   This was our second visit to Kancha and it remains a well priced excellent meal. We did the New Year's tasting menu with the wine pairing. Each course was well prepared and presented, and most importantly tasted great. The wine selection paired well with each course. The environment is very comfortable and relaxing, and the service was great.

   We would totally recommend this restaurant for special occasions or a date night. Everything we ordered was top-notch. Difficult to pick a favorite. Food was spiced and presented beautifully and wine flights were fun and delicious! Will definitely return. Service was excellent, and we were wonderfully cared for!

   Great food and fun place that is still working out the “kinks”. Really nice but inexperienced, overworked servers and understaffed. Our food literally came out one plate at a time so it took over two hours but we didn’t mind as we were relaxing and enjoying the evening. We would go back.

   Kancha Champagne Bar & TapasResponded on December 6, 2022Hello TracyA, Thank you for your feedback and we are so happy you liked our cuisine. We had a very slim wait staff the night of your visit. We appreciate your patience while we were taking care of the other guests. We like to course things out but definitely not to the extend of one plate at a time. We will address that with our staff. Again we love that you guys were enjoying your evening and We are happy that we provided great food for you and your guest. Angel Cayllahua,

   The food at Kancha was outstanding. Delicious, innovative, creative, aesthetically pleasing dishes. Our table enjoyed the tuna tartar, classic ceviche, mushroom causas, mac and cheese with crab, scallops, and the macha cheesecake with miso caramel. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully spiced. We also ordered champagne flights which unfortunately arrived long after most of our dishes had been served. The server apologized as they had run out of glasses and she was washing them in the back. The owner eventually came out and generously poured our flights, but the lengthy delay left our beautiful dishes cold. The noise level was high with the long narrow room and tin ceilings. Suggest they consider playing some culturally appropriate Peruvian music rather than the techno pop that was thumping in the background above the din. The owner and server were well aware of the timing issues and were apologetic, and appropriately comped a few items. All in all we thoroughly enjoyed the experience and will recommend Kancha and hope to return soon for a smoother and more aptly timed dining experience. The exquisite food surely deserves another chance.

    This restaurant is clearly a chef’s passion project as the food was absolutely incredible. However, the service was clearly struggling even though it wasn’t very busy. Wine list was solid - BTG average was $12. Food was great but in my opinion, overpriced for tapas. $17-$25 adds up quickly when your ordering several different plates. The pork belly lettuce cups in particular were pricy and in my opinion way to fatty. I understand that it is indeed pork belly but it was 90% fat. I cant say I’ll be back soon. It’s a new restaurant and probably needs time to work out the kinks.

    Kancha Champagne Bar & TapasResponded on October 18, 2022Hello SofPic thank you for checking us out and for your honest review. We are really happy that you though our food was "absolutely incredible" (your quote) and sorry we missed the mark on the pork belly. Looks like your portion had an uneven ratio. we will talk to our chefs to make sure that is not an issue moving forward. When you are ready to come back. I would like to personally make a reservation for your and send out a pork belly prepared by Chef Angel. email us at info@kanchasr

    Nearly all dishes the four of us ordered were very good to excellent. A major exception was the artichoke--too tough with no real "meat." They were out of two food items and out of the wine I wanted to order. Our server was seriously overworked, so we had to approach the bar twice where our wine had been poured but not brought to our table. They need to get the staffing right. There is nothing special at all about the decor/furnishings/ambience. The price was quite high so the value was so-so at best.

    This is a lovely tapas menu anchored with south of the border flavors. We felt that many of the dishes went well together. The prices all seemed very reasonable and their 4-6 happy hours has discounted wines and appetizers! Willi's has some excellent competition now! The menu is seafood oriented so a hearty meat eater might not be satisfied here.

    What a wonderful dining experience. We arrived before our reservation and decided to sit at the bar and take advantage of happy hour with some oysters and champagne. The bartender did such a nice job of suggesting a champagne to accompany the oysters that we decided to eat dinner at the bar. The bartender suggested some dishes for us to try, which were all outstanding, as well as provided a wine pairing for each dish. Not until I did a search of Kancha on my phone did I realize that the bartender was the owner of Kancha. He was so unpretentious, welcoming and gracious. I would recommend this restaurant for its nice environment, outstanding food and service.

