La Gare French Restaurant - Santa Rosa, California

Monika Karthäuser

Warmes leckeres Brot und gutes Essen. Dessert auch empfehlenswert. Ein Stern Abzug, weil die Klimaanlage zu kalt eingestellt ist und wir im Sommer trotz Jacken sehr gefroren haben.

We stumbled upon this gem on our girls trip. La Gare has been a staple in Fine French Cuisine in Sonoma County for 44 years! Second-generation family owned and operated, they take pride in utilizing fresh, locally-sourced ingredients to create dishes from Swiss-French. Their food was simple and delicious. Service was 10/10!

Excellent food! Excellent service! Great ambiance! This is my favorite restaurant in the Santa Rosa area. It has been around for years. Their French inspired food is still the best!
I always look forward to their Beef Wellington,
followed by Chocolate Mousse. This time their included soup was a great Minestrone! My wife usually has the escargot in garlic and parsley butter. We share the fresh bread dipped in the escargot butter. They also have some good champagne selections like Schramsberg and Veuve Clicquot.
They also have old favorites like Chateaubriand for two, and Cherries/Berries Flambee.
The crafted wood furniture, scenic artwork, alphorn, and Swiss cowbells all contribute wonderfully to the French-Swiss ambiance.
All on all, my favorite pick for classic French dining.

La Gare was good. Our party ordered the beef Wellington, the New York steak and the broiled chicken. Entree came with minestrone and salad which were delicious. All entrees were juicy and tender but the only thing I didn't appreciate was everything was drenched in butter. Other than that, the service was good and atmosphere was nice to sit outside.

What a wonderful place to celebrate my husband’s birthday. When we first were seated at a small round table the seats were wooden and the waiter came over to offer us cushions. That was very welcome and thoughtful. . The atmosphere was warm and reminded me of the restaurants we visited in the south of France. My husband ordered the rack of lamb and I ordered the special which was sole wrapped around a crab cake. We both loved our dishes and everything was delicious!! The servings were so generous that I wound up taking half my entree home. The service was great. So happy we found this place. We will definitely return.

Nice French restaurant. The interior was a little dated and my seat was very hard, but the food and service were great.

I ordered the rack of lamb and shared it with a friend. There was a reasonable $9 split plate charge for the extra soup, salad, and sides. Others in our dinner party ordered the Beef Wellington, Sole, Salmon, and Veal Cordon Bleu. Everyone enjoyed their meals. We love the complimentary crusty bread too.

They get an extra star for the escargot which was delicious. Otherwise this was a 1 star review because we waited 2 hours for what amounted to “french style” american diner food. The daily special king salmon was not king salmon. It was cheap, overcooked farm raised salmon. One of our side orders never arrived. The server was nice but the experience was horrible. Not coming back.

Wonderful Birthday dinner with family and friends! Varied menu, my cake was brought in but served by our waiter!
We had a private area for my celebration!
We indulged in Beef Wellington, ocean caught Salmon, and many other delights!
