Only picture I took. Margarita and Paloma
Jessica M.

Came here after work with a coworker on a random weekday and was pleasantly surprised. The name looked familiar but I haven't been before this time. Spot was huge! Lots of seating inside as well as outside. It was a nice day but a little too warm so we opted to sit inside. You have to order at the counter/register before you find your seat. We ordered the falafel salad and the poke tacos to share. Completely forgot to take photos which is not like me but both were really good. Salad was a big portion, came with lettuce, beets, chickpeas, avocado, tomatoes, cucumber, quinoa, feta, hummus, the falafel of course and a tahini dressing. Super refreshing. I'd order it again. Everything paired well together. The poke tacos order came with 3. The spicy mayo was a nice touch. Again, would order this again. For our drinks, i ordered a Paloma and my friend got a margarita. Drinks were refreshing. Not that strong but still good. Even though you have to order up front, they have someone coming to clean the tables and he even came while we were still sitting down, which was nice. Staff was friendly and pleasant! Will definitely be coming back to try other things. They have a lot of things to choose from, plenty of drinks (both alcoholic and non), as well as desserts! Can't believe I work so close and am only getting to this spot now. Check them out if you can!

Very large space, modern design, clean, easily accessible, adequate service. A nice variety on the MENU and a COOL backbar with wine and beer, sporting events behind the bar on two screens. I had the veggie burger with cheese (MEH) adequate but overpriced by at least $3.00. Nice environment here at the refreshed Bon Air Plaza in Marin County but maybe a little bit bigger than it needs to be? I'll come here again but I wish I had a burrito which was my original goal, but I missed the turn. This looks like a great place to bring your family with little children, etc. I usually have a lot more to say, but frankly, there is not much to add.

EAT neon sign through glass: The classic Gott's red neon
Marc D.

Good, not great. That sums up the new Gott's at Bon Air Center. I'm a fan of the chain and have hit the Walnut Creek and Napa spots, so when this one opened in Greenbrae I had to check it out. It delivers the Gott's you know, but nothing here pushed past solid. We got an Impossible Burger, a cheeseburger, fries, and the veggies with hummus. The cheeseburger was the standout, classic griddled patty, melted cheese, lettuce and pickle on a soft bun. Tasted good. Not Shake Shack good, but good. The fries were fine. The veggies with hummus felt thin for what you pay. For two people at lunch this added up faster than expected, on par with the other locations but still pricey for what lands on the tray. Ordering was smooth and the service was great. Food came out fast. The space is bigger than you'd think, with indoor and outdoor seating under umbrellas, and we had no trouble grabbing a table inside even with a crowd. It stays clean, and it's not as loud as you'd expect given all the kids and open layout. Beer, wine, and drinks are on offer, and there's a full bar area with TVs running soccer. Parking is easy since it sits in a large center, but watch yourself. People walk right in front of moving cars like the lot belongs to them. ADA spots are up front. Fun place to eat and people-watch. I'd come back if I were in the area, but Bon Air has a lot of other choices, so look around before you commit.

A Great Burger joint with lots of benches and tables to choose from . Got the Burger with Blue cheese , Double cheese Burger , Tacos , side onion ring and garlic fries.. got my white wine to go with my burger . . This location is definitely a local community joint where families go out for lunch on weekends. Teles the person who got our order was very welcoming. Since we have a buddy Dog with us . Instead of hotdog she suggested a patty. . A friendly conversation goes a mile for a first timer experience.Its a go brunch for us now ..

Good Beer selection. Best servers. Leo is the man. It's the local choice and that's it. Food is always on point. This Gotts is managed so well that it never disappoints. Well done.

Impossible nuggets.  IMPOSSIBLE.
Mercy D.

We've been to this location plenty of times and have never had a problem.. until today... The only reason to come is really the large open space inside as well as outside. Lots of seating and so nice during the summertime when the weather is nice and hot. There's a small playground in front and even a large fire pit that I imagine would be lit up during cold nights (I haven't actually seen this myself). It's a great spot to hangout with your kids, family, friends, and animals! Plus there is also a few dessert places next door! My child loves the plain cheeseburger on Gluten-Free bun. The impossible nuggets and the roasted brussel sprouts are what I usually order. Today those impossible nuggets became the impossible to ever eat again for me. When I got my order I thought "wow that's weird these look really oily today..." as I marveled at the extra shininess of these nuggets. I sat down and ate one anyway because I was pretty hungry. And then.... after a couple of chomps... I looked down into the container and felt my hunger instantly replaced by disgust and the desire to eat completely disappeared. The impossible nuggets were sitting - swimming - in oil.

