Ayawaska Brunch for the Win!
Today we had a fantastic brunch! Music, sunshine, a nice breeze as we watched people kayaking the petaluma river.
I started with a drink choice (this is one of the restaurants that makes drinks for people like me that love juices with awesome flavors but I don't drink alcohol). The Red detox Berry blend was sweet and tart and pulled together with yummy, and was perfect with the Poke bowl. I usually go for the salmon dish during normal hours and it is always out of this world so I tried the Salmon Poke and holy moly I will be back during brunch for this amazing dish.
My husband loves the spicy chicken sandwich we are always looking for a good spicy chicken sandwich without fried chicken and this was perfect! not much to talk about there one minute it's on the table and the next it has disappeared. Yum yum yum!
Great brunch vibes.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Dec 9, 2021Previous reviewYesterday we had a fantastic lunch overlooking the Petaluma river. Civache and plantain chips followed up with the Pesto and steak pasta.. perfection!! I was looking to get out of the house since finals week is upon me and it's to easy to stay at my desk inside. Ayawaska was a breath of fresh air, we sat inside and just had the best server, and service you could ask for. We will be back for sure. This is one of my favorite dining experiences in Petaluma.
Inside or outsideJul 6, 2021Previous reviewThis is one of my absolute favorite places to dine in Petaluma. I love to sit outside on the fabulous patio and watch the activities on the river, or on the street side :)
The food is always delicious!
And the service is fantastic :) - Jessica A.Southwest Santa Rosa, Santa Rosa, CA33558Aug 3, 2024Seated via Yelp Reservations

This was our third visit, and again it was excellent in every way.
I had the Cau Cau, a seafood stew. The flavor was so good!
We also had filet mignon salad, and a chicken salad. You can see the beautiful colors and large portions. Delicious!
It's a lovely restaurant and great ambiance. Highly recommended!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0May 12, 2024Previous reviewWe had a wonderful meal! We started with Charred Octopus shared, as an appetizer for 3. We agreed it was superb. Then three mains were Mixte steak with rice and fries (Lomo Salgado Mixte), Salmon with veggies and scalloped potatoes , and the Seafood Paella (Arroz con Mariscos).
All three dishes were so good! Great flavors and very large portions.
The service was excellent, and the ambiance is pleasant and trendy and cool. In summary, a great restaurant and highly recommended! - Aug 22, 2024

Reserved a table for a party of 9 and they confirmed my reservation and when we got there they had everything ready! They accommodated us very well and we're on top of everything despite us being a large party. The drinks and food were really good! The empanadas were delicious!! I definitely reccomend you check this place out

Came here to have dinner with my coworkers. The place was nice and they had good music selection.
As a Bolivian, I was very happy to have this option that is somewhat close to our cuisine - So I had to order a chicha morada as my beverage of choice, so refreshing!
I ordered the caus caus mariscos. The presentation was lovely, seafood was fresh, rice was nice and warm. But the flavor lacked slightly to be honest. It was a bit underwhelming.
Since I'm GF, there wasn't much I could try from their menu. But from what my coworkers expressed, the empanadas were delicious, so if you want something safe, try an empanada!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Aug 2, 2024Seated via Yelp Reservations
Ayawaska has a new brunch menu! It is delicious I only took a picture of my juice. It was more like a smoothie. All seasonal fruits and some coconut water it was so refreshing.
I love it here lunch and dinner are the best and now we can add brunch too to that list.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Sylvia A.Petaluma, CA11152Aug 17, 2024Updated review
So....this was a rough one. I didn't write a review when I last went about 4 months ago but that experience was bad but I considered it a one off.
The good remains the same - Food and outdoor patio are really great.
The bad - the past two experiences are related to the staff. Yesterday - it started off great with the hostess - very nice, funny, engaging. Then - the servers turned the tide and experience of the evening. I have no problem with wait staff that are professional, courteous and not overly engaging but what we experienced was curtness, minimal dialogue, and rudeness. It actually became comical at one point . Our young adult daughter who is normally much more forgiving said several times afterwards that the behavior of the waiter and his assistants was just not right.
This is a place that we used to always recommend to our City friends coming up this way but sadly - we won't be recommending this restaurant again as it was that off putting to all of us.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Hi Sylvia, please we need more info about your experience. I will text a DM because its so important for us to understand what happened in your last Ayawaska experiences. Thank you so much for your review and we really appreciate your support.
Jun 29, 2019Previous reviewWow! Everything here was perfect, from the greeting when entering, the great wait staff, great food and awesome cocktails!!! I cant wait to go back! The outdoor patio on the river along with the live band, we felt like we were on vacation. I had the risotto with beef medallions which was soooooo good. My husband had the arroz con mariscos and was so happy with his choice. This is a great addition to Petaluma! We highly recommend it@

I made reservations but it was raining and they weren't busy so they took us early. It was pretty dead inside but as it got later, it definitely got busier. From the maitre'd to the floor, the staff were great. Our server was attentive but not over bearing and answered all of our questions. We ordered the empanadas to start and they were light and delicious. We had the traditional Chica morada which was refreshing and not too sweet. I had the pisco sour and it was OK but I opted for a different spirit for my second drink.
For mains we had the lomo saltado and the grilled octopus. The beef in the lomo saltado was so tender, I could cut it with a fork. It was seasoned just right and the accompanying vegetables were cooked perfectly also. The grilled octopus was also on point.
I would definitely come back. Glad to know that they have another location so there are some options!Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1
