Wine Country is one of my favorite places, but between Napa Valley and Sonoma Valley there are so many places to go and fun towns to check out. I have my favorites, but I am always interested in finding new places all over. So when I found out we were going to be driving through Sonoma, I started hunting for a great place to grab lunch before heading further north, and I came across Spread Kitchen.
Spread Kitchen is a fast casual Lebanese restaurant specializing in wraps, salads and dips. I love a good dip from that part of the world (or any part of the world really), so when we arrived, we knew a dip combo (with hummus, baba ganoush and muhammara) was a must, and we decided to split the fried cauliflower wrap. It didn’t take long to arrive, and we were absolutely blown away by the levels of flavor in everything. The homemade pickles were fantastic (and come with the dip combo), and we really just gobbled down everything.
We found the flavors so enticing that we ended up here again when we decided to stay in Sonoma and go to a winery event. We doubled down on the the dip combo, but this time we added on their felafel to see if how it was, as I’m Doubting Thomas as to whether good felafel even exists. It turns out that it does as the felafel was crisp, yet moist, and was served with a fantastic sauce. This time we went for a chicken wrap, and while it was still tasty, it was no where near the flavor levels of the cauliflower wrap.
I even grabbed some baklava and pita chips to take with us for later, and the baklava was one of the best I’ve ever had. Everything I’ve eaten at Spread Kitchen has been top notch, and it is definitely going to stay on the list for a place to grab some quick and tasty food while exploring in the area. If you’re looking for something fast and casual in Sonoma, it’s definitely a winner, or you can order it for takeaway if you prefer and have it someplace later. Or they even have pre-made containers of dips if that’s easier for you.
Score: 5/5
Recommendation: Their spreads really are wonderful, and their veggie wraps are heavenly. And Baklava!
