Fodor's Expert Review Petra's Bistro & Wine Bar

The ambience at Petra's—quiet, dark, and warm (there's a great fireplace)—complements its seductive meat and seafood entrées and smart selection of more than 250 wines from California and around the world. The menu impresses with duck confit, butternut squash gnocchi, and coq au vin. The downstairs Clocktower Cellar bar provides a lively, if sometimes rowdy, alternative with its pub grub, whiskies, and craft beers and ales.
