    Halibut
    Meg T.

    In my experience Corner Bar was not successful as a restaurant, but could be seen as successful as a bar. Logistics: The space opens at 4pm - but for some reason did not serve food until 5pm which isn't listed on the menu or their hours, but is listed in one small place on their landing page. They have two sections of patio seating - four tables for parties of 2+, and four tables for 1-2 people. The tables for the larger parties are normal sized tables, but the 1-2 person tables are very small and can fit at most two appetizers. We would have preferred sitting at the larger tables as they were in the sun because even though the restaurant opens at 4pm, there are no built in heaters for their patio. Their site also states the outside tables are first come first serve (no outside reservations) which according to a note a server handed us, is incorrect. Food: In my experience, although the quality of the ingredients was very high, every single dish we had was either poorly designed or poorly executed. The brussels sprouts were an unbalanced dish. Very heavy on the vinegar, they were covered in a flavorless cheese with spicy peppers interspaced throughout. For five or six bites it would give vinegar, then when you got a pepper it would give nothing but fire. The breading on the calamari was thick and almost flavorless, however the sauce it came with was well done and saved the dish, so personally I felt it was the most successful of everything we ordered, Additionally, I personally enjoyed the duck although the honey did not. Like other reviewers have stated, there was very little meat on the wings and overall it would have made a better impression as a duck egg roll. For my entree I had the halibut. My experience with the dish really depresses me because the fish was so perfectly cooked, and so perfectly seasoned. It was absolutely mouth-watering and they stuck it on top of this horrible vegan goulash. Under the perfectly cooked fish was a mix of whole chickpeas (without skin removed), sliced green beans and peas, drowned in a salsa soup. If they had just plated the halibut and done a pea puree it would have been chefs kiss, but as it was it was so unbalanced - there aren't even words. At the end of the day, there just seems to be an issue in how Corner Bar's menu was designed and the logistics of the space so bringing in a new chef to redesign and installing heaters above the tables would likely go a long way.

    This place is great example of what a bar / restaurant should strive to be. Beginning with their friendly staff and management whom have gone out of their way to please speaks for itself. They serve quality drinks and great bites to eat as well. Check out their cool leather bound menu which offers great bottles of wine also. Perfect spot for a date up front with top tier views of downtown and just clean comfortable front of the house seating.

    Corner Bar is a must visit when in Marin County/Mill Valley. Reservations are strongly suggested on the weekends. The food is not like anything you'll find in Mill Valley, the service is superior, the ambiance is top notch. Bartenders are THE BEST, service staff are AHMAZING! I highly recommend checking it out on a Friday night. They also have two TVs at the bar if you want to catch sports. They have the most eclectic burger I've ever had, so fantastic and a must try!!!!

    We absolutely loved corner bar and will be coming back!! The service was fabulous and the quality of everything was top notch. We ordered the $44 prefix menu which was bomb and then some drinks (ultima palabra, up in smoke)!! The wagyu carpaccio, mezze plate, calamari were really good as well. We will absolutely be back. Good vibes.

    First time in Mill Valley and tried corner bar. Stayed outside was offered a blanket. This plate is good for two. The non alcoholic drink I ordered is really refreshing. It's nice treat if you just want to enjoy the night sprinkly weather.

    Duck wings l'orange - exceptional!!

    Came here on a busy Saturday night without reservations. We did put our name down for a table initially & then headed to the bar for a drink. Before we finished those drinks, we found a nice spot to sit with loads of space for us to play our board game. We did ask the bartender first if we could play as we weren't sure if this place was vibey like that and he 100% approved. Loved that for us. To eat, we ordered the chips and dips (yum), Wagyu beef carpaccio (phenomenal!) and the duck wings l'orange (exceptional!). Service was a bit slow at first but once we got settled down, it was more attentive. Only one bartender per bar at such a busy spot but it worked. Loved the vibes but especially loved the fact they were down with us playing. Also, I won

    Overall B: Good food, cocktails, a bit poor service (2 min 2 bites!) not understanding that we share everything. Weekday supper outside, of stone fruit salad, lamb gyros, deviled eggs, gin & mexcal drinks. Recommend if you're in the neighborhood.

    Corner Bar is fantastic! I've had amazing speciality cocktails here, classic cocktails, great beer and a killer martini. All the bartenders and servers are friendly and fun to hangout with. I'm obsessed with the duck wings as well - SO GOOD! The burger is amazing too. Such a great addition to our county!

The inside vibe was great, with tons of people drinking/eating and having a good time. When we got seated, we ended up ordering just a few oysters and a 3pc fish and chips. The oysters were pretty good and fresh, with a great vinaigrette on the side to pair with them. The fish and chips, however, were the obvious stars of the show. The fish were nice and golden, with a very crisp texture, and more importantly large and generous. The fries were nicely seasoned and plentiful. The fish was really tasty (you can choose the type of fish depending on what they have on hand, and some cost extra between $2-$10. We chose the standard option for the day: Rockfish), easily one of the better fish and chips I have had - just an incredibly simple, but well executed dish. While the tartar sauce was a good pairing, the real standout pairing was Hook Fish's own carrot habanero hot sauce with the tartar sauce and the oyster vinaigrette. I have never had something like a carrot based hot sauce, but it really works by contrasting the spiciness of the habanero with a slightly sweet carrot undertone. Strange, but it gave the classic fish and chips a unique twist that sets it apart from the competition. While eating we saw tons of different dishes fly out the kitchen as well, such as poke burritos, large portions of chips and salsa/guacamole, and fish tacos.
