“So convenient how they have the salads pre packaged and lined up on the refrigerated shelves.

They have THE Best Chinese Chicken salad ever! I love the almonds - it blends so perfectly with the whole salad! Definitely would buy again 😊“

“Love everything on the menu! You can’t go wrong with it!!“

“I’ve been coming here for years because they have one of the very best ham and cheese croissants in Marin county and also an excellent mocha that is not too sweet. But today I tried the California Benedict for the first time and was amazed. Not only does it taste great but the presentation is gorgeous And for $16.50 it’s a pretty good deal.“

“I can’t recommend the Garden Cafe enough! I had a wonderful first experience here today having lunch. The food was delicious & nutritious- I got the Salmon Greek Salad (comes with garlic bread) and the “San Rafael Sunrise” drink, which is a juice including veggies and chia seeds. Lots of seating options indoors and outdoors with good lighting. Free wifi for those looking for a good study spot.
The service was AMAZING and contributed to creating such a friendly, inviting atmosphere. I have to give a special shout-out to Miguel, who was so gracious and apologetic about my juice being made wrong the first time. They were out of beets and I believe Miguel called someone and had more beets brought in while I was eating lunch so that I had a corrected juice with beets to enjoy before I finished eating! To be clear, I told Miguel it was completely fine that they were out of beets but he insisted it wasn’t fair to not get what I ordered and made sure I got my beet juice. I can vouch for how much the Garden Cafe values each customer there! I will be recommending to friends and coming back.“

“I was enjoy my lunch today“

“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!“

“What a great place, a hidden jewel in the city! Fresh fish, fresh chips and guacamole… Everything was perfect! DELICIOUS❣️ We will return…“

“Pretty good. Food was better than average. Service wasn't great. Each time someone came to our table, no one ever cleared empty plates. Then when we asked someone to, they said it wasn't their job and they would tell someone else, which is just strange. The atmosphere was nice. Good place to hangout and chill.

Kid-friendliness: Very“

“Talked myself into trying something different today... Fried chicken thighs and it wasn't up to par as the pork belly is. The chicken may have been over bribed as I found it real salty :-(“

“Such fresh good food. I made my own scramble it was beyond delicious!!!“

“Love most of all is its quiet ,clean , friendly ,cozy ,country ambience . Having early breakfast or brunch there is a big treat for me, every time. It is also a perfect place for intimate get together with friends or family alike to unwind or just relax. It goes without saying , I love their menu offerings.Muy delicioso!!!“

“Best Mexican restaurant I’ve been to so far in the US.“

“Some of the best Indian food I have had in my life. I love eating Indian food and often try it every country I visit that has it available but Arti's cafe might be the best I have ever had. The flavor was incredible in the dishes we got. The staff was super nice and was able to seat us right before closing on a quiet night. I would highly recommend going if you are in the area.

Parking: There is a parking lot located in front of the building that may get full quickly when the restaurant is more crowded.“

“Cute mom and pop Korean cafe. Feels like a very casual Korean mom meal. Nothing fancy, but definitely prepared with love. Prices very reasonable and all house-made. Good banchan and good texture on the multigrain rice. Healthy and legit. Very happy to see the owner is actually a Korean and not a Caucasian person making mid-fake Asian fast casual food lol. Will def come back and keep supporting this business!“

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

“After a day in the city, we decided to grab a quick bite. Has’ place is rated nearly 5/5 on Google Maps, and it did not disappoint.

Has was incredibly friendly, and his food was amazing! The meatball sandwich was absolutely to die for. When he saw I had my little dog with me, he kindly asked if he could feed her. He brought out a plate full of meat and a bowl of water for her, completely free of charge.

He struck up a conversation with us, sharing stories about his business and life. The food was incredible, and the company made it even better.

I would highly recommend Has’ place to anyone looking for healthy, delicious food served with a smile.

All respect to Has!“

The painting on the wall was so beautiful. The lamb burger was made to perfection it was so juicy and flavorful!

