Farmhouse Inn & RestaurantGreat RestaurantLovely calm atmosphere with friendly knowledgeable staff. The food is beautifully presented with portions being of a European size so 3 or even 4 courses are easily manageable. The signature rabbit main course and chocolate souffle dessert dishes were light and cooked to perfection. We also choose the wine flight, each dish on the menu has a wine pairing which the Sommelier explains why it has been selected and where the wine is from. This is an expensive Restaurant, but our meal was excellent.6/15/2013 12:00:00 AMWine country favorite...still!We went to Farmhouse Restaurant 4 years ago when we visited the Russian River Valley area and upon our return this year we just had to return. The food was again fantastic...I did not enjoy the service as much this time however as our waiter seemed to be trying too hard. In any event, the food was great, as is the setting. My wife and I both had the Rabbit, Rabbit, Rabbit and it was so enjoyable. Next time we travel from Texas to visit the Wine Country, we will return.6/7/2013 12:00:00 AMOustanding serviceEvery staff member that attended us was courteous, solicitous and clearly anxious that we enjoy the evening. Put that with extraordinary food (our party of 4 had minimal duplication) and the special evening became just that, special.
At the top end of the price range for sure , but well worth the experience.6/2/2013 12:00:00 AMA lovely experience for aA lovely experience for a special occasion. I would not recommend taking children there, however. A young couple with a baby arrived and did their best to keep the noise level to a minimum. The staff was gracious to them but it couldn't have been a completely comfortable experience for them.6/1/2013 12:00:00 AMSonoma County StarThis is one of the finest restaurants anywhere! This was our first visit but it was worth the wait. Excellent service by Jen and team, creative food and excellent presentation and of course a stellar wine list.
Five Stars...flawless!6/1/2013 12:00:00 AMFarmhouse treatOutstanding food, country setting (lovely dining room and gardens), and service, but unlike some similarly well-reputed restaurants in SF, some of the servings here will actually satisfy a true hunger.6/1/2013 12:00:00 AMbeautiful dinner and servicebeautiful dinner and service and incredible wine (of course, it's Sonoma!)5/25/2013 12:00:00 AMBirthday DinnerDecided to visit Sonoma County for dinner for a change as I live in Napa. Choose Farmhouse Inn for its reviews and it lived up to the rating and expectations. Food, service and ambience was 5 star. Since they don't have a full bar, they need to increase the wines by the glass program. The corkage fee is over priced for a small inn.5/24/2013 12:00:00 AMperfect Anniversary dinnerfrom the greetings and "Happy Anniversary" on our menu, to the perfectly arranged appetizers and tender lamb, it was a most memorable dinner - better experience than that famous restaurant in Yountville5/23/2013 12:00:00 AMBeautiful Dining experienceGreat friendly service. Eclectic wine selection. Nicely prepared food. This is the way a restaurant should be. It comes a a cost. It's a beautiful quiet setting. Nice place for a splurge.5/20/2013 12:00:00 AMHappiest BirthdayI took my partner here for his birthday. I had let them know in advance that we were celebrating his birthday and asked for a quiet, out of the way table. We sat in the garden view room. From the special "Happy birthday" printed on his menu through all the attentive service, to the little candle on his dessert we thoroughly enjoyed our evening. Farmhouse is a MUST in the Russian River Valley. We are already planning to return in January with a colleague.5/13/2013 12:00:00 AMNotably small portionsLoved the atmosphere. Too pricey for the small amount of food. It reminded me of a tapas cafe. Wait service was incredible. Wine list-nice. Again way too overpriced for just one glass of wine. 15.00 for one. The biggest gem of allwas the impeccable English gardens. So amazing! The gardens were so well taken care of. I hsd heard that the gardener keeps the gardens in check five days a week. Lovely enough for Mother's Day dinner.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat choicesLovely setting, excellent ingredients and preparation. Loved the price fixe format with ample choices.5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMOne of the bestSuch an amazing restaurant. There is a reason they are Michelin rated. Amazing food paired with impeccable service. Food and wine pairings could not have been more perfect. Our sommelier was friendly and shared everything about the wines we had. A must experience in a must experience part of the country. The dishes were unique, fresh and flavorful without being unapproachable.5/2/2013 12:00:00 AMAmazing in ForestvilleI grew up in Forestville and never really had a chance to go to the Farmhouse.

WasVery nice restaurant. Was a bit surprised that there was not a full bar considering the Michelin Star but the food made up for it. All of the food was expertly prepared and the service was top notch. Price was fair for the quality but too expensive to go with any regularity Overall, it was an amazing meal and I would definitely recommend The Farmhouse Restaurant to anyone looking to splurge on a special occasion meal in wine country.3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMLovely dinner!
