Best Restaurants for Quiet Conversation in Sausalito

First visit to China Live and what a delight! The perfect execution of the Dim Sum dishes made it a memorable eating experience.

My first omakase!! They were so welcoming and accommodating with dietary needs! My boyfriend and I went to celebrate Valentine’s Day and a year of us. Perfect place to spend a night for a special occasion. The chefs were perfectionists! The fish was so fresh and service was amazing! The experience was 10/10.

Wonderful experience at Mr Tipples - including terrific Dim Sum and wonderful music from the Emily Day Swingtet! Service was excellent and they accommodated early arrivals in the heavy rain.

My wife and I had an overall terrific experience at Paseo, dining at 7PM on a Wednesday night in February 2025 in the main dining room. The room was about half full, and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. There was pleasant chatter and soft background music, but, refreshingly, it was easy to carry on a conversation Our server, Maya, was cheerful, knowledgeable about the menu, and very efficient. She helped us select their house made Parker rolls, the night’s special crab cake (to share as a starter), the duck breast, and the pork chop. All were delicious, and the portions were generous. Quite by accident we were there on a “Wine Wednesday” which features many bottles at $36 and others hugely discounted. We chose a Pays d’OC Comtesse Marion Pinot Noir which went very well with our entrees. We were too fully for dessert, but the choices looked attractive. Maya took very good care of us which added to our appreciation of the meal. Highly recommended!

Love this places vibe, cocktails and staff are always great
