New American Restaurants near Larkspur, CA

“I crave the gnocchi here and I don't even like gnocchi. My kids were mad when they had their fries and said now all other fries are ruined for them. Their Crudo is proportion is tiny but delicious. Had the most Marin kind of pizza - the kale with roasted garlic and it was delish. I could go on...but I need a nap now...“

“A small and cozy place to have breakfast or brunch. The food is filling, but light. The biscuits in the biscuits and gravy were light and not dense. The mushroom soup was delicious. The French toast was nice and custard like in the center. Love the coffee with refills. The service was friendly and attentive. Will definitely come back for more.“

“A wonderful prix fix dinner ! Server was good enough but when he promised to come back to verify our desert desire, he never did .. he brought out the desert he thought everyone would want .. there’s 4 of us .. we don’t all want the same thing .. I just but go as I was plenty full & didn’t really care if i didn’t have “

“We had an amazing experience at Abrazo with our friends! We tried a lot of tapas and all of them were simply delicious. I would particularly recommend the charred octopus, croquetas, albondigas, and gambas. The paella was exceptional, it was one of the best I have ever had in the States. I enjoyed my Rioja a lot. The restaurant had a very lovely vibe and it reminded me of the restaurants in Madrid. The people were kind and the service was excellent. So, I would recommend Abraza to anyone around.“

“When there’s a portrait of Nina Simone on the wall, that’s all you need to know, the foods gonna be amazing, and it was. Everything was delicious and the Socca was exceptional. What I loved most is that its the kind of place friends come to enjoy each other.“

“This is one of my favorites in the Marina. Constantly very high quality food. I almost don’t want to review it because I don’t want it to get too crowded. They are very close to getting a Michelin star! Omg get the pavlova for desert. Their fish is amazing too.“

“The service was impeccable. Everyone worked together seamlessly.First course, added course and dessert was creative and plentiful.We felt the mains fell short of flavor and creativity.I will return when the menu changes as the prix fixed menu is genius and you can’t beat the price.“

“Myself and 3 coworkers were in town for a work conference and we decided to ensure we try local restaurants. Frascati was absolutely fabulous. The food was extremely delicious the atmosphere was amazing. The restaurant is right on the cable car route and that gave it an extra special touch. The service was fantastic. By far one of the best restaurants I have ever been too. Thank you Rebecca and Jon, if I make my way back to San Francisco I will definitely be back!“

“This restaurant feels like it exists somewhere in between what could be a local haunt and a tourist trap. It has a versatile yet contained menu that has a little bit of something for everyone. The burrata appetizer was perfectly executed for a place that isn't designated Italian, and the salad offerings really stood out. I had the ahi tuna and for $20 wish I had a couple more pieces of Ahi but the flavors and seasoning were fantastic. I especially loved the little pieces of sushi style ginger mixed within - delicious. It should also be noted that the service was exceptional, toeing the line between attentive and breathable to a T. They even had an extra kale salad made by accident and brought it over complimentary as we waited for the last of our party to arrive. A+“

“Absolute perfection. My husband and I will remember this evening for the rest of our lives. The food was divine. Flavors, inspired. Service, attentive, delightful, and not intrusive. Each dish was presented with a brief but detailed description so that we could appreciate the food even more. You’ll want this to be your next dining experience. They take it all to the next level of sublime.“

“The weather at 10 o'clock in the morning in San Francisco in April was quite pleasant, with the temperature below 20 degrees Celsius. It felt great to sit outside the restaurant to dine (but it's best not to sit for too long, because there is no awning outside the restaurant, so for a while After a while, the sun will still hurt you).I ordered Russian Hill and chose bacon and cheddar cheese. The chef cooked it into a pie. There were also potato (maybe grilled or fried) and fruit combinations. It was quite delicious and rich.The prices on the meals have been increased, and it is recommended that the store should update them. The overall service quality is good, and the two male waiters are very diligent in greeting customers' needs.“

“Second time since 2021. While price has increased it still offers one of the best value in the area for tasting menu. Most of the courses are on point and creative. my favorite is the jidoji egg. The tortellini is a bit bland, but still good. I like that the atmosphere is intimate and unassuming.“

“We made a reservation for breakfast for our group. It was a special occasion, as we had guests who traveled internationally & we were also celebrating a birthday. The food was delicious! The staff was outstanding- we'd like to shout out Daniela and Carla for going above & beyond in their service. I'll definitely be back.“

