50 Best Italian Restaurants near San Anselmo

“The food and wine are fantastic!“

“A fantastic restaurant right in downtown. It is small and quaint. The service was very attentive and helpful.The food was good. Slightly better than I was expecting, but not quite worth five stars.I would definitely come back if I was in the area. It's a very solid choice for a good dinner.“

“Found Lasagna Today on the website as I was looking for a vegetarian lasagna for our Thanksgiving dinner. I called the number and spoke to Francesco and explained what I was looking for. The family size lasagna was delivered 2 days prior to Thanksgiving along with garlic bread and heating instructions. What can I say? Wow, the vegetarian lasagna was excellent! The cream sauce was so good and complimented the vegetables. My family loved it! We all had seconds! We plan to order more lasagna in the future and try a bolognese. Highly recommend Lasagna Today! Excellent!!!!!“

“Stefano's is our favorite work night pizza place! Thursday us pizza night at our house, and we stop by for quick slices and salad. The food is always delicious and the staff are friendly and helpful. It's also fun to listen to Brazilian Portuguese being spoken. All I can say is "Obregado!"“

“A wonderful first time experience at Luna Blu with my sisterfriend Betty on Wednesday, June 29th. Excellent, friendly service by Chrissie and she was kind enough to make suggestions since I am a Vegan. THANK YOU Chrissie. The owner took a moment to come to our table and we expressed our satisfaction and delight with her. Plan to visit again. Smiles from Baltimore.“

“My Girlfriend and I were finishing up an awesome weekend in Gualala and were really craving some pasta on the way home. After Googling places near us she decided on Il Davide. As soon as we entered we felt the warmth of a proper Italian restaurant. The Hostess asked if we had reservations, I told her we did not. She was very kind and accommodating and found a table for us anyways. Her service was Great! Our waiter was very friendly. I ordered my usual, Lasagna! The food came out in a timely fashion and sure did hit the spot. If we are ever in the area again we will definitely have more Il Davide. 10 out of 10, I recommend!“

“Food was really good and the wait staff was very friendly and helpful. Cute place. Good idea for decorations“

“One of the few places open on a Monday. Sat outside because it was a beautiful late summer evening (Looking forward to dining inside!). Service was prompt, friendly, and professional. Complementary focaccia was to die for! We couldn't resist the two papardelle offerings, one with mushrooms and cream sauce, the other with summer veggies. Perfect portions, super delicious. The wine offerings were reasonably priced and high quality. The chef and her crew is doing everything right. Will be back!“

“Great place to have a delicious dinner, friendly staff and amazing food.“

“Amazing food amazing food did I mention amazing food Staff is also very nice and friendly… can’t wait to go back and bring family and friends“

“THE WINE…just order the wine and everything will be ok in the world again! Great blends from Napa Valley , as good as any expensive vineyard , the owner blends and creates them for years, STRONG WINE, UNBELIEVABLE TASTE! The food is amazing, I’m a New Yorker and loved it ! The gluten free pasta was done to perfection! Wished I lived closer…we would be there every week! The ambiance and staff were inviting , and the owner is a vibe unto himself! Our waiter was from NYC too and he gave us a sheet of poems to take with us! Overall, great experience! ✌️❤️🌈 @thehappiesthippie !“

“Everything on the menu is delicious & the staff is the BEST Our favorite“

“Love take out. The best minestrone and garlic bread. Yummy. Try it.“

“One of my favorite places in Tiburon ❤️
-Food is A+. They adjust the menu seasonally which I love. Right now it's tomato season among other things, and I'm so happy with their dishes.
-Service/People. A++. Off the charts service. Family owned and everyone has worked together for years. Everyone is positive, professional and knowledgeable. Very welcoming! You feel like you're part of a big Italian family. ❤️
-Ambiance. I love every area but tend to prefer the outdoor patio and bar. Always so joyful, and when it's nice out, you're in for a treat.“

“What an incredible find! In town for the weekend and found this spot based on reviews - and indeed, there was absolutely spectacular food, kind, attentive service, and delicious drinks. If we lived nearby, we would be here constantly! We especially loved the beef ragu pappardelle, butternut squash ravioli, basque cheesecake, and pistachio ricotta cake. Don’t miss this if you are nearby!“

“Stopped there for lunch and it was delicious. Lasagna and Cioppino was delicious 😁“

“Stopped in for lunch. I had the best pizza. Delicious crust! The pepperoni was so yummy it was crispy like bacon. Every bite was scrumptious! I had to control myself to save the last piece. I want to have it for breakfast.

