| Poggio/ If the best wine is made from the most difficult soil (an old Italian proverb), then perhaps the best food is grown on land with the most spectacular view. Or something like that. This seems to be the case at Poggio, an Italian-style trattoria spilling out onto the sidewalks at Sausalito’s landmark Casa Madrona Hotel. On the hillside above, Poggio’s organic garden is a steeply terraced plot overlooking the San Francisco skyline. (Poggio means “hill” in Italian.) It teems with watercress and peppercress, radicchio and Tuscan black kale, and a host of other Italian herbs and vegetables fed by sluices of cascading water."
Poggio is one of the Top 100 Restaurants of the Bay Area
“one of the best and most romantic casual places to eat in Marin.” - Michael Bauer, SF Chronicle
