Food is just ok. For the prices I was expecting more. Not crowded at all but we were restricted in our seating choice. The pretense and the prices of this place do not match food quality. Many options of better quality in Marin. read more

My go to for dinner, and sometimes lunch and always excellent: The service, the staff, the environment, the food, the cocktails. Stopped in late tonight after work. For me, a nice eggplant pizza and the chicken dinner for my wife which is a house favorite since they first opened. My favorite cocktail, the ADMIRAL and a beautiful, tasty nonalcoholic cocktail for my wife. Simply superb! The remodeled outdoor patio is really something to behold- it's a beautiful cozy setting, especially on a warm evening. For several years now this has been just about my favorite spot to go to in the bay area and certainly my number one Marin spot! Sometimes just to sit at the bar and have a nice exquisite craft cocktail is a complete joy. Or, if you only want a pizza, this is the best place to do it as the wood-fired pizzas are second to none and who doesn't want some pizza and good beer? With a price that's not out of line in comparison to the region. Check out the private dining area which can be shut off and secluded which is great for meetings, birthdays, bar mitzvahs, or graduation events. Oh, and let's not forget the succulent desserts. Be sure to take a stroll before or after dinner, and check out the captivating retailers at this charming shopping area known as the Marin Country Mart. There are even freestanding retailers in the various parking areas. Most assuredly, a good place to spend an afternoon or evening. ***Please note that I'm in two areas frequently southern California and Northern California. So I post my favorites in both spots. read more

The angry crab spaghetti is a gelatinous, tasteless mess Shouldn't be on any menu Had this dish around the world & was not great Can't taste the crab and it's covered with a greasy sauce If you want something to clog your arteries, no taste. This is a good choice. read more

The hostess was indifferent at best. Seemed like we were a bother to seat. No smile or welcoming gesture The food is average. The pizza toppings were very good. The crust was not cooked properly and was soggy. And what's up with cutting the pizza with a dull pair of scissors The quality at this restaurant has gone way down read more

I hate giving bad reviews unless two variables exist: Prices are on the high side Place has plenty business to withstand a not great review. The service was great. The waiter was aware and the bussers were present. The pizza was bad. It was a limp rag. They have a wood burning oven and it was well into the dinner hour so it's on the pizzaolo to control the heat and get the dough crackling. Yes we should have told the waiter but when you're starving you don't want to wait anymore. I just hope they take heed because the Pizza is at the very top of the menu so apparently it's important. read more

We were greeted with a big smile by the hostess for our Sat lunch reservation and seated in the spacious dining room with comfy seating, which I appreciated with some hip pain I have. Selvin provided us with friendly service and answered my questions about paying with the Inkind app, as an Inkind offer was my primary reason for coming in. We got the frittata and the corn Cacio e pepe, both dishes were tasty. We like our food spicy so asked for hot sauce, which appeared to be housemade and pleasantly enhanced the flavor of our entrees. read more

3.5 stars. Nice place conveniently located at Larkspur Landing. Fresh healthy ingredients and decent service. They have a full bar, indoor and patio seating, and a good sized pizza oven. I had the poached chicken salad which has very tender & lean pieces of chicken breast that I enjoyed. The salad part was hearts of Romaine lettuce cut into quarters with some walnuts, sliced radishes and dates and very little dressing on the side. Aside from the chicken being tender and lean, the salad was overall bland and disappointing. My dining companion did better with an eggplant & chickpea dish which she enjoyed and I wish I had ordered. We had water with our meal. Prices are on the expensive side. I would try something else other than the salad if I came back here and try to order more wisely. read more

I am a regular at Farmshop and I live in the neighborhood. So, it's been great to have a late dinner at Farmshop after a long day. But, they recently changed my 2 favorite dishes (and other menu items) - the hamachi appetizer and a farm style salad. The hamachi is now swimming in oil and served on soggy tostadas. The oil, spices, and avocado (like avocado paste) totally over takes the taste of the yummy fish. I used to be fresh, lightly drizzled, and the hamachi is celebrated. Also, The salad is now really sloppy with way too much dressing - and the dressing is boring. when I mentioned I thought it was better before, the bartender said "other people like it". Rude answer - he could have asked why, what was different?. Ambiance and location are nice. My paper plane drink was good. read more

A field trip taking the Larkspur Ferry and lunch at the Farmshop. A friend of mine really likes it so we thought we'd give it a try. Overall it was a nice experience. We shared the Poached Chicken Salad and Shawarma spiced swordfish skewers. The winner was the swordfish -- really good. I wasn't too excited about the sides that that came with it. I'm not a big cucumber fan and didn't like the big chunks of it in the yogurt . And I like tabbouleh better with bulgar rather than quinoa but that's my taste. The salad was quarters of uncut baby romaine with dressing on the side. We saw a lot of it going by so people must like it but I like my salad cut up and tossed. The very fresh walnuts and sweets dates served with it were great. Our waiter ( Victor) was great. We arrived when they opened and easily got a seat but it really got busy so go early or reserve. It is a really nice space, very large with a screened outdoor area and a pretty dining room. Pizza oven, wood fired kitchen area and long bar. I'd try it again -- maybe a pizza and see if I could get a tossed salad. read more

