Glen Ellen Star is a great neighborhood restaurant! They continue to be recognized year after year by Michelin. The food is fantastic and the veggies in the cast iron skillets are to die for! You have to try the brussels sprouts! They are famous for them! We also recommend the brick chicken or a wood fire pizza! You won't want to miss this restaurant while you're in Wine Country.
Hamel winery is a beautiful winery in Sonoma! They are known for their reds and they are all really good!
