SANTÉ RESTAURANT Santé Restaurant is the Inn’s premier dining room and has earned a national reputation for its outstanding food. Recipient of the AAA Four Diamond Award and Michelin designations, Santé is amongst the top-rated restaurants in the greater San Francisco Bay Area. Condé Nast Traveler said ‘it’s worth a special trip just to eat here’ and Gourmet Magazine calls the food ‘the best of the new Wine Country style.’ Only the freshest local produce, meats, poultry and seafood are used in this Sonoma restaurant to create elegantly simple dishes that let the natural flavors of the food speak for themselves. A wine list, honored with Wine Spectator’s ‘Award of Excellence’ features over 500 Sonoma and Napa wines.

Michelin Star - Santé 2012 Review: “... each dish is refined and focused on presenting a high level of sophistication, as haute techniques meet high-end ingredients….descriptions are exacting in their ability to convey the many harmonious components of each plate...”

Zagat – Santé 2013 Review: “This is a class act” affirm admirers of this Sonoma stalwart, which ups the ante with “amazing” but “nonfussy” Cal-French cuisine “prepared with real dedication” and paired with some 600 “excellent” vinos (“try the tasting menu for the full range of flavors”); “polite” service suits the “exclusive atmosphere” . . . it’s “definitely” an occasion to “splurge and enjoy”.
