The Matheson Healdsburg Reviews
Hats off to The Matheson.
An understated building right off of the downtown Healdsburg square, this restaurant takes over a large portion of the block, but you would never know. We started off at their rooftop bar, Roof 106, for drinks before dinner. This is a happening place
Worth one visit and not again.
The ambience was loud, the service was slow and poorly informed (what percentage of fat in the Wagyu beef?); the cuisine was mediocre (Wagyu hamburger (cold poorly integrated ingredients and bun not toasted), tempura mushrooms (cold)). Poor dinning v

Came here to celebrate our anniversary and was genuinely blown away. Having spent years living in both San Francisco and Sonoma County, I consider myself a sincere foodie and came away feeling like this was one of the best restaurant experiences I ca
Ambiance is great until.
.. it takes you over two over to receive your entree and it comes out as a kids portion. Also the wine is just average.
Came here to celebrate a couple bdays.
We were glad to have found a reservation given we heard this place is v popular. When we got there, we even saw a few people get turned down due to no reservation sadly We were seated at the mezzanine overlooking the restaurant which was nice. The r
It was too warm inside, uncomfortable.
The pizzas are boring and the fries are too thick. Service is hit and miss. But it is a very pretty space.

It was my hubby's and my 17 year anniversary, we made reservations. Right off the bat we were greeted with a signed card from all the staff working that night. Super sweet and thoughtful. All were attentive, knowledgeable and very pleasant. Ambi

Love this rooftop bar! Perfect place to unwind at the end of the day. Nice food and friendly staff. Great location in downtown Healdsburg.
I can not imagine a better meal/experience than our first
I can not imagine a better meal/experience than our first visit to The Matheson. We actually ate upstairs at Rooftop 106, where the ambiance is amazing. The service was incredible, with our food allergies and every need attended to with detail, and
Good wine and food options.
Also right at the square which is terrific. So why the 2 stars? They auto charged our group of 4pp 20% tip without telling us. We didn't realize until we got home that we had inadvertently tipped them TWICE (40%) because they didn't le
Beautiful night.
The Matheson provided an exceptional dining experience, with a beautiful patio that feels both refined and inviting. We ordered the, Black Sea Bass, the Matheson Burger, Lettuces Kohlrabi, Lamb-Rack Braised leg, Cheese Curds, Frites and for desser
Very nice experience
The location on the town square is perfect. Lovely bar and dining room - tables are not too close together which is a refreshing change. Staff are great and knowledgeable - menu has all sorts of great things on it and the food is excellent. The iPad
Great Experience
Literally the best burger I have ever had (and I’ve had a few). My wife concurs. The service was also good and the ambiance was also fantastic.
Amazing happy hour in Healdsburg
This was our third visit to The Matheson and can't recommend it highly enough. All 3 times we went for their happy hour at the bar. The food is delicious (great burger and everything else we tried) and reasonably priced. But the star is the ~88
Horribly long waits for service, terrible prime rib.
This restaurant came highly recommended. Our server was very nice, did a good job and her staff were great also. The problem was time. Close to an hour went by between salad and dinner. Dessert was going the same way. I finally had to go find them an
Magic
Recently had my birthday dinner here (18 people). Dinner started with the lettuces, followed by the corn soup and then the NY strip or Halibut. Everything was magic. Had requests go back for the recipe for the dressing on the lettuces. People were s
Great bone marrow
Excellent food and cocktails, service was great and very friendly. The restaurant is located in the nice town of Healdsburg, small location for a nice walk. Highly recommend the bone marrow and the duck.
Absolutely Amazing!
Celebrated my husband’s birthday dinner here and their staff absolutely exceeded our expectations. Everything was wonderful from the moment we were greeted until we left the restaurant. The food was delicious with such a beautiful presentation. I h

Food was okay.
We celebrated at friends birthday and the server didn't offer desert just gave us the bill. After an evening of drinks and fun, it didn't register until after we already paid. Food was good. Nothing to write home about however.

I'm giving it 4 stars because out of the 3 plates we ordered one was not as good. The service was excellent, since the minute we showed up without a reservation they were able to accommodate us and the attention we received from Zaide, our waitress,
We went for happy hour at the bar downstairs.
The wine was (unfortunately) rather disappointing (may be just the happy hour selection)...but the pizza was another story and saved the day! On the happy hour menu only is an amazing cheese pizza (we don't eat meat), but the other vegetarian option

We arrived a couple of minutes before our reservation but we were seated immediately. Water was poured and we received menus and a tablet. The tablet had hundreds of bottles of wine, wine by the glass, an extensive spirits list and specialty cocktail
We absolutely love the Matheson.
our extended family of six went to their happy hour on both Friday and Saturday. they really do have an epic happy hour and it's got to be the best happy hour in Healdsuburb! McKenzie, who works as a hostess, is just phenomenal. She's smart she's

