Really delicious menu and service! Attentive, as well as intimate seating area. The menu was great for trying new things as well as elevated comfort food. Don't skip the onion dip!

Three stars and those stars are thanks to the kind and polite waitress. Cocktails were good too even if a bit pricey. Other than that, on basis of price and presentation this restaurant is clearly trying to position itself as upscale but just misses even basic points on food. Case in point, 4 prawns that weren't even deveined and had little seasoning for $20. Fairly simple pastas were so salty that we had to send it back. A rigatoni is a pretty basic dish. The carbonara was all cheese and salt (again). Did not finish. Disappointing as I believe the overall setting and ambiance is not bad. Service was pretty good too. But the dishes need to match their price level and increase in quality and inspiration. I'd be happy to adjust my review once there has been a menu refresh.

Great restaurant, wonderful food and a very relaxing ambiance. Recommend for a special dinner or for a date night! Will be back.
Be the first to ReplyCozy place off the Healdsburg center with a wooden outdoor
Cozy place off the Healdsburg center with a wooden outdoor warm feel inside. We ordered and shared a few dishes which was plenty between three people. We had a refreshing kale salad, the squash (kind of misto/tempura style), fried chicken and dessert. My favorite was the squash with the parsnip purée on the bottom - such a lovely mix of ingredients. The squash was hearty with a dense texture, which we loved. Our waitress was really good, giving us wine suggestions that paired well with our food.
Be the first to ReplyChalkboard used to be one of my favorite restaurants.
I recently had to move to SoCal, but when I come to town for a visit, I make going to Chalkboard a priority. It was a slow Tuesday when I went in. The place was practically empty and I still had to wait over 20 minutes to be seated. The waitress put water on our table and didn't bother to pour water into my glass. I feel like the first glass should be filled by the waitress before she walks away. For my appetizer, I got the cheese board. The waitress brought the cheese board to my table and explained how one of the cheeses on the board was "gross" and said that most of cheese was not to be eaten. Everything on my plate should be edible. The portion size for the cheese plate was also surprisingly small for the price. I also got the duck rillette. It was overly salty and didn't even taste like duck. My husband got the lobster pasta dish for his entree. The lobster was overcooked, was served cold and the whole thing had no flavor. I got the pork belly pasta entree. It was over salted and the pork belly was super dry. I took two bites and was done! It truly saddens me that this place isn't what it used to be. I won't be going back.

Was super excited to visit @chalkboardhealdsberg as I've been meaning to go here for years. Overall, there were some hits (beet salad) and some misses (halibut), but the folks were nice, the vibes were cool and I'm a sucker for a dog friendly patio. Would be willing to give it another shot.

We had a great experience at Chalkboard! Enjoyed the heirloom tomato starter, delicious rigatoni and fried chicken. The staff was warm and attentive. Our favorite meal of the weekend. Will plan to return next trip!
Be the first to ReplyFood was great.
Calamari was absolutely spectacular. Service was dialed. Ordered the cheeseboard, an app (see above) and the lobster linguini. Why not 5 stars? There was a baby (an actual baby) at the bar. Not for a minute....for an hour. The parents kept lifting it and smelling the diaper. I was dying and holding back my laughter because as a father of 4 (I get it) but this would NEVER EVER EVER happen in my hometown of Seattle. Not sure if it's the culture here, but there are still State laws and no one knew how to handle these young parents. I'm actually going to "up" the rating to 4 stars because my wife was cracking so many jokes it made the dinner so entertaining. The baby disappeared at one point and I swear it was making a Negroni for other customers.
Be the first to ReplyWe were surprised to be so disappointed by our experience
We were surprised to be so disappointed by our experience at Chalk Board. All the reviews were so positive! Yet our food experience was not good.The Crudo featured hamachi. The fish had great flavor but it was overpowered by the large French fry-cut apple slaw. And there was so much apple slaw that one would think it was the feature of the dish rather than the fish. Okay, that's not so bad. What's next?The French onion soup. Oye! All I tasted was vinegar. Just a forward acidic flavor, and that's it. No depth. Did the head chef taste taste this soup? I can't believe it passed muster. My pork chop entree was over cooked so it was dry and chewy, and I didn't even detect salt and pepper seasoning. I sent it back. My boyfriends seafood risotto tasted strangely sweet. Then he told me the menu listed relish as an ingredient. Why would anyone do that? And the scallop on top was over cooked and chewy. He sent it back. The server and manager were extremely gracious and apologetic, and took all the food off the bill, which was great. I just can't believe that our experience was unique when everything was SO off.
Be the first to ReplyWaitstaff was super nice but food not so much.
My partner's dish came out 15 minutes before mine and we had to ask several times before they brought it. The side vegetable dishes were so undercooked that weren't edible. Have been here before so not sure what happened but I will not be going back soon.
Be the first to ReplyYou can always depend on Chalkboard for a very good meal
You can always depend on Chalkboard for a very good meal and last night was no exception. Arrived at our reservation time and were promptly seated by the hostess. Chalkboard has a nice varied menu, in the mood for pasta, fish, seafood, meat, no problem they are all coveredPork belly sliders are a favorite starter here, impossible to resist. Delicious as always! For entrees I had the pork chop which was topped with a fruit chutney, onions and carrots. Very tasty but just a touch dry. DW had the roasted halibut, came with wilted greens, asparagus and topped with Hollandaise sauce. Another tasty dish with a bit too much Hollandaise but was easily scrapped off. Also ordered the carrots which were glazed with brown butter and other goodies, these were awesome.Service was excellent, our server had good suggestions and was a joy to talk to. Added bonus, last night (Wednesday) is "locals" night. What does that mean, 10% off your dinner bill and free corkage. A nice savings! As we usually bring wine this was a a nice touch.If you will be in Healdsburg give Chalkboard a try, you won't be disappointed.

