“Purr-fect Tacos at Out the Door

We had a claw-some taco feast at Out the Door! Tried the fish taco, mushroom taco, and schnitzel taco—each one was paws-itively delicious and packed with fur-midable flavor. The ingredients were meow-velously fresh, and every bite was bursting with a paw-some blend of textures and spices.

The fish taco was light and zesty (a real catch!), the mushroom taco had a savory richness that was un-fur-gettable, and the schnitzel taco was a meow-sterpiece with a fun twist that totally worked. It’s clear the team here knows how to whip up purr-fectly unique and memorable dishes. Highly recommend for anyone craving bold, fresh flavors!“

“Food is good. Staff are friendly!“

“Sourdough bread bowl was excellent! Fish taco were gluten & dairy free... loaded with fish & fresh toppings! Very hearty servings!“

“Perfect for honeymooning 🌝🌚“

“The oysters were delicious, I loved them“

“Super fresh and delicious Seafood right on the water. Would love if they had specials on the oysters every now and then (they are $4 a pop and right next to the source so not sure why the price). But then again they can charge that much because they are delicious and there’s always a line of people ready to pay. Always a fun spot to stop at with friends but expect to to pay $50+ a person“

“Got 50 kumamotos but there were definitely closer to 65 or 70 in the bag. So fresh, creamy and delicious! Maybe 1/3 of them actually made it to the grill, they were too good ice cold and raw. Cut the meat away from the shell and let them sizzle on the grill with a dollop of compound butter- butter, garlic, shallots, white pepper and lemon with a tiny squirt of hot sauce🥰🥰🥰🥰“

“We love Rockers, great food and great service“

“I had my intimate wedding dinner catered onsite at Ginochio's on 10/10. From the early planning conversations with Patty, to her family's kindness and accommodation on what turned out to be a rainy day (Patty and Alicia put out prayers to the rain gods that it would stop for us!), to the INCREDIBLE food AND service, we fell in love with the Ginochio family. Patty and her family were so gracious with our party, as they are with the local community (if you know, you know!). Everyone in our party RAVED about the food and the service. We had a wonderful experience here and will definitely be back during future Bodega trips to experience the regular menu. Thank you again!!“

“Outstanding fish and chips. The cole slaw had a funny under taste to it, couldn't finish it. We had bread pudding for dessert (my favorite) however they put a pecan, sauce over it which was way to sweet , unfortunately I couldn't eat it. The atmosphere and service was good.“

“We were hoping to try the Coastal Kitchen Dillon's Beach before leaving our glamping trip, Oct. '25, at Lawson's Landing. It was surprisingly Sooooo GOOD! The place is tucked away and only open 4 days a week. Ray had the Best Burger & Fries. I had the Fish Tacos! Outstanding. The clam chowder was so good, we picked up 2 orders to go. Service was excellent, setting Five Stars, cafe was clean! We will definitely make it a top priority when we return next year.

P.S.Congratulations Coastal Kitchen on making the Saturday CBS Nightly News tonight, where a Marin County Hamburger Club voted you one of the Best Burger & Fries! Well deserved!- Nov 8, '25 Request? Offer more days of being open please???“

“The Manila clams and halibut were prepared to perfection. The service was first rate: attentive without being intrusive; well informed about both the food and wine selections; very amiable in a welcoming way. We highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be back.“

“My husband and I had dinner here last night, and it was easily the best meal of our trip.

We were able to make a reservation the same day. They were running a little behind when we arrived, but it was no issue for us and absolutely worth the wait. The host walked us over to the lounge bar, where we enjoyed drinks while waiting for our table. I ordered the Spiced Merchant, which was excellent — I would definitely recommend it if you enjoy rum.

The food is priced on the higher end, but the quality, flavor, and portion sizes make it well worth it. My husband started with the Gem Caesar salad, and I had the beet carpaccio, which was incredible (and a must if you love beets). We also added a bread basket, which was a great addition.

For our mains, my husband ordered the pork chop with mushroom bread pudding. He really enjoyed it, and the bite I tried was delicious. I ordered the ribeye. It doesn’t come with a traditional side, but we shared the sautéed mushrooms, which paired perfectly. My steak was cooked exactly right, and the chimichurri was outstanding.

We finished with the crème brûlée special for dessert, which was fabulous and a perfect ending to the meal.

Overall, the service was great and the food was even better. It’s definitely a splurge, but worth every penny. If you’re in the area, I highly recommend making a reservation and dining here.

The only downside is parking if you’re not staying at the hotel (we weren’t). I suggest arriving a little early to allow time to find a spot.“
