    We were looking forward to our dinner on the bay at Spinnaker. Our reservations were for 7:30 and we were a little late, but there were only two other tables that were occupied ; it concerned us. The bouillabaisse was reasonable … the rice below my haddock was delicious, but the fish was overdone. The vegetables were delicious.  if we were in Sausalito again, we might give it a try.

    This is our favorite restaurant, especially for the calamari and the ambience. The view of the lights and City are just like no other great place for girls night or a date night out.

    I've been going to The Spinnaker for over 50 years, and it is THE defining restaurant in Sausalito IMHO. :-) This perfectly-preserved mid-century-modern time capsule is built on its own pier with the best views of Tiburon and San Francisco in all of Sausalito. The menu is classic San Francisco seafood. Think Fisherman's Wharf, but elevated by at least a few magnitudes. In all the years I've come here, I never once had an issue with the food. It's ALWAYS tasty. That said, the service here can be spotty: You may find yourself waiting quite a while to flag down a waiter. This has been the exception, not the rule, for me. I need to visit The Spinnaker more often, then ride the ferry back into SF!

    We had a reservation, but they were able to seat us slightly early. Very nice table next to a window with a gorgeous view of San Francisco. There was a lot of variety in the menu. We were with a vegetarian and there were several veg options. Our waiter was polite and attentive. An absolutely wonderful place to meet old friends a have lunch!
