Ristorante La Toscana — Restaurant in San Rafael

I used to go to your restaurant years ago(pretty much every Tues eve with a friend & it was kind of "date night" for us as her husband doesn't like to go out, but my guess is that he still picks up dinner for her from you quite often. I have always found your food to be consistent in quality & the 2 people I brought with me yesterday were happy with their choices & both said that they would come back...one of the two people who were with me yesterday is in Senior housing (Nazareth House) over by Terra Linda Safeway & in terms of places that are close she had only known about "The Four Points" & now she can tell people who come to visit her about your Restaurant. P.S. I've made Arancini with people from Italy & Scilly...it was always my pleasure to help over the holidays with them but I was disappointed with yours mainly because I was taught that they should have more Mozzarella in them & peas more cooked. I still enjoyed them but the one I took home I added more cheese to but only had Parmesan. But overall it's nice to see that you still have tender veal,...

You've got to check out this little Hidden Gem. For anybody who has lived in the Marin area, you've probably tried this place and kept it to yourself. From the outside, it is very unassuming. You might even pass it up, but don't. This little Italian star is a must stop place. The authentic Italian cuisine and ample Wine Bar match the elegant decor within. Our server was an older Italian gentleman. He is quiet, direct, and efficient. He made sure we were well taken care of despite how busy things were and never made us feel rushed. My guest and I shared one of the best Caesar salads I have had in a long time. I then had the Tortellini Toscana (Veal & Prosciutto) prosciutto, peas, and cream. Divine! I love the taste of fresh made tortellini. My guest had the lasagna and was impressed with the flavor and texture. Lunchtime is busy, so be prepared. The best part of all is the price. $20 to 35 pp without alcohol. I can't wait to go back and sample many of the other dishes. I promise to get pictures this...

For some reason the hostess tried to have my friend and I seated at a very small table that looked like it had not been cleaned well , even though we had a reservation and there were nicer tables with outdoor heaters on the other side , so I asked the waiter if we could move and he allowed it. Poor move on the hostess part (or whoever that woman was) they allowed a single person to have a four seater table but wanted us to sit in a corner. I don’t think so. Other than that thoughtless move on her part, the rest of the visit was awesome. The waiter was very nice as well as the gentleman who brought us our drinks . Fritto misto appetizer was EXCELLENT the bruschetta was good as well. We also had the pasta Carbonara. Beef short ribs and adult beverages (yummy) Since we had quite a few menu items I feel confident recommending this restaurant! Once you get past the female that doesn’t know how to seat people with reservations properly, it’s a really...
