For Todd Lake, owner of Salt & Stone, there is something magical about restaurants and hospitality—though there’s nothing make-believe about the enchanting experience of a golden hour dinner at Salt & Stone. What began as a COVID-era precaution became an emblem of Sonoma County’s best views: intimate tables on a flagstone patio, surrounding a peaceful koi pond, nestled in the heart of the vineyards of Sonoma Valley. “The views are amazing and always changing with the season,” Lake says. “I believe that it literally elevates our ability to create incredible hospitality and guest experiences.”
