The food was yummy! The chicken was fresh, and the breading was crispy, the arugula was a really nice touch, the garlic fries were pretty yummy and they had fresh garlic on them. The drink was very refreshing and natural ,freshly made, nice view sitting on the port and enjoying your lunch. The service was really quick and the staff were really nice read more

really good food with an excellent pier ambience. Will certainly bring overseas visitors here rather than the touristy pier in SF or monterey which are more commercialized. read more

Super tasty food at a nice location on the water. Would gladly eat there again in the future. Lovely place if dining with kids.

I was visiting Sausalito for the day and decided to visit for lunch not knowing it was a hot spot. It was a decent line when we walked up and almost no more seating outside which was fine with me since it was a little windy. I really like the large menu before the line to really decide what you want. The chicken sandwich was so big and crispy I only finished half. The salad was good too. Well made and enough of every ingredient. read more

This place is so great, I'd rather not be telling you about it. I'd prefer you didn't know. But then I love it so much, I feel compelled to write a positive review. So maybe read this, and then forget about it. I've been here dozens, maybe a hundred times. The chicken sandwich is one of the best in the bay, the falaffal (or however you spell that) is for real, and the pork tacos... I simply cannot compliment enough. Seriously the best pork tacos I've had (and I've had A LOT). Beer is always ice cold and served with a smile. But the vibe is the really special part. If I could invent a place that I'd want to hang out at, I could not have done a better job. read more

Nice big clean restaurant/tavern. Friendly greeting from staff and cashier. My grandson & I had Joinery cheese burgers which were flavorful and fresh. My daughter had the chicken kale salad she thoroughly enjoyed. We started to sit outside until a couple of gulls started to harass us so we moved indoors. We realize it comes with the territory. Overall nice environment and good food. read more

The view, the food and the service is amazing- what a great spot while in Sausalito! Skip the main drag and head to the Joinery now! The Brussel sprouts were so tasty... the grilled cheese is from another world (it's soooooo good- comes with 3 halves so you can share), the fried chicken sandwich was incredible! My friend had the tuna sandwich- her favorite! 10/10 read more

stopped in for lunch today after a hike in the Marin headlands, with the dogs so we needed outdoor seating. Joinery has plenty of outside seating with tables and backless benches. Our food was really good considering the casual setting. My spouse got a fried chicken sandwich, and I got the falafel plate, which had a lot of varied items on it. unfortunately, the pita chips were a little oily. We also got a side of garlic fries since the sandwich did not come with any. Total for two people with one nonalcoholic limeade was $58. Yes, that seems a little high, but but again the food was much better than expected. I think we'll be back! read more

Delicious!! Loved our stop here. Food was outstanding! Great service and right on the water with plenty of tables and seating. Porchello sandwich- Yes!! Fried chicken sandwich- Hell yeah!! Dirty fries and slaw - home run! Great choices of beer too. Must stop if you are hungry in Sausalito read more

great food, chill vibes. the staff are very helpful and are excited to see us. Would definitely recommend!

Good food, great location, and a fun place to bring dog and kids. The kids' chicken strips were high quality--we've tried a lot of chicken tenders!--fresh, quality chicken. I like that the kids meals automatically come with veggies and fries, rather than a choice of one (which will always be fries). I had the big summer salad, which was, indeed, big. And delicious. Loved the guacamole and grilled cheese. I only wish the tables were bigger--they're a tight fit even for four, and we were a party of six (at least two were small!) A great choice for a casual dinner with the best views. read more

We came here for lunch back in May. I ordered the kale salad and it was probably the best salad I've ever had. The portion was huge. It was enough for two people. The prices were reasonable and the staff was very friendly. The restaurant was clean and had nice views of the ocean. I wish they had a location in Southern California. read more

Have been here a couple of times for lunch. The first time we got pork tacos and the chicken sandwich. Both were really good. The jalapeños on the tacos added just enough heat but wasn't overpowering. The second visit the order was two fried chicken sandwiches. Nice sized pieces of chicken breasts are used and fried to a good crispy breading. The chili aioli is very good but it does get the bun a little soggy. Also ordered the dirty fries, garlic and pork belly and cracklings. They don't hold back on the garlic, as anyone I talked to the rest of the day would probably agree. They have a large open dining room and a small outdoor patio. The place is very clean when we have been there. Service is quick and friendly. We will eat here again. read more

My friends and I came here for dinner on a Saturday evening. It was a gorgeous day out so all of the tables outside were taken and none of the tables inside. The restaurant is on the water, so the view outside is great. There was a line to order, but it moved as expected. Food: I ordered a burger with a veggie patty, fries and brussel sprouts. The burger came with caramelized onions and bleu cheese. It was absolutely delicious. The fries were standard, but good. The brussel sprouts were also good. My friend had the rotisserie chicken, and he thought it was fine. Service: The restaurant is fast-casual where you order at the counter, you're given a number, and the food is brought to your table. There are areas where silverware, water, napkins, and condiments are available. The food came out promptly as things were ready. TL;DR - Great view with good food if you can snag a seat outside on a nice day read more

