Iron and Vine

Iron and Vine is the restaurant and event venue at Bennett Valley Golf Course in southeast Santa Rosa, a city-owned public course that first opened in 1969. The restaurant opened in March 2023 as part of a revitalization of the clubhouse, and in a few short years this unlikely setting has become one of the city's more interesting dining rooms. Executive chef Alec Graham came to Santa Rosa by way of Toronto's Harbord Room and Parts & Labour, a resort kitchen in Nicaragua and the culinary team at Foley Family Wines, and he cooks contemporary California food built around the seasons. The location is part of the appeal: a public course clubhouse turning out food that holds its own against downtown rooms.
