Farley - Sausalito

However, I found the Farleys furniture to be oddly uncomfortable; the space felt overly large and confusing, which made it difficult for me to navigate. The casual chairs had low tables that didn’t allow my partner's knees to fit underneath comfortably. Thankfully, our waitress was kind enough to help us find a more comfortable seating arrangement.

Our waiter was pleasant at first, but he seemed to forget about us after a while. Perhaps he had too many tables to handle; we noticed him bustling around to assist other guests while we were left waiting for an extended period to place our order. When we finally did, we requested that the bread be brought out first, but it took 25 minutes to arrive, and it all came at once—not in courses as we would have expected. As a result, our main dishes and sides were cold by the time we finished the salad. After a long wait, we finally saw our waiter again and asked to see the dessert menu, and my partner ordered an instant cup of coffee. Fifteen minutes later, we expressed our frustration at the lack of service, which was overheard by a busboy who acknowledged our dissatisfaction. Eventually, our waiter returned to provide us with decent service, though not without an eye-roll. Unfortunately, this is no longer the restaurant it once was.

I usually have a much higher opinion of Farley than I did tonight. There was clearly something off in the kitchen. The bartenders were huddled together chatting, and our server seemed to vanish for a while. The meals arrived slowly, which was frustrating. This was a disappointing experience, especially since I had brought two friends who had never dined at Farley before.

We sat on a beautiful day on the veranda. the view, the table, the service and the menu as well as the basic isolation from the next table added to a very unforgettable experience. we're coming back.

The burger was well done and had aïoli on it, and my husband ordered it medium rare without the sauce. It took 40 minutes to get another one from the kitchen. The noise level was high value is poor.
