There is no doubt that the restaurant is decorated in a grand style, but I cannot say that for the food. The brunch menu anyway. I ordered the Eggs Florintine and I would give it a grade C. OK, but not spectacular. There was a slice of bread, but no butter. My request was granted. No jam was offered. The... more

Six of us were in the Sonoma Russian River area to do the Winter Wineland by limo (don't like to drink and drive). We tried to get into The Farmhouse but it was already booked. So was Charlie Palmer's Dry Creek Kitchen. I couldn't find anything suitable for a wine dinner with friends on Trip Advisor (my first choice always)... more