“Visited here a few times on my last visit to San Francisco. Fantastic place with friendly Staff and a lovely waterfront view. The food is amazing as well, particularly the BBQ chicken wings which were absolutely lush! Definitely recommend and will be back on my next visit!“

“It’s a great bar for your first date; but no one returns to it ; and therefore it’s not a neighborhood bar; but It’s exterior architecture - a transportation hub / station converted to a bar - is startlingly good; but the interior doesn’t create a sense of belonging.Stools are designed to traumatize your posterior; perhaps a short date is best ; the beer and snacks and the service are great but without the neighborly feeling , it’s just another brick in the wall;“

“Lovely meal last night! Dishes were creative, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. Wine list and guidance were terrific complements. Ambience was relaxing. Service was wonderfully personable and prompt. The only (good) problem - the diverse menu presented too many alluring choices for one dinner, so we will be back for sure. Thank you for a terrific dinner!“

“We had dinner here last night for the first time. It began with the starters. The Gilda was delicious with white anchovy and olive. Then the smoked mussels and tartare. We have had good tartare before, never with hazelnuts. This was a nice twist with a delicate crunch. Main course, the table had the pork chop, halibut and hen. All were done very well. The beer list was great! They had beers from France, Quebec and a local variety. Finished the night with some very airy and fluffy beignets. They were amazing. I need to finish will how professional and great the staff was. Top notch! Excited to visit this place again to experience another wonderful meal.“

“This is the first place we ate on our trip, and it set the bar HIGH we absolutely loved it. They had some awesome gf options!I started with the house made lemonade and was absolutely in love. The perfect lemonade, I wish it had been free refills because I would’ve drank 7 cups at least. Then we had the tarp chips with siracha aioli and was pleasantly surprised how well the earthy chips with the tangy sauce went together. Yum!I had the steak frites with truffle fries and it was phenomenal! My husband had the fried chicken sandwich with fries and said it was one of the best he’d ever had! (And he has tried lots of chicken sandwiches!)10/10 would eat here again the staff was so friendly and accommodating and made us feel right at home. Dietary restrictions: They had awesome attitudes and were very knowledgeable and willing to make alterations to dishesKid-friendliness: While kids could definitely eat here, the vibe is much more geared towards adults.“

“The BEST voila french toast I've ever had! Ordered the combo with 2 eggs and spicy honey bacon and the Bavocado omelette. All our food was really good and so glad we stopped at this place for breakfast while in town. Definitely a must try and when we come back to SF, we will definitely come here again. The inside is also a French ambiance which was really nice. If you haven't tried this place or if you're in town, TRY IT.“

“(March 2024) First time trying the Caprice. Food was good, views of Golden Gate Bridge were fantastic! I wouldn't go there just for the food. Pretty pricey. You're not paying for the quality of the meal, your paying for the ambience and the views.“

“We went here on a Saturday night for a quick dinner before attending a private party in their patio area. We got there around 8:15 and were seated immediately. Service was excellent. Cocktails were tasty. We ordered a Cobb salad, two pork belly entrées, and some truffle fries. Everything was delicious. The pork belly came with a buttery polenta. After dinner we moved to the middle patio for a private party and service was awesome. I wasn't sure what to expect and was very pleasantly surprised. We chose tipsy pig because it was convenient and the same place as our party. I highly recommend this Gastropub.“

“Wish there was a 4.5 Star! Cuz it wasn't quite 5, but more than 4. Food was beautiful and well presented, atmosphere was classy..And service... I think was changing shifts so we got dropped a bit and waited around for quite a while to order.“

“Great brunch! We had an outdoor table in the sunny cool air. Lots of people were eating brunch. Our server came right away. . We had eggs Benedict with millionaires bacon, galbi jjn Benedict. And I had beef bulgogi fried rice. My beef bulgogi was good but a little mild - I ordered a side of Kim chi to spice it up. The setting was beautiful !“

“Ounces is such a great addition to Terra Linda! The food and drink menus change often and are consistently phenomenal. Sometimes I'm in the mood for a cider, wine or a beer and I've never been disappointed! Trivia on Wednesdays is always fun, and the weekends have a live music.“

