    My husband and I asked several locals where to eat while in Petaluma and every single one of them told us we have to try Central Market. We loved our dinner experience. Great service, wonderful fresh ingredients, high quality food and an inviting atmosphere. We will happily return any time we are in the area.

    This such a gem. Tony and his crew do an amazing job to make you feel welcome. Then the fabulous food. The Lamb necks with root vegetables and the Wagyu beef with arugula salad and Pomme Frits great presentation and yummy my only regret is we didn’t have a warming candle to keep them hot so we could enjoy every last one. There were enough to share with the 4 of us. The wine was great and then desserts got a big rave from our friends who were always searching for a sticky toffee pudding like they experienced in Europe. Thumbs up a great contender! We will be back especially since Petaluma will be our new home starting in March 2025.

    Have eaten here many times and never been disappointed. Just had a lovely Monday dinner with a dear friend. The food was great but our server Raquel was the best. Warm, informed, timely, and very pleasant. It was a very nice evening.
