    Come for the famous Chinese chicken salad, stay for the comfy ambiance. Sometimes the line is super long, but if you know what you're getting, go and grab it. Closed on Monday and Tuesday, also closes early. Always a great place to have brunch and spend the day in San Anselmo. Take a stroll around the Holidays, go to the local library, and check out the shops. Friendly neighborhood, dog-friendly, great vibes - so lucky to have Comforts nearby. 'Til next time ~ cheers and see you on Yelp (SYOY)!

    You'll find Comforts on the main street in downtown San Alselmo. As others have stated, they are known for their Chinese chicken salad. So as a dutiful Yelper, of course I had to try it! When I was there, it looked like they were renovating the patio area so unfortunately the windows that adjoined the patio area were covered. Nonetheless, the ambiance is light and airy with interesting light fixtures. Prepare yourself for lots of chewing. The salad has all the elements of a good meal: protein, fiber, yumminess. Alas I bit into something hard and pokey. A clump of the rice noodles that would normally get deep fried into crispy and airy goodness had missed the frying pot. Instead it ended up embedded into the roof of my mouth. Ouch! Eating this could be an occupational hazard. Thankfully the rest of my salad was fine. The restaurant adjoins a deli area where you can buy said salad in bulk to take home. They also sell the dressing separately. Would be interested to try out other items from their menu next time.

    Classic. I was here 40(?) years ago when their infamous Chinese chicken salad came in the scene. My grandma brought me. It may have been the first time I realized salad could be delicious enough to be the first choice for a meal Came today because we were in the area and felt like salad. Nostalgia aside, and now that I'm a "foodie" and used to awesome salads , I can say the salad is still great. It has a good balance of almonds and chicken taste and the chicken is cut about the same size as the nuts. I'd like some cabbage added for health. But yeah, a good salad Bathroom grade: A. 2 single serve rooms. Clean and bright with nice smelling soap

    Really enjoyed the Chinese chicken salad. Service was quick and friendly. It can get busy, but I never felt rushed to finish my meal. I'd happily return.

    One of my favorite parts of this shop/restaurant is the location!!! Down town San Anselmo is soo charming. Perfect for exploring and then stopping at comforts for a bite. We got the Chinese chicken salad as raved about on the internet (disclaimer: I don't love Chinese chicken salads I think they are good but like other salads better) BUT it was a really good chicken salad! The stand out dish is the French toast!! Pecan crusted and filled with some delicious custard! This made the meal worth it! They only serve breakfast until 12 btw! So crunchy and delicious. Service was fine. Nothing stand out but not a bad experience. We are outside and it was lovely. Indoor and outdoor options. Definitely will come back for the French toast!

    If you want a delicious lite lunch, go to Comforts! I had one of the best "to go" Chinese chicken salad packaged in a sweet little box!

    I didn't think there was any way to improve on French Toast. I was quite wrong. OJ is fresh and the fruit is always ripe.

    Ask the Community - Comforts

    Do they still make chocolate covered sunflower seeds? 🌻 🍬

    Good question, I picked up a bag last time in, but that was awhile ago

    Does anyone know if Comforts cooks their burgers over open flame / grill? I definitely prefer flame…

    I prefer mine the same way and enjoy their burgers. Haven't been in the kitchen, but based on eating experience, I say open flame. I'll go this week and eat one to be sure :)
