Although the presentation is nice, the unifying theory of pretty much everything from starters through to mains, was lack of flavor. I’m not a heavy salt user (that’s the Mrs. and she wasn’t even present) and I appreciate subtle flavors, but pretty much everything lacked umami. Although the duck confit portion of my dish was done well, the vegetable medley it was served with was bland, and the kabocha squash was almost raw. The ahi tartare was served with severely underripe avocado and also was very devoid of flavor. That being said, my mother did like her halibut dish, and the steak frites was solid. Service was good but I can’t recommend if you are looking for a satisfying dining experience. Better options exist.

It was my first time here and just stopped by for a few drinks and I loved it. The bar tenders were friendly and the espresso martini was the best I’ve had. Cant wait to come back to try the food.

Wife and I had a very enjoyable meal. Modern, clean and dimly lit inside. Very cool bar overlooking the street! We opted to eat out back in the courtyard, due to perfect weather and had the space to ourselves majority of the night. Portions were very large and each dish was perfectly cooked. Roasted chicken breast and thigh were incredibly tender, wish there was more of the corn, beans and bacon underneath. Pork chop was also perfectly cooked, we devoured both dishes. We each enjoyed a glass of wine, cant comment too much on the list because we didnt look so closely this time. Servers were very attentive. Good value, not overly complicated food menu, high recommend.

We’ve been here twice in the past two weeks over the holidays. The spoonbar restaurant is just wonderful. From the hostesses who greeted us to the wait staff and of course to the folks in back making all the food. It’s all great. Definitely worth a meal when you’re in Healdsburg.

Upside: My dining partner said her dinner was delicious. Her New York steak was a thick, medium rare and accompanied by thick asparagus with an excellent bernaise sauce. She thoroughly enjoyed her steak frites.

My meal was delicious, with a simple, rich, buttery vegetable broth. The mussels were perfectly cooked and fresh. The scallops, though scant, tough and dry, were fresh.

The shishito peppers were very good, but I would skip the icky mayonaisse-packet flavored supposed to be aioli(?) dip that came with it.

My leek and potato soup with black garlic was velvety, creamy and delicious. I enjoyed its wonderful flavor, yet would have enjoyed it more had it been served hot instead of arriving lukewarm/tepid, as if it sat too long in the kitchen (The restaurant was less than half full, and the private affair in the back room and patio was about over). The soup came with two squares of pleasant, crumbly bread, not quite focaccia.

Our wines were delicious. The winelist was refreshing with a good variety of many wineries that were new to me instead of the staples on so many winelists in the Bay Area wine country.

The feeling of the place was festive, and fun. Our waiter was very nice, and we would return in spite of the glitches.

Downside:

My “Scallop Cioppino” was improperly named and described on the menu (See attached photo). With three small scallops, 2 clams and about 6 mussels, and a small amount of sauce (not cioppino, more like a bouillabaisse with mirepoix, which was delicious, yet surprising). Perhaps if the dish were called mussels with scallops and 2 clams instead of scallop cioppino, it would be more honest.

Since my meal of mainly mussels was served in a wide bowl without a plate underneath it, there was no place to put my cutlery, which kept slipping into my soup. I ended up shoving my spoon and dinner fork between the empty shells of the tiny bowl for shells. Also, the shellfish meal was served without a fishfork, which was eventually supplied when I requested one from our waiter, who was delightful.

The two slices of grilled bread served to sop up my sauce were inedible as they tasted purely of burnt charcoal.

Although I wrote that this was a birthday dinner on the Open Table reservation, mentioned it to the host upon arrival, and again to the waiter at some point, when we received the chocolate pot de crème my mom ordered (Which the waiter assured us was quite large, and enough to share), it arrived without a candle, and was simply placed upon the table.
Pot de crème. Very small amount of chocolate crème (see photo I uploaded today, May 24, 2025), donut-hole took up most of the coffee cup, but delicious. Waiter said the kitchen just shrunk the size this week, after it was much smaller than described, too small to share.

The decaf French press coffee seemed like burnt beans, and was undrinkable.

Wednesday is fried chicken night. Due to a mis-print on the menu we were upgraded to the crab cake. It was EXCELLENT.

The beet salad was the star of the night. Fresh, large portion, killer flavors.

Service here was the best. Quick and attentive.

I had there version of an old fashion and it was nice. The spicy margarita was bomb.

The fried chicken was good, not great. A little over cooked.

Food was decent but experience was very poor. Waited an an unreasonable amount of time before any staff came to the table, one of our 6 entrees came way late – almost when the rest of us were finishing, and one of our guests found some plastic in his steak. It was also colder than what a restaurant should be, such that 2 of our guests needed to wear coats during their meal. Will not be returning.

The location of Spoon Bar is ideal, with an amazing ambiance. We arrived around 5:30 PM, and it took some time before the restaurant started filling up, allowing us to enjoy some private moments. The servers were professional, and our orders were taken and delivered promptly.

For drinks, I ordered a margarita, and it was perfectly made. They also offer a mid weekly wine special by the bottle, and I suggest going for it.

The dinner bread was warm, fluffy, and delicious, with the perfect amount of butter. We ordered the tuna tartare, which was amazing, although the crispy element was over-fried. It would be better if it were a light golden brown rather than dark brown.

I ordered the wagyu steak fritters. If anyone understands how wagyu is prepared before it reaches the plate, they would know why it’s important not to use heavy rubs or too many spices—you want to savor the steak’s perfect nature. However, it was slightly overcooked.

For dessert, we ordered the vanilla ice cream, which came with two small biscotti and espresso. The vanilla ice cream was average.

We ate here on a Friday night. The front of the restaurant was brightly lit and busy. We were seated in the back of the restaurant, in a quieter, dimmer area. The doors to the outside patio were left open so it was a little cold, as well. Best to request sitting in the front area. We were also seated at a table that was sticky and stil had smears from the diners before us. We had to request it be wiped off.

Our server was a very nice young man. He didn’t have any suggestions from the menu, and he also kinda laughed when we asked if there were any specials for the evening. Being served did take quite a long time, and our server apologized for that.

Our dinner was surprisingly very good. We enjoyed the wings–rather spicy but very tasty and a large serving. We also chose the scallops and risotto entrees. Both were very good, well presented, and large portions.

Overall, a good experience. If I ever ate here again, I would just request a table up front. The atmosphere in the back with a lot of empty tables was a little depressing.
