Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Novato

The food and service were excellent. I will definitely be back.

Still the best deal in all of San Francisc and BEYOND!! Combined with great mixology by head barkeep Shar and veteran William, our hard working server, it’s hard to beat the mouth watering, juicy cuts of prime rib, cut and served right out of those silver carts by a master chef. There really is no restaurant that even comes close to this historic and iconic institution…….really HoPR is Numero Uno in California!!

We love everything about this restaurant. Will go back again and again.

Perfect dinner - delicious pasta, fish and burger meals thoroughly enjoyed by our party of 3. The service by our waiter Dickie was professional, delightful, attentive with fun humor too. His back up crew was efficient in serving as well as clearing. We had a most enjoyable evening at this great old time San Francisco restaurant and we look forward to returning hopefully soon.

Once again, it was a wonderful experience at Chianti. The food is very good, the marinara sauce is delicious, the wine list has plenty of good choices and is very reasonable and the people are very nice. Been going there for years and I can honestly say I always had a good experience and very good meals. They do a really good job hiring the staff there. The wait staff has always been very friendly, attentive and helpful. Has the feel of an old-time, NY family Italian restaurant. This falls under the category of hidden gem! Would highly recommend it.
