Description: Fresh, Inventive Mediterranean and Iberian Cuisine in the heart of the Sonoma Valley Wine Country. Seafood and Portuguese Cuisine are our specialties. We offer a unique variety of fresh local and imported seafood specials daily including whole fish. The seafood selections on our menu are complimented by a variety of meat dishes ranging from the popular Pork Tenderloin stuffed with almonds, olives and figs to the, hard to find, Tripe Porto Style. Many of these dishes come steaming hot out of the wood-burning oven and fill the dining room with the exotic aromas of true Mediterranean cuisine. The menu reflects the commitment of Chef and Owner Manuel Azevedo to creating the unique culinary delights of his native Portugal and its neighbors. LaSalette Restaurant is proudly one of Zagat Surveys top rated restaurants in Sonoma. See our web site for the complete menu and a look inside our dining room, which features an open kitchen and decor that sends you back in time to old Lisbon.

We were looking forward to a great meal based upon prior reviews and were somewhat let down. The overall experience is difficult to describe - every dish was oaky, and some fairly good, but none had that "wow" factor that made you want to return. We enjoyed the first starter group of dishes, and perhaps we should have only tried... More

Nestled in a courtyard with a flowing fountain is LaSallette. It was a warm night we sat outside. The ambience inside was romantic and enticing. We ordered the red flights and tasting plates. Enough food to nibble during a great conversation and lots of laughter. The nights special Tuna Tartar was cut too thick and fell apart on the plate... More

We tried LaSalette on the recommendation of a local merchant (who we now suspect was paid to recommend it), and were excited by the good reviews and charming ambience. Unfortunately, the food was a total let down. My husband ordered sardines which turned out not to be fresh, and fish stew that tasted like warm salsa with liquid smoke and... More

We tried LaSalette for dinner recently based on the glowing reviews and were hoping to find some great chef-quality food. We were unfortunately disappointed. The restaurant is intimate, with a warm cozy feel, especially if you're seated close to the brick oven! Our server was fairly efficient, but distracted and a bit strange. During her entire "specials" speech, she was... More

The desserts were trios ,each better than the... More

This place came highly recommended, and for good reason. Everything was excellent - the wine was excellent, we had a sampler platter and the sausage was the standout. We had a diverse selection of food (I had the pork tenderloin) and I would saw we were all satisfied with the meal. The service was great, the waitress (who might have... More

Visiting Sonoma, tasting wine. Got into town and started with the food here. I had the sardine appetizer. Fish were bigger than I expected, and clearly an appetizer that I wish I had shared. Very tasty with the onions/olive along. Had the "Brazilian national dish" which I cannot remember name of, but wonderful smoky pork (probably the linguaca-? sp)with beans,... More

We had a wonderful dinner at La Salette. It has a unique menu inspired by Portuguese cuisine. I had a scallop pasta dish that was incredible. The chorizo is delicious so make sure something you order has chorizo in it! The atmosphere of the restaurant is romantic and lovely but it is a VERY small restaurant and reservations are highly...
