"What every Sonoma dining experience is supposed to be, detailed , without stuffy, local and incredible cuisine. Hen house on Tap , with a fluffy quiche and fries, bake Brussels with bacon. Need I say more. Reservations recommended."

"Visiting Sonoma for the first time, with so many great choices it's difficult to decide on where to eat. We went for tg&tf. The 2 dishes that everyone says are must have are the duck leg confit and the flounder. Even our waiter recommend them. So we went ahead and did it, along with arugula salad, and a pork belly sandwich. So, to be clear, everything was absolutely delicious and flavorful. The duck leg was juicy, falling off the bone tender, and a delight to eat. The flounder was a perfectly prepared flaky fillet with ever so lightly crispy crust and the potatoes and sauce did not overpower it. Nothing at all to criticize on the preparation, or on the favors. This was an awesome meal. However, was it worth $35 per plate? I'm not so sure. I've prepared flounder myself at home that is just as flaky and crispy. I've smoked chicken thighs that are just as juicy and flavorful, and a duck is just so much easier because it's fattier. I'll concede that the sauces are not something I can do. All said, I thoroughly enjoyed the dinner and would recommend to anyone who is wanting an outing with someone special."

"I feel like I lucked out while in Sonoma for 24 hours because everywhere I ate was SO GOOD. Stopped at TG&TF for lunch and it was excellent! Had the grilled cheese which was delicious. And the chips served with dishes are the best I’ve ever had! Friendly staff and was easy to walk in at lunch without a reservation."

"Came here during a first time visit to the Napa/Sonoma area and this place was highly recommended. We were able to get a relatively last minute reservation online for a party of 4, for 5:30pm. The food standouts for me were the duck liver mousse, flounder, and mussels. The steak in the steak frite was ordered medium rare but it was close to medium well. Lastly, you can bring your own wine here!"

"I recently dined at this charming restaurant, and it was a delightful experience. The atmosphere was incredibly cosy, making me feel right at home. The friendly staff added to the welcoming ambiance, providing impeccable service throughout the meal. The food was nothing short of amazing, with each dish boasting perfect taste and presentation. It's no wonder the place was bustling with lots of people, as it's clearly a favorite among locals and visitors alike. If you're looking for a place with great food, a warm atmosphere, and a friendly vibe, this restaurant is a must-visit!"
