About this restaurant

Charming
Neighborhood gem
Good for special occasions

American bistro located in the heart of Sonoma since 1996...

"Located just off Sonoma Plaza, Cafe La Haye offers an appealingly unfussy sophistication. The split-level dining room holds just a dozen or so tables, but its open kitchen, raftered ceiling and walls adorned with modern art create a vibrant energy that’s contagious."

We greatly enjoyed our return to Cafe leHaye to celebrate our anniversary. Waitstaff was friendly, welcoming, helpful with suggestions. The menu was a mix of new offerings and old favorites, including the famous butterscotch pudding. Wine selection was extensive. Absolutely no complaints!

Just amazing!!!! Service was impeccable food clean and to die for. Expensive dinner but completely worth every penny. We both ordered the salmon which just flaked away and was perfect parings with mashed potatoes and asparagus. Wine was so-so though it didn’t make a difference. Will be back on all those special occasions.

We were seated at a table that opened directly into the kitchen and that’s all I saw of the restaurant. The light above us flickered all evening. Our wait staff must have been overworked because we barely saw him and had to have other staff get his attention. Maybe it was just a bad night but it was poor ambience and service. The food was ok, but did not make up for the rest.

I’ve always enjoyed Cafe LaHaye; I think it’s one of the best restaurants in Sonoma Valley. I was delighted to experience the same equal quality now that the restaurant is under new ownership following the retirement of the original owner. The beef carpaccio I had was delicious, and the swordfish with roasted asparagus and wild rice was perfection. I think it’s one of the best restaurants in Sonoma Valley.

We have been going to Cafe Le Hay annually for 14 years and they never disappoint. Personable service, wonderful wine list, ample servings - all out of a tiny kitchen. Go.