Vietnamese Chicken Salad
Kyra K.

Hanging out with my friends who live in Marin, they recommended we all take our pups here for a dog-friendly no-frills meal. I've been to Gott's at the Ferry Building, but this was my first time trying their other locations. Overall, good food and service, nothing particularly memorable. The restaurant is unassumingly huge! It is extremely open and spacious with plenty of seating for all party sizes plus a bar. The menu is extensive and displayed on giant screens. You order at the front with the workers and wait for your buzzer to go off. There's a section for ordering and picking up food, and all condiments and utensils are self-serve throughout the restaurant. If you want their soft serve, they have a tablet you can order and pay at. We chose to sit outside with our pups and there was plenty of spacious seating in the plaza. My friend recommended the Vietnamese Chicken Salad. I love salads and am a sucker for a chicken one so I opted for that. No complaints, tastes as listed! The salad was fresh, filling, and well-balanced. It was a giant portion and I could only eat half. My friends enjoyed their meals and everything they ordered looked good! If you live in this part of Marin, Gott's Roadside is a great option for a fast, casual, and decent meal. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat it but it's a nice spot in Bon Air. Parking is plentiful in the shopping plaza.

Double Cheeseburger, brussel sprouts, fries and rings and some dummy of a sister ordered a salad
Raymond L.

This particular Gott's is overrated in my opinion and if this is any indication of a Gott's then this will be a one and done. The double cheeseburger was a ho hum cheeseburger, nothing special. The fries and onion rings were pretty good, the rings were not real crunchy so I would order them again. Whoever heard of a burger joint that serves brussel sprouts, only in marin, they were good but I like brussel sprouts that aren't overly roasted, it's as if it was left in the oven forever. I don't know what my dear sister was thinking, but who the hell orders a salad at a burger joint, needless to say, that was the only item doggy bagged home. Silly sis.

Cheeseburger and fries.
amy T.

I like it here because it's not just burgers. They have a few sandwiches, a few salads, ahi tacos, and burgers. Their fries are great. We usually get the ahi tacos. They are definitely not Mexican tacos. They're closer to an Asian taco with a soy flavor and green onion. The service is pretty quick. Order ahead if you're really hungry and it's a weekend.

On a Saturday evening in mid May, my family came here for dinner. It was hard to find parking at 5:40pm so we circled around the plaza. It's located next to Susie cupcakes and the line was long to order. There was so many little kids eating with their families. Lucky my brother found a table in the corner. The ambiance is nice of people watching and staff cleaning tables. We ordered at the cashier and got Texas avocado burger and shared fries. There are different sauces at the sauce counter. My burger tastes good like a homemade burger. The fries are nice and crispy, . No room for ice cream cone. I read it's coming to LA soon.

Gluten free beer from BevMo to go with our gluten free gotts burgers
Jennifer C P.

Yes, it's going to be expensive. Especially if you are comparing it to fast food or chains. When you want quality food, expect this. Too many reviews complain about this. I don't get it. I don't need to get it. Onward. When you are looking for a delicious burger with sides, gotts has it! My gluten free burger was delicious. My husband bought my favorite gluten free beer from BevMo so I could recreate my favorite: Burger and a beer. Gotts was always a stop on our way to wine country when we started on the Napa side before we went over the hill to the Sonoma side for wine pickups and dinner. Delicious meal, reasonably priced, gluten free joy in my heart.

We enjoyed the jumbo pub wings in the jerk dry rub and sweet chili flavors, a rueben sandwich with hand cut fries, and a burren burger with hand cut fries. Our favorites were the wings and the hand cut fries, but the sandwich and burger are solid options. We visited during a world cup soccer game and the atmosphere was that of a pub or sports bar with lively cheering fans and regulars. I highly recommend trying it if you're in the area.

