Best Historic Restaurants in Petaluma

Food is always great. Prices are so expensive but I understand inflation is a real thing. The restaurant added a 4% living wage to the check which I thought had been outlawed (or banned) but I guess not?!?!

I’ve eaten here several times and they have excellent gluten free protocols and I never get sick from gluten exposure. Having Celiac it’s hard to find a place that’s so good at gluten free cooking. I’ve had really great meals here in the past, this time slightly underwhelmed by the polenta fries. Kinda bland and the sauce was bland. My chicken apple sandwich in gluten free bread was very good, and the butternut squash soup was very good. Service is always good. I ate in the front room, I actually prefer the back room dining area it’s a little less hectic and quieter. Overall you won’t be disappointed with the food or service, I just wanted to give a very honest opinion on my meal. I really was only disappointed with the polenta fries.

Lunch after a matinee is one of our Holiday traditions- this year it was just perfect. The restaurant was packed with diners waiting for tables lined up at the bar, so thank goodness we had a reservation (on a Monday at 3:00PM- who knew?). Once past that minor inconvenience, everything was absolutely wonderful. We shared the Tortelloni appetizer and even though I am an accomplished Italian home cook, it was the best we have ever had. Then we shared the Jack LaLane salad - partly because we grew up with him on TV and the nostalgia was undeniable- and it was perfect. It had a respectable amount of seafood and avocado and was very large. My husband said his Manhatten was excellent. We left vowing to come back soon and often.

We choose Street Social for every special occasion. The food is prepared with the utmost care and originality. My husband and I can always find several items on the menu that we love, even with one of us being a vegetarian. The owners who run this sweet restaurant are the chef and the main server who are a delight to know. Highly recommend!