I splurged and had dessert and coffee. Excellent! The bread pudding was satisfying! Done just right!

I want to go back to The Village on Grant Ave again and have their pasta and yes more pizza! But also the Tiramisu.

At some point I hope to return and try having Sunday Brunch.

Service is excellent! Friendly place, plenty of street parking.“

“marvelous! Everything was superb. The brussel sprout salad was delicious. the main courses fantastic. I had the clams they were delicate and perfectly cooked. service was super friendly. prices are very reasonable. I would frequent this place if I lived here. you should go!!“

“We had a great experience at Chianti Cucina! The interior was charming, the staff was friendly, and the food was excellent. I ordered the veal osso bucco ravioli, which was outstanding. My girlfriend ordered a pear and prosciutto pizza with a gluten free crust, and also raved about her food.“

“Muy rica la comida y excelente servicio“

“We had the most delicious pastas and wine! The service was fantastic as well. We highly recommend TKT for your next night out!! Even our toddler was impressed!“

“I always enjoy eating an early dinner at Marin Joes, the wait staff have been there forever, so regardless of how long it’s been since your last visit… you will recognize them and hopefully they remember you. I cannot get enough of the prime rib, the veggies were perfectly Al dente and the service superb!! Thank you Marin Joes for yet another wonderful meal!!!“

“Wonderful service! They even surprised us with a complimentary dessert for our Anniversary—which was a delicious crème brûlée! I didn't really care for their house Cabernet Sauvignon (a little vinegary), but their house Chianti was excellent! I ordered the black cod because it isn't available back at home in the Midwest and I had some at a restaurant in Mendocino...where it was prepared so deliciously it tasted like lobster. At Angelino's though I was given a tail end and it didn't taste as good as in Mendocino. Also, I asked them to substitute the potatoes for any other non-starchy vegetable they had but instead of substituting they just brought the fish on a bed of spinach. The spinach was delicious but I probably should have made sure the waiter understood that I wanted a substitution instead of just an exclusion. I did not complain though since everything else was delicious Also, my husband was in a wheelchair and they were very accommodating, which we greatly appreciated.“

“We enjoyed a wonderful Father’s Day dinner! Ryan was very kind, attentive, and enjoyable as he waited on my family. The rib eye steaks were perfectly cooked medium rare as we requested and the chef made a minor change to our menu due to our dietary needs without issue. The fresh bread smelled heavenly and was quickly devoured! We will be back!“

“The restaurant Marché is one of my favorites in Marin County, a place where I had my 85th birthday party and where I can count on extraordinary food and service and ambience. The outdoor patio is delightful, and it's wonderful to be in a place where the noise level is low and manageable. We went on "hamburger night," and the hamburgers were cooked to perfection as requested, and the gnocchi ordered by another member of our party were as close to authentic as one can get (and I was raised in Italy). I would recommend Marché for those dinners that are special as well as more casual. It will never disappoint!“

“We came across the Osteria Divino restaurant by chance, and of course we were amazed by the live piano. Which was a bit strong for my musical ears ?but if I was less tired I would have appreciated the music.
But we were pleasantly welcomed by putting ourselves in the back with our 4 year old child which was ideal for us because we are always afraid of disturbing people. We had lasagna and carbonara pasta and it was truly amazing! The atmosphere is quite dark but perfect for a candlelit dinner atmosphere. For our part, this subdued atmosphere really calmed our child.

This is definitely a restaurant that I recommend if you come here.

Kid-friendliness: We had a dish each with my partner and asked for a separate plate to share our dish with our child. Because they were good portions.“

“the ambience and great cuppachino“

“This place is absolutely amazing. Best value pizza in Marin. I recommend getting Sicilian as it is massive and amazingly tasty. We come back often, and while it’s not Michelin star level pizza, it is very solid and gets the job done.

