Best Waterfront Restaurants in San Rafael

We had a wonderful dinner with friends visiting from Seattle. We had a lovely table with a view of the bay and San Francisco. We had cocktails to sit and enjoy the view and talk. I had the macadamia nut crusted petrale which was delicious and my husband had fish and chips, which he said were good. Our friends enjoyed their meals and we ended the evening sharing a hot fudge sundae with coffee. It was a fun night and the service was excellent. Another great thing is the valet parking which made an everything so easy. I highly recommend The Spinnaker.

For Christmas dinner, we showed up on time and waited 45 mins for a table for the prix fixe djnner. Dinner was good. Enjoyed the pasta with crab sauce. All good but not special.

Wow! We greatly enjoyed our Christmas Eve meal. We had a late seating and is typical during the Holidays. reservations were running a little late. No problem, our host walked us to the bar and saw that we were comfortably seated and introduced us to our bartender Jim -- who was great! Our dinner was excellent, all of our courses arrived in a timely manner and were well prepared. All the staff were both friendly and professional and added to our dining experience. The dining is beautiful any time of year, but especially for the Christmas Holiday.

Another wonderful meal at Poggio. Very busy on Christmas Eve yet everything was perfect and timely. Our server, Daniela, made the evening better. Pappardelle pasta was outstanding and the featured Langhe Nebbiolo wine was delicious with it. Best restaurant in Marin.

This was an incredible experience for my wife’s birthday dinner. The staff was outstanding. The management team even found the birthday cake my wife loved. And the food was delicious Could not have been a better night. Thank you
