Best Restaurants for Local Ingredients in Windsor

We have been going to Little Saint since they first opened -the first time. It has slowly transitioned into its own groove with the most delectable menu items and a completely engaging crew. Little Saint invites everyone in with unmatched beauty, everywhere you look, a lovely and comfortable space. We went for Saturday brunch. It was busy and filled up shortly after noon. The atmosphere is one that embodies comfort and nature, and the team there does a wonderful job managing the flow. We sat at the bar, and our bartender was awesome. My husband got the "blackout", a tequila drink that was spectacular. They make all their own mixes, and they are creative and passionate about their work and it shows. I had an Irish coffee since it was gloomy and rainy outside. It was completely fabulous. Little Saint's whipped creams and other creams are so beautifully constructed, beyond delicious, and my guess is most would not be able to guess plant based! We ordered several items, and as usual, were completely blown away. The salad was so beautiful we didn't want to eat it...we did, though, and it was perfection on the palate: fresh, carefully prepared, and just the right amount of dressing-more of the French style versus saturated! We also got the Tennessee mushrooms and breakfast tacos: both dishes danced in our mouths. The food here tastes like love; love of nature, love of service, love of food that is truly good for the body, planet, and soul!! Finally, we even had dessert. One affogato (as good, if not better, as any I've had in Italy) and one pear tart. Both were good enough to cause a pause so one's mouth could adjust to the flavors. We stopped and got a couple of provisions, rebel cheese and salami, to enjoy during the week. I am so grateful we have such an innovative and scrumptious place in Sonoma County. My only regret is that it isn't in Santa Rosa. Thank you, Little Saint. Keep innovating, cooking, and creating.

My sister and I originally planned to dine elsewhere, but we are so happy we ended up at Jackson’s instead! The meal was superb and the service was exceptional! We thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience and can’t wait to return and try other menu items. This time we had the chicken piccata meatballs, squash shareable, kale salad, prosciutto and pear pizza, and beignets. All were delicious!

What a wonderful family owned Italian resturant. The food is farm to table Italian. The servers do not let you run out of fresh baked bread and water refills ….spot on. The owners are great! Make you feel like family …truly a special experience. If you are going to be in Healdsburg be sure to make a reservation ahead….quality FOOD, SERVICE and EXPERIENCE 👏🎉

I always eat out on Christmas Day as I am usually a single diner. I normally don't go in for buffets, but this Cristmas there were very few options, so I decided to take a chance here. The first thing I noticed is that the restaurant was much nicer than was pictured in their post. I've been a cook and know that hot buffets are not easy to maintain without overcooking the food. I was pleasantly surprised; everything was perfect. There was a good selection of food and I was happy with them. The charred Brussles sprouts were especially good and the roast beef was RARE, like I like it. Great service. I am VERY HAPPY with my Christmas Day dinner.
