ANTS!!!! There were 6 ants IN my Shirley Temple, I'm scared and disgusted. And my appetizer plate had crumbs on it and was CLEARLY dirty. Food was good though.

We hired a private room for an event. Alice was the most helpful and lovely host, we were so welcomed. A restaurant full of good food and run with love

Four of us had an awesome experience last Friday night at Jan’s 256. Our server, Alice was especially attentive to our needs and wants. Our meals were spot on as usual. Jan’s short ribs are the best in town and the fish and chips were perfection. Always enjoy being at 256.

We had a family getaway to Dillions Beach and decided to make the short drive to Petaluma for dinner. We are so glad we chose this restaurant. The atmosphere was great, service was first class and every meal was phenomenal.The owner was sitting at the table next to us and she would check on our food and even gave our girls some chocolate chip cookies for dessert. Overall this was just a very pleasant evening out & one of the best restaurant experiences we’ve had as a family. Anytime we are in the area we will be coming back here to eat and I’d recommend this place to anyone looking for good food in Petaluma.

This place was awesome!! Walking in, the atmosphere was beautiful. High ceilings, rustic mixed with a modern flare, fells very homey. There are several large tables that accommodated our family size. The service was impeccable. We felt like part of the family. The food.... Wow! Everything from the pizza, chicken strips, steak and even the fish and chips we impeccable. We were astonished that a restaurant with such variety, hot the mark on each plate! Highly recommend!!!

Excellent service. Terrific craft cocktails. Food was top notch and the fantasy cheesecake was amazing.

Don't past this place by. The service was delightful and the food was perfectly yummy. Not mention the ambiance and the huge bar area! A great place to have lunch before walking the shops in downtown Petaluma. The burger was hugeeeee and the fish and chips were awesome! Definitely going to stop in here again for a cold brew, lunch and watch the game on the large television screens placed accordingly around the restaurant. And there's a cool pizza oven. Check it out!

Drinks were very good, food was fine. We were there on a Saturday night after a local festival had just wrapped up. The dining room is just one big space and was crowded with several large groups. It was very loud. Our waitress encouraged us to relocate to the bar and it was a little bit quieter but certainly not an intimate dining experience!

Food was delicious and would like to come back and try other menu items. Friendly service and a huge place.
Fantastic fish and chips, the crunchy fried batter was excellent they have a nice batter situation on that fish, great french onion soup(best I've ever had), yummy cobb salad with nice greens and great bacon and I think some honey mustard based dressing that was also great. Loved the coleslaw with my fish and chips even though I don't usually like slaw. Great experience. My fiance got a pot pie and seafood pasta both were above average, though not quite excellent like my food was. 5 stars altogether though ?

Honestly while the cocktails are big they are not that good. The risotto was virtually flavorless and it was $3 extra for a single slice of overcooked bacon. Happy hour menu is decent but would probably only come here for beers and the cheesecakes from now on.

I had my baby shower the month before Covid here and went into labor with our second child the night we had dinner here as our last date night. We love this place to say the least. We've always had great service, great food and it's a big enough restaurant that we can bring the kids and not feel like we're bothering other guests (at least we hope not haha)