Vegetarian options: Plenty of options

Parking: Plenty“

“Delicious food and wonderful ambiance. Loved by locals and tourists!“

“Bopped in for a bite on a cool Monday evening hoping for cozy but the place is bit well lit and stark. Also they don't heat the place and it was cold inside, everyone in jackets. Sounds negative but that was turned around by some fantastic pasta, namely the Gamberoni alla Busara. Heads on shrimp in a garlicky tomato cream sauce provided deep layers of flavor, bravo! I almost ate the plate it came on.“

“I have eaten here probably over 40 times. Over the years one thing that stands out is being treated well when I come alone which is more often than not. I usually have Caesar salad which is delicious and the gambini dish prawns sautéed spinach. Have had the salmon which is great. The choices for a glass of wine to me are limited and nothing that I love. Outside seating I enjoy more than indoors especially in the back of the restaurant, it can get loud inside. Sometimes service not the best too busy not enough servers but they are all lovely and warm and try their best. I like that I am comfortable at this restaurant mostly but good food and great location.“

“Great good and service, feels like being in Rome!“

“Great Food!!! Great Service!“

“Eduardo the manager has really helped transform this restaurant. What was once just OK had become a reliably great spot. Special shout out to the exceptional Cesar salad with white anchovies, the thin crust pizza and the Sunday Sicilian hash (that’s actually spicy, yay!) and the consistently thoughtful service. A constant go-to.“

“Italian Delite Submarine Sandwiches Thank you for supporting the Lucky Run this past Sunday to benefit Novato High School's Safe & Sober Grad Night. We appreciate you! Safe and Sober Grad of Novato“

“We sat outside in the courtyard with white table cloth tables and had a wonderful meal ! Service was very good and our server was very attentive. The presentation of the food was outstanding and delicious! We highly recommend this restaurant!“

“The restaurant is lovely, it feels like a small small trataria Italy. The service was perfect, very conscious of the customer's needs. The burrata salad was delicious as was the pizza. The pizzas are cooked, as one would expect in a wood fired stove and are absolutely the best in every way. I want to go back and go through the menu and eat every thing.“

“Great services, friendly“

“This cafe verde pizzaeria is a gem for pizza lovers! with a perfect crust and fresh toppings . Don’t miss the tiramisu—it’s so smooth that it practically melts in your mouth. A must-visit for anyone craving delicious pizza and a heavenly dessert!“

“Very comfortable, family oriented restaurant with great food and service“

“Great people, always fun to bring our Northbay Salsa Diabla event there. They have become family. Thank you!“

“I recently ordered pizza from boca in Novato. The manager Jorge was welcoming and the staff was very fast to get the order ready. It was one of the best sausage pizza’s I have had. Very thin, and crispy crust with great flavors. You can tell it’s hand made to order. Can’t wait to go back.“

“Best kept secret of Southern Marin! Family owned and so many Brazilian treats to try! Everything new thing I try just blows me away and you will always leave happy and feel like family!“

“This place was excellent! A little hole in the wall right off of the 101. Me and my husband were driving home late from SF and wanted to grab a bite to eat on the way home. This place is open until 130 in the morning, so makes a great late night option. The crust is made of sourdough and is the perfect amount of crispy and chewy. The sauce was tangy and rich and the toppings tasted fresh. Overall 10/10. The atmosphere wasn't anything to write home about but the food and the guy making the pizzas were excellent and made the hole in the wall vibe. Will go again the next time I'm driving out of the city late at night.“

“Not many places have that old school. Feel to it with the new world charm. But this place does. It's one of my favorite places in marine not because of an nostalgia. But because of quality, the manager seemed nice or the owner. I don't know who he was. But the you made me wanna come back. Food of course was tasty.“

“I stopped in here craving pizza... I was immediately greeted and made to feel welcome. They have a large menu with pizza, pastas & salads. I got a large chicken barbecue pizza. It was amazing. The fresh & quality ingredients really made the pizza fantastic. This is a busy & popular restaurant so I recommend calling in your order. I noticed a lot of customers doing this while I was there.. Thanks for the great experience.. Be back soon
