“A great burger. From my first year in the bay area there was something special about Nation's Giant Burgers, scattered around the East Bay. A juicy patty, cheese, with the fixings a nice clump of lettuce, onions and tomato, thick slab of cheese and pickles. Great thick fries, and pies.. seriously the best pie I ever had was at a Nation's. Their Strawberry Tart only offered when in season, is just large strawberries, a tasty almost shortbread crust and whipped cream. The one I had in 2001, days after 9/11, the strawberries were bursting with juice, almost like a jam, the skin barely holding, and. not too sweet, not too tart... In Plant City, Florida they have amazing strawberries.. previously the best I had ever tasted, but these, from a California Farm is what they said, are always going to be the best. �Other than their Strawberry Tart, I like their Banana Split, Banana Cream, Chocolate Cream, Pecan, Blueberry... well.. all of them. Never a bad choice. How I like my burger. Cheese, no dressing, grilled onions, light lettuce. Then I get hash browns and ham on the side (sometimes one egg also) and add them to the burger. Anyway. yes. 👍 more, again.“

“The food, the presentation, the service.“

“The food was great, the service was amazing and staff very kind! Clean restrooms are a plus too! Thank you for the great food and great service!“

“An amazing restaurant with an interesting history and spectacular view of the Bay. Great service and food. And the Caprice is fully wheelchair accessible. Thanks for a great dining experience!“

“The atmosphere is lovely and service is great but food quality is sub par. Our group ordered different meat plates and none of our orders were cooked correctly; some were undercooked and some were overcooked. The taste of the food reflected the lack of consistency as well; seasoning and meat quality didn’t impress us and we are not picky eaters. Overall I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant if food quality is your main priority but if you want to enjoy your dinner in a place with good service and atmosphere, it’s a great choice.“

“Excellent place to try! Great staff and great food“

“My husband and I came here for breakfast before our hike in Muir Woods. Husband got the huevos rancheros with house potatoes which was really good! I got the Mexican scramble with hash browns and I think this was literally the best omelette I’ve ever had. I was so full for hours afterwards (and yes, even after the hike I barely had any room for anything else). Would highly recommend!

Also, the man and lady behind the counter were also very nice!“

“love love love it here! my mom and I stayed in fairfax for a whole week and we ate here several times. food is amazing, atmosphere is amazing, staff is amazing. special shout out to our main man Ty who remembered us by name and was always super fun and friendly every time we came in. he may even play you a few songs on his guitar if you’re lucky. this place was definitely a highlight of our trip and i’ll miss going there when we leave. we could also tell that this place is a huge hit with the locals which is always nice to see. thanks for all of the great food, drinks, conversations, and songs Barefoot Cafe! until next time! -Ebony“

“We returned to this restaurant twice during our visit to SF, it was that good. Very much enjoyed the garlic soy chicken wings, salmon eggs benedict, kimchi, bulgogi, pimped up ramyun, and of course the bacon.“

“Our service was amazing. The food was very good and the atmosphere was really nice. We will definitely be back.“

“Really awesome brunch place in the heart of Mill Valley. This restaurant is a must visit if you’re around in the north bay and hungry.
I got some loco moco and their strawberry sauce french toast special- both were really flavorful and tasty!“

“I highly recommend Salt and Pepper restaurant in Tiburon. The food is absolutely amazing and the service is nice and friendly. 🥂 I give it five stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The food and service is always impeccable!“

“Stillwater is one of those places that really captures the laid-back Fairfax vibe. It has a great mix of good food, drinks, and live music, which makes it more than just a typical bar or restaurant.
The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, with a nice indoor/outdoor feel. It’s a great spot to hang out with friends or enjoy a casual date night. When there’s live music, the energy is fun but not overwhelming, and you can tell it’s a local favorite.
Food and drinks have been consistently good on my visits. The menu has solid comfort-style options, and the bar makes quality cocktails. Service has also been friendly and attentive, even when it’s busy.
If you’re in Fairfax and want a place with character, music, and a good community feel, Stillwater is definitely worth a stop.“

