We absolutely loved our experience at this restaurant. The staff were so warm and friendly and the atmosphere was very cozy. We were visiting from Chicago and this restaurant was booked by our travel agent. Great choice! We sat at the chef’s counter which was such a cool experience. We would love to visit again!

Went here over the weekend and it did not disappoint. We were seated immediately and service was excellent. We all got plates to share as everything on the menu looked amazing. The whole branzino, salami pie, and wagyu zabuton were spectacular. Would definitely recommend but sure to make a reservation this place was busy.

Had an interesting outing to the restaurant, and were seated in what I believe is the main dining area, with nice ambiance, though in somewhat close quarters. Our server, Julie, was great and steered us in the right direction when ordering.
My standout was the Sweet Potato Soup and the Wagyu had delicious flavor, but was somewhat chewy, which I found odd.
Overall, the farm-to-table concept was successfully achieved at this quaint and remote dining spot!

Michelin Star restaurant with great pizza! We started with the grilled cauliflower and had the blanco (?) pizza. We also had an amazing server (we’re forgetting her name) but she helped us make our honeymoon very special. Definitely a restaurant to keep on the rotation if you’re in the area. Just make sure to have a reservation well in advance!!

Terrific! Clearly the best food I have had in all of Sonoma! They lived up to their michellin star. I had a sweet potato soup which was perfect temperature for the cold evening, followed by a pasta suggested by the steward who was extremely sanguine and helpful.

However, the standout was the dessert at the end which was a glut of perfect sweetness with crunch and mash in the center. Offcourse, it was not part of the main menu but a surprise special of the day!

I also happenned to meet two very nice people, one of who was celebrating his 60th birthday! This was so fun.

Time to serve: 4
Taste: 5
Cleanliness: 5

Recommended Dish: Ask them for their special!

Definitely recommended

My family and I absolutely adore the Glen Ellen Star! Kudos to the team for always making the night so special! Sheila was our server, and what a wonderful night we had with her! We started with the clam dip and brussels sprouts. Let me say, get the clam dip, and thank me later. For a main I had the Lumache dish, and the meyer lemon sauce just tied all of the components together beautifully. The shrimp was cooked to perfection, I could eat that every night! My mom got the TCP, a crowd favorite and my dad the steak. For dessert we couldn’t pass up the coffee cake, infact my dad and i refused to split it and got one each. Save room for the coffee cake, again, you don’t want to miss it. Always a quality meal and time at the Star, we will be back!

One of the best Italian restaurants I’ve been to. Branzino was our favorite, brussel sprouts and focaccia were also amazing. Great service too. Recommend chef’s table bar seats.

We absolutely love Glen Ellen Star, and prefer to sit at the chefs counter so we can see the chefs in action as they prepare food.

The food is incredible. Full stop. Superb wines.

Great service and charming atmosphere.

Glen Ellen Star: small, stunning, and exactly what you need.

This little boutique spot may look unassuming, but it delivers serious flavor with soul. I came in on a warm evening, not super hungry, and ordered the gazpacho with fresh bread as my main—and wow. It was everything: cool, vibrant, layered with just the right balance of acid and sweetness. The bread? Warm, crusty, soft inside—melt-in-your-mouth perfection.

It hit every note:

Light but satisfying

Simple but elevated

Comforting without being heavy

And because it was so perfectly portioned, I had room for dessert, which was absolutely worth it. (They rotate their desserts, so trust the pastry chef—you won’t go wrong.)

Why I’ll be back:

Inventive but grounded seasonal menu

Intimate, stylish interior—perfect for a relaxed dinner

Friendly staff who clearly care

Thoughtful portions that leave room for indulgence

And that gazpacho… I’m still thinking about it

Glen Ellen Star is the kind of place that quietly wins your heart. Not overdone. Not trying too hard. Just beautifully done food in a space that feels like home—if your home had a wood-fired oven and a pastry wizard in the back.
