They got pretty crowded. Definitely not for the tech bro, but if you're a Midwest menace like me, this is the place to be. I enjoyed it a lot. It was definitely locals and young crowds in our twenties, a couple of OGs. I thought it was a good vibe and would definitely come back here. Definitely on my secret spots. I don't think it's for everybody, but if you're someone who has been in the bar scene and into a Big Ten school kind of vibe, this is it.

Wow. Just wow. We just moved to the neighborhood, so this one genuinely disappoints me. I want our…read morelocal businesses to thrive, and I fully expected this to become a place we'd come back to regularly. Saturday afternoon, casual drinks. After a couple of beers, I was thinking about switching to a martini and playfully asked the bartender, "How are your martini skills?" That was it. Instead of taking it in the lighthearted spirit in which it was intended--or even simply saying she didn't appreciate the question--the bartender reacted as though I'd said something deeply offensive. She walked away visibly upset and refused to serve me. What made the experience particularly strange was what happened next. The other bartender came over to find out what was going on. I explained exactly what I'd said and that there was no insult or disrespect intended; I was literally just opening a conversation about ordering a martini. Rather than defusing an incredibly minor misunderstanding, she doubled down, insisted that my question was somehow inappropriate, and reinforced the refusal to serve me. At that point, I left. I've spent plenty of time in bars and restaurants, and I can't remember another experience where such an innocuous interaction was interpreted with this much hostility. People misunderstand each other sometimes. Professional hospitality means giving a customer a reasonable benefit of the doubt, communicating like an adult, and resolving a minor misunderstanding--not immediately assuming ill intent and escalating it. What concerns me most is that this wasn't one bartender having an off moment. Both bartenders independently chose escalation over hospitality, which makes me wonder whether this reflects a broader culture problem. As a new neighbor, that's especially disappointing. I genuinely want the businesses in this neighborhood to succeed. But hospitality requires a baseline level of professionalism, emotional intelligence, and generosity toward customers. Based on this experience, I won't be returning.

Quick heads up: I am on the tarmac and didn't have plans of eating here. After a few minutes of…read moresetting my stuff down, I was greeted by the cook, John, who offered me some food and water. It was a slow day, and the food didn't seem all that complicated, so I accepted. Even with no staff, John cooked me a burger, gave me some chips, and handed it off to me. The couch was soft and pillows were plush. I was initially on the fence about accepting a free meal, but I am glad now that I was welcomed into such a vibrant atmosphere. The hospitality is a big plus. The crowds can get big in the evening, so I suggest making reservations ahead of time. The view of the Golden Gate Bridge is the big highlight as well as looking at the king fishers and blue herons. I wish they would add some aquariums. Would be a nice touch.

The lady behind the bar, I failed to get her name was very sweet and friendly. We each ordered a drink and a burger and she did it all! I ordered the regular burger and a mock tail made out of club soda and pineapple juice. The drink was recommended by the bartender and I enjoyed it. We had a great time here with fantastic views of the GG bridge and the Sausalito Marina. I am definitely going to come back more frequently for the great service and views!

I really wanted to like the 2 AM Club. It should be a great spot to catch a game and grab a drink…read more I showed up during the NFC Championship game, so the place was packed. I sat right at the bar, and it took 30 minutes for one of the bartenders to even acknowledge I existed. When she finally took my order, she forgot about it and came back later to ask if I had ordered. Eventually I got my drink, paid her in cash, and left a tip. She came back again asking me to pay. I reminded her that I had already paid cash (and hadn't received my change). This was the most attention I got over the 4 hour game. That said, the bartender wasn't too busy to serve the locals at the counter multiple times, chatting and laughing extensively with the regulars who were passing around homemade cupcakes or sharing plates of food they'd ordered from the Mexican restaurant next door. If you're not already part of the in-crowd here, you might find yourself waiting a while.