Such a fun place to go for drinks or to try their amazing wine tasting pavilion or dine upstairs and enjoy the views of Healdsburg
Excellent.
We went during restaurant week and had the $55 fixed menu. Great value. Started with a very tasty carbonara, followed by a wonderful pork chop and then desert. My wife had s'mores and I had a panecota - all very nice. The staff were great. John th
Amazing happy hour.
Really great food and strong drinks. We came in a Thursday and were so impressed with the beef tartar and the monster burger

This may have taken over as the best happy hour in Healdsburg. $8 insanely good cocktails including my favorites negroni, manhattan, and red wine. 30% off the wine wall gas juice. The Wagyu burger is omg. All the food is great really. If you work the

The Matheson is proof that I need to spend more time in Healdsburg. It's a fun spot for dinner and drinks. They offer an extensive wine list (on an iPad because there's so many choices), as well as some fun cocktails. I opted for the Foolish Behavior
Great experience for non - special occasions. Avoid special occasions such as prefix Valentines Day Meals...
The Matheson is typically a 5 star rating on normal dining times. I do not recommend them for special occasions such as Valentines Day... One out of the six small plate offerings were quite good. None of the other offerings met the requirements o
Great food and staff ruined by the loud music
This is the second time we have been to this restaurant. It is Michelin recommended. The food was excellent as was the staff. Obviously this is a fine dining restaurant and has a very interesting wine dispensing system. My complaint is that the musi
Eat before you go
Each of us ordered an appetizer and an entree; we shared an order of milk bread and root vegetables. Three of us ordered drinks as well. When all four of us were still hungry after we ate, that seems wrong. (BTW, we're all petite women who weigh u
Magnificent
I went Friday, about 5:30PM. No waiting with reservations. I had the Tomato Salad which came with some wonderful soft cheese. Then, I had the Halibut served on top of sauteed veggies. Delicious. I finished with a tasty Strawberry Rhubarb Cheese Cake.
Great drinks and vegetarian friendly bites
This is a great spot to have drinks and appetizers in the open area upstairs. I went with my girlfriends for a weekend getaway. We loved the drinks and vegetarian friendly food options. The spot was modern and chic.
Don’t miss!
Loved everything we ordered. Each dish was truly fresh and multifaceted. The components perfectly complemented the main item. We shared the beets, bread, halibut, mariscos, and chocolate dessert. I’d order each one again, except that I’d love to
Come here to see and be seen drinking wine but eat elsewhere.
We were excited to come for dinner after reading the reviews but were disappointed with so many things. First off, one of us is on a low to no sodium diet and we indicated this twice when making the reservation and again when they sent an email to co
Very disappointed
While the service and ambience is great the food is a major disappointment. First the menu a wierd assortment of things that don’t go together. We ordered the fish entree and were amassed to see a piece of fish the size of a silver dollar accompani
Unfortunately, not as good as we had hoped
We booked a reservation here for 8pm for four for my wife's birthday. Unfortunately, this restaurant experience was not what we had hoped. I'll try and summarize. The dinning room downstairs was beautiful, but was a bit loud. The food was very go
Innovative food
We ate at the bar and watched the very busy, diligent and dedicated staff prepare amazing food -- it was fun and fascinating, a new perspective on fine dining. My husband had "the best steak of his life," but as someone who prefers vegetar
This place was incredibly disappointing.
I came here for a bachelorette party and immediately we felt incredibly profiled. For reference, we are all in our 30s and we are all extremely mellow....not your typical "crazy" bachelorette party. We also have all worked a majority of our

The Mathewson has quickly become one of my top favorite dining experiences in Healdsburg. The ambience gives me the sense of fine, dining meats, laid-back wine country. It's the quintessential definition of Californian farm to table experience. The s
Great spot with a great vibe.
We were "wined" out so started off with some cocktails. They were done to perfection. Started off with some bread. What made this so great was the cold fresh butter with some salt. So good. We went right into the mains, and had the black co

Five. Stars for the ambience five stars for the service, and if I could give more than five stars for the food I absolutely would. I came here for my 50th birthday and I have to say this place ranks in the top three meals I've had in my entire life.T

This is really a review of the Roof 106 restaurant which is above The Matheson. Have to say this place is hard to figure out. Its big, its showy, and it comes off as a big time restaurant but the place lacks sincerity and heart, and comes off as a

AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with The Matheson Healdsburg. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to The Matheson Healdsburg at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the The Matheson Healdsburg page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* EternalAnt36, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* EternalAnt36 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to EternalAnt36 for any questions Peter may have as EternalAnt36 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* EternalAnt36 now uses their connections at The Matheson Healdsburg to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If EternalAnt36 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, EternalAnt36 receives the $200 reward which is credited to EternalAnt36's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at The Matheson Healdsburg!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
