Osso Sonoma was a surprise to me. It was delicious and I enjoyed making the effort to get there for Happy Hour. On warm evenings, Osso is definitely the place. Service was excellent! And, the small plates for appetizers were yummy! The special on Thursday evening was pad Thai and it was something I would order as an entree, so gratifying as Thai food is wonderfully made.

The bread served was like pizza, yes it was that good! I wanted more. And, while I’m not a seafood or shellfish fan, the shrimp tacos were yummy.

All this food was paired well with my choice of sangria. Osso does a scrupulously refreshing recipe. Just the right amount of ingredients and flavors to mix with the wine.

For my next visit to Osso, I will try the blood orange margarita. Everyone at my table enjoyed their cocktails. This is definitely a place to go out with friends, especially when the warm weather beckons to enjoy the evening to twilight hours out on the town.

Great find with delicious, healthy food delivered hot. Staff is over the top friendly and attentive. Chef David uses only the freshest ingredients. I loved my salmon and dining on the back patio. I highly recommend and will return.

My first time in Sonoma and I was hungry. I popped in here for a bite after seeing pictures of their equisite deviled eggs. Huge drink selection, great food, wonderful service, and lovely ambience.

Sat at the bar here and had a great time watching the magic of food being made. Atmosphere and vibe is great. Service can be a little slow due to being so busy. Overall food was decent. Our appetizers were great - definitely recommend the burrata and baked oysters. The special of the day was a seafood stew, it was pretty delicious but just way salty. The shrimp tacos on the other hand were missing a hint of something that would complete the taste. My friend said the chicken sandwich was okay. Overall good experience.

Wowza. Tasty food. Friendly service on the Sonoma Plaza Square.

Came here after a day wine tasting.

So good.

We enjoyed the delicious braised short ribs, and the shrimp with grits. Perfect.

Cute bar and restaurant bwith rustic/modern decor. there weren't that many people here at 4:30. But. Not surprised. I'm sure it gets busy later.

We look forward to coming here again.

One of my top 10 restaurants. Absolutely delicious. Growing up in restaurants, working in food and wine can make a person critical and I have no negative points. Don’t miss them

Listen up, you Bay Area burger hounds. I've chased down dry, overpriced patties from Marin to Menlo Park, and let me tell you, disappointment is a well I know well. But then I stumbled onto Oso Sonoma in the heart of Sonoma Plaza. Now, this ain't some white tablecloth, pretentious gastropub. This is where the locals go, the kind of dive with chipped floorboards and a healthy skepticism towards kale.

And that's precisely where they get their damn burgers right. They keep it simple: locally-sourced beef, cooked to a juicy, just-pink perfection. No frills, just flavor. The cheese, you can pick your poison – cheddar, fontina, or this truffle jack that'll knock your socks off (assuming you haven't sweated them right off in the Sonoma heat). The bun? Toasted just enough to hold this meaty masterpiece without turning into a soggy mess.

But here's the kicker: the secret sauce. This ain't some mass-produced mystery goo. This is a flavor bomb that whispers of tangy pickles, smoky paprika, and something herbal I couldn't quite place. It elevates the whole damn burger to a symphony of savory goodness.

Now, service ain't usually what gets me waxing poetic, but the crew at Oso Sonoma deserves a shoutout. They're friendly, efficient, and know exactly when to refill your beer without hovering like a tourist lost in Napa Valley.

So, the next time you're craving a burger that's more than just a glorified Happy Meal, head to Oso Sonoma. It's a testament to the fact that sometimes, the best things come in the most unassuming packages. Just don't expect a fancy Instagram backdrop – this is a burger joint for people who appreciate good food, not good filters.

Great food and atmosphere, patatas bravas are a must!
