La Ginestra

“Amazing food! Real, generous and high quality ingredients. The canelone was the best thing I’ve tried recently”

“An incredible Italian gem dating back to 1964 in Mill Valley. Innovative simple salads with fresh ingredients; amazing Pinza flatbread appetizer; and homemade pastas. Warm wood, candles, and an overall charming ambience.”

“We popped in without reservations after spending a day at the Muir Woods. They accommodated us. The food was good and the service was excellent.”

“Ordered spaghetti bolognese with meatballs for take out. The bolognese sauce was thin and runny. And the meatballs were a TRAVESTY of what they should be. Meatballs have some bread in them to bind them together. However, these meatballs tasted solely of bread or bread crumbs and had no meat taste whatsoever. This is absolutely the worst Italian food I have had in 45 years in the Bay Area.”

“I ordered a “bowl” of minestrone for my meal. What a joke! The bowl was filled one-third of the way. Maybe a cup of soup. Maybe. If I’m being generous. In my 50 years of life I’ve never seen anything like this. Fill the freakin bowl. I left starving. Am home eating a bowl of Cheerios. I had a beet salad first that was also basically 8 pieces of lettuce and 4 pieces of beet. Cheap. Underwhelming. Sucked. I will never go back.”
