Decided to come here after a day at Muir Woods a little skeptical about how good an organic plant…read morebased ice cream shop could truly be (it was conveniently on the way towards the Richmond Bridge for our way back home which is why we picked it compared to other places in San Rafael or Sausalito). The shop is pretty tiny, located next to a donut shop near the netrance of a medium sized open plan shopping center. Came in there and the worker offered us whatever samples we wanted and we immediately noticed the really interesting but unusual flavors that they had. Of the classic type flavors, we really liked the brown sugar vanilla and the breakfast cereal one. The cherry special drink and the grapfruit one also tasted quite nice. But the ones that stood out the most were the thom ka and the chaat masala ones. while the chaat masala didnt end up having that distinct tanginess you might expect, the thom ka ice cream was mind blowing. It tasted exactly like having the soup but in a cool and refreshingly creamy dessert form. My mind couldn't really process it other than the fact that it was delicious. We ended up opting to pair the thom ka and the brown sugar vanilla to have a "normal" flavor to offset the unusualness of having a thai soup ice cream. We honestly could not get enough of it - it easily was one of the best ice cream scoops we had ever had and it being a plant based ice cream was insanely impressive. Frankie & Jo's will definitely be a place we will be returning to especially as the new seasonal flavors roll out so we can see what other concoctions they might be able to try and conquer.

Also there was no description of the flavors, for example, they could each say "coconut based ice cream with fudge and chocolate chips and cinnamon" or whatever but there was none. I'm a vegetarian and previously vegan too so I have nothing against it, it just wasn't clear at all . All the flavors just tasted like coconut ice.

Wow, this gelato was the best I've had in a long time. I can't wait to eat it again. I had vanilla, green tea, and raspberry sorbet. I can't wait to go find it in Molli Stones or do a special run to San Rafael and load up the car. The flavor and texture is fantastic. (Noticed i use that word twice!).

We googled Fiorello and paid them a visit. I love that there are amazing dairy free flavors. No deprivation in the dairy free department. The texture of their gelatos and sorbets is so satisfying. I feel as if I'm back in Venice. (They are in the canal, but it's not quite the same.) We stock up for ourselves and hand out a few to neighbors and friends in place of wine now that more people are not drinking. Cheers!

We've ordered their single pizzas here many times. They're tasty, fast, and inexpensive. They're…read morealso very thin crusted with not a lot of toppings, but I think a good value for the money. You can order ahead, but often the two people behind the counter are so overwhelmed with orders and long lines, that just getting their attention to grab your completed pizza is hard... they just don't look up while racing around the very small space. It's fun to watch them, like a well rehearsed choreographed dance. But the frenetic energy is not so fun. It would be helped if they just had one more person there during rush hours, to greet people, find out if your pizza is completed on the stack, rather than having to rudely jump the line and ask questions of these busy people.

I won't pretend that apizza is serving the sort of pizza I was served in Naples, Italy. But then,…read moreneither is (insert name of almost every pizza shop everywhere). What I will say is this: * apizza's pizzas are made to order, personal-sized, and ready in under 10 minutes; * the ingredients are fresh and creative; * the crust is very thin and goes well with the pizza; * the pizzas taste really good; and * all of them are priced under $10. On my first visit to this location I consumed my entire pizza in one sitting. On this visit, two of us each brought home half of our pizzas. The next morning I woke up to "these pizzas are great for breakfast too!". As I walked back out to the car following my visit to apizza I nodded at the salad place one door down saying "our meal would've cost twice as much there" and it would have. Is it "fast food"? Yes, but fast food that's in a different league from most. Good stuff this place is offering.

