Mill Valley Kitchen is a Northern California inspired restaurant that features local, organic, and farm to table ingredients. The menu changes with the seasons, though staple dishes like the Miso Glazed Seabass and bison burger are available year round. Located at the intersection of Excelsior Boulevard and France Avenue in the Ellipse building, it's the perfect location for after work happy hours, family dinners and spur of the moment Sunday brunches. Mill Valley Kitchen has something for everyone. The bar lounge offers a large selection of new and old world wine, inventive craft cocktails and local draft beer while the restaurant and patio provide a comfortable, laid back environment for special occasions and casual outings alike. Large groups are welcome and private dining is available as well.

    I wish you’d kept your flatbread that was crispy instead of the current doughy pizza.

    We loved going to early dinner on Saturday. Not yet crowded, we got attentive service and enjoyed special entrees like the grilled shrimp and avocado tacos. The blackened sea bass was outstanding.

    The restaurant’s appearance, service and overall vibe were great. The food, however, was disappointing. We have enjoyed Mill Valley Kitchen in the past and want to keep enjoying it, but a great overall ambiance is not enough to overcome mediocre food. We’ll try it again at some point, hoping they can turn things around.

    We have eaten at Mill Valley Kitchen several times before so when we were planning to meet with friends for lunch we suggested Mill Valley Kitchen. They also really enjoyed the food and the ambience. Our server was very good as well. We will return!

    Lovely atmosphere, attentive service, good food. We enjoyed the hummus app and I ordered my favorite thing on the menu, the sea bass. Excellent, as always. I’m always happy to see it is still on the menu!
