Rd, Healdsburg; 6-/11-course menu $106/$129; 6-9pm Wed-Sun)
You'd be hard-pressed to find a lovelier place to propose than this retro-formal Victorian
mansion's garden-view verandah - though there's nothing old-fashioned about the artful
haute cuisine: the kitchen churns its own butter, each course comes with a different variety
of just-baked bread, lamb and cheese originate down the road, and desserts include ice
cream flash-frozen tableside. Reserve a pre-sunset table on the verandah.
Mateo's Cucina Latina MEXICAN

burg; small plates $11-15, mains $21-25;
11:30am-9pm Thu-Tue, 4-9pm Wed, closed Tue Nov-Apr)
This is not Mexican food as you may know it. Here the upmarket Yucatan-inspired cook-
ing integrates fine technique and all-local ingredients for standout small plates, such as
wild-nettle empanadas and slow-roasted suckling pig, whose subtle flavors shine through
the spice. The full bar showcases rare tequilas and mescals. Make reservations; request a
garden table.