So, it has been a while since we were here, and things have changed - overall, for the better…read more We came at lunch time (about noon) but the place was not at all busy. A few folks outside some inside. This made ordering quick and easy, and the food was prepared quickly; a benefit for us, perhaps not for the business. The place is still attractive and clean, with plenty of tables outside and inside. I did not that, as my last visit, there is no shade really provided for the outside seating, save ONE small umbrella. Ugh - not sure what the issue is, and being it was a sunny day, we opted to sit inside as much as the patio called to us. The inside is nice, too, though, and there is easy access to the soda fountain machine and condiments. There are still self-ordering kiosks, large digital menus, and of course, you can also order through the app (even if standing inside!) or at the counter. We ordered a bit of each - side, main, and dessert! There was a portabella "'Shroom" burger (with a crisp-fried portobello mushroom filled with melted muenster and cheddar cheeses, topped with lettuce, tomato, and ShackSauce on a toasted potato bun), cheese fries, a mac 'n' cheese, chicken bites, and a Key lime shake, a special offering! Damn the calories, full taste ahead! The food was indeed prepared quickly and served hot. The Shroom burger was my favorite last time, and for taste and texture this time was also delicious and good. The cheeses inside were melty-gooey, and the mushroom crispy. It was, though, much smaller than I remember - it fit within my hand! A con, against the price, for what is a nice option for veggies or anyone wanting a change in their burger. The chicken bites were smaller than expected in size, more like nuggets, but tasty. The mac 'n' cheese was also tasty, but also a bit small for the price. The fries are always good, and in this case, you need to dig to the bottom early on to scrape some of the melted cheese that dripped down back onto the fries. Very yummy. But the best part was the Key lime shake, a flavor I just love (cheesecake is my favorite iteration of this flavor) but this milkshake satisfied me greatly. A little pricier than their everyday shakes, but how often so you find a unique flavor like this! A win! Overall, a solid 4-stars for food flavor and quality, and also for ambience and environment. Price wise, it was about $40 for two of us, so not a great bargain, but given the economy today I have the same financial shock at other places as well. Still, a nice treat and we left happy.

Cute ski decor, a gratis book with the full history of the town by the counter, and an adorable town mural, and importantly a customer bathroom. The place is spotlessly clean.

My medium sized yogurt and berries came to $13, but on reflection, I suppose I'm not surprised that is the going rate for fro-yo in Marin. They offer tiny dixie cups and free water, but I wish they were bigger --it can be a challenge to drink water through a thimble.

My husband and I decided to give this spot a try after getting many rave reviews not only on yelp but on Eater SF (or maybe it was SFGate?). Anyway, we arrived around an hour before close, most places in this area close at 9pm btw. We were greeted by the host who walked in from near the kitchen area. We decided to sit outdoors since the weather was pleasant. We found a table for two near the projector showing a muted black and white film on the brick wall. The chairs had blankets over them just in case it gets chilly at night. It was very thoughtful. I decided to order their special 3 course meal including a white wine ($45!). It was like they had their own restaurant week specials like SF but I don't believe that exists in Marin. The 3 course meal included a beet salad, pasta (it was the screw shaped kind) with Bolognese and a tiramisu which was my fav of all 3. The white wine was a bit on the sweet side. My husband had the pappardelle pasta with oxtail. That was a treat! I liked his dish more than mine but all of it was so much we had to take half home! The complimentary focaccia really pushed us over the edge. I would definitely come back to try their pizzas!

I began to eat lunch on the patio. this not so much because i like eating outside but the lovely holly usually served tables there... go figure. the food improved after a short period of adjustment, sometimes it lapsed but there were periods when if you wanted to see a menu in french, it was one of few, certainly, and best, perhaps, in marin... for what that's worth. then for various important reasons i completely forgot about the place, until a few weeks ago when i needed something new. here's the impression i came away with: get a reservation for sure on weekends. prepare to only understand only about half of what your dinner companion says because the tables are crowded and the room acoustics are terrible. pay attention to the european wines on the list because they're good and reasonably priced. the appetizers are well done, especially liked some kind of thing done with avacado of all things. i didn't like the cassoulet, the stew was crowded into a smaller kind of crockery with a huge piece of undercooked cabbage occupying almost half of the volume. the fish on the other hand was very good. service was very friendly, but not nearly enough for the number of diners, unless the problem was in the kitchen... slow maybe? overall, i'd say give it another try.
