Walk into TORC and you might notice the music. It's rock & roll, blues, or soul, and it's undeniably on. You might notice the energy — it's high. And you'll definitely notice our bar. It's busy serving well-made cocktails and pouring rare wines we're proud to say you probably won't find anywhere else by the glass. There are no white tablecloths. No dabbing the corners of your mouth. No pomp, but lots of circumstance. And perhaps the only reason you noticed the aforementioned is because you haven't tasted our food. That's when the music fades into the background. Join us.

    My husband and I had a lovely experience at LaSalette. The host was very polite and prompt and our server was knowledgeable, patient, and kind. Now for the food: I have food allergies and intolerances so eating out can sometimes be very tricky, I let the server know my special needs and she quickly directed me to items that could be modified or were already compliant. They offered my husband a roll and me gluten free crackers, which was thoughtful to provide. My meal of oysters, a whole Branzino, and a duet of sorbets was perfect. I felt perfectly comfortable and confident eating here. The next time we are in Sonoma we will definitely be going back. Thank you for a delicious meal. My allergies are gluten, dairy, eggs for the people who suffer my same afflictions.

    It is difficult to rate a restaurant when it is a holiday fixed menu. Food was ordinary, nothing memorable, service was ok, a couple of mistakes in bringing orders to the table. Lamb chops were tasty. Would try it again when not valentines day

    Live Jazz music upstairs on a Thursday night - so fun! Great food and service and music - excellent cocktails, steaks, chicken Milanese and broiled halibut. Our party of 10 were well taken care of by the entire staff! Awesome vibe in a historic venue that can’t be duplicated - join the Dashiell Hammett Society! Love this place and will return.
