Like a food court but you order from one kiosk. Scroll thru the limited menus for various resturants and place your order pay and watch the order status board... very accurate timing. There is a single unisex restroom down the long hallway to the right of the pickup counter. The bathroom is clean and spacious. I ordered the spicy extra combo chicken sandwich $15.00. Comes with a sandwich, can of soda and small coleslaw. The spicy chicken sandwich from Proposition Chicken is really good nice thick sandwich with a good amount of heat. The sandwich is THICK....had to unhinge my jaw. I just love the relish that went really well with the heat. My wife got the Tam Tam Rice's the Rich Pork Belly Tam with broken rice $16.00. The dish had many small side dishes. Tomato basil salad, pickled cabbage, Do Chua, and egg omelet. The rice is good. The pork belly is grilled and really smokey...very crisp and very flavorful... the only downside is the pork belly was a bit thin. read more

Even on a weekday afternoon, they're busy! I got a geisha's kiss from the sushiritto menu and a strawberry tea with boba from the boba guys menu. The geisha's kiss was fresh but I think it was missing that guacamole spread. The pearls in the boba were soft and chewy. Ample indoor and outdoor space for seating. I'll def be back! read more

What I love about Local Kitchens is the variety of food you can order from local restaurants! I love the idea of being able to mix and match your eats through Local Kitchens. From a burrito to pizza to a sushi burrito... your senses will be doing the most happiest dance from the bursts of flavors, textures and delicious aroma of the eats. I appreciate the concept of Local Kitchens-- providing a space for small/local businesses to work together while supporting one another. I ordered via their local kitchens app (the day before!!) and it was such a smooth, easy process! It's amazing how you can place an order in advance and still get your food right on time! *clapping emoji* because that is 5/5 stars for customer service. No but really, customer service went beyond expectations. We were greeted by Evan who was kind and patient with my huge order and made sure everything looked/ tasted good. They are celebrating their grand re-opening (July 2024)! The space was open and bright, clean with just the right amount of decorations; which were simple posters of the businesses. Overall, Local Kitchens is a foodie's dream! Dine in, take out or get your eats delivered. I suggest downloading the app and create an account to rack up some points! read more

Ended up here after a trip to Muir Woods. Have never been to a local kitchens before so took a bit of time to order. We got the How Mush-Room, Vietnamese Ice Coffee, Birria Tacos. Main seating area was clean, we ate outside. The big winner to me was the pizza read more

What a great concept, our favorite restaurants under one roof, and the menu options rotate periodically. They send surveys out to see what customers want. They also email coupon codes to try out new items. There needs to be legit dim sum on this side of town. For now, no complaints about boba, ice cream, Senor Sisig, The Melt, sushirrito (sushi burrito), Square Pie Guys, etc. Hopefully, there will be more diversity amongst the food options in the near future. Burmese and Korean BBQ would be nice on this side of the bridge. 'Til next time ~ cheers and see you on Yelp (SYOY)! read more

Well, it's just a contract kitchen with "Dash" written all over it. Not quality, but if you're in a pinch, I guess?

Sad this place is gone. Was super convenient and the food was great. Guess the ghost kitchen model is dead.

Food selection and quality and service is superb . The boba is the best in the business. The nopalito beef tacos are tremendous. The chicken sandwich and salad are delectable . The shrimp tempura roll is delicious. The smash burger is mouth watering . I literally go here every day Service is best in mill valley and CLEAN read more

Local Kitchens - Best matcha strawberry boba I've ever had ! There's something for the whole family . - Burgers Near Me - Mill Valley, California

My fiancé and I were in Millvalley and decided to check out local kitchens for their variety of food! We actually placed our order a day in advance for a time for pick up today and dined inside there restaurant. For our food, we ordered the sushiritto, pepperoni pizaza, amba chicken rice plate with pita bread, grilled mortadella sandwich, grilled chicken burrito and a strawberry matcha drink from boba guys. All the food was amazing! Each order was packed with a ton of flavor and was all cooked perfectly. My personal favorite was the chicken burrito because the tortilla was soft and contents meshed so well together. The strawberry matcha latte was the perfect dessert drink after our meal. You honestly can't go wrong with whatever food option you choose from, whether you're craving sushi or a pizza- you won't be disappointed. I like to think of local kitchens of a restaurant who does it all! We were greeted and served by Evan, who was super friendly and had exceptional customer service. The restaurant was nice and clean and they played light music for entertainment. There was plenty of parking including some 15 to 30 minute parking for a quick pick up. Definitely going to order from local kitchens when I'm in the area again! read more

