Barrel House Tavern

Amazing view! Excellent food & nice desserts!
On the expensive side, but worth it!

Beautiful setting on the Bay. Food is tremendous. Classy place.

This Sausalito gem is worth the visit. If you can, try and go on a clear warm day and ask for the outside deck seats. You are staring right at the San Fran skyline! A most amazing view. On cold days, just go for the food! The Impossible Burger is great...

Very nice bar, but horrible service. We sat for over an hour and was only attended to once, and it was not even busy. After being told that the beer was on happy hour and then ordering them, when we went to pay we were told it was not happy hour price because we ordered large beers. Did see some hipster wearing a monocle, which is the only reason why I gave 2 stars and not one... monocles need to make a come back because they are awesome.

Highly recommended. Very nice and well-kept restaurant located right on the bay with a view of San Francisco. Very pleasant and friendly welcome and service. The sandwich in amazing photo. The best sandwich eaten so far in itself. F. Excellent quality meat that melts in the mouth. The beyond burgers for vegans are also excellent. Truly a place to come back to.

Setting and beautiful view. Expensive but tasty, medium abundance.

Seventh anniversary dinner & they didn't disappoint. Everything was top notch!!

The atmostphere, location and food here is all really great. The service wasn't over the top amazing however. I wish the prices weren't as steep and we would have probably ordered more. He had the burger and I the chicken - both were great. I thought the restaurant was unique and had a interesting structure that was integrated throughout.

Loved this place. Right on the water with great views of San Francisco.

Amazing ambience and very welcoming service. The food was fresh and delightful. Will definitely recommend this restaurant to friends and family. Fair prices and big portions. Keep it up.

The bread in the hamburger was burned so it was black.
Beatiful view from the restaurant.

By far it was one of the nicest places we visited. The shop keepers were very helpful down to earth. The engaged us and didn't push. I highly recommend it

I am a 26 year old male that has worked in the food industry all through my teen to early 20 years. I have worked as a busser, host and waiter and knows good customer service when I see it.

My girlfriend and I wanted to have a nice lunch for our anniversary and decided to go here since it had really good reviews. Immediately upon walking into this establishment during the afternoon of Feb 15th and speaking to the host, I felt extremely uncomfortable. There was nobody waiting to be seated, plenty of open tables, and certainly enough places for my girlfriend and I to sit. I was advised it would take up to, let me emphasize, "ONE HOUR" to be seated. Ok, whatever. I said I would wait. Fast forward 10 minutes, I see an empty table that seats two, I'm told a couple has been waiting for that particular table for "a long time." Ok no big deal. So I am asked if I would like to sit at this awkward table in the corner of the room next to the waiting area with no other tables around, no thanks, I want a better table for the both of us. The couple that was waiting for the table that I had asked about earlier shows up, but are seated elsewhere, probably a "better" table. If they were seated elsewhere right away, why was I not seated? Then after the couple was seated, the hostess sat us in the SAME table I had asked about earlier. I take first impressions very seriously and this place has not given me a good one.

I did enjoy my meal and our waitress was "on top" of things and for the most part did a really good job. The hostess on the other hand really needs to rethink how she sits her customers. Very pathetic in my opinion. For the managers, please pay attention to how your customers are treated. I may not look like your average "local," but that's exactly how I felt like I was treated. Somebody that doesn't "belong." Long story short, I will NOT be returning and will never recommend this place to anybody.

Pretty good food, descent price. They have a great bar and awesome views.

Come see the old ferry terminal in Sausalito and have a good meal and a nightcap. Walk the town and enjoy the views.

Great view, good food and service but tourist pricing $$$$

Beautiful setting, excellent food, enjoy a special moment in yours or your families life's.

Post Card Perfect views from the Outdoor Patio terrace, combined with the Most Delicious & Creative food, make this a Must Visit Restaurant when in San Francisco. Highly Recommend the Clam Chowder ! You May find ordering 2 or 3 Appetizers as filling as a main course. The Service is Impeccable, and the Ambiance Memorable. 5 Stars Plus !

The sandwiches and snacks were delicious and flavorful

great service, beautiful Ocean view envirement with yummy food.

I have been once before and it was great. Today I ordered the same sandwich, snapper, and it was just ok. My wife had the sole dish with mash potatoes and she found crab shells in them. Not good. They did not comp the meal but did a glass of wine.

Nice venue, good food, great service. Doesn't scream touristy.

The barrel house is a fun place especially after you have bikes across the Golden Gate Bridge and worked your way to this beautiful dining experience.. we were seated outside over looking the bay and that in itself made it worth the hour wait..

The vegan burger was ok and the drinks were ok..

The vibe and place is a cool place for people in there 20 s,30 s, and up!! Fun for family with little kids too!!

The bartenders were super friendly..

Awesome location and really good food. The food is slightly expensive.