This is the spot to go if you’re looking for authentic great tasting middle eastern food!“

“Lors de notre séjour à San Francisco nous avons découvert Le Marais Bakery. Nous avons ADORÉ, la nourriture est délicieuse et le service vraiment très chaleureux et très professionnel. L’équipe est souriante et au petit soin. N’hésitez pas à vous arrêter pour déguster les délicieuses viennoiseries et/ou les autres plats proposés, vous ne serez pas déçu(e)s!!“

“The fish and chips are delicious!! Im a Brit so eaten a lot of them and must say that these were definitely in the top 3! Fish was super fresh and the batter nice and light.
I also had the huevos rancheros for breakfast on a different day and they were also great, nice blue corn tortillas!
Has a lovely back patio or you can sit out front and people watch. Dog friendly ?‍
Very friendly servers and chill relaxed vibe.“

“This is for the tasting room AND the Advent calendar from 2023.Tasting room - the woman who runs it is very experienced and we enjoyed chatting with her as she explained a variety of wines to us. There were some really delicious ones we had. One thing I found totally obnoxious and unhelpful were the descriptions of the wine. No joke - these were some descriptions. I was cringing so hard reading them.“Like a pair of silky red pajamas”“Like going on a 2nd date”They are trying too hard here to seem cool and it was embarrassing how useless the descriptions were. We are paying for wine, please describe it. This is not a creative writing class. Thank goodness the lady who ran the tasting room was there to give us further explanation about the actual flavor, aromatics or profile we should expect when tasting. She agreed the written descriptions were not as helpful as they could be but it was not her decision. We seriously would not have tried any of the wines just based on those descriptions. I had to knock off one star because of this.Advent calendar - was skeptical based on some shipping issues I read from the previous year. I got mine on time and the variety was good! I would say I really enjoyed about 70% and the 30% were interesting/good, not my favorite but cool to try. I would do it again next year.“

“Really cute family friendly place. Food was delicious although on the expensive side. Had the Bulgogi Tacos, and my wife the morning tacos. Both were really good. Kids had their Mickey Mouse pancakes and they added chocolate chips when the kids asked for it. Very fast service, no wait on a Saturday morning. I would strongly recommend!

Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly with plenty of kid options.“

“My family and I love eating at Bacon. It’s really one of the only breakfast places we dine at and it’s so delicious and filling!“

“went in this bar Monday afternoon after walking across the bridge... very friendly and good vibe“

“Highly, highly recommend this place (of all the banh mi places in SF and Marin). This place is a gem in the North Bay. I've been to both locations, but live closer to the San Rafael deli. As a Vietnamese who grew up eating banh mi (not "bahn" - please stop misspelling this word!, although I understand "bahn" has been spelled like this to make it phonetically easier to pronounce), I vouch for this place. It is wholeheartedly the best banh mi place in the Bay area. Growing up, I lived in a close-knit Vietnamese-American community, and my mother and another lady in our village sold banh mi, so I have a discerning taste for banh mi. This place is totally legit and super authentic. The french bread is just the right texture (light and flaky, but not dense inside). The actual bread in a Vietnamese banh mi is not the same as a french baguette that is more often dense and chewy (and thanks to French colonizers, they left the Vietnamese with french bread and amazing architecture). I know many places in the Bay area that serve more dense baguettes for banh mi, which isn't authentic. The filling is perfect and the right amount with no special brown sauce or gravy. Vietnamese banh mi filling is not sweet, but has a slight tang and citrusy flavor from the pickled carrots and daikon.This is the perfect example of Vietnamese banh mi. I don't normally write reviews, but I want to spread the word that this place serves very good banh mi. Another added value is the price of a banh mi that is 30% less than the price of other places that are now charging $10-13 per baguette. The owners are super sweet, too. If you happen to find yourself in the North Bay and craving a banh mi, or want to find an authentic example, this place is a must!

“What a pleasure it was to dine @ Kitti’s - both mother daughter and the server were extremely friendly and made excellent Thai food that we all ( party of 6 from Seattle , NYC and Bangalore) ate voraciously. It was like a home cooked meal with amazing careful attention all the time. They even shared sweets with us after the meal. They will accommodate your special dietary needs if you request in advance/when you order.

“My favorite Thai restaurant . Great food, wonderful owners .“

“Ordered the chicken and waffles once or did two more times after that , delicious something about that syrup“

“Novato is clearly not done adding wonderful new places for couples and families to spend their time and dollars. Henhouse Record Room is the latest taproom to open up downtown and couldn’t be more welcomed. Great music, food trucks, FFX-only recipes, and plenty of dog friendly room. Right there on Grant street. Get some.“
