“Thank you for good service“

“Great food great atmosphere!“

“When it comes to breakfast in Sonoma county this place is one of my favorites. The food here is amazing, Love the salsa and the gravey here to add to my food. Coffee here is great and always a fan favorite, but if you like to live on the wildlife they do offer a few drinks with alcohol. I go here strictly for the breakfast menu, but the also serve lunch type of food which looks amazing.
I am always welcomed here with a friendly smile and greeting which makes me feel like I am wanted here and thankful that I stopped by for a meal and a friendly conversation.
The atmosphere here is like you are walking back into time as it has a feeling of a old fashion diner. The place makes you feel like you are walking into a family dinner with how they treat you. Parking is easy as they have a huge lot and plenty of parking.
When traveling out that way make sure to make a stop and take a chance on this gem. I promise you that the staff and food will not let you down.“

“I had a meal tonight at Louie’s Fine Foods and experienced an amazing Pork chop. Bruno’s flavorful marinate and the cooking expertise of Sam and Santos made it a meal to remember. Of course, I can’t go without expressing my Appreciation of the excellent service Kay gives each customer. The friendly atmosphere and the wonderful Food makes it the Place for families to eat. I highly recommend it.“

“The food was excellent. Fresh and delicious. The service too. I love the atmosphere. I wish you had a location in Napa!“

“I recommend their tasty burgers and sweet potato fries. Their homemade pickies are good too“

“The food is quite good, a good breakfast depending on the taste of your choice to start the day. Carlos'Country Kitchen has a wide variety of breakfasts or lunches to enjoy with family, friends, couples, or yourself. There is also a good choice of lunches to eat. In my opinion, it is important to look at the extensive menu to decide wisely which breakfast or lunch you prefer because it is a very craving choice that you want a little bit of everything due to the delicious food. I can assure you that you will see a different meal than the one you ordered, you will have a craving to try a new dish on your next visit to the place. The important thing is to taste the food and you will love it!!! The service is good and friendly!“

“great food great service, biscuits and gravy are the best ever since 1985“

“We love having this gem close to home! The staff is so nice, the food is great, and we love the vibe (music, TV, nice outdoor eating area...a bit of everything for everyone). I have two little ones and they eat all their food & love their ice cream too!“

“This is the best picture I’ve taken of a meal anywhere. The food was sooooo good that I couldn’t take a “before” picture, only an “after”. This was grilled avocado. I didn’t even know one could grill an avocado, nor did I know that an avocado could be improved on. Now I know. 😋“

“Been waiting to go for months. Finally went and the food was absolutely amazing but we never where checked on. I just wanted a water and salsa and was looking the whole meal for an employee. made eye contact with our server and she ignored me 3 times, then brought our check and said you can pay whenever. not even how was the food. my husband had to get me my water as he fully finished his food while I was still trying to stall because I wanted salsa on my 25$ omelet. 😕“

“atmosphere A+ service A+ food A+ everything on the menu I've had so far is a must try! everyone is so friendly, definitely recommend!“

“A classic cafe serving a breakfast staples, hot coffee, and the perfect amount of catchy décor. Good afternoon going to this location for quite some time. The food's always delicious, the eggs are always made perfectly, and the coffee's always good too.“

“Eddie's kitchen, the food was excellent. I had chicken alfredo and a desert to die for. It was the chef favorite dessert. Eddie Jr. was very polite and very knowledgeable about the items on the menu. I love Eddie's kitchen. I will go there again if ever in Santa Rosa.“

“food was great and service quick ..well worth it“

“The food was delicious! Portions were large. Service delightful and attentive.“

“Never anything to complain about.“

“Ignore the rotten score on Facebook. This is one of the best breakfast places in Santa Rosa.“

“Good food and very sweet service. If latte’s were on the menu that would be even better!!!“

“Sick place good food good beer. Bartender are cool as f$&k great place to get some food and drank!“

“Best breakfast served all day. Delicious crepes & sandwiches to die for. Good selection of entrees too“

“The pork belly skewers are delicious. And they label directly on the menu what is gluten free son/or vegetarian.“

