Since tapas involves sharing small plates among everyone at the table, you might decide to invite a whole group of friends to join you at Perch + Plow. More friends means that you can sample a greater variety of dishes at this popular Santa Rosa restaurant!

The kitchen combines international flavors with local sourcing and a farm-to-table approach, which means that you'll find everything on the menu to be fresh and vibrant. Regulars recommend that you try at least one place from the raw menu, and particularly suggest the beef carpaccio with aged balsamic and crispy shallots. Be sure to get your veggies with dishes like the beet and ricotta salad, or the roasted brussels sprouts with hazelnuts and orange blossom honey. Popular meat-focused dishes include grilled octopus with salsa verde and charbroiled hanger steak topped with king trumpet mushrooms and chimichurri sauce.
