Fun vibe but overpriced for what it is - mezcal Negroni isn’t good, pork chop was dry/overdone, crudo was average, $4 bread is a third of what you get for free at the left bank. Burger is good and desserts are excellent. But then you get the 5% “living wage tax” on top of the $50 entrees…insult on injury

I recently dined at the Guesthouse Restaurant in Kenfield, and I cannot recommend it highly enough! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, with friendly staff who made us feel right at home.
Now, let's talk about the food. I ordered the steak filet mignon grilled to perfection, and it was nothing short of incredible! The steak was tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor. Each bite melted in my mouth, and the seasoning was spot-on. It truly was the highlight of the meal!
The overall dining experience was exceptional, with a great selection of dishes and a cozy ambiance that makes it perfect for any occasion. If you're in the area, be sure to stop by the Guesthouse Restaurant—it's a gem that you don't want to miss!

An issue I have with many Marin experiences, it feels like people don't always have great taste around here, they just pay a lot and think it's fancy. But this place actually has the atmosphere, creativity and menu that I felt was worth every cent. It's got the price but none of the regrets. Birthday worthy for sure

After a recent (our 5th?) dinner here, I had to come drop a review to give the team kudos. Eating out is expensive these days, but I always feel like our meals at Guesthouse are worth it. The food and cocktails are consistently great, and the staff is truly stellar. They operate this restaurant like a top notch city destination.

Food excellent as always. Service was a bit off in regards to timing - 35 minutes to get drinks ordered and not due to perseveration or delays on our part. Server was very friendly though and everything else came relatively directly. Place can get quite noisy in the main dining room when busy.

The ambiance was nice, and the food was really good. The ahi tuna tartare was especially delicious, our favorite appetizer. The steak was perfectly cooked, and the service was excellent and friendly. They change their menu occasionally, which is nice because you can try different dishes. I prefer seating outside when available because there's more space and it's not as loud. Seating inside is also nice, but when it's crowded, you get too close to the person sitting next to you, if seating at the two-person tables.

Food was DELICIOUS!
Service was SUPERB!!
But mind the EXTRA FEES OF “Living Wage”
STARTING JULY 1ST IT IS ILLEGAL TO PUT ANY HIDDEN FEE’S ON THE BILL!!
The manager ADMITTED that they just don’t want to pay their employees a living wage.
THE PRIME RIB 3 COURSE WAS DIVINE!!
WILL COME BACK!
Just hope to not see that stupid charge!

Food is good, service was very good. Appetizers much better than mains. Seems always like they’re rushing us along.

Nice and varied menu. Efficient and friendly service. Kampachi was tasty, but given the price, the price to value relationship was out of kilter. GREAT strawberry shortcake. One last thing...I think they deserve credit for artful presentation. Cheers.
