    What an AMAZING experience we had at Gatehouse Restaurant! Everything was perfect from the warm greeting to the kind, dedicated service we received from Josie ... as well as everyone else. The FOOD was incredible ... every course was perfect and they accommodated for my gluten allergy with ease too! We all rated it a 10 out of 10! We will definitely be back!

    Great tasting foods. Portions are light so you may want an appetizer and/or salad in addition to the meal. Everything was really tasty and cooked perfectly. I’ve been in louder restaurants for sure but I would’ve preferred a little more quiet so that conversations at the table could be held without significant raising of the voice.

    Spectacular! Fantastic food and service. Great spot for a special date night out. My partner and I had the chef’s choice tasting menu and it was amazing. Several standouts were the day boat scallop, duck, and bread, butter and jam dessert. If heading to Healdsburg definitely include Valette in your plans.

    We all loved our meals!However,the plates were not warm so it rushed the heat right from the food.But the flavors were great!Too bad about the plates-its a silly issue that shouldn't even come up in an a la carte setting.Expensive but well worth the atmosphere and service...Next time we look forward to a hot plate-we will return!!

    We celebrated my boyfriend’s birthday at Auro and we both loved everything about this restaurant. The food/ presentation was AMAZING, service was perfect, everyone was so welcoming and friendly. We got a tour of the restaurant and got to meet the chef which was a unique experience. We will be coming back for sure.
