    My husband and I loved everything about our dining experience! Not only was the ambience beautiful, the service was impeccable and the food was amazing. And we were astounded that the 3 course menu was priced so well especially considering the quality of the cuisine. Not tiny portions either. Cannot wait to visit again!

    The table we first sat at was by the front door and cold. The asst manager was so great to let us move to a table away from the front door. The server at the second table, I think his name was Chris was not so great. Main course was not hot or warm. So disappointing.

    Stellar dinner! Have been regulars since they opened 25 or so years ago and latest visit was better than ever! The tasting menu (long or short) is a winner! Great professional service. Pricey but not by wine country standards.

    As always, Dry Creek Kitchen offers a top notch experience. Chris is my “all the time” waiter and he was in his best form once again. The dining room was full of energy tonight! Lovely holiday decorations, a festive feeling. For a cocktail, I highly recommend the Palmer Paloma! So many lovely dishes, but the standout for me was the clam chowder a la minute. I’m old. I’ve eaten a lot of chowder. Never have I eaten a better bowl. The broth was not thick with additives or flour, etc. It was smooth and tasty with the loveliest little clams sitting in the broth in their shells. The clams should have felt proud to be presented in such an amazing chowder. Poached pear and passion fruit for dessert were nice, but desserts are the one area that could use more attention. Thank you Chris and staff for another memorable evening.

    The steak for two was fabulous. The desserts were also excellent - chocolate peanut butter and the pear crisp. We may have picked the wrong appetizers and we weren’t thrilled with the Pate and the mushroom pasta (too rich for me)