Great place! We stopped for lunch during a bike ride & enjoyed the outside view of the water, beer & food. Servers were super nice & helpful. I was happy to see vegetarian choices & was able to make my salad gluten free. I am always advocating for more GF & veg offerings! read more

This place is nicely situated next to the water with plenty of outdoor and indoor seating. Scanning their menu on the way in I immediately spotted my lunch meal. I just so happen to be a huge fan of porchetta and their menu had a porchetta sandwich. The sandwich was served on a fresh roll with a lemony mayo that was absolutely delicious. I enjoyed it with a Mexican coke which is made with real sugar not fructose corn syrup. Sitting outside here next to the water on a sunny day made for a perfect lunch. read more

Went here last Saturday on the hottest day of the year (so far) after a too long hike. Frankly I was prepared for the worst, line was out the door and water front establishments don't tend to put a lot of effort in on food when they're selling the waterfront. To our surprise the salads, tacos, and burger were all excellent. The tacos especially were spicy and smoky. I hate when pulled pork tastes like stainless steel and low effort, these are the opposite. Tons of smoky woody flavor and a good amount of spice on them. We tried 3 of the salads and everyone was again surprised at how fresh and complex the salads were. Super flavorful and very freshly made. Burrata & Butternut Squash was a stand out. Beers were excellent as well, nice array of draft options. It's great to have a contemporary place in Sausalito on the water for younger people to enjoy. I will upgrade to 5 stars when they add umbrellas/awning to the side of the building seating so we're not sitting in full sun. read more

Service is great- food is amazing! I would come again and again. I wish they had a place in NY/ NJ. Best food I've had in a very long time.

Food is consistently good! It is our weekly go to. Everything at joinery is tasty and good. Highly recommend. Kindest staff.

Excellent service, good, and ambiance. Everything hit the spot and love the self serve condiments and water. read more

Looking for an interesting and rather unique lunch experience? This is your answer... friendly well-run and great food! We had the good fortune of literally almost stumbling over the GM who told us how to navigate the ordering and from there it just got better...sitting outside right on the bay in sausalito and watching the seagulls and sailboats we had a delicious lunch and nice cold beers. Perfect layover on our way to Windsor. Worth the stop read more

Met up with some family at Joinery, was the first time my wife and I have been. Loved the experience, while it was packed the service was fast and there were multiple seating options indoor and outdoors. Very casual environment, not stuffy at all. As for the food it was very good, lots of options and eyeing what other people were ordering I didn't see anything that didn't look good. read more

Love the set-up for this eatery! There was a group of 9 of us and I loved the fact that you could order at the counter, pay for your own order, take a number, and have them bring the food to you. Sure makes paying the bill easier! I usually wouldn't order a hamburger while out to lunch with a group, but I figured, why not? I'm so glad I did! I cut the burger in half thinking I'd eat half and take the other half home... wrong!! It was so delicious that I ate the whole thing! It was so juicy and the bun was toasted, so it had a definite crunch to it. Whatever they put on it made it just the perfect burger! The onions came grilled and there were pickle slices, tomato, and lettuce. Have no idea why it was so different and delicious, but it was!! Everything else looked great, too, but it would be hard for me to order something other than the burger the next time I go... and there *will* be a next time! read more

I need to know what everyone is smoking to have this plave be the higjest reccomended eatery in the area. Don't get me wrong, the scenery is gorgeous, but the prices are exorbitant. Im from Vegas, the city built on screwing people out of their money, and I have never been served portions so small. This sandwich ($17) should be $16 max, and come with a side, even if that side is the miniscule 8-10 fries you get at our high end restaurants back home. As for the promotion of a small free beer after biking 8 miles to get here, yall should just put the ounces on the ticket directly, because this isnt a small beer. Its an 8oz half pour. A small beer is a 10oz pony. The food was good- the chicken sandwich was dry but the sauce did make up for it- but for the damn price you could get double at a fast casual spot. Also the 13 dollar pour of pinot noir is so light it tastes watery. If you like a red you should get the red blend or go elsewhere. read more

The Joinery was such a sweet surprise to find in beautiful Sausalito. Outdoor restaurants for us newbies parents are really where our heads turn these days. Sausalito is filled with so many amazing spots it's sometimes hard to know which and where to go, but this is a special one. Whether you're looking to dine indoor/out, all patrons wait in one line for register ordering/with table numbers given. Honestly I don't mind this type of service sometimes, it gives ya time here to feel the onshore breeze on the waterfront patio while making your mind up between ordering the rotisserie chicken or fried chicken sandwich, ha. We went with the burrata & sweet peppers, the fried Brussels sprouts, the porchetta sandwich, the fried chicken sandwich, the soup of the day, and side of roasted potatoes. I figured with getting the roasted potatoes I could get the drippings from the rotisserie chicken still, so pro tip..they were excellent! I'm usually not extremely adventurous with my palate when eating while exploring, but the standout here for me (I mean, you truly can't go wrong with this menu) was the burrata & sweet peppers. Your served this amazingly warm and crusted country bread that provides the perfect edible serving tray for the dish. The meat for both sandwiches was so clean and juicy, the flavor profiles of each dish were so vibrant and noteworthy, and you could taste the freshness and vivacity of each dish down to the aïoli served along side the Brussels. The Joinery also has kid's plates, is stroller friendly/doggy friendly, and has a nice drink list. Love how all those are in one sentence :) Can't wait to enjoy more from the menu soon here! *to note* there is a parking attendant on weekends, it can get pretty busy in lot! read more

Good drinks. Amazing food (burger was solid and chicken sando even better). Great spot for a nice day if the line isn't stupid long.

