    Came in with a hankering for a burger. Got the Fancy Pants and added bacon and a fried egg. Was delicious and killed the craving. I will say it was a bit pricey but was delicious nonetheless.

    We had the best dinner we’ve had in Mill Valley in years. There was a prix fix menu for Valentine’s Day and it was cohesive, perfectly executed and delicious. The dinner consisted of a salmon blini, followed by a mushroom bisque & little gem salad with Dungeness crab, avocado and pistachio. The main courses were halibut with sunchokes or a filet mignon with duchess potatoes and wine sauce. The desserts were profiteroles in a chocolate sauce or an almond cake with raspberry coulis. Sublime! Lastly, the service was excellent: our server was efficient, attentive and humorous. It was the perfect evening!
