FLOODWATER

I LOVE this place!! Food, ambiance and drinks were all great! Finally a restaurant in Marin that serves delicious food late night. I am excited to go back soon.

It was fine. It's a little pricey for typical bar fare and it's not like the food was super high quality. It took a while for anyone working behind the bar to even acknowledge us, let alone give us menus. Once we finally got our menus, it's like suddenly we were visible and a bartender came over to take our orders, about ten seconds after we got them.

The food is just okay and a little on the expensive side. $18 for a hamburger and french fries that probably cost them no more than a $1 to actually make is a little ridiculous. If it was like top quality ground beef, sure. This was probably your basic chuck.

The fries had basically no flavor, which is a little mind boggling. I could see that they were seasoned, they just didn't have any flavor to them.

The baos were actually pretty good. The bread was soft and warm and the filling wasn't bad.

The cocktail and beer prices are about standard for a bar in the Bay area, so no real complaints there.

All in all, it was a rather forgettable experience and perfect for being paired with Holiday Inn. It's somewhere you go because it's not really possible to go anywhere else and everything is just ho hum and generic. Absolutely nothing about this place stands out.

The food & service were so awesome I was so surprised based upon some of the reviews which in my opinion & experience were way off. My wife and I had citrus salad incredible, matzo ball soup incredible, Reuben most tender corn beef I’ve ever had and special fries the best. All a 10.

Hit and miss on the food and service - it's new so maybe it'll get better... we really wanted it to be better as it seems like it could be really good...
Atmosphere is lively, modern and fun like a hip tavern (the main room - there's one weird section near the entrance that looks like a Denny's.. so don't sit in that section of you have a choice).
Vege burger, matzo soup and pizzas were great. Cheeseburger and salmon entrees were bland and boring compared to their descriptions on the menu. Cocktails good, wine list small but solid. Service not great.
For the price you'd expect better service and all the food to be good, but it's not there yet.

Just getting going, so it will be interesting to see how it is when it stops being the hot new place in town. That said, seems promising. The concept (upscale sports bar) feels like it fills an unmet niche in Southern Marin, the space has been nicely redone so it doesn't feel as barn-like, and the food we had was tasty and well prepared. Obviously a few links to work out (service is a little patchy) but could be a keeper. Worth checking out.
