Small Expensive Take Out Orders.
Vin Z.

I ordered a veggie enchilada and a cheese quesadilla. Both portions were extremely SMALL with minimum fillings... especially for the price! Glad I had more food at home to make my dinner complete. FYI, there isn't a "to go" menu available. Staff are friendly and there isn't any atmosphere to describe, except perhaps basic.

Carne asada super burrito. Paper straw for size comparison.'

Not quite worth the money. $15 for a super burrito that was dry and more rice than meat. Large tortilla that was barely filled. Service was ok- nobody overly kind, very direct and not friendly. Restaurant was ok and clean. Empty when I went. Street Parking.

Love these paintings.

I have always been cheerfully welcomed when I come here. I eat here with friends and family. As we were traveling through the south western US, I remembered comparing the food to this La Hacienda and we always thought La Hacienda's food was better. We commented how lucky we were. We still feel that way. Its on the frontage road between Merrydale and the 101. Get off at the North San Pedro exit coming from the north, turn right, go past McDonald's and keep going. Merrydale Road comes to a dead ends, so take the last right. You'll see it on your left.

Tiny Burrito

Ordered a burrito at La Hacienda and thought they gave me a taco by mistake. Tasty little guy--but I needed three more to call it dinner. SUPER TINY BURRITO

Sitting area. Love the art work of the big ones talented from Mexico

We came in towards the end of the night so the place was nearly empty but a couple tables. However, service was great. Super friendly staff and the food itself was tasty. We got the plater, which BTW should be eaten by two, and we also got a taco de lengua. The meat of this taco was soft, right among of ingredients and the meat was seasoned just right. I liked the fact there are Tvs, means you can enjoy watching your favorite soccer game live. Price I felt it was fair for being in Marin, and the amount of food you get it's worth it. *they also seem to have a covered patio. Try this place out for your next event!

Vegetarian mas macho grande burrito
Mark K.

Just a quick bite for dinner turned into a challenge of the will and body! Ordered a couple of mas macho grande burritos for take out, and a Jamaica drink. One was carne asada, the other vegetarian (not the veggie one!). Both were very heavy and just overflowing on the outside with sauce, salsa and sour cream. The inside was even more diverse in ingredients ... One was finished in one seating, the other will be for lunch tomorrow - just too much! But very good ....

This is a great spot for Marin!…read more I haven't really dabbled into trying thai and lao food as much, but my friend took me here and she's been here a handful of times! Located in downtown San Rafael, there is street parking and parking areas that are meter paid. We came in at 12 ish on a Monday and ordered right away. It wasn't busy but as soon as our food came out the restaurant was filled! We got: 1. Lao papaya salad 2. Lao sausage 3. Khao Piak - chicken 4. Khao Poon Lao papaya salad was amazing! I am used to eating more umami flavored, stinky shrimp paste dishes so it was extra delicious. Flavor was everything and I liked how it was served with a side of cabbage. As for the lao sausage, this could be eaten with rice but pairing it with freshly steamed veggies is even better. Get your fiber in! The sauce paired with this appetizer is nice as well. As for the Khao Piak, it was my first time trying something like this. The tapioca noodles were super chewy and long! I believe this was made fresh in house, and we should have asked for scissors because the pieces were so long. They remind me of the noodles that are used for banh canh. The soup was flavorful and not watered down. Perfect because we were both a bit sick. Lastly I have never tried Khao Poon and heard many great things! I am so glad I tried it because I am a coconut flavor lover for everything (but candies). The coconut soup base was rich, and the noodles, and garnishments were separate. I didn't mind because we didn't end up finishing everything anyways. We actually ordered way too much for 2 girls. Anyways, this was my absolute favorite from Laos Kitchen. Overall I would like to try more new items here next time I'm in the area. I did see a lot of people order more Thai food such as pad thai and the spring rolls. Maybe I'll get the nam khao and the tom yum soup in the future! Thanks so much Laos Kitchen! Check out my foodie instagram/tiktok for my video about this place: @sarah.nomnoms

My family and I came here to celebrate my mom's birthday, and unfortunately, the entire experience…read morewas incredibly disappointing from start to finish. When we arrived, there were only two other parties in the restaurant, so I'm not sure why it took so long for us to be seated. Once we finally got to our table, we weren't even given menus. We only had the single menu we picked up from the waiting area and had to ask the waitress to bring us more. After everyone had finally decided what to order and we'd already spent more time waiting, the waitress informed us that nearly half the menu was unavailable because they were closing the kitchen. Keep in mind, we arrived an entire hour before the restaurant's advertised closing time. We couldn't order any appetizers, sodas, specialty drinks, or even several of the main dishes. I understand that restaurants need time to close, but why continue seating customers if you're already shutting down most of your kitchen? At the very least, we should have been informed of these restrictions before being seated and spending time choosing our meals. To make matters worse, when the waitress finally took our orders, she went around the table asking everyone what they wanted but completely skipped over me. She then told us our food would be out shortly and was about to leave before my family had to point out that she hadn't even taken my order. When our food eventually arrived, we had barely started eating before the waitress came back and rushed us to pay because they needed to close their system. At that point, it felt like we were being treated as an inconvenience rather than paying customers. What makes this experience especially frustrating is that we weren't asking for anything unreasonable. We simply wanted to enjoy a nice dinner together for my mom's birthday. Instead, we spent most of our visit waiting, being told what we couldn't order, and feeling rushed out of a restaurant that was still supposed to be open. I understand that employees want to go home at the end of their shifts, and I have no issue with that. However, if a restaurant advertises certain operating hours, customers should reasonably expect to receive proper service during those hours. If the kitchen closes earlier, that should be clearly communicated beforehand. Overall, what should have been a pleasant birthday dinner turned into an unnecessarily frustrating experience. It's incredibly disappointing that a restaurant could make guests feel so unwelcome simply for showing up during its advertised business hours. We left feeling like our presence was a burden, and that's not how anyone should feel when they're paying to celebrate a special occasion. I genuinely wish we had chosen somewhere else for my mom's birthday.

I did some research on brunch places. Comforts being one of them…read more The six of us planned to meet at 10am Saturday arriving from Contra Costa County, San Francisco County, and locally from San Rafael. Pro tip: the entire party needs to be present to be seated. Hubby and I were running late. Got there at 10:30am. Found our party seated inside. It was okay as long as they ordered without waiting for us. Comforts is both a restaurant with indoor and outdoor dining, and a separate take out deli bakery. Known for their Chinese chicken salad which we all planned to purchase at the deli after brunch. We all enjoyed what we ordered - * pork carnitas hash + eggs - hubby & BIL both had this. Very hearty meal. * stuffed pecan crusted French toast - sis had 1/2 order. I tasted it. Thought very sweet. * eggs your way- friend enjoyed. She ate the scone but left the jasmine rice. * farmers breakfast - both friend & I had this. My eggs cooked perfectly. Griddle pancakes excellent. Service was friendly and efficient. We finished brunch within an hour. Automatic gratuity as we were party of six. Then moseyed over to the deli bakery. You need to pull a number located by the bakery front door. I bought three bakery items and a large box of the Chinese chicken salad. The peanut butter cookie and the chocolate chip cookie were very sweet. Definitely need a glass of milk or a strong cup of coffee. The lemon bar was very good. Very lemony with a thin crust. Being a Saturday the deli bakery was very busy. We had the Chinese chicken salad as a side for dinner. It was good but I'll pass on it next time.
