I was visiting Healdsburg and wanted to try Dry Creek Kitchen, which had been recommended. I didn't want the prix fixe menu, so I sat at the bar and was taken care of by the wonderful Jess (she's the only reason I gave them four stars). It's also a very pretty place to sit. The smoked salmon gougeres sounded tempting, but turned out to be a bit of a disappointment. Gougeres are usually served warm, but this one was cold and tasted like a salmon-flavored cream puff. I had the gem lettuce salad next and I liked the addition of strawberries. However, the salad was so drenched in miso vinaigrette that was all you could taste. Overdressed like wearing a tuxedo to a hoedown. I then had "Mary's" version of cordon bleu rolled with chicken and ham on a bed of polenta with spinach and oyster mushrooms with a Dijon jus. It sounded wonderful on the menu, but it was a letdown, oddly flavorless. As I was eating it a local regular next to me said I should have ordered something else - it was not his favorite. How I wish he'd sat down before I ordered! read more

Dry Creek Kitchen delivered such a memorable dinner for our group. The space is elegant while still inviting, and the menu setup makes it easy to tailor the night -- three prix fixe options (an $83 three‑course, a six‑course pasta tasting, and a six‑course chef's tasting). Only the bar offers à la carte. We chose the three‑course menu, and it was absolutely worth it, especially given the generous portions. Even with a reservation, we did have to wait a bit, but the team immediately rectified the situation and brought our party of six welcome cocktails, setting the tone for the excellent service all evening. DCK also offers a $30 per bottle corkage fee (max two), which I highly recommend taking advantage of (you are in wine country after all). Once we were seated, the service was excellent and genuinely attentive. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly, knowledgeable, and on top of the details without hovering. The food was exceptional across the board -- beautifully prepared, balanced, and exactly what you hoped for. Dry Creek Kitchen is the kind of place that feels special but still approachable. We'd absolutely come back. read more

Had some friends in town recently and they we're wanted to go try a tasting menu someplace. They recommended Dry Creek Kitchen, so we decided to book a reservation there. We got an 8:15 seating. It was a Saturday night and when we arrived, there was a little bit of a line which wasn't surprising, as i think they were timing the seatings to coincide with kitchen timing for the tasting menus. We were seated fairly quickly, and the staff was friendly. We decided to try the six coirse tasting menus, and added the wine pairing as well. Service is friendly, although the atmosphere was was quite loud - to the point that it was almost difficult to hear people across the table, which is a bit disappointing and definitely detracts from the overall ambience - though noisy tables are no vault of the restaurant. We ordered two different tasting menus - two of us ordered the chefs menu and two ordered the pasta menu so we would have an opportunity to kind of taste across the table a little bit. I had the chefs menu which included a Kanpache Crudo saffron linguine. A seard dayboat, scallop, sweet pork belly dish, beef fiket, and a butterscotch cheese cheesecake to finish. In general I found the wines to be quite good and or well chosen for the plates. I will say, however, that I felt a lot of dishes were are very butter, heavy, and lacked range and dimension. Perhaps it was just not my taste, but I found the overall dining portion of the experience to be underwhelming ( particularly at the price point). I didn't find anything to be stand out amd nothing wowed me. Dishes felt plain and predictable, and note particularly creative. I will give a nod to the pork belly, as it was tasty - though overly reductive. The desert was a flop - and only made worse but the stale bites the supplied in addition. I felt we could have done better elsewhere particularly for half of what we paid. Another note in the service - I felt like i was in the way of the runners and bussers, who swarmed over us when clearing and delivering our dishes - which made that portion the service feel invasive and disrupting. Demerit there for sure - i should feel like i need to stick out of the way of the service - i should barely notice they are there. They kept missing bits of fresh silverware at resets too. Very distracting, and frankly, inexcusible. It reflects poorly on restaurant management I will chalk that one up to experience. I may try again on a less busy night - they did have some dishes on the priix fixe menu that looked investing - and to be fair I would have preferred to try some of those items instead. Based strictly on my most recent experience here, I find it difficult to recommend Dry Creek Kitchen. read more

