    Can’t believe the first four or five tables against the wall are filled with table cloths, napkins, menus, riff raff storage. These tables are in the main dining room. Totally bizarre and embarrassing. Food was mediocre and wait was way too long between courses. Fish overcooked and strawberry shortcake was horrible. No strawberries and whipped cream was like cool whip. Never going back.

    Experiece was perfect from the valet parking to the dessert. Daniel is a great waitperson and the petrale sole and the crab cakes were perfect, as was the tiramisu. It was a great window table without any glare, which was perfect with the foggy days we have been having.

    While the views of the bay and city skyline are stunning our dinner experience was subpar. The restaurant was freezing cold in which we had to request to turn the heat up several times. The food is just mediocre at best. Service was good, but not great. Several tables in the dining room as set up as prep stations where employees fold napkins, etc. seems a bit odd to have customers see that while dining.

    Anniversary lunch. We got there a little early and was lucky enough together a table at the window. Fog had lifted and the views are spectacular. The seafood grill and clam chowder was delicious. We come a few times a year and have never been disappointed. Our waiter Jose C. Was very attentive.

    We are long time fans of the Spinnaker & decided to take our friends to the Spinnaker because they said they had not eaten there in a very long time. Since it is late December, we wanted to enjoy the views while we enjoyed drinks & conversation before dinner. I booked a 3:30PM reservation. We got a great table in the corner window. Wow! Pelicans, gorgeous light on the water, a couple seals in the water, made quite a show. We told our “extremely professional” waiter that we wanted to enjoy drinks & conversation for a while before we ordered food. He understood that we did not want to be rushed & he was fantastic. We had many important business topics to discuss and our waiter was sensitive not to interrupt our discussion. (I love it when a waiter stands nearby until we have finished our discussion.) 5 stars all around. Valet parking is always a good thing thing. Food is always wonderful! The Spinnaker is a Gem!!!!

    We had dinner last Saturday night with a long standing reservation to watch the lighted boat parade. There was a power outage in Sausalito, and nearly every other restaurant was forced to close. The Spinnaker pulled off a great dinner under very challenging circumstances. It was an amazing performance by the kitchen staff and servers. All our food came out hot and tasting great.
