New American Restaurants near Larkspur, CA

“"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!"“

“It was an amazingly flavourful brunch that my husband I shared for his birthday. We have both visited places in Los Angeles as well as Vancouver, Canada and this place is 2nd to none! A must check out! We will be back David and the crew! Cheers Aaryan and Nadya“

“I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. I am a business owner a few doors down and I wandered in with a friend after work one night about a month ago. We were met with such incredible warmth from the staff and the environment itself, even without a reservation. We sat at the bar and were greeted by Josh, only to find out later that he is the owner. He made excellent recommendations on everything from our drinks to dessert. The bar didn’t feel isolated from the rest of the restaurant and guests, but rather was lively hub frequented by kitchen and serving staff and warmed by a smoldering wood fire. The coziest. We swooned for the poke appetizer, complete with house-made toasted, but not crisp, blue corn tortillas. The pork shoulder tacos—also to die for. I have to say though, that the star on the sidelines was the beans. I honestly didn’t know I could feel this way about beans…but I digress. Josh bounced around from table to table all night, never letting a single ball drop, making every guest feel like *his* guest. A pot de crème sealed the evening in perfect bliss. I’m back a month later with the same friend, eating different and somehow even more incredible entrees: ribeye, halibut and a rhubarb crisp for dessert. I scarcely ever take the time to write a review as I prefer to vote with my $ and my feet, but I simply couldn’t eat here again without taking the time to sing it’s praises. Eat here.“

“Great addition to our neighborhood. A step above most restaurants here in atmosphere, vibe, food, and service. Duzgun the manager provides attention to detail, and Berry provides excellent service with a genuine smile every time we visit. Recommended!“

“It was our first time and the service was amazing. Our dinner was more than excellent, the grilled pork chops with sweet potato puree best ever tasted. Great selection in red wine and great atmosphere! Owners were there and were very welcoming and down to earth! 100% recommended“

“Personable and professional service. Promptly served“

“Tasting menu was tailored for the 4 vegetarians/pescatarians out of 5 in our group. Each item was very tasty and we enjoyed to the last bite. Servers were very professional and knew their stuff. Since we were there for our anniversary, we received a card from them which basically thanked us for making them part of our celebration. Classy touch!“

“Lovely little gem of a place , fabulous food & service, highly recommend.“

“Well worth the reputation. One of the best eggs Bennie's I've ever had, with amazing caramelized country potatoes. My wife also loved her Sushka. The flat whites were a bit flat and acidic, but that's American coffee style.

Service was super prompt and unusually friendly. Clearly quite a few tourists in there. If you're staying in one of the many nearby hotels, forgo breakfast and eat here!

Vegetarian options: Quite a few veggie options

Wheelchair accessibility: Spacious, no steps“

“The food, the presentation, the service.“

“Such a fun, iconic spot! I loved the atmosphere and it was really easy to find parking. The food was fantastic also, and I'd recommend in particular the bouillabaisse and the shrimp scampi.

The service, however, was lackadaisical. It took nearly an hour to get our food, and the server didn’t bring the appetizer first (in fact it didn't even arrive with the main meal). He seemed unconcerned about our experience.“

“Finally went by The Third Floor for pre-dinner drinks in their beautiful patio. Truly a hidden gem in SF downtown, I was blown away with how tranquil and chic it was. The service left much to be desired (may have just been understaffed but service was slow and felt disorganized). Had a couple small apps that were fine, want to come back for a full meal to give a proper review. Drinks were great though.“

“The exceptional service is enough to put The Patio on my favorite list 😊“

“I always have a good time great food💕“

“The food was so delicious! I’m from the LA/ Orange County area and I will be making a trip back here when I return to San Francisco!“

“I must say i had high hopes but the meal was tasteless but my friends had too much salt. I wanted to like it. Wont return, wont recommend. ☹“

“Cozy place for breakfast in town. Good foods mixture between American and Thai highly recommend friendly 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!“

“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.“

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

“This is our “go to” place in Sausalito for my wife and I so we decided to take our visitors from Canada here. Everything was going well until my order, the bone in veal chop special, arrived more than 5 minutes later than everyone else's main course. The issue is that when my order arrived, there was a barely an apology or any offers to adjust our bill. Sad.“

“Food was good! Atmosphere was fun!“

“Happy hour 🍻 deal is so good 😊“

“Came for Happy Hour on a Monday and unfortunately didn't have the best experience. We waited at the door for about 5-6 minutes before being acknowledged, and the inside was almost empty. The bartender was talking with someone, and there was no server/host/hostess, so we awkwardly stood there, glancing at the menus. There was a sign that said, please wait to be seated, so we didn't want to barge in, but there was no acknowledgment from the bartender that she would be right with us, so it was an unfriendly welcome. Additionally, we searched for someone to order, so we gave up and went to the bar. Also, we grabbed a bottle of water because we couldn't catch anyone's attention. The menu is what they have online. We had a glass of the Cabernet Sauv and Sauvignon Blanc, which was nothing too special but decent pours for happy hour. We also got the grilled cheese and BBQ Chicken Slider. The grilled cheese was a very large portion but quite bland. However, if you're looking for quantity, it's great. The slider was quite flavorful, but for $7, I expect more than a single slider of that size. Though they don't advertise it to be multiple sliders, they aren't purposely misleading. Overall, might come back on a more lively evening, but wouldn't go out of my way to make it back.“