Came back from 3 weeks ago from celebrating our anniversary. We had such a wonderful experience that we came back to celebrate 60th birthday and this time we brought family to join us. We didn't have the opportunity to reserve the private room but we were lucky to be seated together at the large round table for 11 under the beautiful chandelier. We arrived a bit early but were seated immediately. Brian and supporting staff was incredible accommodating to all our needs making sure our water glass was always full. Never had to flag anyone down for a refill. We all decided to order the 6 course prefix except for mom who had the 3 course. Every entree was wonderful, filling and delicious! They served a February Tasting Menu that was different from our last visit. Menu changes monthly and so far our 2 visits has been incredible and special dining experience. Would be willing to come back to celebrate another special occasion or just when in town visiting. read more

Food was delicious, we ordered the 50 layer lasagna, Clam chowder along with some appetizers. Everything was delicious. Service was excellent. Reservations are recommended as it does get busy, we were seated at the Bar which I didn't mind since we had no reservations. Bartender Jessica was amazing so attentive to us. Ambiance is very formal and very romantic. Perfect place for a nice romantic dinner. Five stars for this restaurant for sure. read more

Initially, I was impressed by their staff's teamwork to provide a truly luxe dining experience and the interior's sloping design taking a large space and making it feel cozy. I started with their creamy, flavorful burrata toast with eggplant caponata and basil, which was the perfect balance of cool cheese over a savory base. The gem lettuce salad was crisp, vibrant, and refreshing with its carrot, sesame, and ginger vinaigrette. For my entrée, I savored a perfectly cooked filet mignon--tender, juicy, and full of flavor. This would have been a perfect dinner had I not sweated the whole time I was there, the dessert (again) took 25 minutes to come to the table, and then it was rather unappealing - peach mousse "bomb" which was a bland, gelatinous, gritty mess with some non-descript small peach bits inside. Not the best ending to an otherwise fantastic meal. read more

Great service, Neighbor menu excellent value. We're local and this is one of our go-to restaurants in town. Jon and Maria stay on top of the front of the house, making sure the excellent staff are making sure diners are being well taken care of. And the chef, Shane, comes up with outstanding dishes. On Thursday nights they have a 3 course Neighbor Menu and some wines are half-price. It winds up being an excellent value for such great service and food. Go Now! read more

Had an amazing experience at the bar with Jess on Monday night. She took great care of me, provided a sparkling wine based welcome drink went over the menu with me and suggested wine pairings. This place is right off the town square. Reservations arerecommend recommended. I enjoyed the salmon canapé best. The focaccia was second. The butterscotch cheesecake was third. And the kiwi salad and halibut tied. The halibut was a little dry, but the vegetables with the halibut were amazing! read more

Oddly, we arrived early for our reservation when few tables were occupied. I swear they gave us the WORST table there. I am a BIPOC person, so I took it a bit personally. Nevertheless, I try to enjoy life no matter what. The meal was good. The restaurant was NEVER fully committed the entire evening but I did notice that another BIPOC was seated at a shitty table in the back and she was there before me. No other people of color were guests that evening. Our server selected an appropriate glass for our winery's red blend that we brought, so there is that at least. But damn, people, discrimination is fricking real. read more

One of my friends saw an article on the best restaurants in Healdsburg and five of us collectively agreed to Dry Creek Kitchen. Great choice as it is excellent all around! Dry Creek hit all my 5 stars requirements. Walk through the high double door entrance and upscale, contemporary yet very California wine country ambiance abounds. Even the rest rooms were beautiful. The $75 prix fixe menu has enough variety at every course to satisfy each of our preferences. For Canapés, the Miyagi oysters pulled from nearby Tomales Bay were so fresh and lush! I favor west coast over east coast, and they were exquisite. You only get 2 but I could've eaten a dozen or more. My first course was a refreshing Kampachi Crudo, but I wished I had picked what others tried: Brokaw Grilled Avocado was phenomenal and bursting with flavors...smoked trout roe, pickled onion, marinated beet crème fraiche, and everything spice quinoa crunch. Perfection! My main course Liberty Duck Breast was awesome, perfectly cooked and beautifully rendered. Seared Day Scallops were tasty, and the Flannery Beef 28-day Rib Eye was mouth-watering delicious. Our cocktails and obviously the wine selection were amazing, and we finished our dessert with a round of espresso martinis. Dry Creek Kitchen was a perfect end to a fun but long tasting day in spectacular cloudless wine country. Luckily we had a Uber to take us back to our hotel! read more

