Monti’s is always good and I go there often! It’s really improved with recent update to space and menu.

Service and food was impeccable!! Wonderful dining experience!!

Second visit after an incredible experience in Sept. This visit was also incredible. Service is excellent and not rushed. We chose a dining room table as it was cold outside (note you can select that on OpenTable as the patio while enclosed and with heaters seemed cold to me). There are numerous “rooms” and cubby’s to sit. One cool place is high top tables in the bar. Very cozy and warm. But we chose the dining room. Food was super tasty and enjoyable. See comments on individual dishes with the pictures attached. One picture we missed was the spinach salad. So yummy! Bacon, walnuts, capers and goat cheese make this a winner. We split it and it was a nice salad before entree especially if you have an appetizer. The wine list is extensive with a generous California selections. We enjoyed a nice Papapietro Perry Pinot noir single vineyard in part to try out this producer (wonderful cherry nose and smooth and tasty). Will have to now go check out the winery! Going to be tough and have something other than the carbonara but will need to as the menu is very extensive. Only criticism is sparkling water is $9 a bottle. That seems excessive. Pretty amazing when that was my only criticism!

The food. The service. The food. The beverages. The food. The environment. Oh, and the food. I’ve had lower quality food with much higher prices in other places. Everything was amazing from soup to nuts. Or in my case, from butter lettuce salad to Crêpe Suzettes. The staff is kind and friendly yet completely professional. Don’t miss this.

Willi’s is a fun dining experience that surpasses most dining establishments in Santa Rosa. We love the shared plates with smaller portions that allow us to sample a variety of the creative culinary options they offer. Definitely try their version of Oysters Rockefeller, the warm spinach salad and the Waygu beef tarike. The Moroccan lamb is amazing! They offer a unique selection of wines, too. The Sancerre paired with the oysters- mmmm! The wait staff is the best and always always friendly. Highly recommend Willi’s!
