Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Glen Ellen

The food choices make it hard to decide what to order! The tuna and the turkey sandwiches were piled high and tasty. The Cobb salad was super fresh and abundant. Brenda our server was attentive and took good care of us. We'll be back to try different dishes next time!

A lovely experience--the garden area was warm and lively. The food was delicious, and the wait staff very friendly and helpful. Excellent!

The wife had the Crispy Panisse Cake, she it was delicious, along with the Heirloom Radishes which were fresh. I had the Wild Flounder Meunière which was grilled perfectly with the inside of the fillet very moist. Soup of the night, pepper purée was so creamy. The fig & arugula salad was so satisfyingly good. We are looking forward to the next time we go to Sonoma, because we are coming back to “the girl& the pig”.

A Perfect Lunch Spot in Glen Ellen My wife, Barbie, and I had a wonderful afternoon exploring Glen Ellen, and we decided to stop for lunch at The Mill after finding its stellar Yelp reviews. The Mill’s location is enchanting—nestled beside a fast-moving creek. Parking was convenient in a nearby lot near the bridge leading to a charming complex of restaurants and shops. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by the owner (Sanjeev), who escorted us to a cozy table for two right at the creek’s edge. The lunch menu was thoughtfully curated, offering a variety of dishes and beverages, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. On the owner’s recommendation, we started with their special bread, a favorite among many Yelpers. It was fresh, perfectly seasoned with olive oil, garlic, and parsley—absolutely delicious! For our main courses, we had the clam chowder and the spicy chicken salad. Both dishes were flavorful, satisfying, and generously portioned. Whether you’re on a wine-tasting weekend or simply a local out for a scenic drive, we wholeheartedly recommend The Mill at Glen Ellen. It’s the kind of place that combines excellent food, picturesque views, and genuine hospitality to create a memorable dining experience.