The hostess pointed towards the back and said, "Grab a seat!" This was friendly and normal. So we walk towards the back and start to sit in a booth with four seats. Mind you, the place was EMPTY except for one other table and a waitress folding napkins at another table. Immediately upon us trying to sit down in the booth, and jumped up and asserted: "You can't sit there!! We need that table for four people! Take one of our two-tops." Now, if a place is busy, of course we will do that. But my husband is a larger man and much more comfortable in a wider booth, which is partly why we came early. We asked nicely but the waitress demanded to know who told us we could sit there, then went up to the front to fact check our claim with the hostess. It was so offensive and off putting, we just left. It was embarrassing and rude. Too bad they hire staff that have no manners. They chase away long term business this way because you can definitely believe we told all our friends about this terrible experience.

Special Tomato Salad: 4.5 stars $18 A very scant name for a delicious combo of rich and creamy buratta, heirloom tomatoes and a pesto dressing. Not really the best time of year to make tomatoes the star, but the combo brought out their best. Wood Grilled Duck: 5+ stars $47 I was a little worried that wood grilling might dry out the duck, but this was probably the best duck I've ever had. The leg was tender with crispy skin and the breast was wonderfully juicy, without being too rare. the fig compote on top was very earthy and not too sweet. I even liked the roasted carrots, and I rarely like cooked carrots. Wood Grilled Sword Fish: 5 stars $41 T ordered this it was roasted perfectly. the accompanying butterbeans with roasted tomatoes and shisito peppers was not at all over powering. The service was absolutely perfect! I wasn't exactly sure who did which job, because all the servers seemed to do everything. No one said that's not my table or not my job. Now that we know it's only a little over an hour away (if it's not rush hour), I think it might become a destination meal for us every so often.

Unfortunately, it was closed, so we didn't get a chance to check it out. We noticed a balcony where people dined, and I said, "Maybe we'll try it some other time." About a year later, we spent a night in Corte Madera before heading to Clear Lake. Since it was his birthday weekend, I thought it would be perfect for the four of us to have a celebratory breakfast before our long drive. We walked in, and I couldn't help but exclaim, "Damn! This place is BOUJEEEEE!" (A term I picked up from my millennial coworker, meaning "luxurious in lifestyle.") A tall, dark, intimidating man stood watch at the door, not even greeting us. Maybe we didn't look like we belonged in such an upscale place. Undeterred, we explored each showroom before making our way up the grand staircase to the restaurant. Wow, wow, wow! Crystal chandeliers sparkled overhead, and a majestic fountain with a Roman centerpiece stood in the middle of the dining room. Lush plants and trees hung everywhere, giving the space an atmosphere that matched the showrooms--stylish, elegant, and sophisticated. We received both the all-day and brunch menus. Since my partner loves oysters (and it was his birthday celebration), we started with a dozen. They were plump, smooth, and silky--like a kiss from the ocean. Craving something different, I also ordered the Hamachi Caviar Carpaccio. It was delicate, fresh, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. I was slightly bummed that my partner's daughter loved it so much, while my own daughter wasn't interested after trying a small piece. I almost ordered another, but remembered we still had breakfast coming. At least I got the tiniest final bite of carpaccio. If our appetizers set the bar this high, I couldn't wait for the next dishes. My partner had the RH Scramble, and I chose the American Breakfast. We were both blown away by the scrambled eggs--so fluffy and creamy, almost magical. I always add milk to my eggs, but they never turn out like this. My partner's daughter enjoyed two enormous slices of avocado toast, while my daughter opted for the Swedish Pancakes, which were rich and buttery. The sweet potato fries struck the perfect balance of sweet and salty. The girls sipped hot chocolate adorned with cute designs; my partner's cortado featured a stylish RH motif, and my chai latte was dusted with cinnamon. Stuffed as I was, I still wanted us to sing happy birthday, so I ordered a crème brûlée for the occasion (they put the candle on the side). Breaking through the thin, glassy top was satisfying, and the silky, ultra-creamy custard beneath was absolutely divine. I also spotted chocolate cookies on the menu and eagerly ordered them for the road trip--they remained scrumptious even after a quick spin in the microwave. What an exceptional meal! The service was just as memorable--every server was outstanding. Okay, that was an expensive breakfast. Looks like it's Taco Bell for the rest of our trip!

