El Molino Central
Mexican
You order at the counter, then walk through the kitchen to reach the patio, which tells you most of what you need to know about this colorful little regional Mexican spot in Sonoma. The menu shifts with the seasons, and fellow diners will cheerfully brief you on the day's highlights before you've found a seat. A Michelin Bib Gourmand, and the kind of place that rewards coming with enough people to order half the menu.
