The service is pretty good, they are very friendly. I haven't sat to eat there, I always take my order to go. Out of all places to get chicken tenders in Marin, Tender Tenders in San Rafael is the top spot. From the first time I ordered last year til now when I want some chicken tenders Tender Tenders is the spot.

I just never noticed it until walking by and looking. So I went and super friendly and got the order with the Large combo 24 wings and two large sides. Large fries and Large chips. The fries were delicious and so were the chips. The chips are basically thin sliced crispy friends. So good! I got half mild Buffalo wings and Half Lemon pepper. The Lemon pepper was good but the buffalo was a bit sweet and greasy. I'll definitely come back but get a different flavor of wings. This place is a hidden gem!

One of the highest compliments I can give to a local restaurant like this is that the owner is…read morepassionate and cares about the food experience you have while you're dining there. Another is that the food always has really good texture, making everything so eminently satisfying to eat. Enter this small place in downtown San Rafael. As a wing guy, it's always nice to find a new solid wing place. And here, the attention to the customer experience is impossible to miss. You're going to be treated well, and the food has immensely satisfying crunch. Everything here that I've tried so far is made from scratch, and it's obvious. The chicken, despite being doused in sauce, isn't soggy at all, rather the wings just pop into your mouth. The fries are not to be outdone and taste fresh and crisp. I ate far too much here. It's clear that the owner has a passion for making delicious food and it's easy to see that love going into the quality you get. One of the best classic buffalo wings I've ever had.

The inside was clean but dated, Upon Entry I was immediately seated, The hostess was very was nice and was able to answer my questions on the menu. Ordered the dinner portion of the Chicken Katsu with rice and macaroni salad, Egg Rolls, and the Fried Gyoza. The Gyoza's came out first, These were really good as they weren't deep fried but pan fried with slightly crispy bottom with chewy top. The sauce that they give you with the Gyoza's went well along with the green onions. The Egg Roles came out next, They were good as well and freshly fried. The sweat and sour sauce went well with the rolls, wasn't too sweet but had a bit of spice as well. The Chicken Katsu plate we next, the Katsu was freshly fried which perfect as it keeps the breading from getting hard or to crunchy and the chicken juicy. The Katsu sauce went well with the chicken rice and macaroni salad as well. Overall I enjoyed my experience and will come back to try other items on the menu in the future. A bit of advice, parking is tough in downtown San Rafael, If you go during prime dining hours expect to have to look for parking if you're driving.

I was excited to find a Lao/Thai restaurant in this part of the Bay and had to try it after a day…read moreat the French Market. We ordered the Lao-style beef larb with tripe, Lao-style papaya salad, sticky rice, and the yellow chicken curry with jasmine rice. The restaurant was clean, service was okay, and our food came out quickly. The portions were generous. My partner really enjoyed the yellow curry, though I found it a little sweeter than I prefer. Growing up eating Lao food, I was hoping for a bit more authenticity. The beef larb could have used more fresh herbs and bitterness, while the papaya salad lacked some of the pungent, funky flavors that make Lao papaya salad so memorable. Both dishes were good, but they felt toned down for a broader audience. Overall, it's a solid spot with flavorful food and generous portions. I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu.

Embarrassingly for Marin, only two restaurants made the list--including Lou's. It definitely lives up to its reputation. First, yes, it takes calling often! I called on a Thursday and it literally took calling over 50 times to get past the busy signal. Once I got through, ordering was really easy. I was even able to pick my pickup time. If you can't get through, don't despair. At 6:15 when I picked up my order, people were still able to walk up and order, although only a few entree choices were left. Everything we had was just so flavorful. The fried chicken was the favorite, rhen the beef birria. But the fried shrimp (which was pretty spicy!) and herby roast chicken was also delicious.

One pizza allows a party of 3 two slices each, just enough after a generous salad portion. I also enjoyed my wine choice and can highly recommend the Valravn Cab-Sonoma Co.
