   Food was delicious and service impeccable. I highly recommend the Boardroom for special occasions and/or a lovely evening meal.

   An amazing place to have in Novato. This is more in the vein of constructive criticism or description than negative feedback! Food (we both had filet, with different sides, desserts, and a soup) was generously portioned and good. I thought things may have been a tad over-salted, but the cook was great. The french onion soup was delicious, and the chocolate lava cake was too -- even after all the food that preceded it! When busy (and it was), you're a little cheek to jowl with other patrons. But there was a pianist and singer that night, and the general buzz and smallish tables give you a sense of privacy despite the proximity of others.

   Great place, service good, parking easy, however the Ruben sandwich made me a bit sick.

   Have always had great food at this restaurant. I do prefer it on the nights that there is no piano playing. The room is too small for the music and it is hard to hear a conversation.

   From the street it looks just like a strip mall. Once inside you are greeted with a step back in time. Service is GREAT!! Food is FANTASTIC!!

    The 1920's Chicago style restaurant Boardroom was fun yet fancy. Find the chandelier and piano. The lunch menu was reasonable for what you are getting, and I only wish I had eaten there on a Monday or Thursday...check the specials. I will return with more people so I can sit in the comfy looking booths. The service was impeccable and next time I will venture over to the Speakeasy bar. I had the pork chop, which was amazing, and my co-worker ordered the French onion soup (no cheese) and she said it was the best she's ever had.
