Overall our experience was really good. We encountered a glitch when checking in, they did not have that our reservation was for a birthday celebration. I had to bring it to their attention and immediately we were seated as VIP for the celebration.. There was also a party with children which were a bit over engertic but calmed down about 20 minutes to being seated. The parents were apologetic after they ate. Linda was our wait person and she provided excellent service to us and made sure our son was acknowledged for his big day. It has been a while being there but clearly a tourist attraction and dining pleasure.

Always great experience here. Came in on a Monday evening, 3 adults + 1 well-behaved baby. The staff was amazingly accommodating and considerate and interacted with our 7 month old throughout our meal. The Parkerhouse rolls were amazing per usual. Other standouts were the quail, deer Wellington, and the branzino.

What a pleasant surprise to find Paseo, in Mill Valley. It is hidden on a paseo (hence, the name), off the street, but well worth finding this gem. Personally, finding a restaurant that serves a farm grown local Pork Chop with the bone in is a success, but to find one that serves a Chop perfectly cooked, hot on arrival, and absolutely delicious is wonderful. My wife and family ordered the Seared Ahi, and the Mac and Cheese--both were exceptional. And the service was first rate--very attentive. We even met the wonderful chef, Anjelica (sp?), who was warm and wonderful.
