John Ash & Co. and The Front Room Bar & Lounge
John Ash & Co. was the first Sonoma County restaurant to introduce the concept of cooking with seasonal, local foods and produce while pairing exceptional recipes with wines from the region. Today, John Ash & Co. remains an icon for gourmet, wine country dining with Executive Chef Thomas Schmidt continuing the standards of cooking excellence enjoyed by locals and guests alike. Chef Tom’s extensive wine knowledge provides the perfect foundation for creating innovative recipes that complement the restaurant’s extensive, award-winning wine list. And because Chef Tom and his staff believe in making exceptional food and wine fun and approachable, even those new to choosing wines will feel right at home.
