Layla at MacArthur Place

I had a fantastic breakfast at Layla, located in the MacArthur Place Hotel. The atmosphere was cozy yet elevated, and the food was absolutely delicious— as someone who is gluten free there were so many options! Our server Mingma was amazing and informed me of all the great gluten free options! I will definitely be back soon.

Layla Restaurant is a hidden gem in Sonoma; we so appreciated the lovely ambience and delicious food, without having to leave town. We enjoyed leisurely cocktails, flavorful meals and great service on the peaceful, tree shaded patio as the sun was going down. My husband has celiac disease, and our server asked about food allergies as soon as we were seated. There are several GF options on the menu, which was a treat. We started with well-crafted cocktails, probably the best vodka gimlet I've had in years. (For those who don't do alcohol, there is an interesting selection of mock-tails.) The salads looked very generous, but we decided (with the help of our server) to have the roasted brussel sprouts along with our entrees, that also included some veggies. The salmon and the scallops entries were cooked perfectly. The GF birthday dessert was heavenly. The patio cooled down as the sun set, and I wished I had brought a light jacket. However, there were two types of patio heaters and the one on wheels worked perfectly to take off the chill. If you're a local or a visitor, you'll be sure to have a memorable experience at Layla's!
