Della Santina's

We just finished another spectacular meal paired with wines off the carefully curated wine list that stunned and amazed. Rob and his father Dan are present nearly every day, and quality is the touchstone. Our gnocchi with truffle, ravoli with spinach and brown butter, petrali sole and “flat steak” with brown rice and greens were all just spectacular (again). This place is a must-visit on the Sonoma Plaza. Oh yes, their wine bar kills it too. I’ve been a customer for 28 years, and it’s never been better. Kudos to the waitstaff and the culinary team as well.

Loved the patio!!! My meal was so good, I didn't know I needed it! The bread was fabulous. I had the ravioli with pork, chicken and veal. The sauce was divine! And since I was driving I didn't have any alcohol but I did add an Aqua Panna, it was a nice compliment to the tasty sauce. The service was impeccable. I definitely want to go back again.

We ate in the wine bar the first night and let Marco (the bartender) choose everything for us. he suggested wines for each course, they paired perfectly. We learned so much about the food and wine with his knowledge. We came back our last night in town and "Benny" took great care of us. We were seated in the patio where we felt like we were in Italy. The lasagna was perfect, but the gnochi was the best. It was soft, and creamy just like it is in Italy. Did I mention the balsamic? just wow, with the homeade bread and smooth olive oil. Every detail was chosen to make the entire experience delightful. I want to come back to Sonoma just for THIS food.

My friend and I came here for a work lunch and were truly impressed. The food, service, and atmosphere were exceptional, genuine five-star quality. Rob was a gentleman, offering his mother’s homemade gnocchi and dessert, both unforgettable. The family’s warmth and Tuscan heritage shine through every detail. A beautiful taste of Lucca — heartfelt, elegant, and absolutely worth returning for. We’ll be back!

I didn’t manage to snap pictures of our food because we were too busy enjoying it! Our waiter was so warm and welcoming. Such a friendly and peaceful environment :) we were overwhelmed by all the delicious options and were given great recommendations. Would definitely come back again!
