    Wonderful experience. Everyone was freindly attentive and service was timely and we were allowed to chill and enjoy the atmosphere and view of the bay and the city. We will be back.

    Absolutely amazing views. Had reservations for two at 6:45 pm and were seated at 7:15pm. Host was overwhelmed and people were stacked and lined up everywhere. Food was rather normal. Nothing bad nothing that memorable. Great place for views and a quiet dinner. Server was excellent and very fast. Just need a little more order and communication at host station and a bit more attention to the food.

    The Spinnaker is one of my favorite restaurants in Marine. I have been there many many times over the years. The host is always nice and present, the food is decent, the service is good and not to mention the spectacular view of the bay. I always booked my table in advance with the Open Table app to secure a table. I went there on February 16th. There was a line of people checking in and when I walked up to the host. An old lady with a portable breathing machine was sitting there. She kind of ignored us at first and then turned and said the tall gentlemen will return to take care of us. I told her my booking information when he returned, and she started looking at her computer and trying to find my reservation. After a quick search she told me she could not find my name. I pull up my Open Table app and show her my booking confirmation and she dismissed it and said “We’re not Open Table; this is not a confirmation, and she need to see the email confirmation. I quickly pulled up my email and showed it to her and she insisted she didn’t have my reservations. Again, she is annoyed and blames it on Open Table. After a little bit of back and forward when finally, she told the tall gentlemen to look at her computer for her because she cannot see!! How rude and arrogant! If you do not like your job, please go home. If you know you cannot do your job properly, please ask someone to assist you. I’m hoping she is not the owner of the restaurant because she acts like one. If so, I’m sorry, she seems miserable!

    We made a reservation for Valentine's Day about a month in advance. We went with a large party of 8, but figured it would not be an issue since we had made a reservation. Our reservation was at 7:45pm, checked in on time and we sat at our table close to 8:30pm. The host was not apologetic about the long wait, but rather seemed annoyed that we had a large group and had asked twice if our table was ready and we just didn't hear our names being called. It took about 15 minutes after we sat to meet our waiter and every step of the way was a wait after wait after wait. We had the Valentine's pre-fix menu which was a deal and the food was delicious, but it was hard to ignore the simple lack of service at this restaurant. This was our first time dining at this restaurant and we had chosen one of the busier days to eat, but a restaurant of this stature that has been around should not be struggling to seat their guests in a timely manner. We received no apology for the long wait and no sort of compensation. We had a reservation and we still waited close to 45 minutes to get seated after our reservation time. Overall, the experience and the pre-fix menu was good; however, the lack of attention and service was enough to thoroughly negatively impact our dining experience.

    Went there for Valentines Day and it was great. It was quite busy and the food did come out like it had been sitting for a while, even the dessert came melted (sundae) but it’s understandable when they’re so busy. Ambiance as always was romantic and relaxing.

    I made this reservation three weeks to a month in advance for Valentine’s Day. In the reservation notes, I specifically requested a table by the window. When we arrived, there was an open window table right next to us, but we were not seated there. I asked if we could switch, and the host or manager (not sure which) said they would check. When they returned, they told us it was a table for four, even though it was clearly a small two-top. Just a few minutes later, another couple was seated there. The only apparent difference? We’re a younger lesbian couple, and they were a straight couple. It certainly felt like that was the deciding factor. If you want the best table here, it seems you need to be straight. It’s disappointing to feel like we weren’t valued the same way as other guests, despite paying the same price.

    The Sausalito Summertime salad is really good, and their clam chowder is one of the best. Always a good experience. Make reservations to secure a window seat.
