“perfect balance of spice and flavor.

I ordered the medium heat level, which had a great kick but wasn’t overpowering. For those looking for a real challenge, they have hotter options too, but beware – it’s not for the faint of heart! The sides were a nice complement, especially the creamy mac and cheese and tangy coleslaw, which helped cool things down.

The atmosphere was casual and laid-back, making it a great spot for a quick bite with friends or a casual lunch. The staff was friendly and happy to explain the menu for first-timers. One small downside was the wait time during peak hours, but it’s worth it for fresh, made-to-order food.

Overall, if you’re a fan of hot chicken or just looking to spice up your meal, Faces Hot Chicken is the place to be. Just make sure you come prepared for the heat!

Rating: 4.5/5

Feel free to tweak this based on your experience!“

“This coffee shop is a must-visit in Novato!
Their Tuxedo coffee, a delicious white and black chocolate mocha, is clearly a local favorite. They also boast a great selection of tasty smoothies and a large menu with plenty of breakfast options. Despite a steady line of customers, even on weekdays, service is extremely fast – both food and coffee are ready in no time! While the scrambled eggs were a bit bland and the sandwich was just okay, the exceptional drinks and speedy, yet friendly, service make this a fantastic and relaxing spot.“

“Eclectic restaurant in the old part of Hamilton field. Inside and outside seating. Really good and fresh calamari, where you can actually taste the squid. Fish tacos are excellent, fresh fish perfectly cooked and good value. Shrimp tacos were also good. Fettuccine jambalaya had a well developed sauce with a good mix of proteins. Finished with a Snickers cheesecake and strawberry pavlova, both excellent. Service was good with very friendly staff. Only downside was the smell of the deep fat fryer, probably should have sat outside. Recommended and will return.“

I got the flautas plate (chicken version) with rice and beans and loved the lettuce, cheese, guac, tomato, and side of some sort of crunchy/vinegary slaw. The melon agua fresca was a great-tasting and refreshing beverage for this thirsty traveler. Very glad I chose to come here!“

“I'm not sure what I love more - the wide range of tasty salads full of tasty fresh ingredients, or the quite unbelievably cosy but open outdoor seating. Whoever designed their outdoor space deserves a medal. You would never know that you were sitting next to a parking lot. The people at Hop Monk could learn a lot from it. My go-to choice is always the Waldorf salad. I never get bored of coming here. Novato needs more places like this