Farmshop - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Larkspur, California

Unfortunately, I am unable to review Farmshop because I didn't eat or drink anything. I visited alone on a Saturday around 3 p.m. I went to the host and asked if I needed to see him to be seated in the bar, he said, "seating in the bar is first come, first served." I sat in the bar at a table, two tables down from 2 women who were finishing their meal. I figured whomever was serving them would also serve me. The restaurant wasn't packed but it was busy. The 2 women who were finishing their meal had to wave someone down for a to-go box. So maybe there wasn't a server assigned to our area. I did make eye contact with a bartender several times but he did not come to my table. I waited 20 minutes at the table and then left. read more

I've always thought of Farmshop as a reliably great spot -- and after our most recent visit, I'm glad to say it still hits. Their wood-fired pizzas (especially if cooked crispy style) remain a highlight. The pepperoni version is my go-to: nicely charred crust, good balance of sauce and cheese, and enough crunch that every bite feels satisfying. Their Avocado hummus served with crudités (and lavash) also stands out -- it's something special, rich and creamy yet fresh, a perfect starter or light share if you're not overly hungry. Though the staff this time was "adequate" -- friendly enough but not especially memorable -- the food itself made the meal worthwhile. The kitchen still knows what it's doing, and there's a clear consistency to quality that keeps pulling me back, even after a period of visiting less often. If you're in Larkspur or Marin, it's a reliable pick for a casual meal that always delivers. read more

Farmshop - The best - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Larkspur, California

I never been here before, but I really love this place. I am a big fan of everything they serve and the overall vibe of this place. As crazy as it sounds, I came here for some amazing beer and winter squash soup. I loved how this was a near total farm to table experience. The ingredients were fresh and flavorful, everything I wanted from my California experience. My friends had Meyer Lemon Pizza (to be cut with scissors), and it was a delectable balance of amazing flavor! I also appreciate that they had really thoughtful service, making a really busy lunch time a pleasant experience. The only one minor downer was yes, this is definitely on the slightly more expensive side, even for the bay area. Nothing crazy out of expectations. read more

The food is still great but the people working there are less attentive than ever. From Check in and server etc. that part is frustrating to look acrosss the room of workers and no one is looking to see if someone needs something. Took a while. Side note- we brought our daughter here for a momentous occasion and had it in the notes at booking. They not only didn't give us an indoor table it was just missed. I asked at the end if they had Birthday note in their reservation- she said NO. So something is wrong with Reservation app and when you come in and what they see. Definitely call in if an important milestone. *Missing our daughters' 21st birthday celebration meal is quite the faux pas at "their favorite restaurant"! (They used to ask are we celebrating something special but also booking notes also helped them-no so anymore) Ambiance is chill as usual and pleasant - for not getting our requested seat "inside" -which was empty, we were "inside at the outside" which the seating guy thought fit the bill for not having a seat inside. I say it is just kinda how the times are- a disconnection- even at your favorite eatery. read more

Update: I called the restaurant the following day to try to get a refund. A different manager than the one that was working that night picked up. She told me that she had read my review and asked what it is I would like to discuss, as if we were about to enter into negotiation, rather than simply admitting fault and reimbursing me for their mistake as any other high-end and low-end restaurant would do in this situation. The manager told me that I should have spoken up last night and have asked for the steak to be reheated. Lol! She then said that it was me who should've caught the mistake on the bill, and that I shouldn't have posted my review. She also said that I should've called the restaurant when I noticed the bill which would've be impossible because I noticed it at midnight. She put the blame on me when I did nothing wrong in this scenario. She tried to make me feel bad about posting the review and made me feel as if it was I was the one that mishandled the entire situation, rather than accepting full responsibility. Eventually, I stood up for myself during the phone call and put the blame back on the restaurant, at which point she realized that maybe she and the restaurant staff that night did do something wrong. Spoiler alert! When that revelation crossed her mind, she offered to partially reimburse me for the cheaper steak that I originally ordered. The steak that they brought out afterwards... I still had to pay for it. Everything so far is clearly being handled correctly. I said that I would like everything reimbursed from that meal and after ten minutes of talking on the phone, she offered to reimburse me for the more expensive steak and the tip from that night, which should have been done in the first place without any of this. As if the situation couldn't get any juicier, she informed me that the kitchen staff have ongoing issues with temperature control on the steaks. Since they want to be petty, I'll be petty too. I saw many servers bagging the crudities that they bring out with their avocado hummus with their bare hands. The avocado hummus station is in the middle of the entire restaurant mind you. This is a bad look for the only dish that seems to be keeping this place afloat. read more

The food is stellar and so is the service. Always reliable for a great meal. I prefer to sit at the bar but the tables are nice too.

