    This tavern does dish out some nice comfort food. There is less lighting to give it a more romantic candlelight vibe. I had their housemade edamame hummus and steak frites. Surprisingly got a popover for...dining in? Wow! I'n a sucker for peppercorn so the flavor of the steak clicked with me. I consider it a generous portion. The pita that came with the hummus is not the traditional kind, but welcome nevertheless. I did not stay for dessert or a drink, so this will be on my to-do list for next time! Must try, especially if you love the tavern feel/vibe!

    Everything was good until it wasn't. We enjoyed the cocktails, the appetizers, the service and then I was horrified and couldn't recover from the ladies room bathroom fan. How disgusting is that air and what else are they not cleaning... especially in the kitchen? Who is cleaning that bathroom every single day and ignoring that mess??

    Pretty place, more of a lounge type of atmosphere with the blue velvet couch and dark lighting. The interior put me in the mind of the old days of Las Vegas with Sammy David Jr and Frank Sinatra. But it is a combined restaurant and lounge. It's great for an intimate date night. Now, it can be great for brunch with the girls or a family spot if you sit outside. I got the Steak Frites, and the steak could have been more seasoned, but it was tender. Now, I could go back over and over for the onion soup. My Brother got the Prime Rib and eggs, and he gave it a thumbs up. The service was top-notch!

    What a surprise to find this gem in Mill Valley! We had a group of seven and had been wandering around the Marin Headlands and wanted a place for dinner before we headed back to Sacramento. It was a Monday night, and we were seated immediately without reservation. The service team was welcoming to this random group of tourists, which I certainly appreciated! I started with a delicious barrel-aged Manhattan, one of my beverages of choice. We had a variety of dishes, but the standouts were the popovers, the French Onion Soup, the salmon bowl (so pretty!), and the fried chicken. But really, everything we ordered was good. Now I wish I lived closer because I would be a regular here!

    Great food, fast service, loved our visit only down side felt shoved in the cold corner when someone got sat in our seat, despite us being on time. Made it a distracting meal with people in and out the kitchen and one the other side heading when it was meant to be a celebration

    I came here after a long hike looking to have a nice meal and with a nice atmosphere and that I got! The ambiance was cozy and resembled what I imagine an elevated tavern to be. Our waiter was extremely kind and the exceptional service made the place feel luxurious. They were dressed nice and spoke to my family and I eloquently, therefore, I would recommend dressing up for this place! The food was amazing and they served us complementary pop overs which were better than any other complimentary bread I've ever been served. I highly recommend going here to enjoy their high quality food for any occasion. Spicy Lobster & Burrata Linguine 5/5 This is one of my favorite linguines I've ever had. The pasta wasn't too overwhelmingly dense and the sauce was flavorful yet light. The peppers added a subtle spice to the meal and complimented the creaminess of the sauce. The buratta was also very creamy and had a great texture. The quality of their lobster is what made me want to rate this a 5. Although it wasn't plentiful (as most other nicer restaurants aren't either), I could tell they care about the quality of their ingredients and want to serve the best pieces to their customers. I compare the pastas I have had after this to this dish because of how amazing it was. I would 100% get this again!

    It's rare that a restaurant hits all the high points at once. Maybe it was helped by a rare warm evening but it was the most delightful dining experience we've had in a long time. The service was attentive and kind throughout the meal. The salads were exciting with lots of good surprises. They brought us gigantic popovers and there was no charge for them. The music was perfect. Kind of a European jazzy mellow playlist. And the delightful owner, Lara, visited each table to make sure all was right. It was just working for us on all levels. A unique experience and we will surely be back.

    Here's what arrived. Raw and inedible and enough to make anyone a vegetarian.

    Ordered hamburger and prime rib sandwich. The hamburger was delicious - the prime rib sandwich was sad - Little chunks of overcooked meat on big pieces of bread. Returned and the restaurant graciously took it off our bill. The margaritas were fantastic!

    Fried brussel sprouts

    We joined friends for dinner here and enjoyed our super friendly server. We were excited to see popovers on the menu, but disappointed that they did not have any jam to serve with it. They said the chef would come up with an alternative for us since it was dinner service. Between all 5 of us (we all ordered popovers) they gave us ONE tiny portion of an apple compote--for all 5 of us? We literally had a tiny tiny portion to try out of that super small portion given to us. Sadly we couldn't put it on all of our popovers. This made me miss The Cliff House popovers so much (RIP Cliff House). We were also sorely disappointed with the fried chicken which we all read raving reviews about. Although a bit juicy the fried chicken literally tasted like it had no seasoning whatsoever. Just really bland fried chicken. We had no salt & pepper on the table either so I hated to ask our server for it since we tried to request jam already for our popovers. I guess that is what the sauces on the side were for? I didn't like any of them. I thought good fried chicken would be seasoned so it would be good enough to eat on its own. Have you ever been to Wayfare Tavern in San Francisco? Now their fried chicken blows Gravity's out of the water. Dessert was definitely the saving grace to our meal. I would come back, but definitely to try other things on their menu.

