"This place carries Pliny the Elder (and Blind Pig) in the bottle. Nuff said."

"For the grocery store: Sour cream, yogurt and salsa fresh by the pound, along with tortilla packs made right in front of you."

"This isn't just a grocery store: There are FOUR food counters, including a BBQ stand outside and a taqueria (5 street tacos for $5!) inside. Plus a counter for huge, family-size to-go meals."

"Get a burger with their house-spiced bacon! (And always ask them if they still have Pliny on tap. One of the best IPA's ever, and they pulled it for weak, generic garbage.)"

"Best St. Pat's venue in Marin *** Don't miss the imperial stout or Hopickle triple IPA *** Pesto Garlic Chicken pizza is perfect *** Excellent burgers"

"The curry with duck and pineapple is awesome!"