We had a wonderful dinner the other night. We started with the little gem salad and the Dungeness crab gazpacho. For main entrees we had the chicken roulade and the salmon. For dessert we shared the white peach mousse bomb and the blackberry frangipane tart. All of the portions and flavors were spot on. Our server was very professional but also a little harried because he had many tables to cover that night. Even the bussers acted professionally. read more

Solid choice; fantastic service, delicious food. This is one of the long standing restaurants since this building was added to the area and for good reason, it's a tried and true. The service matches the delicious menu and fantastic cocktail and wine program. You can't go wrong with any of the choices. I don't give 5 stars often but this hits the spot. read more

We celebrated our anniversary in October. Anthony Costamagna was our sever. we sat outside because we had our small Furbaby with us. Anthony went above and beyond to make us welcome, and well taken care of. And he was very sweet also to make sure our pup was warm. What else can you ask for? we will definitely be back. My one complaint is that the sommelier took it upon himself to bring a wine that he thought we wanted given my description of a jammy, deep, spicy Pinot (something that can up to lamb or veal or even beef) He should have checked with us first before bringing something that we did not order. I thought he was a little arrogant. However 5 star mean and service because of Anthony. Give that man a raise! read more

I got food poisoning last night from this place. It's awful and I'll spare you the details. It started within an hour or two after dinner there. I hadn't eaten anything all day since having a simple breakfast so I know it was the restaurant. I had the salmon canapé, but so did my wife, so I'm ruling that out. I had a persimmon salad and then beef cheek entré and then we both had the pumpkin pie tarts. So I don't know what to say, kind of dubious about going back there. As far as the food goes it was pretty good-tasting, but needed more seasoning though, ended up adding salt and pepper. I've had much better for much less. The waitstaff was great, not their fault that I got sick, hence the 2nd star. The other "tiny problem" was there were gnats flying around our table and they were the kind that flies into your eyes and ears. The hostess came around to ask if everything was alright and I politely said "yes", but they probably ought to do something about it. read more

I had high hopes given the reviews. They go over the top and just try too hard to be "unique". Their plates end up being flavor forward with odd pairings. I ordered duck and it was almost raw and inedible. Salad was okay but massive chunks of veggies in contrast to all the other petite dishes. Our appetizers were so small it was comical. Dessert was too sugary to eat. It was a waste of $$ read more

Dining Delight at Dry Creek Kitchen I had the pleasure of dining at the charming Dry Creek Kitchen in Healdsburg. Despite being a solo diner, I was warmly welcomed into the elegant yet cozy atmosphere--the perfect setting for savoring a memorable meal. I decided to indulge in the seven-course tasting menu, and it certainly did not disappoint. My culinary adventure began with an amuse bouche, truffle egg, on to the first dish, lightly torched Akamatsu, accompanied by Ponzu radish and sea bean. This delicate dish set the stage for the array of flavors to come. The next course, a Dayboat scallop with parsnip, Preston farm strawberry, and vanilla bean vierge, harmoniously combined the sweetness of the strawberry with the subtlety of vanilla, complementing the succulent scallop perfectly. The standout dish for me was the morel mushroom with black garlic and Parmigiano Reggiano. Though I am not typically fond of morels, this expertly crafted dish was a revelation. The earthy mushroom flavor was elevated by the robust notes of black garlic, resulting in a delectable combination of textures and tastes. Next, I was presented with a liberty duck breast, adorned with cherry and pork. Despite not being an avid fan of duck, this dish was executed flawlessly, as the rich duck flavors married beautifully with the fruity and savory accompaniments. The fifth course featured painter hill bacon with Sun choke Mira Shishido Pepper, a delightful fusion of flavors that left me craving more. To conclude my meal, I indulged in the homemade ice cream and sorbet. I opted for the vanilla and blackberry, though there was also an option for chocolate and kiwi. This sweet treat was the ideal finale to an unforgettable dining experience. Throughout my time at Dry Creek Kitchen, the service was impeccable. The attentive and knowledgeable staff made me feel right at home, ensuring that every aspect of my meal was enjoyable. I would highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a delightful dining experience in Healdsburg, whether you're flying solo or with company. It's no wonder chef Charlie Palmer has earned such acclaim in the culinary world--I, for one, am eager to explore more of his restaurants and discover the innovative dishes they have to offer. If this place wasn't recommended by a trusted source, I would not have made it since the restaurant had average 3.5 stars and no Michelin star, which doesn't pass my usual bar, so this was definitely a fun surprise :) Courtney was truly amazing. Lovely, knowledgeable and very accommodating! Thank you team dry creek! read more