We had a very disappointing and uncomfortable experience at Farmshop Marin today. Our family was seated before the two tables next to us, yet both of those tables were greeted, had their orders taken, and were served before anyone came to take our order. We waited at least 10 minutes while watching guests who arrived after us receive service first. What made the experience even more concerning was that this did not feel like a single isolated oversight. During our meal, the server went around refilling water for the surrounding tables but skipped our table. We had to experience being overlooked more than once. Both neighboring tables were white couples, while we are an Asian family. I cannot know the staff's intent, but the repeated difference in how our table was treated was very noticeable and made us feel unwelcome and concerned that we were being treated differently. When I brought the issue to the manager on duty, he simply described it as an "oversight." I explained that this explanation did not adequately address what had happened, especially because the unequal service occurred more than once. Unfortunately, I found his response dismissive and his attitude unprofessional. I understand that restaurants can be busy and mistakes happen. However, being repeatedly overlooked while surrounding tables received normal service, followed by a dismissive response from management, made this a very unpleasant experience for our family. I hope Farmshop management takes this seriously and reviews what happened, including whether all guests are receiving consistent and equitable service. read more

Service is efficient although somewhat somber. Ambiance is great we sat in front by the front door so the noise wasn't a problem as it can be sitting inside The food was good - I didn't like either pizza - the lemon I feel overpowers the pizza and the pepperoni I'm just not fond of little cups of oil - but the avocado hummus and the fritters never disappoint. The potatoes were good. read more

Everything- food, atmosphere, service was WONDERFUL!! Met SF friend for shopping & lunch. We shared 3 dishes- poached chicken salad, corn pasta and roasted fish schwarma kabobs and loved it all. Plus Arnold Palmers (delish!) and mocha to top off. Highly recommend- all very fresh and brilliantly seasoned. Plus the staff could not be friendlier- really felt taken care of read more

Everything we ate was delicious. We shared multiple items for lunch because so many of the offerings sounded so good. We had the Caramelized Meyer Lemon Pizza, Avocado Hummus, Crispy Brussel Sprouts, Zarate Farms Winter Chicories, Brioche French Toast, and Vanilla Meringue Creamsicle. Everything was very good, but I especially enjoyed the Caramelized Meyer Lemon Pizza and the Vanilla Meringue Creamsicle. If you like pineapple on your pizza, you'll like the slightly less sweet Meyer Lemon Pizza. The flavor and multiple textures of the Meringue Creamsicle was incredible. Although it was a busy Saturday lunch time, service was prompt and welcoming at this casual eatery. The noise level was medium-high but nothing really that impacted conversations. read more

Remarkably poor attitude and service, mediocre and overpriced food. They deserve to go out of business soon.

Visited this place for brunch with friends. We didn't make any reservations and were able to get seats, but I recommend making a reservation because the restaurant got very busy later on. So, the food was delicious; everything we tried was amazing. Service was slow, but it was compensated for by the attentive service and good atmosphere, along with the wonderful food. read more

It had been awhile since we ate at Farmshop. (Covid keeping me from my usual commute which made it convenient) We decided to give the place a try when shopping locally, and we're really glad we did. Seems like they really stepped up their brunch game. The pizzas were as good as they always were, but it seemed like there were more options now, like the delicious mushroom frittata we tried. The service and ambiance haven't changed at all, and that's a good thing. We won't wait quite so long before coming back. read more

Recently became a big fan of this place... If you haven't tried their Meyer lemon pizza, you need to run over and order one quickly. Pairs nicely with their spicy margarita, AKA Brava. Be ready for the pizza to arrive within seconds of ordering... It's amazing how quickly it comes out. Also, I always sit at the bar...feel more social. read more

Farmshop has reliably good cocktails, entrees and appetizers in a fun, upscale environment. The service is wonderful too. The price point does feel high in my opinion and I think this tends to skew the clientele to be an older crowd. Maybe with some happy hour or dinner specials more of the young Marin folks would frequent the restaurant? Anyhow- it is a nice spot with good food that should not disappoint! read more

I was just ordering a delicious pizza and salad to share with my partner and this female guest was be so unbelievably rude to Rachel who works there.

