Wine Focus
Northern California wine list and full bar; sommelier Tess Housholder pairs wines with the six-course Folia Tasting.

Folia Bar & Kitchen is the main dining room of Appellation Healdsburg, the culinary-focused hotel co-owned by chef Charlie Palmer on eight and a half acres in Healdsburg. It is Palmer's second hospitality venture in town, after Hotel Healdsburg, and the kitchen is led by his son, Reed Palmer. The room opens off the hotel's light-filled lobby and centers on a sweeping open kitchen, where a live-fire grill and wood-fired hearth drive an ember-cooking style built on Sonoma County produce. The name nods to foliage, to the Palmer culinary portfolio and to the Latin root for a single sheet of paper, a quiet metaphor for a menu that is rewritten as the seasons turn. It is a young kitchen, open only since the fall of 2025, and already cooking with a voice of its own.

Menu Highlights
Grilled Hog Island Oysters
off the hearth, smoked choron sauce
Black Cod Cioppino
Manila clams, Bay squid, fennel, cranberry beans
Olive Oil-Poached Halibut
Japanese turnips, garlic, olives
Creste di Gallo Pomodoro

'Nduja Croquettes

Lemon Tart

Dinner in the dining room is a three-course prix fixe at $85, served Wednesday through Sunday, with nearly every dish touched by the open fire. For a longer evening, the Folia Tasting is a six-course menu written fresh each night, with surprise bites and wines chosen course by course by sommelier Tess Housholder. A Northern California wine list and a full bar back both. Outside, the patio sits among olive trees with a fire pit for cooler nights. Upstairs, Andy's Beeline Rooftop pours cocktails and garden-driven nonalcoholic drinks alongside caviar and ceviche. Book dinner ahead on weekends, and ask for the patio in fair weather.
