Enjoy casual Tuscan cuisine in our historic stone building and Italian garden, near Sonoma Plaza.
The Depot Restaurant in Sonoma is a charming neighborhood restaurant located in an historic stone building just a block off the Plaza in Sonoma. Locals and visitors to the Wine Country enjoy casual Tuscan-inspired cuisine in the cozy dining rooms, and on the patio terraces surrounding the shady garden with Italian pergola, outdoor fireplace, and reflection pool.
Food is a passion at the Depot Restaurant whether it is making house made salumi and charcuterie, or handmade pasta, or fresh ricotta. In addition to products made in-house, the Sonoma Valley wine country around us offers an abundance of new artisanal products. Enjoy a trattoria-style lunch or dinner...or just drop into our garden for informal small plates of antipasti and a glass of wine. The focus is on casual Italian comfort food--served in an informal wine country atmosphere.