Once again, Thursday Night Neighbors menu drew us into DCK . Crisp white linens, sparkling glasses and fresh flowers. We now have our favorite table and server. While the food was superb, a shoutout to Isabella, Chris, and Ben is well deserved. They made it the delightful evening that it was. Surprise! Instead of the Neighbor' menu we opted for the August tasting menu. A multi-course meal with surprising and creative tastes. Worth every penny.... read more

DCK was a huge disappointment in regards to service and food. We sat outside on the patio on Friday, May 9 which was nice with the exception of the horrible service. I suspect the less experience servers are assigned to the patio. Our waiter could not describe even a salad. In fact, he told my husband that a particular salad was actually a "cold pasta". My husband ordered it and it was not a pasta. I ordered the gem salad and it was swimming in dressing(s) not edible due to overdressing and found several ants in it. I showed the waiter my salad and the ants- the waiter took his writing pen out of his pocket and used his dirty pen to attempt to fish out the ants. I sent the salad back- he did not bring me a new one nor did he remove the inedible salad from our bill. Unacceptable on many fronts. We have been to DCK many times and were very disappointed with the service or lack thereof. The care to the food was lacking as well. Lastly, the sommelier should always open the wines; our waiter clearly had no clue about the wine (Saxum) and zero clue about wine stem wear. As the saying goes you are only as good as your weakest link and the patio staff were a colossal fail. Next time, we are going to Troubadour Bread and Bistro. read more

We were a 4 some. All of us ordered the 3 course dinners. The 5 course tasting menu requires that everyone at a table order it. Kind'a like being at mom's house, you eat what she gives you. So right off the bat, the dinners were very good but not over the top - OMG - "This is the best thing I've ever eaten". As the 4 of us selected different things and shared bites, I got to taste most of the menu items. My shrimp grits was delicious plus. The 4 giant shrimp cooked perfectly. The grits were moist, flavorful, toothsome and buttery but not to a fault. My medium rare steak was also seasoned well. My inclination is to order a steak cooked medium, but at the behest of my wife she insisted that I order this one medium rare. And truthfully to my taste it was undercooked, actually almost uncooked in the center. Wine selection and enthusiastic recommendation: The Vivier Pinot noir. $21 glass. Smooth and rich tasting without being sweet. (All the wines by the glass and bottle are typical 4 to 5 times markup from retail. (Several Bay Area wine shops sell this Vivier Pinot Noir for $38 / bottle.) The best food of the meal? The desserts. We tried 4. Loved every single one. The best overall factor at this place: The service! From greeting to exiting the level of pampering is almost royal. Every server (we met 4) was calm, focused, attentive and knowledgeable. One of our party measures a restaurant satisfaction by the quality of service over the food. She was delighted here. So, for $75 per person this place offers great value. Given that upper end dining in ultra-touristy Healdsburg at the top 10 restaurants is horrifically expensive (ie; Single Thread), you can be quite satisfied with the Dry Creek Kitchen without emptying your bank account. read more

