"The bread is freshly baked, and every sandwich I've had here has been excellent. My only issue is that the staff isn't very welcoming, and the prices are a bit steep for a basic sandwich. The woman who seems to be the manager or owner is quite unfriendly; she never smiles and always rushes you at the payment counter. However, the cashier is very nice and friendly. She speaks Spanish, which is incredibly helpful when I bring some of my employees who don't speak any English. She's the only person who's ever tried to have a conversation with me. I often wonder how she copes with the other woman hovering over her. Despite the service issues, I keep returning because the food is fantastic. The guys preparing the sandwiches are very efficient, and while the guy who takes your order is also friendly, he’s the only one."

I've been hearing about Michael's for some time, so I decided to take my brother there while he was visiting. The sandwiches came with various condiments, but I wanted to know what type of lettuce they used due to digestion issues. When I asked the person taking my order, he just stared at me blankly. I asked again, and instead of responding, he walked away. After a few minutes, another employee noticed that no one was taking orders and came over to assist me. The behavior was incredibly rude. To top it off, the sandwich was mediocre at best. I won’t be returning.

"If this restaurant were a movie, it would receive a 127% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. I tried the Bacon Cheddar Jalapeño Bomb Fried Chicken Sandwich and I am thrilled to say that I have not needed a napkin yet. I am only halfway through my meal and I had to write this review. This sandwich is absolutely amazing, with a perfect balance of flavors. I highly recommend it for those who enjoy a little spice in their food. Cheers!"

Los Moles

Menu • Wine • Meat • Casual • Mexican

"As usual, Los Moles prepares and serves some of the tastiest Mexican food around. The taco bar, on Tuesdays, is all-you-can-eat for One of my favorites is the rellenos. You are served one relleno as big as a fat burrito. The flavor combinations are unlike the average relleno in other Mexican restaurants. Do not pass up tasting the moles. You get out of the on hand with tortillas to sample them. My now favorite Mexican restaurant in Marin."

Pho Viet

➤ 555 Francisco Blvd E, 94901, San Rafael, United States

Menu • Fish • Asian • Noodles • Vietnamese

"Pho Viet is one of only two Vietnamese restaurants in Marin. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the food usually arrives promptly. Most of the time, the dishes are flavorful, but on my latest visit, they fell a bit short. We tried simple egg noodles with tofu, which lacked flavor; salt and pepper calamari that were just average; scallops with eggplant, vegetables, and basil, where the vegetables were delicious but the scallops were undercooked; and tofu egg rolls, which were excellent. The service was decent, and I appreciated the manager offering a discount because of the scallops. I’m willing to come back and try other items to give them another shot."

"We were in the area, tired and needed some food. The waitress was very nice but the place looks a little old and run down. My son and I ordered the tri tip steak and my wife ordered a chicken club sandwich. The sandwich was ok and came with a ton offries. We asked for the steak to be medium but it's thinly sliced so came overcooked and extremely dry. Steak sauce was needed.Our waitress forgot our corn muffins which we didn't realize until we finished eating. Dessert was good. We had brownie sundaes.Overall typical chain food (like a Denny's/Friendly's from out east). Least enjoyable meal while staying in San Rafael for aweek."

Hulu Wa Cuisine

➤ 4166 Redwood Hwy, San Rafael, United States

"First learned about Hulu Wa here on Yelp, and took to heart one review that called it a hole in the wall , indicating maybe not the ideal place for a romantic dinner in. But the review of the food was excellent, so we picked up some take out.Portion sizes were very generous. Eggrolls were still hot and crispy by the time we made it home 15 minutes after pickup. The won ton soup 's chicken was tender and not at all dried out, and the won tons, were perfect (though they had all sunk to the bottom of the container, so we didn 't even know they were there until digging in on the second night).We also had Prawn Chow Fun (prawns were fresh, plump, and very juicy), Eggplant with Spicy Garlic Sauce Dinner (just enough heat), and Fish Fillet with Mixed Vegetable Dinner. The thinly sliced fish was a bit on the dry side, but still very tasty.Total for the bill was just under $80, including tax and tip.Well, this restaurant is a definite find for us, and we 'll definitely be ordering take out again. We also liked that they were open until 9pm the Friday we ordered, unlike some others we considered that closed at 8pm."