Came to Chalkboard Restaurant in Healdsburg on the spur of the moment on a Thursday evening. Each of us ordered a glass of wine. Shared a Chalk Hill Estate Green Salad to start. We ordered the Porcini Gigli and the Meyer Lemon Mafaldine and sort of shared our pasta dishes. Both pasta were excellent. We got a dish of the Sauteed Spicey Greens to cut the richness of the pastas. The greens were nothing special. I got the Flourless Chocolate Cake with a scoop of Mocha ice cream, and my dining companion got a solo scoop of Mocha ice cream.

Four of us went to chalkboard for dinner the day before the NYE. The restaurant has been on my list for years since it's opening. I'm so glad we got to go and the experience was phenomenal. Food: 4.5, service 5We ordered:Crudo of the day with hamachi Beet saladFrench onion soup Pork belly biscuits Old bay strozzapetiCod with asparagus Duck confit (not pictured)Porcini Gigli (not pictured)Everything was freshly prepared, beautifully executed and elegantly served. The cod was a tad strong taste due to too much vinegar. We mentioned to the server. He apologized and offered to remake or an alternative with no questions asked. We asked for the remake and it was delicious when it came out. The chef came to the table to make sure the dish was cooked to our satisfaction. What a great service!!Thank you for helping close our 2022 on a high note with such a great memory! We will definitely come back again!

This is a lovely Healdsburg restaurant and great for a romantic dinner. Wine list is extensive but we went with the Peay Pinot noir which is outstanding. They have in-house pastas which are very good, recommend the porcini gigli which has a creamy sauce that is very yummy. We had the seafood risotto which had a lemon flavor that paired wonderfully with the perfectly cooked scallops. With that the braised short ribs that were succulent! Highly recommend this gem. And after dinner, one (or two) can go cuddle in front of the fireplace in the adjacent hotel library room.

Chalkboard for our last dinner out in 2022! What a way to end the year on a high note!He started with a glass of Armida Zin and the Pumpkin Soup. I had the Chalk Hill 'Estate Red' Bordeaux Blend and French Onion Soup. Both soups were delicious and cozy on a cool, damp night, and mine was surprisingly lighter than expected. Of course there was cheesy goodness, but I appreciated that the broth wasn't overly salty.We then shared the following:-Roasted Beet Salad-Wilted Spinach Salad-Porcini Gigli (a staple house-made pasta on their menu, and a favorite of ours)-Rigatoni with short rib (another standout house-made pasta)-Fried ChickenEverything is awesome! (Do you hear the Lego movie theme song now?!)We loved it all but over-ordered for 2 people! We wrapped up the leftovers and enjoyed round two of this meal at home!We'll be back in 2023 to try more. Note: they're open today/New Years Day for brunch, and the staff mentioned that they hope to offer brunch on a more regular basis this year.