I visited on 4/11 for a birthday party and 4/12 for their weekly salsa lesson…read more The food is wonderful. The polenta is one of the best I've ever had--slightly crunchy on the outside and creamy on the inside. The side dish version comes with mushrooms. The flavor is absolutely delicious. I also chose the grilled Salmon Grenoblesse, which was perfect. It was served with the scrumptious polenta without the mushrooms, but added asparagus. They customized for me their Mousse al cioccolato (chocolate mousse) with warmed berries. The staff is very busy but they are friendly and accessible. It's a nice-sized dance floor, but because I believe it's concrete I got a sore back the second night with different shoes.

I missed a lot of the show because he was blocking the view. I'm vegan and I asked about some of the menu items. His response was clear, but very snotty. I wanted to say, "c'mon. I am just asking about the menu. Be gracious." I ordered a beer, which never came. So, I asked again... and it never came. When I received the bill, they were both on the bill, as was a glass of prosecco which I never ordered. When I mentioned that I never got the beer he said, "You could have asked again." What? Long story short, they messed up the bill three times. Not going back.

I reserved a table for us being that it was a friday and on a holiday weekend. We arrived early so…read morethat we could hopefully sit down earlier but they didn't have my reservation. The hostess was really nice and she said no worries we can get you a table. There was only two of us so that's probably why it wasn't a problem. We sat down and right away they brought us water to the table. Our waiter came over shortly afterwards to see if we wanted drinks. We ordered a couple glasses of wine and the smoked wings and wedge salad to start. Our wines came out right away and then our wings and salad. It was pretty quick considering they looked pretty busy. Of course the wines were delicious (Zin, Pinot Noir). The salad was pretty basic wedge but good and they made it for two which was good. The wings were cooked perfect, just enough smoke on them, and a little crispy. For our entree we ordered the Ribeye to split between us. The ribeye came out not to much later, it looked good. They also split that for us so that was really nice. The Ribeye was cooked perfect (med rare), a good grill marks on it, great seasoning on it. It came with a herb butter and some kind if dipping sauce as well. Both were really flavorful but the herb butter was the best. Also, the mini baked potato was delicious as well. The steak didn't even need any sauces because the seasoning flavor was already there. For dessert we ordered sticky toffee pudding. It was the best Sticky Toffee pudding I've ever had. I wanted to lick the plate dry. Kiudos. The service was pretty good throughtout the dinner which was nice. I thought they wouldve comped the dessert since it was my girlfriends birthday but they didn't but that's ok.

Loved this place! We…read morefound this place through online reviews and decided to check it out! The ambiance is amazing where you can be seated on the patio or indoors at a table or at the bar. I would say that it is a bit more upscale in terms of attire that should be worn and is not casual dining. When we arrived, we were quickly seated and given time to look over the menu and hear about the day's specials. There was a great selection overall and it was a good mix of seafood and non seafood options. Service was a bit slow despite the amount of staff which is why I am removing a star, but honestly I would rank it a 4.5 if yelp gave that option. Our appetizers came out quite quickly but afterwards it took a while for the main course to come out. The staff were very nice though and were easily approachable. Of all the food that we ordered, I have to say my favorite was the burrata plate. My least favorite had to be the potatoes or Arrosto, which was unfortunate as I love to eat potatoes. It was just bland and was lacking salt. But I believe this was more of an anomaly as the rest of the food we ordered was perfect as it came. Overall I love this place a lot. It is definitely saved as a favorite in my book! If you are in Sausalito I would 100% recommend trying Poggio! Perfect for a date night or with the family! (They are also kid friendly with a kids menu available)

Ambiance is 5 stars, fire pit, outdoor seating, great location. Good wine list. Menu is pasta, pizza, salads, and pasta. The pizzas are thin crust and "fancy". They feature things like feta cheese or carmalized onions. We all agreed that the crust was amazingggg. But it was so thin and floppy that ingredients just slid off. But here's a hot tip- the kid menu pizzas are totally full size pizzas, which the waiter failed to mention. So 1 cheese pizza could easily feed 2-3 little kids. We ordered one for each kid and went home with a TON of cheese pizza leftovers. The zucchini fries are tasty but served with an aoli that tasted like straight mayonnaise. Dinner for 4 , plus tax and tip came to $150. We're going with a solid 3 stars. An overall decent experience, but nothing to get too excited about.
