French Restaurants near San Rafael, CA

“great food, good prices.“

“Have dined at Le Chalet Basque for more than 20 years. Our recent meal with lamb chops, fresh vegetables, mashed potatoes and split pea soup served with crumbled blue cheese salad couldn't have been better. Fresh ingredients, great wine and excellent service will keep us returning again and again.“

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

“The food, the presentation, the service.“

“Just had another amazing meal at March. Olivier runs a tight ship, and his Chef knows how to put out amazing food. Best Casoulet I have had in a long time, reminded me of real in-country French fare. Deserts were fantastic, and drink menu expansive.
Merci!“

“Le Garage is the kind of place that reminds you why waterfront dining is so special. The marina views are stunning, the atmosphere is relaxed, and the food more than lives up to the setting.

We started with the smoked trout dip, which had a wonderful depth of flavor and just the right amount of smoke. Next came the Basque mussels, which were beautifully balanced and packed with flavor. And the fries? The perfect companion to soak up every last bit of the broth. As the photos show, we dug in before we remembered to take proper pictures 😂.

The service was equally impressive. Our waiter was attentive, knowledgeable, and guided us toward exactly the right choices for lunch without ever feeling pushy.

Between the fresh, delicious food and the stunning marina views, Le Garage delivered a fantastic experience. The next time we’re in Sausalito, we’ll definitely be back for more!“

“Love the place.“

“Had such a lovely meal this past Friday. I love the current menu and the options - particularly the goat cheese salad. Service was fast but not rushed at all and Mike made a birthday celebration super special without even being asked! Can’t wait to make this a regular spot.“

“Yesterday, my family and I visited Sausalito, and had a chance to eat in this restaurant. The stuff was professional, attentive, friendly, and helpful. I needed to charge my 5% dying phone, and one of the waitress helped me with that kindly. I really appreciated it! The restaurant is in a good location with an ocean view, and San Francisco on the other side. The day was sunny and beautiful, so all the atmosphere just reminded us about our past trips in Greece. We ordered 3 dishes, a hamburger(including fries), spring salad, and a crab Benedict with baked I believe so potatoes. Everything was delicious, no complaints at all. We spend a good branch time there, and left with full tummies, and good mood! Thank you 😊
1 thing that might bother some people, is that the restaurant is next to the road, and tables are on a pedestrian’s side walk, so if you hate people looking at you, while you eat, you can sit inside.“

“Five star! Highly recommend! Such a great place to hang out and the food is absolutely amazing.. expect to wait a little so your best bet is to get a croissant or one of the pastries ready to eat while you wait for your order. It is totally worth the wait! We did go on a Saturday and it was busy, not sure if it’s always that way. Crepes are delicious! Eggs Benedict are so good and the croissant sandwiches are amazing. Can’t pick my favorite.“