Since we had just dined at a Michelin-starred spot in the city the night before, I was excited but didn't expect too much--even though I've long respected Chef Ron Siegel and always wanted to try his cuisine. And it did not disappoint. In fact, it easily ranks among the top three best-run restaurants I've experienced on the West Coast, possibly rivaling the best spots I've tried in New York as well. Every single dish is meticulously prepped and presented like a work of art, stunningly aesthetic with impeccable, harmonious flavors that showcase a brilliant fusion of Japanese and Californian influences. A special shout-out goes to the egg dish with pistachio crumbs and toast: it had a wonderfully foamy texture, almost like creamy cloud, paired with a rich, runny yolk and toast so good it made me want to dance. You can feel the immense thought behind every single plate. After trying so many restaurants, I was thrilled to find myself genuinely surprised and delighted by every single bite. The service was flawless, the pacing was perfect, and catching a glimpse of the chef himself made the night feel even more special. It is an absolute honor to experience his masterpieces. We loved it so much that we immediately planed a return visit for January and can't wait to go back. I would highly recommend Madcap to anyone (though I'm also a little scared it's going to get even harder to book!). Thank you for a truly wonderful night.

Our first time…read morethere, expectations and anticipation were pretty high -- and somehow the experience still exceeded them. What struck me most was how beautifully balanced everything was. The 11-course tasting menu was creative and visually stunning, but never felt like presentation was taking precedence over flavor. There was tremendous depth and complexity throughout the meal, yet the individual ingredients still came through clearly. Even with so many courses, each one felt distinct and purposeful. The opening snacks immediately set the tone, particularly the local halibut bao -- incredibly soft and delicate, with this wonderful combination of flavor, texture and color. One of my favorite courses of the entire evening was the yellow peach gazpacho with smoked trout roe, pistachio and avocado. It had an almost surprising amount of depth and intensity for something that initially seemed so light. Every bite seemed to reveal another layer of flavor. The bluefin tuna with summer melon, cucumber and ama rosa potatoes was another standout. Beautifully fresh and composed, with that balance between richness, brightness and texture that seemed to characterize the entire menu. And then there was the dry-aged Flannery beef ribeye with eggplant, summer peppers and romesco. Wow! The portion was beautifully restrained, but the beef was so intensely rich, juicy and flavorful that it somehow felt like eating a much larger steak. One of those dishes where a relatively small amount delivers an enormous experience. Dessert continued the theme. The hazelnut cake with blackberry ice cream was fantastic -- rich, nutty and wonderfully balanced by the fruit -- and I loved the progression into the cotija pot de crème with fig, followed by the final canele, chocolate, pate de fruit and caramel. Heavenly. Just as impressive were all of the details surrounding the meal: the beautiful artwork, ceramics, silverware, plating, lighting and pacing of the evening. Service was warm, knowledgeable and attentive without ever feeling overly formal. There was a sense of care behind everything. That may ultimately be what I appreciated most about Madcap. It wasn't simply a collection of excellent dishes. The entire evening felt designed as one coherent experience -- food, wine, presentation, service and atmosphere all working together. An amazing birthday dinner and a genuinely memorable Michelin-starred experience. We left very happy, very full, and already talking about our return visit.

I have said this time and time again about the garden café. It is our place to go whenever we want…read morelunch or even breakfast. The food there is always consistent. You get nothing but fresh eggs, hashbrowns, and the bacon is to die for. Not to mention that you get plenty of food. I have tried everything on that menu just about. I have had their chicken fried steak, they're French toast, they're bacon and eggs. For lunch, I've tried their taco salad, prawn salad, their tacos and their chicken BLT burrito,their hamburgers, and their Reuben sandwiches. Every time I go there, I'd like to try something different and every time I'm never disappointed. The wait for a table is not that long although it seems like it's gonna be but it's not. And I have to say it's worth a weight. The staff there are so friendly that they get to know you and they are they always greet you. They know what you want to eat. You never really sometimes have to tell him what you want. That's what's really nice about this place. I will continue to go there because it's the freshest place around and I've never been disappointed. You can either choose to sit inside or you can choose to sit outside either way you're so comfortable, so make sure you make this a stop it's worth it!!