“A delightful neighborhood venue 😊❗️“

“The Exploratorium has been a huge part of my life. Growing up in San Francisco, I went there constantly, and it’s what first sparked my love for science. I’ll never forget the old location it’s a childhood memory I’ll always hold onto, but the new space on the waterfront is such an upgrade and so much more accessible for everyone. Every exhibit is so well thought out, creative, and fun to explore. No matter how many times I visit, there’s always something new to discover. Anytime I’m back in the city, I make sure to spend at least a day (or two!) at the Exploratorium. Truly one of San Francisco’s treasures.“

“Yeah this place rocks. Would totally 100% come back here. Bartender was incredible totally has a cool SF classic north beach bar vibe. Lots of room for everyone and a spectacular outside seating to just have a beer and watch the world go by. Come here for a wholesome local experience or for a fun dive bar vibe.

Had the ham sandwhich holy crap. For a dive bar it was kinda perfect. Bread that was toasted perfectly with a delicious jam. Come here.“

“The food and service is always impeccable!“

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

“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.“

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

“I don't know if crispy is what a cheesesteak traditionally is, but it's what it should aspire to be. This place was an accidental choice based on where we were, and it was excellent.

Dietary restrictions: I have kind of an unusual sensitivity, and the fellow behind the counter was willing and able to answer my questions so I could be confident ordering.

I make no effort to keep halal, but it is offered here.

Parking: The nearby BART station is a much better choice.“

“We had friends coming to visit from Arizona and wanted to take them somewhere special for dinner. We heard about the newly reopened Paseo in Mill Valley and decided to try it. We were welcomed by the friendly manager Kevin as we entered. After giving us a tour we were seated in the main dining room by a cozy fireplace. We ordered cocktails along with a charcuterie board and roasted Brussels sprouts. At the recommendation of our knowledgeable waiter Will, my sister and I ordered the beet salad. One of our guests had the Market Green Salad and another raved about her Potato Leek Soup. Wanting to try different entrees we ordered California Halibut, Braised Osso Busco, Mary's Chicken Breast, Rib Eye Steak, and Roasted Duck Breast with orange glaze. The taste and presentation exceeded our expectations. As we were enjoying coffee along with Chocolate Indulgence, a (layered torte) and a Peanut Crunch Bar, Chef Branden approached our table to see how we enjoyed our meal. We all told him how much we enjoyed the food, his beautiful presentation, and the smiling staff. We had a great five star experience and will definitely be back!“

“Very laid back, quiet bar and restaurant. Hawaiian pizza was excellent, potato skins very good with a little kick from the Sriracha sauce lightly drizzle. Also had a High West cask old fashioned and it was very smooth without being too sweet. Service was very professional. Highly recommended.“

“The sweetest waitress I've ever had! Food was to die for, the Salmon BLT has me on the floor swooning it was so good. The Lemonade I had with it was not overly sweet and had a amazing lemon level. 10/10 would be an amazing place to bring anyone to, friends, family, first date, and great for coworkers!“

“If you're thinking about a place to have a party, I can't recommend Ounces enough! Waz and his team were so lovely to work with, and they helped plan the perfect afternoon. Lawn games, tasty food, delicious sips, relaxing atmosphere, and friendly service.

Outside of events, it's also just a fantastic place to drink a cold beverage in the sunshine. I've taken a book with me and relaxed on the lovely patio, during the times I wasn't there with friends.

This place is truly a hidden gem at the Northgate Mall.“

“Great Food Great Vibe😀“

“The downstairs lounge is an amazing space to host private dinners. There is no noise interference from the outside, the bank vault feel gives is a very special atmosphere, and the staff were very efficient and friendly in looking after us. For private events in SF, this is now our go-to option! Oh, and the cocktails were absolutely outstanding - many participants told me that!“

“Quince is utter perfection. A beautiful restaurant. As a solo diner, I sat at the 4 seat bar. Service was extraordinary, every dish and glass of wine was explained. And the food is tremendous - from the small pre-meal tastings to the small post-meal dessert tastings, everything is delicious and perfectly prepared. The tasting menu included caviar, fish, pasta, lamb and figs. The wine pairings were just right. A wonderful lunch ever.“

“This place was awesome. Great service (I had the gift of great company as well). I did The Omelette of the day which was delightful and probably one of the most perfect omelets I've ever had and the tuna tartare which was wonderful. Overall a fantastic experience. I will definitely be back the next time I'm in the Marina. My friend had the burger in brioche with extra crispy fries and the cauliflower bechamel. All delightful.“

“The best! Great hospitality; Lalo is a great cook!“