I was looking for a place with vegan options in Mill Valley where I was meeting a friend before a hike. We both ended up getting the Green Falafel Hummus Plate. It was really good! Meals are labeled V or VG but I didn't know which one stood for Vegan vs Vegetarian. Why is this always so complicated? Can I get an AMEN? You choose your order on a screen. There was a guy there at the counter and I asked him if V or VG meant vegan, and he didn't know: "oh V is probably vegan." My darling non-vegan friend who is more assertive than me said "well we NEED to know. Can you go ask someone?" He said that the manager wasn't there and that was about as much as he could be bothered. So, I chose the dish I chose because it's both V and VG. I considered rating it less stars, but the food was really good, and I didn't want to dock it because they hired a doofus. But pssst, Local Kitchens, do a little education to your staff on what's up. Kthanksbye. read more

What don't they have? The best onion burger I've ever had and the best Chicago style pizza in the Bay Area.

FOOD: They server different types of food from different restaurants. It seems like the menu changes every week. I had one of the best falafels ever. The portions were perfect so was the sauce. I finished the whole thing. The hamburger I'll rate it a 8 including the wings ATMOSPHERE: It was a quiet places to eat. People would come in and out picking up their orders. You can also sit outside if you like. They have small tables that sit 2 ppl SERVICE: You place your on the iPads. You can also ask the chefs about the food and they will place the order for you. They were kind and helpful PARKING: There's enough parking for everyone in the plaza. You don't have to worry about finding a spot VEGAN: Yes they do have vegan options read more

Local Kitchens - Hong Kong tea - Burgers Near Me - Mill Valley, California

I ordered the Griddled Mortadella ($13.45), which came with thinly sliced mortadella, Tay's hot mustard, salt & vinegar chips, shredded lettuce, mayo, and American cheese on toasted Pullman bread. To accompany it, I had a Matcha Latte ($6.10). The restaurant features a unique concept with several dining options under one roof, though the expansive menu can feel a bit overwhelming. While the meal was decent, nothing truly stood out. Having been to their standalone location before, I found the quality there noticeably better. On the bright side, the staff were friendly, and the space was clean. If you're into trying a range of different dishes, this could be an interesting spot, but it didn't leave a lasting impression for me. read more

Local Kitchens in Mill Valley is now open in the Alto Shopping Center, next door to the UPS Store. The Alto Center is the shopping center with the Whole Foods Market and the Post Office. Local Kitchens @ Mill Valley is the first Local Kitchens in Marin County. It currently offers 8 menus. It's a variety of foods such as- burgers, sandwiches, sushi burritos, salads, fried chicken, pizza, pasta, ice cream and drinks. I have reviewed all the Local Kitchens in the SF Bay Area, and their menu can change at anytime. Local Kitchens @ Mill Valley is somewhat small. It has a small indoor dining area, some tables outside, and a restroom. Most orders are pickup or delivery. A status board on the wall can tell you if your food is ready. You can place orders using ordering stations in the lobby, the website, or the Local Kitchens App. When your food is ready, you simply ask the counter person and he/she will give you your order. Napkins, utensils, and sauces are available at the counter. To be clear, this is not a ghost kitchen. It's like a self-service micro food hall. There will be a person at the front counter for customer service. When I was there at around 530pm on a Sunday, there were two people cleaning and wiping down tables. The location is currently open until midnight. So, it's a good location. Lots of free parking, and it's pretty close to the freeway. The key thing to remember is....now you know there's restaurant that's open until 12-midnight, they will cook to order, and you pay electronically. So you can place an order, and go pick it up. read more

Can't believe they got rid of The Melt. It was the main reason I came here. Disappointed. read more

Although I have been here before and loved it, I was thrilled to see many more options. We selected chef's onion burger and the proposition chicken sandwich along with boba teas and completed with complimentary cookies! Everything was excellent. We appreciated the local store manager's suggestions and answering many questions to help us pick. So good! Will continue to come here when in the area. read more

Local Kitchens - Grand re-opening sign and entrance. - Burgers Near Me - Mill Valley, California

What a GREAT concept. I have now been here twice and tried Boba Guys and Square Pie Guys. Both are not as good as their SF locations, BUT it's soooooo nice to have access to something like this when you are with a group of people that can't decide what they want. It's a large step above a "food court" with the same amount of choices. Digital ordering, text when ready, etc. I love how they embrace technology, introduce convenience, and give us a taste of yum from the other side of the bridge. read more