“A fortunate discovery situated directly adjacent to the AC San Rafael Downtown hotel — an excellent option for breakfast before a full day of activities.
| Visited with colleagues, with each person ordering independently — a useful indicator of overall kitchen consistency
| The chef's special omelette with corned beef hash was the standout dish — exceptionally well-executed, rich in flavour and generously portioned
| The traditional Irish-style breakfast was prepared to a high standard — precisely the kind of substantial, satisfying meal one would want before a productive day
| Service was attentive and genuinely welcoming throughout
| The location is particularly convenient for guests staying in the immediate area
For those seeking a quality breakfast in San Rafael, Lundy's Home Cooking comes highly recommended. A establishment that delivers on both food and hospitality.“

“Watershed Chef Kyle Swain is the best in Mill Valley!“

“Good beer, tasty food and live music...what's not to love? Can't wait to get back in!“

“Food was great, local and fresh, and it was served faster than I expected, because it was pretty busy and during Brunch. Great atmosphere, nice and warm in the summer mid morning sun, not too disturbed from the traffic and noise, and the service was good! Definitely coming back again!“

“delicious food and drink at the happy hour. perfect service and nice atmosphere.“

“Had a fabulous solo dining experience at Buckeye. Black cod on English pea risotto. 😋“

“Best food and drinks all weekend long. Marco was just an amazing individual. He made our anniversary even more special. My husband is a huge mezcal fan and asked if there was a drink the bartender could make and sure enough they made the most spectacular drink! We loved the food and drinks so much we stopped in after our long hike from Angel Island. I ordered the same mezcal drink as my husband did the night before. G was just an amazing bartender and helped us out with all the different types of mezcal and what characteristics they bring to the table. Marco even recognized us and said you guys are back. I have been telling everyone about your amazing restaurant and not just the quality of food but just the atmosphere and experience we had with the staff. They are all welcoming and make you feel like family.“

“Be careful what you order, the croissants are immense. We ordered breakfast including one signature croissant and couldn't eat half of what we got. Everything was delicious, the coffee was hot and strong, the staff were attentive and courteous. We were on vacation, however, rather than try someplace new we came back here a second time - we don't often do that!“

“Elizabeth is a wonderful waitress who catered to our every need and gave us a taste of every sauce on the menu that went with our delicious burgers, fries & onion rings! We stopped in on 11/2 during a cruise stop.“

“The pizza, the calamari, the mozzarella sticks, the margaritas, what an exceptional find. The service was top notch and the pizza so good i ate the crusts, it’s that type, i never eat the crusts. We left feeling well taken care of. Sean, the manager, was making us feel welcome in every possible way. I’ve heard the clam chowder and salads are amazing as well, we will be back!! Prime rib?! French dip!?! Yes please!!!!“

“Contrary to what people say about the food, it’s good and fresh. From my experience, people just don’t know how to look and read the menu. Glad this is a smaller shop so they have more autonomy to deal with people’s lack of reading skills. Some people are just never please. Perfect place to get food with a group of 4 too.“

“Excellent food in cozy atmosphere.“

“great pizza and great customer service will be coming back“

“Jose Luis took care of us! I don't know why this place doesn't have better reviews, we came into town on a motorcycle trip and didn't want to ride to dinner. He was prompt with our drinks and dinner and the food was great for a hotel restaurant. Definitely would do it again!“

“"5/5 stars! Picco is hands down the best Italian spot in town! The pasta dishes are cooked to perfection, and the pizzas are crispy and flavorful. The service is top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff. Cozy atmosphere and great prices. Highly recommend the Devinci pizza and Brownie for dessert. We'll be back!"“

“Great old school place. The French toast, the scramble, the hash browns, the Benedict, and the coffee were all great. Excellent place to stop on the way back from Muir Woods or Mt Tam, or really just a good place to go for a good breakfast. Service was fast and attentive but never felt rushed. Highly recommend.“