An absolutely lovely, sophisticated evening at a beautiful restaurant. The perfect atmosphere for delicious tasting menu. After 5 days & nights, having group meals with various friends, Dry Creek Kitchen turned out to be the perfect date night spot. The room is very comfortable, and everything looked wonderful. We went with the 5 course tasting menu, and every course was delectable! My husband did the wine pairings, which were interesting & curated by our waiter. As opposed to a set wine, there were several that went with each dish, and as the waiter got to know my husband's palate, he poured the wine he thought my husband would enjoy. Very cool way of doing the pairings. The hamachi crudo was jaw-dropping. I could have eaten a whole plate of just that. But I'm glad I only had 1 because the next courses were wonderful. I especially enjoyed the short rib angolotti, another dish that would be a wonderful stand alone, with a glasss of red. The service was friendly and attentive, without being intrusive. Really a wonderful evening! read more

I went to Dry Creek Kitchen on a Thursday to take advantage of the lower prix fixe for locals. The ambiance was nice, our waiter was great and attentive, and the wine selection was great -- especially nice that they offer some bottles at 50% off on Thursdays. However, the food was terrible. It was all incredibly salty. My slice of porchetta was about 80% fat -- I'm not sure how that got past the kitchen. I'm not sure how it's possible to screw up oysters but they had an odd crunch to them. The dessert was good but nothing you couldn't get at Big John's (the local grocery store). I'm disappointed and would hope that the standards aren't intentionally lowered for locals night. read more

Disappointing. The waiter was extremely pretentious. We made a reservation weeks ago and were seated by the door. It was cold and when the door opened we caught a breeze. Our steaks were overcooked despite being told the chefs choice. The clam chowder and peanut butter deserts were very good. If you want to be spoken down to and not listened to, you found your wheelhouse! read more

Lovely restaurant with well trained staff who were polite and attentive. Restaurant has really nice ambience. We started off with their focaccia buns, delish. We added a pork belly in biscuit appetizer $12 which was too much food when our entrees arrived. But it was very good. The plate of wild mushrooms was a huge portion and Hubby could not finish. Hamachi crudo was OK, I'd probably skip next time. The duck was really good especially encroute. The slice of breast was chewy though. I enjoyed the ice cream and sorbet. Hubby thought the tart crust was too hard and couldn't taste the pear flavor. There was more pear taste in the sorbet. Very elegant place to have dinner. Food was good and service very nice. read more

For the first time we decided to have our Thanksgiving dinner at Dry Creek Kitchen. The menu, service, ambiance, and taste of the food was outstanding. However by the end of the meal my wife started feeling bloated and developed stomach cramps. By evening she developed diarrhea which continued for about 24 hours into the next day when she recovered. I believe the culprit was clams in the shell served with clam chowder. Telephone calls to the restaurant went unanswered. Recordings indicated the restaurant would return calls the next business day. This has not happened to date. Our intent was to notify the restaurant of possible food poisoning so other customers would not be affected. Sad that the restaurant did not respond to our notification. read more

The place is beautiful inside. The food is delicious and beautifully presented. The staff is friendly and professional. We loved the room's ambiance, with fresh flowers, candlelight, and white tablecloth. The wine list is extensive, but exclusively Sonoma wineries. It was Thursday, and they offered a Sonoma Neighbor Menu. There was a nice mix of locals and tourists. The Russian River Lettice Wedge Salad was so fresh and delicious that I could have stopped there! We also tried the Fried Green Tomatoes with grilled avocado, so yummy. The Rigatoni with spicy Pork Sausage and the Crispy Duck Leg confit were delicious. Fabulous desserts! Wow! What a fantastic dinner! read more

