Madcap Restaurant

Every dish is a surprise. More than half of them were memorable flavor-wise or had highlights, exquisite and pure delight. Never had such fragrant veggies. The only miss for me was the rib eye (surprisingly), which is too well-done and served as the second last dish, after 10 other amazing dishes I'm already full. Nonetheless, some polish and this place is in line for a second Michelin star!

Pound for Pound Chef always gets down.. A List chef who only seems to get better as the years go by.. always inspired cuisine… amazing wine list and unpretentious yet attentive service.. I’ve been three times and always very pleased! Many chefs fade into not the sunset.. not this Chef. Still a very significant culinary presence in the Bay Area.. thanks chef for keeping it real. Add on: Just had my 4th meal here and it was the best!

Madcap is an incredible restaurant in Marin County. Michelin star rated with a minimum of 10 course tasting menu that is to die for. It's an Asian American fusion and the menu changes with the seasons so you will always have a different experience. Every dish on the tasting menu will leave you breathless. Definitely a must try and it's on the cheaper side for a Michelin star restaurant. I loved the at atmosphere, very moody. Take your special someone there if you are into Asian style cuisine. You won't regret it.

Tgis was an amazing experience! The atmosphere and details from the wood finish to the mushroom-y ceramic coffee cup and plate tied together this fine dining experience. Each taste plate served was visually appealing with flavor to match! Out of all the tasting items served, there was not one that we didn't love. The service is outstanding. I have more photos but need to find them! Luckily, I do have the tasting menu and table setting photos!

Madcap in San Anselmo is a gem. Near one of the cute commercial areas, parking can be weird to find if their small lot is full and you don't know where to look; the one-ways are a pain. Food was generally fantastic, just the right amount. Extremely seasonal, well executed, just a hint of inventiveness. Leans heavily on seafoods. Only miss for me was the ribeye course. Only issue we encountered was service. While overall service was efficient and competent, our main waiter clearly was very new at explaining dishes, very halting, mostly just trying to remember memorized lines. Definitely put a damper on the charm, pacing of the meal. Overall though, still very much a 5 star establishment. The service hiccup would certainly drop it from a Michelin 1* in my book, but perhaps it was a rare aberration, and everything else was top notch. Certainly a very solid deal at $125 - you get a lot more value relative to San Francisco or wine country equivalents.
