To date, I have found Terrapin Crossroads to be the best live music venue in Marin. Adding to that, it also has fabulous food in the restaurant area, with great service.The restaurant has both upstairs and downstairs dining. Go upstairs if you prefer just to eat and donât want to see the live bands, or alternately, sit downstairs and enjoy the food and see the musicians in action. If you donât want food, just hang out in the bar area, which serves a multitude of cocktails, and watch the live bands. If you want a truely great live, yet fairly intimate, music experience, you can get tickets for the âspecialâ artists and bands that perform at Terrapin. Google their site to check upcoming gigs. We recently saw the legendary Colin Hay (ex lead singer and song writer for the Aussie band Men At Work.....famous for âI live in land Down Under...â, amongst many others. I am an Aussie ex-pat living in Marin County. Seeing Colin Hay and his totally awesome and talented band in such an intimate venue, was definitely very special. Brunch, minus the music, is also a fab option. Indoor or outdoor dining. Plenty of parking onsite, with complimentary (free) valet parking service. What more could you ask for? Enjoy

Hip place by the water in Sausalito. Very good pizza and drinks at this place and the service was excellent. Decent menu selections and a very nice atmosphere overall. This place is close to the shopping street and ferry terminal. Varied seating options, from bar style tables, to regular tables and also an interesting comunal arrangement around some sort of fire pit in the middle. seems like a pet friendly place as we saw a couple of dogs inside. Recommended if you are in Sausalito. Very nice town by the way

The food was probably better than the beer, but neither were bad. The place has a TGI Fridayâs vibe, take that however you like.

4. Perry's on Magnolia

Reviewed By Jonathan T
Marin county residents associate decades of fond memories with 234 Magnolia Avenue in Larkspur because for years it was the premier Marin eatery and brainchild of chef Bradley Ogden, who left San Francisco's tony Campton Place in 1989 where he was Chef de Cuisine, to open the Lark Creek Inn. There, under a towering redwood canopy and next to a quintessential babbling brook he delighted generations of Marin diners with his distinctive and exquisitely prepared American cuisine featuring signature dishes like his braised short ribs of beef, Bradley's Caesar salad and other seasonal favorites. In 1990 Gayot named the Lark Creek Inn as one of the top 40 restaurants in the United States. In 2009 Ogden closed the revered Marin eatery to pursue stardom in other locations. Enter Perry Butler, who had a vision to bring the style of New York's East Side bar and grills to San Francisco in 1969 and had since launched successful locations on Union Street, SF Embarcadero, and now 234 Magnolia Avenue. Although not equal in culinary pedigree to his superstar predecessor, Perry's On Magnolia addresses an important niche in the North Bay dining scene with its bustling bar scene, informal and friendly service, and congenial menu. Happy hour wines by the glass paired with a shareable plate of delicious fried calamari are the perfect ending to a busy weekday at work and for hearty appetites the dinner menu has something for everyone. Two can dine for under $80 including cocktails and a shared dessert. The Lark Creek Inn was a hard act to follow but one day Perry's will be too.

Melancholic, Dilapidated, Unclean, and Horrifically Over Priced Hotel/InnThe wear and tear,filth,tattered rugs,the bathroom floor dirty, baseboards,heater and door were covered with filth. It was so dusty we were sneezing and coughing. There is no Air Conditioning but with windows open and box fan we were able to tolerate the night. We paid over 400 dollars for the night and could have stayed at many of the great 4-5 star hotels in San Francisco for less. It was so bad that even my husband slept in his clothes on top of the duvet. We got up at 5 am and just left. This Inn has location which is great for Muir Woods and hiking. It has the views which are so beautiful. It could be so special in this great location but unfortunately its not. Paint, Flooring, Soap and a little scrubbing could do so much for it. Neglect and lack of care by employees or owners is evident. Parking is a problem only 6 spots for the restaurant and registers guest. I love hiking, SFO, and this area so much I really wanted this place to be good so I could return for another stay when hiking in Muir. There are other Hotels and Inns nearby that are nice with a much lower price point. Believe the reviews, I didn't and it was a mistake.

The folks who own/run the Sweetwater know how to please a communitity. They host the unknown talented musicians, the upmand coming as well as the old time famous musicians of great honor. The hall itself has a cool stage, cocktail tables with chairs, side booth style seats and lots of standing room at the bar and in the hall. No matter where you end up it's a small hall so the acoustics will be awesome. If your traveling to Mill Valley get on the website of the Sweetwater and bookmyour trip around the available tickets to a show of interest. It's well worth it if you are a musician and know the powerful history of the Sweetwater Cafe who gave a venue to many musicians who are rock stars today.

The beer was memorable. Years ago I had a very tasty rye IPA. That beer was no longer on the menu but the âAnimalâ was almost as good. Hoppy but well balanced with malt. Dinner ranged from adequate to delicious. High points were the roast carrots and the pasta with pork belly. The burger was OK but not exceptional. Service was attentive and helpful.
