“New Delhi has hands down the best Indian food in Marin IMHO, great for vegetarians! Service is friendly and delightful , and the food is excellent, with each dish having a unique flavor profile. Lunch buffet often has more unusual seasonal dishes, as well as the classics. Buffet is an incredible deal with lots of dishes, Chai, salad, samosas and pakoras, pickles and dessert all included, and delicious. Did I mention that prices are really reasonable? What's not to like?“

“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 :-(“

“This place is really authentic. Food is cooked from scratch. Yuca is crispy and delicious. Beans are so tasty and pupusas well filled with yumminess“

“I was enjoy my lunch today“

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

“Wonderful food and service. Highly recommend!“

“Before today I was certain that there were no good Vietnamese restaurants in Marin. Then I tried Pho. What a find.

Very simple basic menu, but everything was perfect. Flavorful, fresh, generously sized, good service. Everything was right. We are talking San Francisco - San Jose level of excellence for Vietnamese food. I used to think you had to go to the City to find great Vietnamese food, But now we have it local here in San Rafael. The other Vietnamese restaurants around town can't even compare. This restaurant is now on my short list. Coming back. Five star.“

“Excelentes pizzas y cordial atención“

“We had our lunch in red rooster brick oven and it was the best atmosphere that’s family friendly, the food was delicious and the owners were very nice. We will be visiting again and we highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Lunch buffet is really good and at a fair price.“

“They have the best food. Anything you order will amaze your tastebuds. We get 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ service every time. Course it helps we go every weekend!!“

“Tiny place, only 4 tables. Cash only, but honestly that's how you know it's gonna be good. Very tasty, generous portions, happy to make a vegetarian version of one of the otherwise meaty dishes. Excited to eat these leftovers later!“

“This place made the tastiest veggie curry dish - I asked for the Channa Masala extra spicy and they did such a great job! Their garlic naan is very good too. I am not an expert or Indian food aficionado. However, I love the taste of their food and the girl I spoke with over the phone was very sweet!“

“From the moment I walked in, I knew this place was special. The aroma of simmering broth instantly pulled me in, and every bite lived up to the promise. The pho was perfection — rich, fragrant, and full of depth, with tender slices of beef and perfectly cooked noodles. You can taste the care and tradition in every spoonful.

Whether you’re a pho fanatic or trying it for the first time, this is the place to go. I’ll definitely be coming back again and again!“

“Hi I am delighted to have Royal Thai as a friend for Take dinners needs during these shelter times. Support your local restaurant. San Rafael , you got my buisness. Plus your Thai food is darn good“

“I absolutely LOVE this restaurant. Their ramen keeps me coming back for more. They have the best ramen in Marin county. Whenever I get the chance to eat here I will and I hope to more in the future. Their staff is so kind and make amazing food.“

“Great services, friendly“

“Super cute atmosphere and decorations. I got the chicken katsu, would 100% recommend. Tried the chef’s choice sashimi and all the fish was great quality and delicious. The service was fast and reliable. A nice late night spot and worth stopping by!“

“How nice to finally have an excellent Chinese restaurant in San Rafael. Nicely decorated, friendly and efficient service and delicious cuisine! Give them a try, you won’t be disappointed.“

“The best sandwiches around!! I tried #2 & 5. Like them cuz they are the least bready, most crunchy sandwiches. The meat is flavorful and the crispy crunchy veggies really add a lot of texture and flavor. This is not about atmosphere, it’s all about flavor & texture.“

“We had the most delicious pastas and wine! The service was fantastic as well. We highly recommend TKT for your next night out!! Even our toddler was impressed!“

“The variety of options was good. I appreciate the mostly vegetarian/ some vegan choices available and even had some chicken irons for my BF.
Service was a little funky as the guy at the country wasn't friendly and seemed very cranky.
I would go back because it's hard to find vegan options elsewhere, but only if I had no other choices.“

“Love take out. The best minestrone and garlic bread. Yummy. Try it.“

“Even after a 4 year hiatus (work relocation) Tajikistan San greeted me at the door tonight with "So good to see you, two chicken bento, extra dressing!". Arigatou's is world class.“

