“It's a nice place, new and comfortable. The food arrived quickly and as expected. However, the service is very poor since you need to order over the phone, and the servers only bring the food to the table; the rest you need to get yourself.“
“I honestly went into Pig In a Pickle with modest expectations since the reviews on Yelp were below a 4 (which usually isn't a good sign). But we just moved to the area recently and without going to San Rafael, this is the only BBQ close to the Mill Valley/Tiburon area. To my surprise, the ribs and brisket had a great crust on it and were full of flavor and very tender! The greens were well seasoned and the ranch beans were a surprise (I grew up in the south, so BBQ was a staple there). We always order to-go, so we've had great experiences with the BBQ. It did make me wonder why the reviews were so low after ordering from here a few times, so I read through reviews and it seems they're all focused on an issue with bringing in outside food to the establishment (and their response to this by the owner). That seems easily fixed if management approaches that topic different. But for those ordering to-go, this is really solid BBQ!“
“Pinsa Rossa is absolutely amazing! Their appetizers, salads, and, of course, the pinsas with their crunchy, flavorful crusts are all top-notch. Ken and his team have done an incredible job creating a dining experience that’s simply outstanding!Dietary restrictions: My daughter, a brand new lactating mom who can’t consume lactose products, asked for a pinsa with vegan cheese, and we couldn’t tell the difference, it was great!Parking: There’s parking available half a block away from the place.“
“Atmosphere: Solid and funBar Service: Kind, interesting, professionalsDrinks: Costly (but craft cocktails can be, so expected), my drink was cloyingly sweet, my friend's drink was more of a savory thing, and one of the rum drinks was great.UPDATE:Within 1 hour the owner of the bar contacted me about the experience with the drink I had ordered. He offered an apology, which I appreciated but was unnecessary, as I should have been better about saying something during my visit, rather than in a public review. This was customer service at its best, and that I appreciate. Upon reflection my drink may have just been a bartender error, and everybody has an off day.As the atmosphere and employees are amazing, and the vibe a solid 100, and now management reacting in a meaningful way to a petty complaint, I am boosting to 5 stars across the board.Go see for yourself what caring about your customers, and their experience is all about. Cheers!“
“Huge shoutout to Tony for the A1 hospitality. My girlfriend and I stumbled upon this place while celebrating our anniversary and we hope to be back soon. Great selection of wines and beer on tap with lots of bottled options as well. Real cozy vibe at Internos and top notch service!“
“What a location. And although on my own I received a table and wasn't tried to be parked at the bar. Really professional service. Fresh cutlery for each course, complimentary small cup of consommé, homemade Yorkshire Pudding (?). The Artichokes were divine. Shrimp and lobster Risotto good, presentation a bit boring (the"boring" bit just because I've expected more after having seen the Artichoke plate) Ristretto was hot.And yes, if you think someone is wearing a Chanel Jacket it probably is one. But no snobbism from anyone and was ok in my makeup free, tired self. Next time I feel like a treat I'll go back“
“I’ve been frequenting Richmond Republic since the week it opened and I’m not sure I’d live here if it didn’t exist. There’s a great rotating beer selection and the food is delicious. I especially like the burgers and salads, and the fries and tots are cooked to perfection. I love all the bartenders, especially the Tuesday crew. Make sure to get an Underberg before heading home!“
“Liquid Gold is a perfect name for this beer spot. How else can you describe the golden elixir's on tap? If you are a beer person, you will leave this place happy. And I would't say you have to be a certain kind of beer person (that is, ipa, sour, etc.) Different styles are fairly well represented across many excellent local craft breweries. I really like how LG offers a very small pour option for most beers, which allows me to try a lot more without both the cost and getting too toasty. But I believe they also offer growler options, which is super convenient (especially if you're close by, which alas I am not.) Also, they have a pretty big cooler with cans, so if you need more options to bring home you're very covered. Finally, they don't serve food but I have brought snacks, etc. inside (Nourish cafe is just a few doors down, hint hint.) Enjoy a sandwich in a low-key, relaxing joint, with plenty of beer to keep your thirst quenched.“
“Love this place! Pizza is delicious, its a fun casual atmosphere, and they have a great list of drinks on tap. They also have roadside service for weekend nights where it's maybe a little too busy to get a table. Fun place to catch a basketball game too!“
“Absolutely some of the best food I’ve ever had! True california/mexican food. Very healthy, affordable, fresh ingredients, incredible recipes. I would eat here every week if I lived nearby. We had the salad, sweet potato quesadilla, cauliflower tacos, agua fresca and flan. There was homemade hot sauce and homemade tortillas. Every dish was SO GOOD. I can’t wait to eat here again!“
“Good beer list with good variety, poutine was on offer and a large portion, well executed burgers. The bartender was great and perfect for opening up the communal atmosphere of the establishment. Vegetarian Diet: They have some great meat alternatives for a fraction of the cost.“
