We were in Sonoma and found Emmy's spaghetti Shack had just opened there about 3 weeks prior. Although they were still working our some "service" kinks, the staff was very friendly. The food was very fresh and tasted great! Protions are large so definitly share, which makes it a great value too. more

This place has the best food in the city. i go out to dinner constantly and always regret not going to the shack. the waitresses are great and always good music. I guess you just have to be easy going to love this mplace. over crowded on the weekends though. more