“Solid spot in Pacific Heights. It was easy to do a walk in and find parking nearby. It does feel a bit cramped with the seating style but they make the most of the seating by the window and communal seating vibe. Drinks were good. Highly recommend the prickly pear. We also ordered an old fashion and came with a glass half full and noting that they seem to charge a $1 if you ask for a large ice cube. Food was good, the naan and mushroom hummus has a strong mushroom flavor so best if you’re sharing as it can be overwhelming after multiple bites. The steamed buns were super delicious too and a treat since we don’t order those often. They also add an automatic 20% to your bill so just be cautious. Wish they would just add it to their pricing and remove that addition but everywhere seems to be leaning on this.“

“Nice to finally find a place to eat real and excellent food in SF as most places up the Pier areas are just fried fried and fried with obligatory French fries. One of us had the salmon which was gorgeous but the chicken pot pie was a revelation with loads of meat and veg with a creamy sort of stroganoff sauce and thin buttery top crust. Given that we had paid paid more for a burger in LA airport on the way to SF having a lovely meal for less was excellent. If you are near the Marina or Fillmore Street area please check it out. Nicest food I have had after 12 days in SF and Los Angeles.“

“Small cool little spot. The sweet potatoes tacos are the reason I come here! They are legit ! Def the crowd you’d expect, but the tacos are legit, and the burrata are me two favs, but mainly those sweet potato tacos !Vegetarian options: Plenty of choices and gluten freeDietary restrictions: Vegan gluten free choices worth checking outParking: Good luck“

“Sunday brunch was epic. Get the Americana burger (one of the best in SF) with roasted onions and crispy onions on the side. Also get the toasted French toast and the banana cake with mascarpone and chocolate. Servers very helpful, vibrant vibe, nice crowds. Highly recommended. Parking can be tricky but you’ll probably find something if your circle for 5 mins or so.Parking: Parking can be tricky but you’ll probably find something if your circle for 5 mins or so.“

“I often come here to sit outside under the trees in front of the fire to hear Irish music or jazz or whatever they have on . I always liked it but when I decided to host an event here for 50 people I was simply blown away by how easy they were to work with, how delicious the catering was, the lovely convivial environment, and the reasonable pricing. This venue is exactly the right size for the number of people, has a good layout and flattering light and great service. I heartily recommend Belle Cora for both casual evenings out and for special events.“

“I am from Danville and decided to make the drive to SF to explore. After a long morning drive I decided to look for a good spot for drinks and food on a Sunday. I was skeptical at first but then the atmosphere and my server Mia made my time here worth the drive. The service provided by Mia was impeccable. She answered my dietary restriction questions about the menu, had good energy, and provided fast service. I will be stopping at Wilder the next time I am in the city from here on out!“

“Reviews are consistent with the experience. The food was so good, every single dish was inventive, hearty, and non-pretentious. Good mix of flavors and food and I can tell they out a lot of thought into inventive recipes. I saw one bad review on this place and I must say that is not accurate at all. Staff was super friendly, checking on us constantly, food and wine were perfect. Very unexpected pleasant experience as it's not pretentious yet the food was amazing. Good job!“

“Such a gem! I was in the city for a day and this place was very close to my hotel. I am so glad I stumbled upon it! The service was fabulous; the humans that work there are so kind and genuine. The wine was killer and appetizers were reasonably priced and delish! I had the pork belly roll and olives. The food and wine did not disappoint.“

“This was a truly wonderful and exceptional experience. My husband and I could not have asked for a better birthday celebration. The staff was so warm and welcoming and attentive and the food and wine was, of course, incredible. It was a one-of-a-kind evening that we’ll cherish.“

“This has always been a staple in the neighborhood. The food is reliably good, great service, good wine list. This is a go-to spot for a cute date night. We had the pork chops which were so savory and moist! Get the brussels sprouts- the flavor was outstanding.“

“A wonderful experience at Kientz Hall! We hosted baby shower in the beautiful Atrium space this past weekend. Everything was perfect. Our mostly out of town guests were impressed with the beautiful space, the delicious food and drink, and the gracious service from the Kientz Hall team. My husband and I enjoyed showing off what our beloved San Anselmo has to offer!Thank you Linda, Samantha, Elaina, and Fernando for a wonderful afternoon with friends and family!“

“This gem is perfect for a night out w/ friends, Happy Hour or a quick bite to eat. There are two bars and plenty of open seating including the options of a booth or table. One time I even dropped in here last minute w/ 8 of my coworkers and they were super accommodating. Shoutout to one of their managers or bartenders named Chris. I've dealt w/ him a few times and he's always super friendly, knowledgeable about the menu & wines/beer and makes you feel like "sometimes you want to go where they all just know your name".“

