“We were so grateful that the restaurant manager was able to accommodate our request to add our daughter to our reservation, despite a very full house. Unfortunately our daughter was eventually unable to join us because she got stuck in Fremont with her son's Little League team. She missed a wonderful dinner.“

“My family of 3 was just visiting for the weekend. We called ahead first night for reservation but wasn’t needed at that time (Thursday). We came back Saturday evening with no reservation hoping to get in and they seated us right away with a table with a great view. The restaurant is very nice. Everyone was super nice and prompt. Not super expensive but isn’t cheap by any means. Great portions. We loved it so much to go twice in one visit to the area. Was fancy but still comfortable enough for my toddler, even have a kids menu with crayons. Definitely recommend this place for its views, food, and hospitality.“

“Best food and drinks all weekend long. Marco was just an amazing individual. He made our anniversary even more special. My husband is a huge mezcal fan and asked if there was a drink the bartender could make and sure enough they made the most spectacular drink! We loved the food and drinks so much we stopped in after our long hike from Angel Island. I ordered the same mezcal drink as my husband did the night before. G was just an amazing bartender and helped us out with all the different types of mezcal and what characteristics they bring to the table. Marco even recognized us and said you guys are back. I have been telling everyone about your amazing restaurant and not just the quality of food but just the atmosphere and experience we had with the staff. They are all welcoming and make you feel like family.“

“I'm biased. My nephew's girlfriend is the manager here so I know the place is terrific😄 that being said, the duck fat secret herb seasoned fries are to die for. The rotating menu offered a killer Baja fish taco which was fabulous. I lived on the beach in Baja for 2 years so I know my tacos😋 The cocktails are professional. They have a great Happy Hour for food too! Good background music but not too loud for conversation.“

“I went to San Anselmo with my wife and daughter last week during the Argentina (was rooting for Messi) match. The town looked fantastic once on my way back from Olema and so went back there to have lunch. We thought the place would be nice during the summer days and on 3rd July. But we were kind of disappointed at the beginning, as stayed longer after lunch while watching the game on TV (slightly grumpy bar guy was reluctant to turn the tv sound on, but later he demanded for a pretty please and volume was on - he must have had a long day - anyway he was nice afterwards). Then we saw people were showing up after 3pm and later (the town blocks the roads for live music and kids activities, food etc) - by the time the game was ending the restaurant was full of people with locals mostly. I loved their food and dessert too. Next time will try wine (it seems that is good stuff there). Overall a great experience…“

“This restaurant is not only very nice but also is conveniently located. I recommend the salmon which is nice, affordable and tasty. I enjoyed eating the turkey and avocado club. When I was last there, it wasn’t crowded rather quite and the service was great. The decor is comfy and classy. Go there to eat good quality food such as burgers, salad, sandwiches, and others.“