“I went for a book signing and found a lovely place with a knowledgeable and Uber friendly staff. Also found a bubbly to die for, local and the winemaker makes a sparkling white. I had a rose. I would go back to learn more about wines, which they had a few on tap as it is better for the environment as I was told by the bartender and part owner Jamie. There are simply not enough stars. Such a great place will definitely go again just cause I can. You should check it out“
“Absolutely delicious. One of the best falafels if not my favorite in such a long time. The falafel sandwich was perfectly done with just the right bite of crunch and juiciness. My husbands fried chicken sandwich was also awesome. I thought the butternut squash hummus could’ve had my flavor but it grew on me. The flavors of everything were just perfection. Saved and will totally return.“
“Small cool little spot. The sweet potatoes tacos are the reason I come here! They are legit ! Def the crowd you’d expect, but the tacos are legit, and the burrata are me two favs, but mainly those sweet potato tacos !Vegetarian options: Plenty of choices and gluten freeDietary restrictions: Vegan gluten free choices worth checking outParking: Good luck“
“Zapatos (their version of burritos) are great. Beer selection is wide and overall, the vibe is pretty nice here. However, the front staff really want to leave by closing time; meaning, they start passively asking people to leave an hour+ before closing time. Not normally a stickler for service, but I experienced being shooed out on multiple occasions so I thought it might be worth mentioning that FYI not the most hospitable.“
“Came here after work. Lots of tv. Have outdoor seatings and some tables inside but you can also seat at the bar area. They have free popcorn. They wr code for the restaurant next door but they are okay for you to bring outside food. As for the drinks, they have beers, cocktails, and wine or take a shot if you want too as well. They have a pool table and jukebox if you want to play music. The staffs are nice but they can get busy once the place started to get busy. Prices are decent/average.“
“Somehow this spot feels like a backcountry ranger station or mountain top ski hut. What I’m saying is it’s cozy, simple, understated and completely unique for the area brewery/bar scene. These guys make great beer and wine locally, and empanadas are on point. Look for the ski lift chair out front and escape.“
“This is more about the management side of things. I honestly didn’t have the BEST experience with them on my last order. BUT, they went out of there way to fix things. They are new in Oakland, just getting the operation together and I’m happy to see them there. They aren’t the cheapest but, I don’t want the Dominoes or Pizza Hutt experience (or quality) and if I pay a little extra for food, I want good service to follow. In the end, they offered great service. I’m impressed.“
“Nice bar with two pool tables.I have been here quite a few times. The bartenders are nice and friendly. They have a good variety of beer, and whiskey. There is a shuffle board, basketball hoop and few other bar games.Found a lot of friendly people who are ready to play a game of pool.“
“The 4 of us started with pikilia, a nice sampling of the mezethes, which were delicious. It would have been easier if we hadn't had to cut most items in half so that each of us could have a sample of each item. (Perhaps the plate could be sized and ordered "for 2, for 3, for 4," etc.) The beyti was beautiful and tasted wonderful. Also fabulous were the kotopoulo brochettes, souzoukaklia, and sultani. We had room to share the chocolate dome and the salted caramel gelato. We loved the food, and our server was delightful. Although the place is small, there was only one bartender and one server that Monday night; we had to request attention from time to time. The door also tended to remain open, which allowed cold air, cigarette smoke, and truck exhaust to infiltrate. We did shut the door several times, but next time we'll ask to be seated in the back. We'll definitely return - often!“
“Out with Hoboken Joe leaving our mark on a few watering holes, even had a few with Crazycat and his lil Pleasure Point Attagirl down at Goosebump Charlie's. Then Attagirl yells out she wants a big ol sausage!Well, that was our clue to Lickity Split outa there, so we headed straight to Schroeder's for a Bratwurst.And, I'll tell you what....it was Amazing! 5 Stars ☆☆☆☆☆“
“I cannot say enough good things about this place. If I wasn’t heading back home tomorrow, I would go back to this place for a third time. The food is phenomenal, the staff are all VERY kind and courteous and the small little pub transports you across the pond. The grilled chicken is to die for - whether it’s on the chicken sandwich or Cobb salad I cannot say a single bad thing about this place. An absolute gem worth stopping in to experience!“
“They’ve been open for 5 years. Their ramen is made in-house. They’re as good, if not better, than the ramen I know. I had tonkatsu ramen with a chili miso shot. Excellent. Definitely recommend. Oh, and try their roasted green tea ice cream.“
“First and foremost shut out to Ace!! Amazing bartender and server. We came for a drink and their burger wich is so good by the way. But then we had Ace he's not only attentive and respectful but also friendly and very caring. The ambiance it's smooth Relaxed great for meeting a friend or having relaxed evening.Ace was very nice and I was so sad when I saw this guy giving him such a hard time and calling him racist as a Latina and a minority I have to say he was nothing but wonderful and attentive I'm so sorry that you have to deal with this entitled person u personally had a wonderful experience would definitely coming back and highly recommend this place for a pleasant evening and quick tasting bite . Thank you Ace for making our evening so special ..“
