Reviews for La Ginestra in Mill Valley, CA
Food, was cold, but flavorful. Looked pretty busy. I will admit, wasn't a fan of the seating, nor having to wait for my party to... be there before getting a seat but, which wasn't a seat after all. Having owned and worked at restaurants for over 20 years,that line of " we need your party to be here before seating you" is BS. There's no reason to not seat a party, especially if oneof the party is your waitresses ???? Read more
I miss this place. My parents started eating here regularly in the mid 80's before I was born. They brought me here often while... I was growing up, and to this day I have never found better pizza. The family who owns it are all lovely people. When theoriginal owner passed the restaurant on to his son, it was so amazing that he kept up the tradition and didn't change anything.Even the light up harlequins in bar have been there forever. I was just remembering how good this place is, telling my husbandall about it and my mouth still waters at the thought. Too bad I live 500 miles away, otherwise I would go there tonight. Read more
Never a bad meal here. Haven't been here in years and was not disappointed! Will dime here more often!!
Very attentive service and good advice from Paolo. Specials were seasonally appropriate and delicious. Orecchiette Pugliese, on... the full-time menu, was great. Best cheesecake I have had in years. I was taking a break from alcohol when I went, but the winelist looked full of gems at all price points, and the bartender sounded like he knew what he was doing. I?ll have to go back totake advantage of both soon. Read more
We ordered Eggplant Parmesan and veggie pizza. Food was anything but authentic Italian..quite bland. Veggies were fresh but... neither dish had much flavor. Read more
Authentic Italian restaurant. A family owned restaurant with good food and service. I had the linguine tutti mare and my husband... had veal piccata. Both well prepared. The good is reasonably priced and a good wine list. I highly recommend the restaurant. Read more
The place is in beautiful Mill Valley and was one of the best dinning experience I have ever had, our waiter was very friendly... and the owner greeted us at the door. The food was excellent. Read more
