This is one of the worst restaurants in Marin. I don't understand how people have rated this restaurant so high. The service was non existent and the food lacked flavor. I had to get up and grab my own condiments because of the horrific service. Don't waste your time with this place.

What a wonderful experience at the Buckeye. We started with a cocktail in the oh so cozy warm, comfy bar. Delicious and top notch bartenders. On to the Dining room where our server, Katheryn and her team were not only warm and pleasant, they provided amazing service Wonderful.

My dish was wonderful, Petrale Sole, cooked perfectly with an herbed crust. Delicious. My wife had the Skirt Steake cooked to perfection with Frittes steeped in juices.

The charm of the Dining Room only adds to the experience in the 90 plus year old gem.

Was here for the 1st time in probably over 15 years. Treated for my 70th BD.
Ambiance is so warm and inviting, with the huge fireplace in the background.
Spot on service. Efficient but not intrusive.
Minimal noise level. Tables nicely separated.
Definitely a destination restaurant.
GREAT and inventive cocktails.
Oysters Rockefeller were to die for, just wish there were more than 6, but @ $25+, we couldn't have afforded more.
We also ordered the Calamari which was a huge disappointment. The smallest order of Calamari I have ever seen. No legs, just rings.
I had the famous Pork Chop which was cooked to perfection, medium well.
But it was so odd, it was sitting on a bed of I don't know what. Not mashed potatoes, polenta. Which was also covered in some very odd coleslaw of sorts. Which didn't blend well at all with the main course. I say to the restaurant, skip this odd slaw or salad. I ended up scooting the whole serving to the side, just so I could get to the rest of the main.
Rest of the mains were fine.
We all ordered dessert.
Sticky Toffee Cake - WINNER
Butterscotch Cream Brulee - WINNER
Coconut Cream Pie - LOSER. It either had a chocolate crust or was drizzled in chocolate which completely took away from the Coconut which was mostly absent. Piled high with not whip cream, but not sure what that was either. I left half of it as for me, it was inedible.
Was sent home w/the S'More Pie, (Birthday). Nice gesture, but way too sweet.

Make sure to hit the ATM big time before you go now, like everything else, it's $$$$$

We stayed in San Francisco for a couple days and wanted to find a place for dinner. This place was amazing! We got there early as we are from the eastern time zone and our "clocks" were still on Eastern Standard Time. So we arrived around 3:30 for dinner. The restaurant only had a few people. Parking was easy and we were seated immediately.

Staff was super professional. Food came fast and was delicious. Seasoned perfectly.

I had the beef brisket with mashed potatoes and a side of mushrooms. Brisket was so tender and It was super filling. I also ordered the mocktail mint mojito. That was yummy!

Restaurant was clean and inviting. It was chilly that day and the restaurant was warm.

The red booths, old beams and photos of a German feeling exterior from days gone by gives this classic restaurant some deep roots. Delicious steaks, ribs, hamburger and even more current dishes like a “light” burrata which was something off Stanley Tucci Italy show. Felt more classic steakhouse with modern twist, packed at 4:30 on a Saturday afternoon. Bar scene lively and warm. Service impeccable . Only compliant was a family sitting near us complaining to management when one of their kids slipped off her chair .. younger child who didn’t fall was hi pitch ( like dog pitch or something )screaming and carrying on disrupting everyone in the building . Parent stating they should’ve had a booth.. couldn’t figure why management didn’t remove them.. make a reservation w your kids needs or leave them at home.. tons of families of all ages here and no other child or parent was making such a scene. We felt bad for the staff and the rest of the diners who hadn’t finished as we had. Classic parent behaving badly. Awful