    Surf and Turf

    Booked through Yelp and confirmed yet somehow they didn't have our names at the door. Got seated anyway. Got served complimentary popovers (giant, puffy, and served with soft herbed butter.) I dk if everybody gets these or if they were trying to make it up for the confusion at the door. The motivation for trying them out was, they were part of Mill Valley Restaurant Rally, promoted in Marin Magazine. This downtown MV "rally" featured prix fixe specials at 7 downtown MV restaurants. The menu at this one sounded appealing. But after being seated, we were given regular menus and no mention of price fixe. We had to ask! Then our waiter brought the special menu, which I ordered from. The hubs ordered from the main menu. For $55 I got: Surf and Turf c Maine lobster, steak c bearnaise sauce, grilled asparagus. Delicious! Salad: mesclun, dill, corn, grape tomatoes, lots of purple onion. Pretty but underdressed and too much onion. Dessert: flourless chocolate cake, a very dense brownie-ish square that I couldn't tolerate, aside from the fruit sauce and microscoop of ice cream. The hub: ordered the ceviche appetizer and linguini with lobster and burrata. I found the chips accompanying the ceviche too greasy. He liked both dishes. Ambience: Pleasant, visually dark and pub like but with some tables on an open patio and others in a verandah looking out. Music - maybe 70s? Some that we heard were Steely Dan Ambrosia (biggest part of me) Al Green Amy Winehouse Los Yesterdays (Give me one more chance) Little River Band (Reminiscing) How Long (Ace) Fleetwood Mac (Gypsy) Overall I'd give this place a 4 and would go back for a Surf and Turf a la carte, maybe with apps and dessert from the main menu.

    French fries, tuna tartare, & bomb ass Brussels sprouts!

    Quality has progressively gotten worse as the price has gone up…read more Tonight we sat for almost 15 minutes at the drive thru window waiting for our order. Our kids sucked down there super small cokes that come in the combo while they waited for their food. As soon as we got our food, we pulled over and started eating the fries or some of the worst coldest driest rubbery fries I've ever gotten from any drive-through. The chicken sandwich was a joke. The bun was so dry and crumbly, I had to peel all of the rock hard edges off just to bite into the sandwich and when I did, the grilled chicken was rubbery, stale, and lukewarm I can't believe we waited so long and the food wasn't fresh. It tasted like it had been sitting there half the night before they gave it to us. I'm all for paying high price for quality food. If it's worth it, this sadly was not. all four of us got home and complained individually about our experience. Pretty sad for a $75 drive-through order which consisted of three combos and an extra hamburger. Definitely will make efforts to avoid this place in the future. I feel bad, giving poor ratings, but I also do not like when restaurants rest on their laurels have high priced food yet the quality and the experience don't match.

Then an order of garlic fries and an IPA for about $30 total. We ordered at the kiosk while our other friends ordered from the counter. They got their food before us even though they ordered after us from a live person. Go figure. I have to admit the burger wasn't very big but it was juicy and the garlic fries were yummy. I'm glad we ate in as the burger and fries would have been soggy if we took it to go. I also ordered water but had to go get it myself. Why even put it on the menu? Also, the pickles had some heat which is good in my book.

I asked the order taker what the price was for a Big Mac Value Meal and she shouted that she wouldn't know unless I placed my order and then it would tell her. Really, because I'm pretty sure that order is the number one thing they sell so she should know the price by the second day she worked there. Btw, how is it even legal to not display your prices? Every McDonald's has different prices so you really need to know. The other thing, apart from corporate malfeasance, is that the staff is exceptionally rude and constantly get your order wrong. I asked for a Dr Pepper and on the order board it said "Coke" so I had to correct them. Then when I got my order they gave me ice, when I had asked for none, and didn't give me ketchup and salt on the side like I asked for. All the while being shouty at me, just because I corrected them politely. I've learned my lesson and am never coming here again, and I suggest you do the same, unless you're a masochist and like to be abused.

The burgers are big, the sides are generous, and everything we tried was genuinely tasty. We split a burger and fries between two people and both left completely satisfied. That's a testament to both the portion sizes and the quality. You're getting real value here. The menu has a wide variety of burger options, and they've put some thought into the kids' menu. They also do catering for birthdays with sliders and different options, which is a nice touch for families. The space itself is versatile. There's a great bar area with TVs if you want to catch a game, but also plenty of seating for more intimate meals or larger groups. It's very family-friendly without feeling like a kid-only zone. The staff was attentive throughout our visit, which made the experience even better. Parking is a breeze since it's right on the outside of the mall. That alone makes it more appealing than a lot of other options in the area. There are plenty of burger places out there, but as far as sit-down restaurants go, Roam is one to watch. It's a great addition to the mall and the Corte Madera dining scene. We'll definitely be back, and I'd recommend giving it a shot if you're looking for a reliable meal that won't disappoint.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
