Sonoma County Restaurant Week Returns February 23 – March 1, 2026
If there’s one week each year that food lovers should circle on their calendars, it’s Sonoma County Restaurant Week. This delicious celebration of Wine Country’s vibrant culinary scene features restaurants throughout Sonoma County — including many beloved spots right here in Santa Rosa — which serve up specially curated menus and irresistible deals that highlight the best of local ingredients, creativity, and hospitality.
Sonoma County Restaurant Week is a tradition that stretches back more than a decade. Since its inception, the week has grown into an annual culinary tradition that brings locals and visitors together to support small businesses, discover new favorites, and enjoy the diverse flavors that define Sonoma County’s food scene. Over the years, the event has also become an economic boost for participating restaurants during the quieter winter season, drawing in diners with prix‑fixe menus at approachable price points.
Best of all? You don’t need tickets or passes to participate. Just make a reservation (highly recommended for popular restaurants!) and dine at any participating restaurant as often as you like throughout the week.