After dining at destination restaurant Single Thread the night before we ended up here for brunch and this menu also impressed! Tried the heirloom polenta bowl with spinach and egg (love a good savory breakfast bowl!), Bahn mi sandwich with fries and the cucumber gazpacho - all delicious and beautifully presented! I also asked for something spicy and they brought me a wonderfully different homemade chili salt that the chef created. I will gladly return when in this area. They don't have their brunch menu posted on their website for some reason, so, including the summer 2022 brunch menu in my review.
Be the first to ReplyThis was such a nice restaurant we were finally able to try.
You have to enter the hotel and turn left to a door that leads you into a bar that opens into a restaurant in the back. It almost seemed like a best-kept secret.We had their chicken sliders for an appetizer, duck, pork chop, and botanical cocktails. I would come back when the weather was maybe warmer to sit on the patio. I would say this is one of the top restaurants in the town of Healdsburg to get a good taste of Sonoma County dining. With all the restaurants to choose from, this would be a great place to try crafted dishes.
Be the first to ReplyGreat option for a nice dinner in downtown Healdsburg!
Great option for a nice dinner in downtown Healdsburg! Since I was in town on a super rainy day, I lucked out and was able to make same day dinner reservations for an early dinner at Chalkboard. They were starting to get busy at 5:30pm on a Saturday, but we were seated right away. I loved how their indoor dining had some socially distanced options, but was still cozy. I ended up trying:-Pork Belly Biscuits (Arugula, Half Sour Pickles, Sriracha Aioli, 4pcs/$21, <a href="https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=TlfnxGbfZ8vZDdPw8oo0sg&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg">yelp.com/user_local_phot…</a>): Good, but I would have preferred if the biscuits were more buttery/flaky. Also, each bite was really small, and it was hard to get the full flavor of the biscuit and pork belly.-Cabernet Braised Short Rib (Polenta, Sautéed Greens, Fresh Horseradish, $30, <a href="https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=rM4liVZGASvK84C54NTHWA&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg">yelp.com/user_local_phot…</a>): Yum- this was a really tender and flavor short rib dish. The polenta was also smooth and creamy, and all the ingredients went really well together- recommended!-Seafood Risotto (Diver Scallops, Shrimp, Lemon Caper Relish, $29, <a href="https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=gRN_Bhj4CYtyR2WXrbjeLQ&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg">yelp.com/user_local_phot…</a>): I'm usually not a big fan of risotto, but tried a couple of bites and it was creamy and well made. However, there was a tiny bit of seafood smell when this dish arrived. Service was great, and our server was friendly and checked in often. I would come back if in the area to give their other dishes a try. Only indoor dining was available since it was winter. Parking was slightly difficult to find since there wasn't a lot of street parking; however, there was an open air parking lot a block away.
Be the first to ReplyWe came here for our anniversary and had an okay time.
The ambiance is well done, especially the patio where we ate. The wait staff was very nice but unfortunately the service was also the worst part of the experience because it was so spotty. I think we saw our waitress twice for the whole meal because she was having to manage so many other tables. The timing of the plates coming out seemed sporadic and we had trouble getting more drinks. We had started with cocktails and were going to order a bottle of wine, but because they didn't get our order in for wine until we were 2/3 done with our meal, we just ordered a couple glasses. Then those glasses of wine didn't show up until we were done eating. Not good. The food was good to very good but I also expected it to be better. Everything was expertly cooked, but some of the dishes were just a bit too meh on the flavors:- The pork belly app was good but too much biscuit, or the flavors of the rest didn't stand out.- the cucumber salad was very good, fresh- the fried chicken with slaw was very tasty- the roast chicken was also very good - the skin was perfectly crispy. The veggies with it were okay- the bouillabaisse was decent, fresh, but not a lot of flavor- the porcini pasta was excellent- one of the best dishes - the side of roast carrots was my favorite with its pistachio and cheese topping- The green beans with mushrooms were okay - a little too watered down in flavor I probably won't be back given the plethora of other restaurants in Healdsburg. It's not a bad choice but I've also had a lot better just in terms of food. I tried not to knock them too much on the service because I know many restaurants are struggling in this regard right now, but I do hope they and others get better.

My sister, a true foodie, had researched Healdsburg for a great restaurant to enjoy. The restaurant, located in beautiful downtown Healdsburg is very nice. Our server was attentive and friendly, the patio filled with beautiful dinners enjoying their meals.The waiter explained that the dishes were small plates and so several dishes would be appropriate. The pork sliders were ho-hum my son and I are pork lovers but these were really ho-hum. Next course, fried chicken for my nine year old. He was happy. It was juicy, well cooked and tasty. My order was next, seafood risotto. I really really love risotto but I was really disappointed. I would call it insipid. Baffled as to how they could serve something as tasteless as this i thought, maybe I'm not sophisticated enough to appreciate how wonderful this dish is. Then sanity returned and my former opinion returned.On to the calamari tenders. The server highly recommend them but they were like chicken tenders from IHOP with squid instead of chicken. Chewy and unappetizing. I love fried calamari but these should have been named calamari steaks, a dish I dislike.Finally the server asked what I thought and I told her what I thought, just as I related to you. I didn't ask her to take the dishes off the bill but she did it anyway which I thought was nice. We had frozen cheesecake and lavender chamomile tea for dessert which were both great. Sorry, too many great restaurants here to return.

4.5. Food was great. Hostess was fast. Our server was busy and didn't get to us for awhile. The food from the kitchen got to us ASAP. We knew that because we were sat right in front of the kitchen. We had the pork belly biscuits, the chalk hill greens, porcini gigli, fried chicken, mashed potatoes, seafood risotto and each had a glass of wine or non-alcoholic drink. Total came to $194. Plenty of food. Very fulfilling.
Be the first to ReplyWe had mixed reviews about our food .
The fried chicken was terrible very vinegary. The shrimp and scallop risotto was delish. Loved the starters salmon and pork belly biscuits. I gotta say the service was not good. Overall meh!
Be the first to ReplyWorst UN happy half hours in years.
With two people at the bar you don't need to smash bottles with ear shattering force 4 times, once is enough. And that's if you're at John and Zekes. Not an aspiring Michelin restaurant inside a 4 star boutique hotel owned by a billionaire. If Foley was there, that bartender would be in the dumpster with the oyster shells. Just us though. Should've never left Lo and Behold. Never leave the boat and go into the jungle.
