“I loved the live music. Saw Space Suit preform. Loved the feel of the atmosphere, like you can feel the history of the place. Service was great. Well priced. Feels like in the middle of nowhere, but the drive is nice through the trees. Well worth it.”

“The food, the presentation, the service.”

“Highly recommend this hidden gem!
We had a wonderful Father’s Day dinner here, and everything exceeded our expectations. The waitstaff and the friendly girls at the door who seated us were all fantastic—warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Everyone took the time to explain the specials and answer questions, which made the experience feel personal and special. 
The portions were generous and the food was incredibly fresh and flavorful. As a nice touch, they even took a Polaroid picture of us with their own camera to commemorate the occasion—what a thoughtful gesture!
This was a great dinner overall, and we’ll definitely be back. Perfect spot for a memorable meal with family. Thank you to the whole team!”

“This place is by mill valley in, it is really authentic Chiense food ! (I’m Chiense and I know this is a very authentic north Chiense food). Very clean and fast services. Order from Kiosk make it easy. In the few days we here we had mapo toufu, Mongolian beef, eggplant and toufu, fry noodles, and the sweet sour soup is amazing!!! We pretty much here everyday other than July 4 it closed for American 250. Very friendly services. I highly recommend mapo toufu so yummy! Price fair all dishes under 20$. Will visit again! I also got Their source. Check out the cute Google review. I heard one the owners is Chiense 🤩”

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.”

“Located in a parking lot behind Safeway, tphis place is a gem! They are so nice and the food is excellent! My favorite is the pupusas. The breakfast burrito is also one of the best I've had. They cook everything to order so it's super fresh. There is a place to sit and eat under a canopy.”

“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.”

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

“I’ve been to a lot of ice cream places around the world and this is my favorite one (get the vanilla honey lavender flavor). Not only is the ice cream delicious and waffle cone crunchy, but it is very cheap (I swear ice cream has gotten so expensive - like why are some places charging $10). The only downside would probably be that they only take cash.”

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

“We hadn’t been here since they first opened and were still finding their footing. Finally made it back for dinner and WOW do I regret waiting so long. The menu is fabulous. The dishes were seasonal, generous and outstanding. This place is a gem and true Italian. Lucky Fairfax. We’ll be back more often!”

“The pizza was absolutely delicious—I can’t wait to come back and try every variety on the menu. I also absolutely loved the oysters. The atmosphere was wonderful, and the staff was warm, friendly, and always smiling!”