“Great food at a great price! Delicious burgers, perfectly cooked and seasoned fries, and a great selection of milkshakes! I like the option to choose thick shakes, they are way better that way (and can last the drive till I get home to eat). Knocked off a star for being in a strip mall, but it is centrally located and if more upscale, it would command a higher price, which I am trying to avoid. All the kids working there are great, from the younger managers sweeping and cleaning up, to the counter folks looking to help and making delicious shakes- props to the owners for running a well oiled machine :)“

“The staff is amazing and the food is delicious. Fast service and quick refills on your drinks.“

“Such a cute Snoopy-themed cafe! The prices are very reasonable, the portions are generous, and most importantly, the food is really good.
The AC is great, so it’s a perfect place to hang out and cool down during the summer. You can also watch the ice skating right next to the cafe, which makes the whole place feel even more fun and unique.
Great for both kids and adults. We really enjoyed it here!“

“The pumpkin cinnamon roll was perfect. Not too sweet and the slight hint of pumpkin flavor gave a unique twist. I also enjoyed my sesame matcha.

A bit slow with the drinks coming out but I didn’t mind the wait.

Every dish was flavorful and well-prepared, and the staff went above and beyond to provide friendly, attentive service.

Great selection of beers and cocktails, excellent food, and an all-around amazing vibe. Highly recommend — definitely a 5-star spot!“

The Cotati location is lovely, but the vibes in SR are cozy as well.“

“Such a great neighborhood bar and grill! I really enjoyed the atmosphere—it was relaxed, welcoming, and had a fun vibe. The happy hour was a great bonus, and the food was absolutely amazing. Everything was delicious, and it’s definitely a place I’d come back to again.“

“Shout out to Chris the manager who went out of his way to accommodate us. We are Hyatt members and thought we could use our club access awards. Unfortunately this particular restaurant is its own identity and therefore they don’t allow you to use the awards. Chris however made an exception and allowed us to use them. It was a very busy day with a bit of a wait but we were really taken care of in an amazing way. Thank you!“

“Easy to find parking, buffet style breakfast every Sunday--then mix it up with different types of stuff: waffles, pancakes, scrambled eggs, pastries & fruit etc...
(Kid-friendly place) Brunch -$10 for children and $20 per adult--all-you-can-eat!
That's a good deal ?
We dined in/ eggs benedict for me and for my husband he ordered corned beef hash.
And it was cooked perfectly.
came to the table lickety split.
This is really good food...
The staff were very friendly and helpful.
I will have to come back and try the buffet, maybe even Dinner.
Their dog friendly for service ?‍ ? animals“

“Joey’s Pizza Restaurant and Gary’s Belvedere Bar 727 Mendocino Avenue and College Avenue Santa Rosa, California Down the street from the Junior College Pizza combinations, homemade meatballs, thick beef with bean cheesy chili fries, and baked sweet cheesecake in an old vintage house with high ceilings made of dark wood? Where is this place? Downtown. This place exists. Special thanks to our hostess at the Pizza restaurant upstairs Miranda! She was amazing. Her personality and conversation about the bar Belvedere added personality to the already breathtaking restaurant. The bar with a bistro in a city that closes early? Yes, bring a party for the large round tables or sit at the bar. In the Sonoma County Wine Country right next to Santa Rosa High School and the Junior College, you have a high volume bar pouring whiskey, tequila and brandy with a pizza oven upstairs serving chicken wings, fresh Sonoma County style Cobb Salad, baked mushrooms, garlicky pesto, a taste for everyone including those who want deliciously ugly, tasty, nasty chili cheese melted Monster style. We still think about the chili fries hours after eating. For months since I moved to Santa Rosa from Las Vegas, I have heard about the Belvedere from people at the gym that replace protein powder with high intensity intoxicated cocktails on Friday and Saturday night, but I didn’t care to indulge underground as much as I wanted to eat pizza with Italian sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms, before going down into the dungeon. The place is popular. Miranda helped us out like a Santa Rosa tour guide. She told us about the bars and their personalities. We had a great meal hanging out in the restaurant before mixing drinks downstairs. Santa Rosa is lucky to have Belvedere. The bar keeps people from driving to San Francisco in the rain the weekend.
