Our wait staff were kind, welcoming, knowledgeable and very attentive. Food was beautifully presented, delicious and unique. Menu was cohesive with ample seasonal choiced. Dessert was the best I think I've ever had. Well priced.

I absolutely loved this restaurant! The food was beyond amazing and the service was great! I highly recommend the Feijoada if you love Brazilian food! The atmosphere was also gorgeous and the outdoor patio seating was so enjoyable.

My wife and I had a wonderful dinner. The meal was delicious and the wait staff was excellent. I had the Portuguese Pot Roast and my wife had the Seafood Stew. We also indulged in dessert with a delicious Port. Very satisfied and would definitely recommend.

If you are in Sonoma and looking for something special and not the usual kind of foods, I highly recommend La Salette which serves modern takes on Portuguese dishes. We ordered the Cod Cakes for our appetizer, it was delicious! For our lunch entrees, we ordered the Spicy Piri Piri Chicken Salad and the Arroz a Valenciana dishes and both were amazing, and yes, I ate that beautiful flower on top! The service was outstanding, the ambiance was superb and the experience was memorable.

Over the top amazing unique, high quality food, exceptional yet unrushed attentive service. Cucumber gazpacho was divine, scallop appetizer was my main entree and was the best I’ve ever had. Scallops were crisp, well seasoned on the bed of puree was divine. My husband had the chicken piri piri salad. He loved the seasoning and the crunch of fresh unique veggies was a great compliment. We rarely order dessert and since our food to this point was so fantastic we had to try it. The caramel cinnamon trio was velvety, smooth, silky with a bit of salt and sweet that was so worth the splurge. The outdoor patio with flowers, proper sun/shade that was both quiet with some good people watching of the darling alley was a perfect spot. It’s clear the owner and chef care about their customers.

Absolutely loved this restaurant. They gave a glass of sparkling rose for our anniversary. They refreshed one of our white wines on the sampler when my husband accidentally dropped some food in it. The heirloom tomato salad was delicious. The Portuguese “pot roast” was amazing. All of the desserts are sample style so you get 3 in one. Service was excellent. Highly recommend. Only drawback is they don’t have their own bathrooms.

We wanted to get out of SF to enjoy some nicer weather and found ourselves enjoying a beautiful day in Sonoma. After checking out the restaurants around the main square, we decided to try La Salette, as its Portuguese menu stood out with its unique offerings and tasty options. Shortly after ordering, we were provided with a free amuse bouche from the chef, shrimp croquettes with a slightly tangy sauce and salsa brava. The shrimp croquettes were crispy, yet also light and zesty; a beautiful start to the meal. I also ordered a caipirinha, my go-to cocktail when I lived in Brazil. La Salette's caipirinha was extremely delicious, with a healthy dose of lime and mint that washed down nicely with the cachaça. For starters, we began with the grilled octopus and tomato salad. The grilled octopus was cooked perfectly and paired nicely with the red wine vinegar, fingerling potatoes, and pickled seaweed. The heirloom tomato salad was absolutely fantastic, as the tomatoes were perfectly ripe and were complemented nicely with the chickpea puree and feta cheese. This was my favorite bite of the night. For entrees, we tried the bacalhau no forno, the caldeirada, and the açorda de Trigo. My mom loved the bacalhau no forno, which was a bit lighter than she was expecting but had a great punch of flavor between the salted cod, potatoes, onions and olives. My dad and I also really enjoyed the caldeirada, which had a generous portion of sea bass, scallops, clams, mussels, potatoes, shrimp, and linguiça in a flavorful broth. This reminded me a little bit of cioppino given the copious amount of seafood, although it had more of a velvety tasting broth without the flavor of tomatoes. Finally, my partner really enjoyed the açorda de Trigo, which had a perfectly poached egg that created a velvety sauce over the farro, mushrooms, and pine nuts. For dessert, we all split the fruit plate, which was the highlight of the meal. We really loved how the dessert was more of an assortment of tasty dishes that complemented each other nicely, rather than one single dish. All of the components of the dessert were fantastic: the poached pear had a nice spiced taste, the macerated mango was super sweet and tangy, and the pineapple semifreddo was velvety and tangy. But, the passion fruit cannoli was truly unreal. The tang of the passion fruit and light crisp of the cannoli shell were incredible. Would highly recommend trying this or their other desserts, as they all looked incredible. All in all, given the fantastic restaurants in Sonoma, La Salette is a great choice if you're looking for something unique that highlights local fruit and produce, as well as meat and seafood options. We would definitely come back here the next time we're in Sonoma! EDIT: Forgot to mention that the service was incredible and very attentive. Everyone was super nice, friendly and helpful, and made sure every part of our meal was enjoyable and to our liking. Thank you!

Excellent restaurant! Overall food was delicious! Was given a complimentary note sized appetizer (amuse bouche), which was not bad. Asparagus bisque - smooth, creamy texture, rich flavor depth from well-seasoned stock, showcasing the fresh asparagus. Pork belly - almost perfect. The meat was partially melt in your mouth. Some parts tough and chewy. Pass on this Fisherman stew - excellent! Great taste, and the best part was the seafood was perfectly cooked. Prawns had a great smokey bbq flavour , The clams and mussels was cooked just enough that it retains it's sweet, juicy umami and oceanic notes. Most places tend to overcook a little. This was just right. The only complain would be the mussels were rather small. That's more of an ingredient issue. The caramel dessert was excellent. Small details like the candied nuts on the side completed the whole dish Service was prompt and efficient. Great vibes

Amazing place with amazing food both flavor and presentation. Wish could order a lot more especially the dessert. Ordered the roasted octopus, cod cakes and fruit desserts. Got to taste their cheese potato apps and coconut balls. Highly recommended.

We had lunch today, It was our first time, as we moved back here just a few years ago. Everything we had we had was superb, so much flavor and a beautiful presentation. The Roasted Octopus was perfect, will always order it when I return. Paella - my husband had, he said it was the best scallop he's ever had. I had the Pork and Clams, beautifully cooked. The sauce was crave-able! It all was terrific. We sat inside, loved the room, we felt so relaxed, rustic yet elegant. We felt very taken care of by the warm staff. They all made our special occasion one to remember. We can't wait to go back.

Delicious experience! My expectations were very well managed when we arrived at this place and I was positively surprised. For a place that far away from Portugal, they absolutely nailed it. I have tried Portuguese cuisine before and when done well, it’s absolutely delicious. This place has an amazing team and management behind it and we (a party of 4) got an amazing meal. Every single dish you see on this review was spot on, well cooked, immaculate presentation and delicious taste (I tried them all from my friends🤪) all delivered with the maximum care and customer service attention. Not that common that I go all the way to Sonoma, but I will make sure that if there next time, I will definitely try this place for dinner. Well done guys!

Absolutely delicious food, quietly tucked down an alley off the Sonoma square has been serving top quality dishes for over 25 years. We return again and again...the quality remains intact.

It was our first time trying Portuguese cuisine. This is a great restaurant nestled in Sonoma just tucked away behind the Sonoma square near Sotheby’s. We wanted to enjoy what would connect us with this new cuisine. We ordered the ones pictured before and were definitely satisfied. Food is pretty good and satisfying. Service is polite and fantastic! Their bread was yum too! Love the evening.