I've had some good meals from here (Nopalito, Orens Hummus), but most recently I got Sweet Onion Burger yesterday (SOB burger) for myself and my boyfriend, and we both immediately started having a very upset stomach right after. We didn't eat anything else prior to this burger yesterday, so it couldn't have been anything else. Unsure if it's just limited to this burger or what it was, but definitely will not be returning read more

I went there for lunch today and had the Sweet Onion Burger. Wow, the sauteed onions provided a great sweetness, and it was probably the best 1/4 pound burger I've ever had. read more

This spot is awesome! We were doing some work in town and found this spot online, I'm always skeptical of these kind of counter service/multiple menus type situation (LA has some and they are ran terribly). Not the case in this amazing establishment, the manager and all the workers in the kitchen are still very attentive, checking in on how you're doing and available for questions. We had such a good experience we came back for a second day in a row. Beef burrito was awesome, spicy chicken sandwich hit the spot, and the fries were seasoned perfectly. The Vietnamese coffee and matcha boba were also great! Next time we are back in town we will for sure be back as it's the quality and quickness we enjoy for our lunch hour. read more

This place is great. Everyone in the family can order a different type of food, prices are reasonable, food is delicious, and it is convenient and quick. I usually get a grilled cheese with bacon from the Melt. Parking is super easy and it's just off the freeway. read more

In theory I thought for certain we'd like Local Kitchens as a creative option for food delivery in Mill Valley. In practice it was pretty disappointing. The idea of multiple restaurants under one roof came to life during the the creativity and business realities of the pandemic, and in theory it's a great idea. Different dishes from different excellent spots all prepared under one roof, here called a "mini food hall." We downloaded their proprietary app and were off and running. But then when placing the order it looked like dinner delivery was still 2 hours away -what? That's unusually long. When it arrived, our dinner from Local Kitchens was cold and subpar. I've eaten at Oren's in the city, and the chicken and hummus plate here was a pale comparison. Each dish we ordered averaged $24 a plate, including our grilled cheese sandwich from Melt. Beyond value for the price, it took two hours from order to delivery (on a weekday) so not on par with a Caviar or Uber Eats. This is typically longer than I'm willing to wait. Local Kitchens didn't change the delivery game for us, or provide us with new options to add to our delivery repeats, unfortunately. I really wish that it had. One upside: late night food delivery and pick up is new to the area (up to 12 am.) read more

I've ordered the promotional SOB burger at local kitchens twice and it does not disappoint. Great concept and well executed. I hope they keep the burger on the menu permanently. read more

Really good experiences both times I've been here. They made it really easy to make modifications to my order, and the staff were friendly each time. The only thing I wish they had was more seating, but I understand this is more of a "grab 'n go" model. All around great experience tho! read more

Ordered here for the first time today, and it won't be the last. Love the concept! There are 9 restaurants to choose from under one roof. We ordered ahead on the website for pick up. I was miffed that a $5 tip was added to my bill. Tips should be voluntary. We got Oren's Hummus and Proposition Chicken. The fried chicken was delicious! The hummus, Israeli salad & pita were terrific. The beef kebab could be more flavorful. The included sauces were spicy and hot, but didn't have enough flavor. Looking forward to trying some of the different restaurants on our next visit! read more

Local Kitchens - a tray of fried food and a sandwich - Burgers Near Me - Mill Valley, California

Great place for a variety of food offerings! Friendly service, nice atmosphere, and delicious food!

Was surprised to find Square Pie Guys on Doordash when we were out here in North Bay, San Rafael. Was super excited because this location is open until midnight. When the food arrived, it was not the same quality as pizzas ordered from their original location in SF. The pizza lacked toppings and the presentation was so messy. The Szechuan wings were unseasoned and I ordered extra cilantro cream sauce and received all ranch dressing. I've ordered from the SQP in SF at least 50 times and never had any mistakes with my orders. Sounds like in this case, I gave up quality for a taste of it here in North Bay. Sucks because I told everyone that it was one of the best pies available in the Bay... what a let down this location was. read more

I originally left Local Kitchens a review on Google the first time I went. Things were good except for the tomato soup for The Melt. On my google review I mentioned they don't give a full cup of soup. I go back to Local Kitchens again for a melt and tomato soup... yet again they don't give a full cup of soup. This time I got half a cup of soup..Not sure why they like to skimp on the soup. They're always friendly and helpful but I always come back disappointed with a small amount of soup.... read more

