50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants San Anselmo

“Excellent food, great service, wine, deserts. The servers actually will give you opinions about the food if you ask. That a test I have: Will the servers give an opinion if asked or will they weasel out. The staff have opinions about the wine, the main courses, dessert. Lovely experience“

“Amazing Asian tofu salad! Only issue is I carried out and didn’t see that you have to pay extra for them to mix it. That is bizarre and was super annoying but it is truly addictive and my boyfriend couldn’t stop talking about it. I wouldn’t change a thing except the staff was rude and the salad should be mixed without an up charge!“

“We recently went here after not going for a while and the food is just incredible. There was a time after they switched owners a few years back where things were a little bit rocky, but we recently went and it was incredible. Get the deviled egg sandwich. Highly recommended.“

“Beautiful establishment with friendly service and a nice beverage selection. However, their food left me desiring more—their peaches weren’t ripe enough and very hard, and their Greek salad seemed more like an arugula/ onion salad with small amounts of tomato and cheese.“

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

“I'm from out of town. our team has been here since December 2022 .we have traveled all over san Francisco and surrounding cities within eating and trying new food's. i will have to say i have found the best wings in san Francisco. tried all three flavors and the were cooked just right with awesome sauce. i definitely recommend stopping there. james swanger from liberty SC“

“#AmazingRestaurant #ScomasSausalito 🥰“

“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…“

“Food is excellent, portions are huge, and the staff is wonderful!! If you are in the Novato area, you owe it to yourselves to try it!! We are from Nebraska, and my wife did a Google search for a place for breakfast! We tried it, and have been back 3 times!! You won't be dissapointed!!“

“Good atmosphere Great food and service“

“Love the place.“

“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 :-(“

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

“Had a fabulous solo dining experience at Buckeye. Black cod on English pea risotto. 😋“

“food is top notch and the bar always manages to overcome being buried!!“

“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.

“My friends and I make the trek from Sac to Stinson at least once a year, and we do our best to stop here for food. The fresh catch fish & chips is always great and their desserts are worth breaking your diet on. Good service, good food, good times.“

“Huge shout out to Juice GIrl for supporting me last week during my spring cleanse. thank you for your high quality products and attention to detail !!! good jobbers!“

“Thank you to Tien and team for a wonderful breakfast and even better service! You were so accommodating to our daughter’s allergy and we felt so well taken care of. Even our dog had her own water dish. We’re so glad you’re part of the Novato community!“

“They have only a few vegan / gf items but all were really good. Salad, broccolini(yum!!) and the build your own gluten free pasta is great!!
So bummed the regular pasta noodles are not vegan! Can’t please everyone but pasta so rarely has eggs, it’s a real sad day when it does. The place is so pretty and in such a cute area of Larkspur, I hope to convince my husband to try the GF pasta because I’d definitely go back.“

“My go-to when I'm in town! Fantastic food and service. Highly recommend!“

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

“Awesome experience celebrating a friend’s birthday.“

“Awesome Food and kind staff!“

“The food was so good that I had to visit here 2 days in a row!

Monica, the owner, was helpful and patient as we asked about the various menu options available. We had kimchi soup with banchan & a protein rice bowl with spicy pork, and both were excellent.
The beverage options were great as well, including everything from Aloe Vera juice and Korean soft drinks to classics like coffee & boba tea.“

“I had the most delicious cardamom rose oatmilk latte! What a treat!“

“When I always visit San Fran I always go to the joinery for lunch or a beverage Food is always fab and the drinks are nicely chilled an crisp 👍 Staff are always lovely and friendly and the place has a lovely relaxed atmosphere and a sun trap Thank you from a international frequent traveller 👍👍“

“The great tasting fresh healthy food made with love by this small business is all you could ask of it. Everything costs a fortune these days but at least your happy and full when you finish here. And to the owners, please keep up the great work, thanks!“

“So incredibly pleased with our experience at this restaurant. From the service to the food everything was perfect.
We came in when they were only doing take out, which we said we were more than okay to do, but they insisted to set up a table for us.
We got the Thai iced tea, salad rolls, pot stickers, pho, and egg noodle dish. Each was so incredible, and some of the best of the dishes Ive tried. Portion sizes were massive, a great price for what you get.
Our drinks were refilled as soon as they were close to empty, and we were given any sauce we could’ve needed, the service was so quick.
The staff was so friendly would highly recommend, a hidden gem:)“

“Their sauce is truly outstanding; you can taste the quality tomatoes. I had the some like it hot and added their house made vegan ricotta, which was creamy, mild and a great complement. Love that they’re vegetarian—whole family ate a meat-free dinner?“

“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“

“Great venue, excellent hosts and good afternoon tea. Always stop by before I fly back to the UK.“

“There were two of us, ordered easily, food came quickly and we shared our pizza & salad. We were there eating and talking for FOUR hours! No one rushed us & they checked to see if we needed anything along our stay. Everything was delicious and we’d go there again! The restaurant was not filled when
We arrived at 1:00 on a weekday and several seated and take out patrons came and went. It was quiet and peaceful. Nice waitstaff too! Highly recommend & we will return in the future! Plus, reasonably priced, which is a perk as well!“

“Awesome coffee and a very comfortable space to sit and enjoy the coffee.“

“Food was great and the service was excellent! Highly recommended.“

“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.“

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

“The best cappuccino in Marin hands down! Been going there for years -- the service has been consistently excellent and the pastries and cakes are quintessential Italian delicacies! Gary and Jeannie Rulli are the dedicated hands-on proprietors -- wonderful people and a blessing to our Larkspur community🥰!“

“woah. i dont really say real deal but real f***** deal. well balanced. superb quality. exceptional service and presentation. clean flavors. first time I have actually been left utterly speechless. 5 stars. 5 forks. whatever. this place is the jam......“

“Great outdoor dining. Great food ! Great service !“

“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.“