“Upon our arrival at the restaurant, we were seated immediately without any wait. After taking our seats, a waiter presented us with water and menus. The restaurant offers the option to order food by scanning a QR code located on each table. Service throughout our visit was minimal but efficient, with our meals arriving promptly. Additionally, I appreciated the inclusion of two gender-neutral restrooms, which I found to be exceptionally clean—a detail I consider important when dining out.“
“I finally made! I was on my way to California Gold on a Friday night and something told me to walk up the street and try this place. I have heard good things about Libation from my fellow beer drinkers and pass by on the regular but Ive never taken time out to stop and check it out. Walking in the vibe was great. Fully stocked coolers with canned and bottled beer. Banging playlist! Great customer! House plants all around! People fellowshipping at the bar, joyfully Fully stocked bar (hard alcohol, wine, beer, champagne) They don't close until 12! The beer on tap is not very extensive but you can pick one from the cooler, which are cheaper, and drink it in house. I found a nice little table in the corner in front of the window with a spider plant hanging in front of it. If you know me I go ape s*** for a nice plant in an establishment. This place had many :) Long story short I felt SAFE when I walked in... and then I was greeted by my peoples (we are hard to find out here *wink) whom helped me to pick out the perfect beers. They also have cocktails. They have a cute little out door seating area and plenty of indoor seating for and intimate space. They have a separate back room with extra seating, suited with a nice recliner chair by the window and more tables. Large Tv for viewing in the main space. The tennis match had everyone feeling like we were watching the super bowl lol Glad they made it through the Covid and definitely coming back. I met some great people that night.“
“I've visited this place and I have a regret not making the right move to meet a nice lady who's approached me really nice and gentle. I wish there's a second chance. I feel sad about it...Bar and music were really good and a nice bartender“
“Fun spot to get a bite to eat at the wharf. Large portions. Coconut shrimp was good. Tacos were decent - didn't think the fried fish one was that good, but fee grilled fish I would get again. The carne asada taco was overall good, but some pieces of meat were a bit tough/chewy. Burgers looked good.Good oreo milkshake, but the vanilla was only ok.If you can get a table with a view, I would recommend it.“

“I've been wanting to come to The Stinking Rose since I was little. Garlic is one of my favorite things ever, truthfully. I'm a certified garlic girl. My dining experience here was nice! The restaurant has a nice theme to it, creating a fun vibe for you and your party. Different parts of the restaurant have different styles, I think that's super cute. My party opted to sitting outside though. Upon being seated we were helped rather promptly. 3 servers kept checking in on us throughout our dinner, and they all were so helpful! Very kind and funny, added to the energy of the establishment. Ok now for what you are looking for, the food! Bagna Calda: 5/5 Garlic roasting in a hot tub of oil, literally. At least 30 cloves of garlic was served to us, roasting in a dish of olive oil. It was delish, what could go wrong with something like this?! It's served with 2 small rolls of bread, so I'd recommend getting an additional load of acme bread or even go for some cheese bread! Burrata Prosciutto: 4/5 Huge fan of burrata so had to get this. It's served with thin slices of prosciutto, an arugula salad with balsamic and garlic, as well as 2 crostini. Tasted good but I'd expect an actual garlic flavor from this dish. The restaurant has a vampire tax, meaning the dish has no garlic. This was not labeled with that so I was disappointed to not have that garlicky kick. Also, I wish the angular was dressed better, it was basically plain with a slight olive oil flavor, not even balsamic! Yummy dish, but some expect it to be garlic forward. Count Vlad Garlic Ribeye: 3.5/5 Tasty, however it was lacking garlic again. Steak was just your ordinary ribeye and the potatoes it was served with weren't too garlicky either. I mainly tasted that sweet yukon gold flavor, nothing else. I liked their texture, had to add pepper and they tasted better. The steak was cooked great, a nice medium rare. I wish the fat was able to render better and again, wished for more garlic!! This was your ordinary steak meal you'd find anywhere, which I guess isn't a bad thing haha! Short Rib Ravioli is Garlic Relish Sauce: 4.5/5 Had a little taste of this, soooo tasty! The ravioli were nice and cooked well, and the sauce complimented it perfectly. The only knocker was I found the filling of the ravioli to be a little too salty. The richness of the sauce helped cut this but if I was at home I'd add a squeeze of lemon to cut that salt. So good nonetheless! Overall, The Stinking Rose did not disappoint. It's a fun spot to hit up on your own, for a date, or for a party! I am interested in going back to try a few other dishes on the menu. Totally stop by this iconic restaurant!“
“I'd almost forgotten how delicious Stang's is! I came here (the shopping center) to work with my dog on her manners and decided to get lunch. The aroma drew my pup to Stang's and I couldn't argue. There was a short line that moved quickly and we got our hot dog in no time. Great food and even better service. We sat where she could practice her manners and not be too tempted by the amazing aromas (or was that for me?). It was a crisp day and they were doing a great business. Eating outside in a beautiful setting with the sun shining--can't be beat. Loved the options, including vegan. Will be back.“
