Flavor Bistro

This restaurant seems to be permanently closed

We loved this place when it was in Santa Rosa. We have gone a couple times to try them since in Sebastopol and they are not open (even though their hours show they are). I've tried calling ahead but they don't answer their phone and there is no voicemail setup. I'd really like to try them again, but it seems to be quite difficult.

My family go here for special occasions, and it is the perfect place to do so. Great food, great service which means happy customer.

We visited on a Tuesday night but we were surprised at how few people there were. We were seated immediately outside. The service was excellent. The staff anticipate needs like turning on the outdoor fireplace and came at just the right time for our order and the check. My one complaint was the fact that my tiny water glass was almost always empty. The food was exceptional. The gnocchi was perfect in its pullow-like consistency. The pot pie was excellent although a bit runny (I recommend using the crust to soak up the liquid). One down side to this restaurant is the complete lack of parking. The place was empty and we still had to park quite a distance away.

My favorites are the Gnocchi Bolognese, Salmon special and the Molly's chicken. Although last time I got the chicken, it was way too salty. Wait times here are VERY long so make sure to plan to be there for a couple of hours. If you are okay with a leisurely long meal, then this is the place for you. There's one staff member who is pretty friendly, but the waiters we've had the last couple times were short and to the point. Didn't even offer up the evenings' specials. Usually I love to get their grape juice from Navarro Wines, but they did not have it last time we were there. They do have several great non-alcoholic drinks for those who don't drink. Kid-friendliness: They have a great kids menu. My 11 yr old daughter's favorite is the salmon and mashed potatoes. It's a great portion size for her.

It's impossible to have a bad meal or experience at Flavor ! We had a large party of 8 and never once felt rushed or neglected. Food was amazing and it was a birthday celebration- they came out with dessert and singing. Such great staff, food and ambience!

Food was delicious but it took a really long time for the food to come out of the kitchen.

My family just celebrated my birthday here tonight. We sat on the patio, had a wonderful meal and superb service. Thank you Charles! From Elisa and Rolland.

My family has been a fan of Flavor since they first opened in Santa Rosa. They're Sebastopol relocation is great, amazing food, excellent service and everyone at Flavor makes the experience a pleasure. Thanks!