Really disappointing experience at DCK. Party of 14 that was sat at two tables next to each other (which was nice of them). All be it, we had a young waiter, so there is some understanding/empathy there, but we were seated 20 minutes before we had any drinks and it was literally 9:15p when we got bread (8p reservation). The food overall was "fine". Nothing bad, nothing special. The figs with bleu cheese was pretty blah -- basically a cut fig that was a bit mushy with bleu cheese melted on it. The oysters were good. The avocado dish as the introductory plate was pretty uninspiring. It was a borderline half avocado filled with some sort of cheese filling, with some crispy stuff on top, on top of some diced beets. The dish really just didn't tie together much, it felt like a bunch of different ingredients strewn together, it was a miss. The duck was fine, all be it nothing special. I am probably guilty of comparing it to the masterful duck we had the evening before at Singlethread. The strawberry tart was nice (and GF!) but nothing special. It is a reasonably priced meal at $75 and good quality overall, there was just nothing special or inspiring about it. Everything felt like I could have executed it myself pretty easily with solid ingredients. Last note -- the Sommelier was kind of a jerk. Barely engaged us, gave us a few "it's a good wine" comments, offered nothing, and just waited for us to tell him what we wanted. This may have been because we asked about the Albariño and Viognier to start (instead of a higher priced Champagne or Chardonnay) and then went to a Trousseau. Little did he he know that two of us were Somms. . . . . 3-stars is a generous based on the service, but is pretty indicative of the pretty mediocre experience that DCK is offering diners these days. read more

We came up from San Francisco to celebrate my mom's birthday at Dry Creek Kitchen- and couldn't have been happier with our experience! We did the three course tasting menu after a day of wine tasting, and it was perfection- right amount of absolutely remarkable food with so many fun options. Don't skip the Local Halibut Tiradito (seriously) or the Wild Mushroom Escabeche (YUM) other favorites: the ribeye steak, Street Corn Agnolotti, and the shrimp dumplings. Our server was wonderful, as was the chef (AMAZING!) and the rest of the staff. They treated us like royalty (and we are not), and made our experience so special. We can't wait to go back, and although we went for a special occasion, we'd definitely go back for a more relaxed event or meal, as we loved the atmosphere for any event. Huge THANK YOU to the amazing staff- can't wait to come back!! read more

The DCK restaurant ambiance is very nice and the wait staff is great. Only one problem, the food is not very good. We had the gulf shrimp dumplings - they were horrible.

Beautiful menu, establishment and ambiance with scrumptious food and excellent service. My favorite was the hamachi crudo, with such balance of flavors and high quality fish. The stuffed cabbage is exciting and innovative. The seared duck was tender and paired with a deep rich sauce. The desserts were lighter than they appeared which is perfect to me. The servers were attentive and clearly knowledgeable about how the food is prepared. FYI: the bathrooms are located in another building across a courtyard in a hotel so if you have difficulty getting around, this could be impactful. The servers are super friendly and will show you the whole way over. read more

This review is for the Dry Creek hotel bar. We could not get a restaurant reservation so opted for the bar just adjacent, where the food comes directly from the Dry Creek kitchen. It was a quiet Thursday night and we almost had the place to ourselves. Jason welcomed us and instantly made us feel comfortable. He is very personable and had us laughing quite a bit through the evening. We tried multiple appetizers and things to share and were not disappointed in both the presentation and taste (the Journeyman Meat co. & Artisanal Cheese board was yum). Loved the jazz music too. Jason was a huge part of our enjoyable evening and I hope you get to meet him! read more

I am very surprised by the overall review score of 3.5. I had a lovely meal here and an overall great experience. Upon entering (we were a party of 4) the staff was all smiles and welcoming. My only complaint at this point was that they sat us right in the front adjacent to the very busy bar. Maybe because we had an early reservation at 6:15pm, so next time I will make a point of asking for a table towards the back. At least the restaurant acoustics are pretty good so we were still able to chat over the loud bar crowd. The wait staff is truly wonderful, so attentive and always checking on us. We all went with the 3 course dinners. I must say they sure don't skimp on the portions here and the price of $75 seems just perfect to me. I started with the Himachi Crudo, simply delicious and fresh. Next I had the New York Strip steak and I learned that their medium rare is really more like a "rare", so next time will order medium. It was still really great though. The desserts are really great as well. All in all we had a great experience and will return. read more

Great white table cloth atmosphere with excellent service and food that is good but not particularly memorable. A bit too liberal with the salt, I think they are riding a bit in their reputation as opposed to really leading the way. Amazing wine list though, and the wait staff is superb. An enjoyable evening but we are in no worry to return. read more