“Great Food!!! Great Service!“

“The turkey and cheese burger is the best 🍔 with the curlier fries is the best of the best 👍🏼🤗.“

“Great beer and great food and service.“

“Best Mexican food I've had in a long time!“

“The pizza, the calamari, the mozzarella sticks, the margaritas, what an exceptional find. The service was top notch and the pizza so good i ate the crusts, it’s that type, i never eat the crusts. We left feeling well taken care of. Sean, the manager, was making us feel welcome in every possible way. I’ve heard the clam chowder and salads are amazing as well, we will be back!! Prime rib?! French dip!?! Yes please!!!!“

“Food is amazing, authentic and just all around a great deal! This is the first place I've found here in Cali that puts hominy in their menudo like my hometown does! Their tamales are huge and their burritos STUFFED! highly recommend! Just heads up, when they ask if you want salsa, they mean Pico de Gallo. They call their actual salsa hot sauce!“

“delicious rustic breads, sweet and savory pastries, and fun chatting with folks in line (perfect weather didn't hurt either!)“

“I picked up a sandwich to go. When I got home, I noticed the lunch was a chicken salad. I called the Cafe to let them know, Amy, the kitchen supervisor, was most gracious: she told me the next time I come in, the meals on them. To that I say cheers!“

“Great service, great food and outside seating to bring your pups!“

“I have been twice so far and both time the food was - delicious! Everything we ordered was good especially the chicken satay, fresh rolls, pad Thai, green curry and mango sticky rice. The people who work there went above and beyond. We called about coming in close to closing with the family, they insisted we come in and that they were genuinely happy to have us. We felt so welcome both times. Will keep coming back!“

“Loved everything there, especially my daughter. Will always come back!“

“Be careful what you order, the croissants are immense. We ordered breakfast including one signature croissant and couldn't eat half of what we got. Everything was delicious, the coffee was hot and strong, the staff were attentive and courteous. We were on vacation, however, rather than try someplace new we came back here a second time - we don't often do that!“

“Please visit the Kabobi Persian cuisine truck at the Alameda county fair which is open until July 12th, 2026. Ceyavesh, Donya, Naz and the whole crew offer delicious and fantastic Persian food. I've been attending the Alameda County Fair for over 60 years and this is the very first time the Alameda County Fair has featured Persian cuisine, and it is fantastic! Their burgers, rice plates and sandwiches are excellent. The burger has a touch of mint leaves, dill spices, and it is cooked perfectly. Their rice plate comes withl basmati saffron rice, mint leaves, and a roasted tomato. Please don't miss out on this fantastic food and the good people there at the.Kabobi truck. I hope they serve at the Alameda County Fair years to come..

“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.“

“This place was excellent! A little hole in the wall right off of the 101. Me and my husband were driving home late from SF and wanted to grab a bite to eat on the way home. This place is open until 130 in the morning, so makes a great late night option. The crust is made of sourdough and is the perfect amount of crispy and chewy. The sauce was tangy and rich and the toppings tasted fresh. Overall 10/10. The atmosphere wasn't anything to write home about but the food and the guy making the pizzas were excellent and made the hole in the wall vibe. Will go again the next time I'm driving out of the city late at night.“

“Was here on Christmas Eve, and the food, service, and ambience couldn’t have been better. Had clay pot dishes, both beef and tofu, assorted nigiri, Dragon roll - all wonderfully fresh, edamame, a shrimp tempura roll, and sake. We we all delighted. Thanks for adding to a beautiful Christmas Eve!“

“This is my new go to place when I am in the San Rafael area. #1 Fantastic food #2 plenty of free parking #3 Beautiful outdoor dining experience #4 Fantastic staff that aim to please #5 Amazing, to die for, mammas hand made bread pudding desert. I will return again many many times.“

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

“Everything it’s great about this restaurant. The food it’s amazing. Portions are big. Totally recommend. Fast. Friendly. Sometimes you have to wait for a table, because it’s so crowded. But it’s worth it. I complain about the coffee every restaurant I go. Even fancy one. But their coffee it’s super good ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️“

“Great Thai food !!!! Customer service was also great.“
