As the Guide notes, “SingleThread has risen to the top of Sonoma County’s dining scene since its opening in 2016. The talented couple behind this powerhouse project has shown consistent commitment to the highest standards of ingredient quality and exceptionally refined cuisine.”
Eating options at Sonoma County’s 500-plus restaurants range from casual wine country cuisine to top gourmet fare, ethnic favorites to diner grub — all with an eat-fresh philosophy that offers visitors a true taste of Wine Country. Sonoma County, California is a food-lover’s paradise.
