Delicious food, tasty cocktails and mocktails and wonderful service. My husband and I were pleasantly surprised!

Do not be fooled by the unassuming location of the restaurant. Once you walk in, you’ll forgot you’re within a mini mall / behind a gasoline station. Everything was excellent.

After Marin Joes closed we have been searching for the steak 🥩 and pasta 🍝 solid food experience. The Boardroom is like Izzy steakhouse meets house of prime rib. Steaks perfectly cooked and great sauce. Sides all excellent loved the French onion soup and you can always judge a restaurant by their bread simply amazing and served warm. Must be only real steakhouse in Marin and great menu.

FIVE PERCENT SURCHARGE. They said this is to help pay for the kitchen staff. Hello? That's what menu prices are for? I don't care if you raise a whole dollar and that's more than 5% but getting billed more than listed priced plus tax and tip is just not cool. Can't believe there are still restaurants that take advantage of diners'good will to support the industry during pandemic times.

This is my 2nd time here and both times I order a lot of food and drinks. I'm never coming back.
