Nestled in the historic Great Petaluma Mill, the Wild Goat Bistro offers a casual dining experience in a rustic and inviting atmosphere. The charming space reflects a European style bistro with intimate dining tables, a reclaimed copper-top counter which has a birds-eye view of the open kitchen. There is additional seating available at a community farm table for larger gatherings. The Wild Goat Bistro offers up a menu of honest food that uses local fresh organic ingredients in a variety of culinary traditions. From their specialty Neopolitan style 10" pizzas, to innovative salads, to scrumptious main dishes, to sharable small plates - it is a seasonally changing menu that has something for everyone anytime of the day. Special attention is given to making nearly the entire menu gluten-free - even the amazing home-made desserts. Their carefully curated wine list includes wines from hand crafted, small production local vitners as well as wines of interest from around the world.

    Wouldn’t return. Over priced for what it was. Ordered the polenta fries and they lacked flavor. We ordered a number of other dishes for the main in our party of four and all were average - nothing to write home about. We ordered the cake and it seemed old, it was extremely dry.

    We really enjoyed our dinner, sitting in the outside covered area. The tables were not close together, the temperature of the room was good, and the service was great. We started with the roast potatoes, and they were delicious. Then we got Halibut, Power Bowl Salad, and Chopped Salad. All were delicious, and large portions. In all, quite a nice place with great food. Highly recommended!

    Amazing dinner out - amazing food at a fair price. Rare these days. I am celiac and appreciated being able to eat from an entire menu - all gluten free or can be prepared gluten free. Cakes are to die for - it was my husband and While I noted it and mentioned to the server they did not acknowledge it in any way - given it is known for cake I thought maybe a candle. We are of the age that it really doesn’t matter and did not diminish our wonderful experience in any way. But good to know if you do want a little extra celebration for someone.

    asked/reserved for standard seating but as given the choice of sidewalk or outside seating (wtf!?!?).... service so slow and and forgetful; after a long wait to place order, was told an item was not longer available, only to later see a table adjacent to us receive the item (and they order after us)... ordered pizza and revived what looked like flour tortilla slather with ketchup and something that was supposed to be basil... i guess no cheese (wtf?!?!?)

    The food here is amazing. There are plenty of options for everyone, including vegetarian, gluten-free and vegan. We sat in the back dining area with a group of 5 for my Father- in - laws birthday. Even on a Monday night the room was full. It was so loud that it made it difficult to hear one another. The food was wonderful though and they allowed us to bring in a dessert from my Sisters bakery. I always recommend this restaurant to others.

    I realized I had been there before and wasn't that crazy about the food. It's not bad, but it's not "tasty" perhaps very healthy conscious. We had lamb burger and Tacos. Tacos really was tasteless and the black beans that came with it was very plain. I'm sure it's intended to be blant and healthy but it was not my favorite. Service was good.

    We have many favorites at Wild Goat. Their soups are always superb. I love the Shepherd's Pie, the kung pao Bussels sprouts, the polenta fries, Get Chopped salad, lamb burger, Dos street tacos, and best of all, the four cheese fig and pig pizza. All mind-blowing good.

    The dinner was fine, but honestly it was a bit of a disappointment. The quality of the food was less than what we have experienced and expected in the past, and I can't understand why. We will still go there, but everything from the service to the food quality was a bit off, and maybe it was just the one night, but for a place that we have eagerly recommended in the past, it was a disappointment. This isn't just meant as yet another snarky response. I want to like the place and plan to go back, but I hope whomever reads this takes it seriously and has a look at the way things are going right now, because it was a noticeable dip from the quality we have previously experienced there. I've just noticed that there was an ownership change, and I can't help wondering if this is the problem. Whatever it is. Please take this seriously. We loved that place, and Petaluma has already lost enough of its good restaurants over the past five years.

    We are faithful regulars and have loved every experience we’ve had over the past 6 years. This is the one time our server ignored or seemed very distracted. Small things that we asked for (ie. 1 water, etc) we’re ignored but okay. It happens. We watched the server walk by many times checking on other tables ???? The only time she was attentive was when we flagged her down to pay our bill. At that point we chose to go elsewhere to get desert and drinks.

    Cosy environment and good quality food with very good service make this a restaurant I know I will visit again. Seven of us sat in the back room and all enjoyed different entrees including lamb burger, chicken, pork chop, pizza and quinoa cakes all of which were tasty, hot and enjoyable. We ordered three different desserts for the 5 of us who wanted some and that was plenty. Carrot cake, salted caramel cake (very rich) and fantasy cheesecake which was voted the one we like the best. Service was good, polite, but not intrusive. So many wonderful restaurants in Petaluma but this is definitely one we will return to.

    We visited this past Saturday and were very disappointed. One person sent back their lamb because it was too rare, the pork chop was tasteless and barely warm and while the pizza had good flavor it was cold. We did order two deserts and both were very good.