    Kancha Champagne Bar & TapasResponded on October 19, 2022thank you 😊 We are really happy you enjoyed your dining experience. I am glad you liked the pairings I prepared for you two. :) Angel Cayllahua

    Our waiter, Angel, really made a huge difference in making our experience exceptional. He went above and beyond to accommodate our food restrictions and got us green tea where other waiters said they did not have it. He made it happen. The place is nice and the food is a great mix of Peruvian and Mexican food. Highly recommended and ask for Angel.

    I was really excited to try this place. Given the prices I expected much better service. When we arrived they didn’t seem to care that it was our anniversary, we had mentioned it in the booking. I mentioned it at the table too. We asked for water three times over twenty minutes when we first arrived. The oysters were fresh but 50% had shells in them. They came out before the champagne and without a spoon. It took almost 45 minutes to get the champagne. Food was mostly excellent. Small portions, big price. The Mac and cheese was boring and tasted like it was hot but sat in the window for a long time and got cold. They also offered free drinks to three tables near us, but didn’t acknowledge our anniversary at all. I figured someone called out sick so they were understaffed and that’s why the service was bad, but when I stepped outside for a little air three of the waitstaff were standing around outside talking to their friends at a table. Dinner for two with a bottle of champagne was almost $200… would come back for happy hour oysters but don’t come here for special occasions or romance. They’re not up for the challenge in front of house which is a shame because most of the food was excellent. The outside light shines right in the eyes of diners inside too. Needless to say we didn’t stay for dessert.

Arrived a few minutes before happy hour ended and was able to take advantage of ordering a few dishes. Everything was amazing, oysters were so fresh, ceviche was the best I've had since Peru and the pork belly lettuce cups were so delish. Highly recommend, we'll be back!!!

    The food was fantastic. I’ve eaten here twice in a month because the food was that good. Note because it’s a tapas type restaurant the bill may be higher than you expect similar to the price point of willies wine bar. I hope this restaurant does well in Santa Rosa as we can use a place like this.

    The freshness of the food and the flavors were very good. We went for happy hour so this was mostly good value. The regular menu is pricey though. Santa Rosa is a town for tourists I know, but also residents and I for one can't go out to places where a glass of wine is $18. I fear the high rents on 4th st force restaurants to set their prices so high. This is an ongoing challenge that sees restaurants open and then close all the time downtown. Good luck to this new place, and maybe they can offer some more affordable options.

    Kancha Champagne Bar & TapasResponded on July 17, 2022Thank you for joining us for happy hour and we are happy to hear that the food was fresh and tasty. We are glad you took a look at our full beverage book, The $18 glass you were referring to is Hands of Time 2018 Sonoma County Pinot Noir by Stag's leap Wine Cellars which has a higher price tag due to it's winery history. However, this is the most expensive red wine by the glass on our menu. Our reds by the glass range from $10 - $18. We hope to see you soon. Cheers, Angel Cayllahua

    From Angel’s call in the afternoon to my return call to Paige, the front of the house managed our reservation with style and true hospitality. We are a party with a wheelchair and write the details in our reservation. This is the first restaurant to call us to check in on our wheelchair needs, table height needs, and just to confirm what might be necessary for a great experience. When we arrived, Paige greeted us and sat us at our table - #31 - perfect for our party of 4, one with a wheelchair. Ozzie followed with water and a huge smile. Arriving in time for happy hour, we enjoyed a dozen miyagi oysters with a pineapple mignonette, Classico ceviche, and yuca fries, sparkling wine, and sake - Ozzie delivered all perfectly - taste & presentation were excellent. One of us had never had Yuca fries; she wanted more - and loved the spicy aioli. For our main courses, we enjoyed a quinoa Caprese salad, Limena Causa, very adult mac ‘n cheese with crab - pasta so soft, sauce so creamy, crab like buttah, all with a little kick, a few orders of pork belly lettuce cups - the only dish that really needs a little help - pork belly a bit dry/overcooked, and lomo saltado - beef empanada again served with the spicy aioli - delicious. Service by Paige and Ozzie was impeccable. Angel, the owner approached our table and asked for feedback - what a smile and friendly restauranteur. Great job, everyone!
