“The Corner Bar is an amazing addition to Mill Valley. Their food is outstanding and so is their service. I love how they constantly add new and innovative items to their menu. Jason and his entire staff know how to take care of their guests and make everyone feel welcome. Weekends after dinner are a happening scene. Definitely worth checking out if you haven't already.”

The ice cream was some of the best I’ve had, and our server was especially friendly and welcoming. Her warm attitude made the whole experience feel personal and memorable. I’ll definitely be back!”

It is also a perfect place for intimate get together with friends or family alike to unwind or just relax. It goes without saying , I love their menu offerings.Muy delicioso!!!”

“Great food…..great service….over the top….”

“his is hands-down the best ice cream spot in the area. It’s a quintessential local gem—tiny, charming, and always worth the wait in line.

What sets them apart is the quality of their organic, small-batch flavors. The Vanilla Honey Lavender is an absolute must-try; you can tell they use real, high-quality lavender. Their housemade waffle cones are the best I’ve ever had—crispy, fresh, and they smell amazing from a block away.

I also love their commitment to being waste-free by using stainless bowls for those eating there. Just a heads-up for newcomers: it is cash or local check only, so come prepared! It’s the perfect place to grab a scoop and walk around town. Truly a Fairfax staple that never misses.”

“Finnegan's Marin Thank you for supporting the Lucky Run to benefit Novato High School's Safe & Sober Grad Night. We appreciate you! Safe and Sober Grad of Novato”

“The steamed clams and mussels were the best I've had in years. Perfectly cooked, not overdone and small like so many places. The ribeye was delicious and the mashed potatoes that came with it were perfect 👌. Fish tacos were complex and delicious. You can tell they have an artist back there. Service was great and added to the experience ❤️. We went with a toddler and sat outside, luckily most people were inside, but they were very kind and seemed to enjoy her antics which always makes it more enjoyable for the adults.”

“I always have pupusas everywhere I go, I’m always disappointed from every place I visit… except this one, this food truck has the best tasting pupusas I’ve had other than my tias and another place around 4th street. I highly recommend this place!!!
Also the decoration is beautiful!!!”

“Awesome Food and kind staff!”

“Great place to have a delicious dinner, friendly staff and amazing food.”

“My wife and I were looking for a place to eat authentic pizza. We were referred here by one of my wife's clients. To our surprise, we have been looking for a gem like this for years. Everything about this restaurant is perfect. I highly recommend this to all. I cant wait to be back to try other items on the menu. Aside from quality pizza the salads look amazing and large in size.”

“Absolutely incredible food and service. This is true Italian cuisine of the highest order- it’s hard to find this level of authenticity outside of Italy. The porchetta and faro were perfectly cooked, as was the spaghetti and gnocchi.

I am sure this place is going to have a Michelin star someday - we feel so lucky to have discovered it serendipitously while trying to grab a quick and affordable bite around Fairfax.

Also, the owner and servers were such wonderful hosts. Fairfax is lucky to have a gem like this. We can’t wait to come back soon!!”

“Thank you to Tien and team for a wonderful breakfast and even better service! You were so accommodating to our daughter’s allergy and we felt so well taken care of. Even our dog had her own water dish. We’re so glad you’re part of the Novato community!”

“The food was super yummy and came out quite quickly! I got the spicy chicken ramen and the chicken was super tender and the broth was delicious and spicy!!! We also got the dragon roll which was yummy and filling. Highly recommend!”
