We had a fabulous dinner o a rainy Sunday evening. The Gnocchi were deliious, so light and fluffy that they melt in your mouth. The waitstaff was gracious and very attentive. It is one of my favorite restaurants in Marin.

This is one of my favorite restaurants. Food is excellent, very European in presentation and portion size, with good variety. The staff is extremely professional, and will likely remember you on future visits. Atmosphere is very warm and comfortable.

Delicious, authentic Italian food. Servers are attentive and awesome. It feels like a family is serving you and you're in Italy! we eat her over and over again. The food is so good

Valenti continues to be the absolute peak of fine Italian dining in Marin. The staff are amazing, the atmosphere is fancy but feels so comfortable and welcoming. The wine and food are better than I've ever tasted anywhere else. I plan to keep coming back for special occasions (and not so special) until I'm old and grey. ❤️❤️❤️

With the chef owner in the kitchen every night leading the food preapration himself, this restaurant never misses. Plus, the front of house staff is excellent, always recognizing regulars and treating new diners with care. Of the many Italian restaurants in Marin, it is impossible to find one that is more authentic or that serves more perfectly prepared and presented food.

Chef Valenti is always creative and has so many wonderful things to offer. Our server, Christiano, is the master of the house with his team of Franco and Marciel. They have such a way of making us feel right at home and being served wonderful meals. This is our favorite place in Marin!!!

Every time I visit Valenti I leave loving it more than the last. The service is fantastic, the food phenomenal, and they are very accommodating to folks in wheelchairs and other mobility aids.

Christiano is a maestro! He always remembers what wine we drink, our favorite dishes, even where we went for vacation... and that after a hiatus of a few months! How does he do it? And the food is always excellent. Amazing soups. The cod main dish was perfection. And the Pannacotta? The dots of fruit extract and the cherry reduction beat the best of any Italian table. Love this restaurant!
This is a small restaurant but when my family of 6 came in without reservations for dinner we were welcomed and seated immediately. The waiter gave us the recommendations for the night and we made our selections. Listen my family likes to eat so we order quite a bit of food and was not disappointed. Their fettuccine Alfredo was absolutely delicious very light not heavy on the sauce. I guess that's why we order 4 of them. ? anyway everything we order was cooked fresh. The food came out slowly but after tasting everything it was worth the wait. If you go just grab a bottle of wine and sit back and enjoy the conversation with the company you bring. You will enjoy the ambience and food.

We enjoyed a delicious dinner for four last night, we started with the endive salad which was finely sliced into delicate threads paired with apple and goat cheese. Three people enjoyed the sea bass with potato puree and delicate fried leeks on top, a big hit! I enjoyed the pasta ricotta with Brussels sprouts and shallots, speck, it was perfectly prepared and house made. The triple chocolate cake arrived as a tower of drizzled goodness. Over all a really nice dinner. Our service was attentive, but large periods of waiting between dessert and dinner and then the check. Overall the food is excellent!

Delicious food. But limited menu if one doesn't eat meat. Service is impeccable and ambiance is warm & friendly. The outdoor patio was fantastic but is no longer used.

Christophe is the best waiter in all of Northern California. The pastas are outstanding. Last night was Truffle night with many of the dishes having that flavorful ingredient added.

Valenti and Co is still just as good as it was when they first opened. Chef Dulio in the kitchen and Cristiano out on the floor ensure an exceptional dining experience. The food is fantastic; fresh, balanced, and well-portioned. Fresh organic pasta, beautiful salads, perfect carpaccio. I had the Pappardelle with Rabbit, and my wife had Penne with house made Italian sausage and truffle. Both were perfect. As good a plate of pasta as I've had, anywhere in the U.S. or Italy. The service is outstanding; Warm, welcoming, and perfectly timed. The entire team should be commended for maintaining such consistency over the years. One of my favorite places in all of Marin. Thank you Valenti and Co.
The best Italian food in the Bay Area.