This review is from a couple of months ago, but it's about time I finished it. Joinery in Sausalito used to be my go-to spot back when I worked in the area. Even though I no longer work there, it hasn't stopped me from returning whenever I get the chance. The fried chicken sandwich is a staple here and my usual go-to. It's crispy, juicy, and packed with flavor. My wife went for the porchetta sandwich, which was also a hit--delicious and satisfying. The seating options are flexible, with choices inside or outside. If you opt for the outside, you're treated to a beautiful view of the water. It's a great spot to soak in the scenery while enjoying your meal. Just a heads up, larger groups might find it tricky to get a seat during busier times, but there's a good flow of people in and out, so it's manageable. Joinery continues to be an excellent choice for dining in Sausalito. Especially if you're looking for an option away from the busier areas of the city. read more

The half chicken is the best deal in town and the potatoes are uniquely good and the green salsa is an extra plus.

Small restaurants in booths side by side overcrowded with just ok food. Hard to find seating, lots of pushing and shoving to get in line for a booth to order and then wait to pick up your food. Never again read more

Order at the counter then you find yourself a seat. Water, utensils, napkins & condiments are all self serve. I ordered a Joinery Burger with blue cheese & bacon. It was amazing. Plus a vanilla bean shake. Seating is very cool. You can sit in or outside over looking the Bay. Temps are on the cooler side - I kept my vest on and was perfectly fine. I forgot to take pics! read more

Decided to come here on a sunny weekend when visiting Sausalito. It's a cute lunch spot, with a view out onto the open water of the bay at the dock. It's a very chicken oriented spot, with no other meats being offered. They have a pretty interesting selection of beers as well. You order at the front and then they bring the food out to you. The service is pretty nice and fast, I don't have any complaints. I think on the flavor side, I get that the plate should feel organic and true to the original taste. It tastes great, but I think it is a bit overpriced for what the flavor should be. When it says 1/2 plate, you definitely get half of a whole chicken. So the quantity is there but I think the taste of lightly flavored chicken does get old after a while. So maybe go for the fried chicken sandwich. I think I might be used to pre inflation prices but I think that it might be a bit too much payment for the value that you're getting. Anyways, definitely great to go once in a while if you're in town! read more

Was in Sausalito for a day and needed to grab a quick dinner. Stopped by Joinery and ordered a Joinery burger (added avocado) and dirty fries. You get a number, seat yourself and then they bring out your food to you. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, I opted for outdoor since it was a nice day out. Food took about 20 minutes to be ready. Both the burger and fries were alright, nothing too crazy but personally didn't think it was worth $30. read more

Unpretentious, delicious, popular, and beautiful scenery. Order at the counter, get your number, utensils and water and find yourself a spot. It was busy on a Saturday afternoon, but people don't linger and the restaurant is large. Sandwiches are delicious, fries are ok. Burrata was yummy. There's a lot for cars (pay), and lots of free three hour parking spots. read more

A cute spot in Sausalito right on the water. Plenty of parking nearby. Upon entering the menu is on the wall and easy to peruse. Counter service ordering was fairly easy and we went to seat ourselves. On our visit there was seating inside and the large doors were open to the patio which is where most people were sitting. The seating wrapped around the side and we grabbed a spot along the edge. It wasn't as nice as the patio views but still nice, although a bit windy. Food selections were a fancy grilled cheese, tacos, chicken sandwich and joinery burger. We also got regular fries and dirty fries. Food was good. Would've liked sides included rather than al a carte. Saw some of the salads which were very big and looked delicious. Tables were bussed as we were finishing and overall the location seemed well kept and clean. Overall a good, casual option in Sausalito. read more

Great place to sit outside for lunch on a warm day. The summer salad was very good and I would definitely order it again but the rotisserie chicken add-on was super dry - like tired, days old, leftover chicken dry. No bueno. And not worth the extra money. It was unfortunate because the chicken dish looked pretty good visually. I thought it'd be the same kind of chicken. Guess not - or maybe it was?, in which case, order at your own risk. Very popular place tho. read more

If you're visiting Sausalito and looking for lunch, Joinery is a great option! They have a variety of options on the menu including salads, sandwiches, fries, and beer. I've tried the Joinery Burger and Tuna Conserva Sandwich. Both of these were delicious. The burger was juicy and flavorful throughout. As a tuna lover, I enjoyed the tuna sandwich as well. They have indoor and outdoor dining with a nice view of the pier. The wait can be long during peak times, but they bring out your order in a timely manner. read more
