I just happened to be passing through Santa Rosa on the way back from a business trip right around lunchtime. I scanned Tripadvisor for Santa Rosa restaurants and Willi's Wine Bar popped up. At a glance, it had good reviews, so I thought I'd give it a try. It was a nice afternoon, so I opted to sit outside on... more

This was a very cool place. We had just arrived in wine country from Chicago and wanted something unpretentious and seating outside, as well. We thorougly enjoyed the atmosphere and the food. more

What a great little gem in Santa Rosa. After a business trip, I decided to spend the day checking out wineries in Sonoma. I was hoping to find a place where I could sit on my own at the bar, perhaps strike up a conversation, and enjoy a good meal. Willi's was the perfect fix. They have a great, eclectic... more

What a great place! From the moment we walked in the door we were greeted with warm smiles and pleasant personalities all willing to assist with pairings and answer questions about the tapas menu. We followed our waitress, Salym's suggestions and we were pleasantly surprised with the plates that came to our table. Do not to miss the wild mushroom... more

My fourth time here and have been to their seafood place in Healdsburg also. The menu is always new, fresh and full of flavors you can savor in every bite. You can share 3-4 small plates. Fun and inexpensive. The atmosphere is lively and can get lound and crowded. But worth it all. Reservation recommended more

Went here on a Saturday night, party of 8, after a day of wine touring/tasting in Alexander Valley, and spent the night nearby in the Railroad District of Santa Rosa. Very cozy, low, intimate lighting, but lively atmosphere with a live bar scene. We had a nice table near the entrance that was partially screened off by a partition, so... more

My wife, a friend and I received a tip on the place while visiting Napa/Sonoma and made a point of going. It's located in an unassuming building in an non-touristy area off the beaten path. Unfortunately it was closed on Sunday's for lunch. We wrote it off as we were staying in Napa and did not intend to be in... more

Good but a bit overrated. Tasty tapas & nice interior ambiance (unless you have to sit outside and don't want to on a cald winter night when they are packed, even though you had reservations..) Plates are so small and pricey and with the wine you will spend quite a bit to get the tapas/wine country experience you crave. more
