Once upon a time there was a nice restaurant in Petaluma called Graziano's. The place had its peak 15 or so years ago. What used to be a killer meal with killer service has become tired and complacent -- much like McNear's down the street where the owners think they are owed a living.
Graziano's: Food is still pretty good, but service is tired. The meal is not worth the price. Watch out for wine rip-off. A bottle of Raffanelli zin that used to be about $45 a year ago jumped to $80. And..... just WTF is up with the stupid-ass vodka bar? I could go back to Minnesota and drink vodka out of the trunk of my car in -40* weather. Really. Vodka bar and Italian restaurant does not go together. Think of a better gimmick, QUICKLY.
McNear's: The food sucks. The owner is an asshole. I'm not sure if the public knows that the entire building is infested with rodents. Take a look, people..... that's NOT pepper on your food. I've known of a lot of people who barf after eating their chicken strips. For real. I'm surprised that the rodent police have not shut them down yet.
Bottom line: Petaluma has many, MANY eating establishments worthy of your business. The above mentioned do not. Better yet -- go to Cotati. Cotati has the best of the best in Sonoma County -- and I mean the best of everything.
Just so you know........ a lot of downtown Petaluma restaurants are on the Petaluma River. The river is infested with rats. McNear's and Graziano's are no exception. If you like rat shit in your food...... oh well..... bon apetit!