“Very tasty somewhat deconstructed Caesar salad with wonderful white anchovies! Pork chop to die for. Good cocktails, beautifully cooked scallops. Only wish the sauce on the scallops had been less salty but glad i ordered them. A bit noisy but nice cozy fire to keep us warm. Will return.“

“Came here on a Friday night mainly because it was the only place in the neighborhood still serving food after 10pm! Ordered bar "bites" expecting smaller portions but boy were we wrong. We quickly ordered at the bar, grabbed a high top table, and the food starting coming out almost right away. We ordered a Caesar, popcorn shrimp, fries, and pizza. Thank goodness they "forgot" the pizza because they probably realized we ordered a lot more than we thought because the other things were served in huge bowls, enough to feed a family. It was surprisingly good for bar food, and my friend and I will definitely be back if we find ourselves near fidi at night and hungry!“

“Enjoyed a nice afternoon lunch with my 4yo son after a trip to Alcatraz. Was beautiful to sit outside in the patio, drank some delicious beer, and really enjoyed my burger. Something about it really hit the spot: perfectly cooked, nice portions, and it didn’t fall apart. One of the better burgers I’ve had in a long time. Kiddo also loved his focaccia as well. Would come back again!Oh one thing: Not super kid friendly. They don’t have high chairs or booster seats.Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly. They don’t have high chairs or booster seats.“

“Valentine's Day dinner with bae. So we made reservations at Bagatella we still had a wait even though we got there prior to our reservations. It was packed and. Due to it being another cold wet night in SF outside seating wasn't an option for most. So we ended up finally being seated in the back booth lucky us cause in the front it's a bit tight on the seatings especially on the left side. I'm not going complain. Like I said we got a booth our server was Great pleasant and inviting. For V day they had prefix menu We got the heirloom tomatoes and crab cakes. The crab cakes were perfectly crispy on the outsides and delicious and moist on the inside. The heirloom tomatoes and the fresh mozzarella drizzled with the balsamic we also both enjoyed the lightness and freshness of the dish. For our main course we both picked the lamb shank on a bed of risotto. The lamb was fork tender already deboned in a delicious sauce reduction. The risotto was definitely the star of this dish though creamy seasoned buttery and al dente. For dessert we chose the bread pudding and key lime pie. The custard filling on the key like was velvety smooth sweet and tart all at the same time. The bread pudding wasn't your typical bread pudding. It tasted more like cake then just bread and topping it off with that vanilla ice cream was a great job. Overall we both enjoyed our experience here. The lemon drop martini yes yes“

“♿ = generally accessible. It's up stairs, but there are signs showing how wheelchairs can get up⭐= Great music, service, food and drinksWheelchair accessibility: ♿ = generally accessible. It's up stairs, but there are signs showing how wheelchairs can get up“

“Awesome place to see a show. It’s a small room so even if you’re in the back it’s all good. Enthusiastic staff and you can tell they enjoy working here. Jackie Greene rules!!! Don’t miss him when he does his 3-night run every winter.“

“Looks like this used to be some fancy dinner restaurant at the Ritz, but now is only the breakfast restaurant Good a la carte items every morning while staying at the Ritz. But it’s a 20 minute wait for food (if crowded, wait goes up to 30 or 40 min) and expensive. Good service“

“Our first time here, we loved it. The food was extremely tasty, we had the butternut squash soup and the chicken lunch special with plantains. The service was excellent and fast, the music was a tiny bit too loud, but the food was perfect…“

“Highly recommended. I search for a dinner and walk myself to this. The salmon is very crispy and tasty, the service is better than expected, I don't remember the name of the girl who served me, but she is very friendly and lovely. The asmosphere is a good combination of good dining restaurant and bar. Love to come here when I visit San Francisco next time.“

“This is one of the few dining venues near the Palace of Fine Arts and it’s a very good one. The farm to table vegetables accompanying my salmon were outstanding. The salmon was also great.The location right on the edge of the Presidio has lovely grounds and the building interior has a modern minimalist aesthetic.On the Saturday evening we went it wasn’t too crowded and service was prompt.So if you’re going to a performance at PoFA and only want to park once this is a great dining option before your show.“