Please go in and ask for her. She's a sweetheart.! read more

I thought this Farmshop is identical to the one I've visited in Santa Monica but it wasn't. During weekends, this place is packed. I would definitely recommend making reservations for any size party if you want to get seated. We came here to celebrate our Mom's 70th birthday and it was overall a nice experience. We order a bottle of Domaine Collin and started with the burrata and pears (which they don't have on the menu now) and olives. I had a pizza with arugula on it... it was alright - nothing mind blowing. We ended up sharing the sticky bun as a dessert for my mom, that was good. Fair warning - busy times, longer wait for food. It was during the summer so perhaps they were understaffed so just in case you're hangry... just beware! read more

An old friend who lived in Marin county told us about this very special eatery and shopping market. We didn't have reservations, but they were able to seat us in the outdoor covered patio, which was perfect! We enjoyed a comfortable corner table and the natural cool breeze. Our server Paul gently welcomed us and answered some questions about the menu. We shared the cheesemonger board, which consisted of local farm cheeses, fruits, honeycomb, and house-made bread. It was just enough to enjoy our main dishes. I had the smoked salmon, which was so beautifully curated that I was hesitant to eat it! But I did and it was the best taste combination imaginable. The combination of the house made bread topped with a creamy tangy cheese, capers, pistachios, picked red onions and sliced salmon was nothing short of heavenly! My husband enjoyed the pastrami and perfectly poached eggs, accompanied by spicy red peppers and broccolini and served with a slice of grain bread and a slice of locally made fresh butter. He also loved his zero-proof gin mocktail! Apparently, our personable server, Paul, is also a local middle school teacher, and shared a funny story with us. What a memorable brunch experience! I'm so glad we took my friend's advice! read more

We had dinner at Farmshop on November 24 and the food was genuinely good. It was fresh and served promptly. Unfortunately, the experience took a big downturn when we saw a mouse inside the restaurant just as we had finished our meal. When I told our waiter, he said it probably came in from outside, but it was still unsettling. What made the situation worse was that the staff didn't seem to take it very seriously and didn't address it quickly. We sat at our table for about 10 more minutes before leaving, and nobody attempted to handle the situation. A more proactive response would have gone a long way in reassuring us. It's disappointing because the food and atmosphere have real potential. I hope management addresses the issue, as this could otherwise be a great dining experience. We paid and left the restaurant, but we couldn't help wondering what the situation might be like in the kitchen... read more

We've been debating going here for 4 years. Always thinking the Yelp reviews cant be that bad. We even came to grab take-out dessert this past January and it was popping - so we thought this is promising! Come March we decided to check dinner out. Oh boy... Most of the food was decent. The other half of our order never came. From Manhattans that's tasted cloyingly like maple syrup to a blue steak (supposed to be medium) to several missing dishes, it was an absolute s-show. Our waitress was friendly, but never acknowledged the missing dishes (that miraculously didn't end up on our bill... unspokenly). Even one of the bartenders that delivered a round of drinks jokenly asked 'what's missing?' Clearly the faults of the restaurant are an ongoing joke amongst the staff. Sigh... Pretty sure this is just a money laundry for some entrepreneurial Marin-ites. The pizzolo is a G though and hits well above the rank of this restaurant. One and done. But their takeout desserts slap! read more

First off, kudos to our server who was knowledgeable with all the dishes and was attentive. The best meal we ordered was the pizza. The pasta is ok, small portion and the steak is average. What makes this review 3 stars is additional charge called Small Business Charge around 4%. I know about San Francisco's health charge but Marin? I have not seen this before. Is this a mandated charge? I hope management clarifies what these charges are for... maybe post before people walk in? In the menu at least? I think yelp should also have this as one of the category after "accept reservations" the next line should say "add on tax in bill". Just a suggestion! read more

Food is great Service grey. Everything is amazing. I really enjoy five star. I love.

Service at the bar was iffy at best. . Food is not good. 1. Chef does not trust the excellent ingredients. For example - the main flavor in the tomato salad is GARLIC. a truly insane amount of garlic. And there are pluots in it. Why? 2. Every dish is overthought and overwrought. 3. Pizza is sad. The oven is too hot so the pizza with pepperoni managed to be both burnt and raw at the same time. A massive gelatinous mess of inedible dough. 4. Price. We had three cocktails, two glasses of wine, two salads, and a (nasty) pizza. This bill was $178 5. Service. The bartender was pleasant enough, but it felt like nobody really cared that we were there or gave a hoot about whether we. liked the food. I ate half of my pizza and with a bartender asked us if I want a box I said no. She did not ask if I liked it or not. 6. Big pet peeve of mine - after divesting ourselves of $200 in hard earned money nobody could be bothered to say thank you or good night when we left. Or anything For contrast - We had dinner at Zuni last night and the prices are actually about the same. The difference is that Zuni is good. And they are good because they care. Ah well. Such are the trials of dining in the suburbs... read more
