Beautiful decor inside (downstairs) and comfortable, cozy patio with fantastic views of Angel Island and SF. Food was beautifully presented and tasty. A bit pricey for lunch but of course, that atmosphere and view come at a cost. Very lovely experience for a local Marinite's day-off treat. Probably benefited from an only moderately warm autumn weekday in very late October such that crowds and tourists were in short supply.

Walked into this charming and quaint bistro in an upscale neighborhood. The three of us were celebrating a birthday. We ordered from a special "School Night" menu. Good portion sizes and good value. Meal came with complimentary warm bread. All of us had the endive salad...consisted of endives, mixed greens, blue cheese, pecans, pears and pomegranate in vinaigrette. Very Refreshing! Lingcod Meuniere filet includes sauteed potatoes, green beans, parsley, capers and croutons in a brown butter sauce. Fish prepared perfectly, beautifully plated, tasty and flavorful. Lamb Shank entree with kidney beans, was lean and tender with meat falls off the bone. It was juicy and full of flavor. Our choice of dessert was the delectable Apple Tarte Tatin which came in layers of thin apple slices on puff pastry with a scoop of vanilla ice cream added. Apple Tarte Tatin was light and enjoyable. Not too sweet. Food was AWESOME!! Waitstaff was warm and welcoming. Servers were attentive and very efficient. Our water glasses were topped off during our entire meal. Will definitely be back!

Great place for large parties. The original reservation was for 15 but arrived with 13 which then went back to 15, and the staff made that all seamless. Everyone there was very nice and professional, and we picked one of the banquet menus and some dim sum items and everything was absolutely delicious and the presentation was beautiful . There was more than enough food for all, and we even took some home. Thank you, Harborview for a wonderful lunch!

Incredible meal and experience. The food was delicious and good portions. The service was even better. All the staff were attentive without hovering, refilled glasses of water and wine efficiently, brought a table wedge for a rocking table, and made us feel welcome and looked after. Before meal even ended I had already suggested it to a friend for a great night out.

    Insalata's never disappoints and my husband thinks they have the best burger in Marin County. Their Fattoush salad has gotten a little pricey at $25 but is still so delicious. It's huge and could easily be split. Service is prompt and courteous and they have a menu that's hard to choose from as there are so many mouth-watering choices. We love to visit Insalata's and plan to return there often.

    I could not recommend this restaurant enough, the cozy back patio right by the fireplace makes it inviting and enjoyable for everyone. Quiet and enjoyable for all groups. Reasonable prices and excellent food and drinks! The winner of the show, was Svetlana… SHE makes this the place to be. Her kindness, recommendations and enthusiasm will bring us back again and again. Sincerely looking forward to another visit very soon! Thank you for your hospitality, they are damn lucky to have you!
