If you can't afford the girl and the fig, try this slightly lower-end trattoria-style venue in Glen Ellen. No corkage fee, which is a plus. Great flatbread pizzas.

Less than a mile from my house. Lovely walking trails through the woods, plus a big field surrounded by a walking path. Good place to go "earthing," or walking barefoot.
