Farley

We live in San Francisco, but this was our first time dining here. Since our son loves the Golden Gate Bridge, we took him to visit today, and my husband found this restaurant online. The setting is absolutely beautiful—very peaceful, with outdoor seating that offers a stunning view of the bridge. The food was excellent. We had the Caesar salad, which was crisp and refreshing with very fresh vegetables. For our son, we ordered the truffle-seasoned fries, which were unique and flavorful. My personal favorite was the mac n cheese topped with pork belly—crispy on the outside, tender inside, and paired perfectly with the rich, cheesy pasta. The steak was also very good. Overall, everything was wonderful: the food, the atmosphere, and the service. We’ll definitely be back, and I can’t wait to try their brunch next time!

Farley and Sula - Elegant Dining with a View at Cavallo Point Lodge in Sausalito I have dined at Farley and Sula about five times since last November for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, both for work and leisure. While the food is consistently good, it does feel slightly overpriced for the location and limited competition within walking distance of the lodge. What sets this destination apart is the ambiance and flexibility. Guests can dine on either side of the two restaurants or enjoy a meal outdoors under heat lamps with sweeping views of the San Francisco Bay, the city skyline, and the Golden Gate Bridge. Farley offers a sophisticated gastropub-style setting with a casual yet elevated menu, while Sula provides a more relaxed lounge experience. I love that both restaurants share menus, allowing guests to sample dishes from each while seated anywhere on the property. The service is consistently warm and professional, adding to the comfort of the experience. However, I do not agree with the 4% kitchen staff surcharge applied to food items. In my opinion, compensating staff properly should be the restaurant's responsibility, not an additional cost for guests. Must-Try Dishes at Farley and Sula Classic Benedict ($28) - 4.5/5 Served with Canadian bacon, tomato, hollandaise, and breakfast potatoes. This dish was flavorful, satisfying, and perfect for a working breakfast. The sauce made it a bit tricky to eat neatly, but it was still delicious. Blue Crab Cake ($26) - 4.9/5 Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, this crab cake was beautifully presented and paired perfectly with dill remoulade and pickled mushrooms. A must-order for seafood lovers. Watermelon and Heirloom Tomato Salad ($30) - 4.7/5 A refreshing mix of endive, arugula, feta, basil, and minted vinaigrette. The presentation was stunning, and the flavors were balanced and fresh. While delicious, it felt slightly overpriced compared to other entrées. Fort Bragg Petrale Sole ($36) - 4.9/5 This dish stood out for its presentation and balance of flavors. The parmesan crust and toasted almond risotto were delightful, complemented by lemon and thyme butter. Coffee-Rubbed New York Steak ($54) - 4/5 The steak was well-seasoned with chipotle-lime butter and served with crispy potato wedges and corn salsa. The flavors were excellent, but the steak arrived slightly cooler than expected, which detracted from the overall enjoyment. Caramel Bread Pudding ($13) - 4.9/5 Served warm with vanilla ice cream, this dessert was rich, comforting, and perfect for enjoying outdoors on a cool evening. It was the ideal sweet ending to a scenic dinner. Drinks Sausalito Sunset ($19) - 1/5 A mix of rums, passionfruit, coconut, and nutmeg. Unfortunately, it was overly sweet and syrupy, masking the individual flavors. Palomita ($19) - 3/5 A tequila and mezcal cocktail with grapefruit and fresno agave. The flavor was balanced but not memorable. Final Thoughts Farley and Sula provide one of the most scenic dining experiences in Sausalito, with panoramic views of the Golden Gate Bridge and the San Francisco skyline. The ambiance and service make this an excellent spot for a romantic dinner, a business lunch, or a relaxing brunch at Cavallo Point Lodge. While the prices can feel high and the drinks inconsistent, the food quality and atmosphere are worth experiencing at least once. For locals, I recommend enjoying a picnic on the grass, hike around the nearby trails and returning here in the evening for a glass of wine and dessert by the fire.

Our business meeting at Farley with my partner and husband was perfect! As an interior designer at TERAPOLIS I appreciate stylish atmosphere and great furniture selection. I am glad that one can drive to Marin 15 min from SF and feel like visiting a different country. Great experience! Thank you!

Very average food Extra charges They messed up our order a few times and didn’t comp anything to make it up. The slowest service and average food . The desserts are expensive and very very small pieces of cake.

Truly as good as it gets. A hidden gem because of its location, but absolutely worth the drive if you’re looking to get out of the city. Menu is fun and creative. Service super refined and polished. Atmosphere cool without trying to be. Been coming for years and haven’t ever had a bad time. Pro tip: eat outside on the deck facing the Golden Gate Bridge. Some of the most underrated views in the whole Bay Area. Cheers!

This was our first time having brunch at Farley and it was a great experience. The restaurant has a very sophisticated look, cozy and warm ambience super inviting. Our waiter Nico was exceptional. I had the chicken sandwich with a martini espresso. They were both amazing. My wife had the chicken noodle salad and she liked it. I recommend you make a reservation before coming here on weekends especially.

We stayed at the Cavallo Point lodge at the end of April and dined at Farley. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and we were seated at a lovely table. My kids were given a separate kids menu and enjoyed broccolini and macaroni and cheese. My husband and I enjoyed some amazing cocktails with the umami fries, crispy fried calamari and the ahi tuna poke. The seafood was fresh and delicious. The tuna could have been lighter in terms of the dressing because it covered too much of the tuna’s natural flavor but it was still enjoyable to eat. The service was great and the staff was attentive to our needs and any questions we had. The grounds and view around the hotel were also beautiful. We would gladly return in the future.

Must Go! What a beautiful place. Took my parents to Farley and we loved our experience. Parking on the street is very limited. So we valet. The restaurant is Beautiful. The Service was great. Food was wonderful. So very worth it. After lunch we walked around the beautiful park in front of the restaurant. Again, it is a Must go.
