the experience is one to never forget and a place to come by in Sonoma! I will definitely be back!

The backyard seating is also lovely with all their plants and shaded spots. We had their Turkish eggs, duck breast sandwich and the Shrimp toast appetizer. Everything was amazing.

The service was pretty good, seated fast, pretty attentive with all the tables they had to serve. We ordered a traditional caramel macchiato (it is nothing like a Carmel macchiato that you are thinking of) and a matcha latte. They were pretty but lacking flavor. The Mach was very bitter, but I am sure that's the traditional version in a little bitty shot like glass -not my fave but I was trying to order stuff i wouldn't normally get. ‍ the matcha came in a giant mug, and it wasn't sweet at all and just kinda of plain. For food, we ordered the wagyu steak and eggs. It came with some interesting garlic herby potatoes, a piece of sourdough cut in half, scrambled eggs, 6 slim slices of beef and a little jam of some sort. We also asked for a side of their house made chili crunch. The steak was mediocre, the potatoes tasted a little weird. We enjoyed the bread and eggs the most. Maybe we just ordered the wrong things. I'd come back and try other items. It is a very cute location.

Plus I'm always skeptical of counter ordering... more lameness. I had the best scrambled eggs and de-caf Americano I have ever had in my life! I ordered the biscuits and gravy, which is really very good, not a classic in the genre, but if you are a collector of biscuits-and-gravy, do definitely order it. And that's how you are going to get those scrambled eggs. My bride had the Bagel with Smoked Salmon + Avocado. Among the best bagels I've had, and very generous portions of salmon and avocado beautifully arranged. We share plates and the bagel+salmon+scrambled eggs were over-the-top. Do stop in, they are very friendly at the counter, the patio is calling, and if there are any baguettes left when you leave, leave with one. I already miss it and can't wait to go back. And that's rare...

Hands down best breakfast in Sonoma. The food is soooo delicious and the drip coffee is actually…read morereally tasty roast, not the typical average diner coffee. We've eaten here a couple times. The first time I got the avocado toast which is really unique because it has roasted eggplant added in with the other toppings. The most recent time we got the lemon mascarpone crepe and French toast-- both so delicious but that might have been the best tasting French toast I've ever had. The restaurant itself is small and quaint, all chair tables no booths, but the patio seating is ample and really charming. Everyone who works there is so welcoming and kind, we felt cared for and at home. When they're busy parking can be a bit odd but we parked at the McDonald's lot next door (even tho it had signage for MD's only, whatev lol). All in all we LOVE Verano cafe, and although they don't have an exclusively kid menu it's also a friendly spot for kids. Thank you Verano Cafe! We can't wait to come back

Trifecta! Our first time eating here. It was a cold, blustery day in Sonoma and we were looking…read morefor a cozy, family owned restaurant. I looked up breakfast places and we were directed here. What a hidden gem... or maybe everyone else knows about it but us. The parking is limited, but you can park around the back or next door in the McD's lot. Seating outside, but since it was raining, we opted for inside. We walked into a cozy, friendly environment which was packed. The only table that was available, was a table for 1 in the corner. The extremely generous young man sitting by the door, heard what the server had offered us and he immediately turned to us and gave us his table and he moved to the single table. I don't think anyone has ever done this for us. We gladly accepted and in turn we treated him to breakfast. We were curious to see the plates coming out of the small kitchen. The pancakes look amazing, as did everything else we caught a glimpse of. A Vallejo omelette and a basic eggs, bacon and potatoes plate. My husband absolutely loved the omelette comparing it to the ones he used to order at the Cliff House in SF back in the day. My eggs were cooked perfectly and the potatoes were perfect with onion and red peppers added in. Omelette $20 and egg combo $19. Very reasonably priced. The service was great and the food came out piping hot. We will definitely visit again. They were written up in Sonoma magazine for the lemon pancakes and French toast.

First and foremost the best tasting thing we had was the cauliflower spinach egg and cheese empanada. Oh my word!! The flavors of this little gem was perfect.

We also ordered the El Senor Crispy which is Fried chicken breast, cole slaw, sweet chili bacon aioli, pickles, served on a bun with fries - delicious! We did get 3 pastries to go and our favorite was the apple cinnamon one. I ordered a unicorn mimosa for funsies. It is blue with edible glitter. Pretty good and not overly sweet. We really enjoyed this place! Highly recommend!!

The staff were all very friendly and helpful in assisting me on which dishes are most popular - that helped me deicide on my selection. Overall - great place, yummy food, and super nice staff!!

They came around to give us a second round of crostini since we ran out and we didn't have to request for it. They must get a lot of requests of the extra crostini to enjoy and finish the mousse entirely! Steak tartare to savor over as well as their pickled caperberries, offered something different to cornichons and complimented well with the steak tartare. Duck confit was to be delved into! They know how to make the duck confit still juicy and tender! I adore the corn ragout, pickled alliums, squash and sweet peppers all mixed together and laid underneath the duck confit. It's a unique dish and a signature entree one must order! I haven't tasted anything like this before. Their iron steak could be replaced with something else. I do like their frites on this entree but they could have upped their game by providing gratin instead (which they have on their menu only as a side) with the steak. Adored their gratin. Overall warm dining atmosphere, quaint vibes and quality, attention to detail, French bites being served here!

I ordered a local beer and my wife struggled deciding which drink to order but chose the mezcal cocktail. We ordered shrimp cocktail and oysters to start. Only the oysters came with horseradish but I feel that the shrimp should have had some with the cocktail sauce as well. Regardless, I'd order both raw bar dishes again. For entrees my wife ordered the steak frites which she thoroughly enjoyed. I couldn't decide on what I wanted so I ordered three appetizers. The tuna tartare and burrata were great but the pork belly was out of this world. Very flavorful and a well-thought-out dish; something that I will order every time I go there. We of course ended with dessert. The strawberry rhubarb crisp was terrific as was the crème brûlée. I didn't the sorbet paired well with the crème brûlée but it was delicious on its own.
