The Top 12 Places to Eat and Drink in Petaluma
-
Rank 1. Table Culture Provisions
Fine dining
A tiny ten-table tasting menu spot in downtown Petaluma that punches way above its zip code. The cooking is California-seasonal with a real French backbone, and the team pulls it off without any of the stiffness that usually comes with that combination. Couples on big-deal dinners and locals who've quietly adopted it as their spot fill the room. Pick four courses or go the full seven if the night calls for it.

Rank 3. Stockhome
Scandinavian
Scandinavian food in Petaluma sounds like a fever dream, but Stockhome is a Bib Gourmand-winning restaurant that genuinely pulls it off. The room is bright and minimal, the crowd is curious and local, and the menu roams freely between Stockholm classics and California produce, with a few Middle Eastern detours that somehow make total sense. Grab Swedish candy on your way out, because apparently that's also a thing here.
