Acme Burger is a casual restaurant focusing on community togetherness and simple, local, and exceptionally good food and drink at an affordable price.

Acme Burger owner and creator, Todd Kniess: Todd‘s passion for food began when he assisted his father in the family catering business at 15 years old in Connecticut.  He pursued a culinary career at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York and completed his apprenticeship on Grand Cayman Island in the British West Indies.  After graduation at the C.I.A., Todd worked and learned from the best at the Four-Star Sazerac Restaurant in the Fairmont Hotel in New Orleans, the 5-Diamond Ritz Carlton Hotel in Naples, Florida, and the Left Bank in Larkspur.  Todd then owned and operated Bistro Liaison for 16 years in Berkeley.  When it was time for a change, Todd sold the Bistro and his Café, Le Petit Cochon, in May of 2017 and moved to Sonoma County.  After spending some time searching for his next adventure, he took a turn from French cuisine to perfect his next challenge, the iconic burger.

Opened in February 2019, Acme Burger is a true labor of love built to foster the same neighborhood favorite feel of Bistro Liaison.  We‘re a comfortably casual restaurant focusing on community togetherness, and simple, local, exceptionally good food at an affordable price.   We feature Sonoma Mountain Beef burgers (locally raised, hormone and antibiotic free, grass-fed and grain finished), Willie Bird turkey burger, the Beyond Burger (plant-based protein), Pacific Snapper, and a fantastically comprehensive menu of freshly prepared sides and salads. Served with a caramelized exterior and a touch of pink in the middle, the Acme Burger aims to please.   We also proudly pour beer and wine from local breweries and wineries.   We’re happy to offer you a menu that truly offers something for everyone.