Absolutely amazing setting, food and drink. The bar tender is the heart and soul of this amazing eatery. Sit at the bar if you want to be spoiled and receive an education in food preparation and barrel aged drinks. A gem with breathtaking views.

Great views of San Francisco. A vibrant restaurant with good selection of sea food. The ceviche was tasty as well as the tacos. Service was friendly and quick. A bit pricey but as expected from Sausalito.

Excellent food! Excellent views!! Excellent service!

Great view of the city.
Food could step it up, quality is just not there.

Honestly was really impressed by the quality of food and service here. Super tasty lunch items and cocktails. Great view from the deck!

Love this place, very good value for money, staff are great.

very nice place . for dinner and drinks great view of sf

This is a top class restaurant in Sausalito with tremendous views of San Francisco. This is our third visit here and in never disappoints, the food is excellent, the staff realy professional and friendly, the service is worthy of a 5 stars. A big thank you to Todd who looked after us, a good man. Also thanks to Jack,all the kitchen staff and the waitress to.see photos. Highly recommended. See you next year.

Very friendly staff, great dogs, very expensive wine and correct beer, good stop at Los Olivos on the way from San Francisco to Santa Barbara

The best place in Sausalito to have a dinner, with a fantastic view of San Francisco bay by night. Friendly staff and very good food.

Beautiful views are marched by the food and service

The meals and service were beyond my expectations. We truly enjoyed the atmosphere of this restaurant. Amazing place to take my family out for lunch.

Arrive was both slow and bad. Worse ice cream I've ever had

Beautiful waterside restaurant with excellent service, food, bar, and views. Start with the artichoke dip and go from there!

Spectacular views of the City, GG Bridge and Bay, great food and drink and gorgeous design esthetic & architecture

Very good place to eat something casual and overlooking Downtown and Alcatraz

The Barrel House looks like your typical mainstreet Sausolito restaurant. The building is situated on the waterside and so there are some phenomenal views of the City. The service was good, and the menu was definitely interesting. A great place to have a drink overlooking the ocean while waiting for your ferry back to reality.

Delicious food with a outstanding view. What else do you need!

Not the best choice in Sausalito. Better service and food anywhere else.
Had to wait for service, food, and refills.

Good food, a bit over priced. Below average cocktails.

Great location for lunch. We ordered the meatball and pumpkin soup appraiser and for the main ordered mussels and sole fish. Our food was amazing and would recommend it to all only down side was the service. Our server didn't check on us or see if we needed anything, one of our sides was completely missed and he presumptuously brought the bill without even asking if we wanted coffee or dessert... Which we did want.
I would go back for the food and view but not for the slow service.

The views are great however, the service is nothing to write home about. We waited 10 minutes before we got a waiter. The food took about 20+ minutes before we got it. The waiter was cranky also. The food was ok. The views are amazing and the environment is good

First time for us coming here. The service was solid, which for us is usually the most delicate experience. The views are good, excellent environment (both in terms of design and coziness as well as active social life). The artichoke dip was amazing, as was the calamari. I had the salmon which was fine but falls short of extraordinary. Bourbon hit the spot just right. Looking forward to coming here again.

It was nothing special to me except the daily special food. Service was nice. When I got a too much burnt food, they excluded the food price from a bill

Absolutely amazing view. The food was great. Service was outstanding. Will most definitely return.

Excellent spot overlooking the Bay in Sausalito! I had the kale salad with Blackened snapper a glass of a local Pinot. Great price point on lunch with my family and me.

We ate on the back patio at sunset. It was beautiful. The food and service were amazing. We had the best salad with crab, oysters, the flatbread and wine. We also got to watch the full moon rise over the bay. Wonderful experience!

Great views, excellent drinks! Appetizers were very good too!

One of the best views of the city. Especially delightful to take in while sipping bloody marys and chomping down on the delicious garlic fries. The food here is just as good as the view. Great for a few beers with the boys, talking about life. Or for a date with a girl, talking about a life together.

Pricey. Bring warm winter clothes and eat outside for the view of the Bay.

Excellent food and drinks with a breathtaking view. That is the place to dine.

Great brunch and wonderful views of San Francisco when there isn't fog on their patio. Food was great and fast, but get here early for the patio or try to make reservations. As I was walking out I heard them quoting people two and a half hour wait.

Great view sitting next to the pacific ocean..food is okay for the price..

Spectacular Views, great service, delicious menu.
Marin Favorite

Excellent drinks. Good food. Seating inside or outside with a view of the bay.

Can't beat the views. Great food as well. Our server was wonderful.

Location is GREAT! Food was good but rather pricey for what it was. I did have a less than favorable experience with a server, he was quite slow and not very focused, but I think he is the exception. The rest of the staff seemed very good.

They over cooked my burger (was replaced) and gave me misleading information (said the onions were picked when they were raw) on my meal. Not the place to go for a good burger.

Wonderful. Perfect burger. Good drinks selection. Yummy fries. But decent foods variety.
