About the Restaurant

Valette was opened in 2015 by brothers Dustin Valette, the chef, and Aaron Garzini, who planned it on their father's porch overlooking the Alexander Valley. Their great-grandfather ran bakeries in Healdsburg, and the restaurant was built to showcase Sonoma County farmers, winemakers and artisans.

Produce comes partly from an estate farm about 100 yards from the restaurant. The menu runs from shared plates to entrees, and the chef offers a 'Trust Me' tasting menu of at least five courses. The Michelin Guide lists Valette.

Getting There With a Chauffeur

Valette is a good choice for a group celebrating at the end of a Healdsburg-area tasting day; the set five-course group menu with pairings keeps the evening simple. It is a block from the Plaza, so drop-off and pickup are easy.
