    My best friend and I went here for an early Holiday celebration. She had lobster and I had the scallops! Everything was really good and the seafood was fresh. Service was good but a little slow so not a problem. The holiday drinks were nice and they have an extensive wine list. This is a local favorite for special occasions in Sausalito! We will always be back year-round!

    Poggio is my go-to restaurant. It never disappoints. The food, the service, the ambiance are all top notch. My return guests from out of town always request at least one meal at Poggio. First timers have remarked, “if only we had a restaurant like this back home”. Well done!

    We are Piatti regulars. After suffering through major attitudinal service for brunch at Farmhouse over the weekend, it was so refreshing to have real, friendly and competent service at Piatti. Everyone is on the same team, smiles and pays attention. Simple principles of hospitality! And it feels warm and genuine. Not imposed. Comfort Italian dinner with friends. Loved the montepulciano by the glass paired with the chicken puttanesca. Warm and fuzzy on a wet rainy night. Keep it up!