Better... but still not great. We tried the local kitchens in Novato a couple weeks ago and had a terrible sandwich there. We gave this mill valley location a try, thinking it might be a better experience, and sure the food was better, but it still did not taste like senior sisig. The proportions were off (half the burrito was lettuce) and the sweet potato fries were cold by the time we opened them in the car a minute later. $21 dollars for this meal is just outrageous. I can't see how this concept will make it in the future. Good luck but we aren't coming back again. read more

I've been to a couple of local kitchens and this is my favorite so far. The food was ready quickly, online ordering is so easy on the app (you can also order on an ordering pad when you get there). The food was very good, I got Oren's and my friend got a grilled chicken proposition chicken salad. We shared fries that were really good. We were both very happy with our food. The interior is clean, which is the case with all local kitchens I've been in. They have a couple tables inside and outside. A huge bonus to local kitchens for being amazing because I actually made my order for a local kitchens in a different city on accident, was able to text customer service (mind you it was past 5pm on a Saturday) and I got a response immediately and the rep cancelled and refunded my order and was friendly. I love that you can order items across different restaurants in there. If you have a group of people who don't all feel like eating the same thing this place is the perfect option since it's a cloud kitchen for a bunch of different restaurants. You can get everything from appetizers to ice cream here. We will be back to this location for sure. Gluten, vegetarian, and vegan options available. read more

We were looking to eat a burger at a restaurant that we had never eaten at. We found the Local Kitchens in Mill Valley. We both ordered their cheese burgers. I added a second patty to my burger. I also ordered their garlic fries and a strawberry boba drink. We burgers were delicious, juicy and messy! But a great burger is always messy! Their garlic fries were very tasty and crispy. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful with the menu. The restaurant was clean and very upbeat! I highly recommend this establishment for a great burger. We'll try something different as there were about six different chefs that have their food served there, read more

My favorite place to get food from in Mill Valley. 10/10. Nice people. Very clean and fast service.

Ordered the turkey sandwich from the Turkey and the Wolf menu and sure didn't get anything close to what was pictured! Undoubtedly the worst turkey sandwich I've ever eaten! The turkey was paper thin, very processed, with a pretty wet consistency. Whatever it was, it neither tasted nor looked like what we call turkey, and what was also in the sandwich was also pretty sad. Certainly any restaurant with the name "turkey" in it should be providing the real thing. And, further, knowing this was representing a very well-known, and very reputable New Orleans restaurant was a pretty major disappointment! read more

Had the chance to try the Thai options today. Curry( vegetarian and the chicken) steamed rice and wings. Excellent all around. Spice level was just right for me, though a little spicy for a couple of my co-workers. (They need to toughen up ;) ). Friendly staff with great recommendations will keep you coming back for more. Thank you local kitchens! Looking forward to the next lunch experience. read more

Actual rating: 4 stars. But I so love this idea, and OPEN UNTIL MIDNIGHT (ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!?!?), and they just added Senor Sisig? No way I wasn't giving it the full five. So why the 4 actual? Two reasons, both so subjective that there's a good chance you won't care about 'em :) 1) Not all the food is great, and 2) the app won't let you add a custom tip, just a percentage (pet peeve of mine). Oh, and there's no tip jar on the counter. What I've had so far: From The Melt: Meltburger (fantastic), Sicilian Chicken (way too much cheese-to-chicken ratio, would not get again, or maybe would remove one of the cheeses, and yeah, I know the place is called the MELT) From Senor Sisig: Tosilog Burrito (oh, that Filipino sweet pork!) From Oren's Hummus: Pita Falafel (sooo good, and cooked to perfection) From Wise Sons: The Purist (pastrami sandwich... which I now see isn't on the menu anymore..? It was good, but not great, so I won't miss it, but hmm...) From Fiorella: Nonna's Meatballs (these were only so-so, and I wouldn't order them again... but the Mill Valley location looks they dropped Fiorella in its entirety, so clearly the line-up is fluid) Have yet to have anything from the Proposition Chicken menu (next time for sure!) nor Sushiritto (their stuff usually sells out before closing). The Milk Bar cookies et al are kinda too candy-sweet for me, and I get that they only wanna sell the Humphrey Slocombe ice cream in pints (probably kills with delivery orders), but that's okay, as I'm still slightly over-ordering non-dessert stuff anyway to try lots of things. Oh, ha, I've only ever eaten stuff here, at the place. They have a nice handful of tables outside (5-6) and a couple inside (2-3), with a somewhat less-than-ideal counter space, as well. The bathrooms are big and clean, and they have free self-serve water at the counter. And a pretty great rewards program. If one of these opened down in SoCal near my place, I might be in trouble :) read more
