Had brunch ...awesome! Mescal Bloody Mary , fried chicken & waffles , chicories salad ! We split the food and had two rounds drinks-105 bucks plus tip but a worthy splurge! Locally sourced food ! Bomb!

A heaping bowl of PEI mussels ($15) is crowned with a haystack of thick fries a creamy aioli so infused with garlic it stings the back of the throat. It's a magical blend that wakes up the palate. Read more

Order one of everything. But if you don't have such an appetite, you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Aesthetically pleasing, welcoming atmosphere.

You really can't go wrong here. I've never had such quality family style food. Everything was delicious. Try the fried chicken , ceviche , & any of their unique cocktails .

Huge portions . You can easily share an entree w some starters and be really full. Great food and ambience. Cozy and warm vibe. Worth a trip to this adorable town .

Everything is so so good! Portions are big enough for two, only order 1 course per two people.

Ribeye stake and chicken wings were prepared perfectly. Also best cocktails in the Bay Area.

In the 1970s and 1980s, this was a cool counterculture spot, like Bolinas. Now it's yuppies, strollers and botiques. Still, it has charm. And the Warehouse. - Be Bop
