First time at this restaurant very nice experience. Had a long day with a group of friends from a hike and beach day so we were hungry. Very good service and food. Definitely nice ambience with great views to outside. Lighting was low but had these very unique table lights to provide lighting onto the table without over powering.. any way we got different dishes ravioli, spaghetti calamari. Sounded like everyone pretty much enjoyed just overheard some dishes were spicy and they didn’t expect that. I got the ravioli polio very creamy soft and nice amount of spices/veggies mixed in. Definitely recommend.

Every time I'm in Sausalito, I stop at this place. The absolute best food for the best price. You will not be disappointed at all. Rent your bike in San francisco. Do the bike trail across the Golden Gate bridge and take the ferry from Sausalito back to SF. BUT!!!! Before you go...stop here. The menu is to die for and worth every penny you pay. It's cheaper than what you'd pay in SF, and it's better quality. I stop here EVERY TIME! Please tell them Haley sent ya. You can thank me later. What a sweet hidden gem this place is.

We just had a very delicious dinner! The food was great, and you could taste the quality in their ingredients. The ambience was very lovely, I even ended up buying their table lamps on Amazon because I really liked them. It would’ve been a better time for us, if it wasn’t for the treatment we received from their staff. Overall, a place to have a beautiful and delicious dinner.

Great Italian dishes, made fresh to order. Beautiful location near the sea (steps across the street), free underground parking. They were busy with lots of orders at lunch time, so the wait was longer than expected but the quality and taste of dishes worths the wait! Good portion sizes for the price.

This Sausalito eatery is a cozy and welcoming Italian spot located on the outskirts of downtown, offering easy parking and even a few designated spaces for restaurant-goers. For lunch, my dining companion and I split the eggplant appetizer and mushroom pizza. To my pleasant surprise, the eggplant's sharp cheese added a unique and enjoyable flavor profile. The mushroom pizza was tasty but nothing out of the ordinary. The two dishes made for a perfect pre-hike meal. While the restaurant wasn't crowded during our visit, the service was a bit slow. Nonetheless, we appreciated the chance to savor our food at a leisurely pace. For a quick bite, though, we'd opt for a different spot.

Aurora Sausalito - Ristorante: an okay spot for Italian food. While the views of the Bay are stunning, the pasta dishes and service were just average. Not a bad choice, but not particularly memorable either - decent for a casual night out.

Nice place, parking is a little difficult. It didn't seem open when we walked in and there was no music on. They turned it on after we ordered our meals. Food was pretty flavorful. The water was great and chilled in a bottle. Salads were amazing. Pizza was great but a little over done and had some thin burnt areas. Who serves spaghetti without a piece of garlic bread with it? They do that here. A bit disappointed. We actually chose this place (Italian) to get some bread, over Cheesecake Factory down the road, where you get tons of bread. Bad decision. The waiter hovered over us when it was time to pay, that was sort of strange. Just a little different of a place but flavorful.

Really cute and cozy place. The staff was really nice and welcoming. I liked the food. I had the fettuccine alfredo with chicken. It was not heavily seasoned, but it was still pretty good. My husband really enjoyed the bruschetta. Nice environment, good music and it had a decent/partial view of the bay. Parking is a little limited though. Highly recommend.

GPS took us through a tour of residential Italy with very narrow streets before arriving at the restaurant. parking was difficult only to realize the restaurant has its own parking around the corner and under the restaurant. waiter decided to clean all the dirty tables before taking our order; customer service suggest the opposite should happen. we watched him at least 5 minutes as he cleaned. I started sweating inside with no air conditioning. 3 meals, all undersized, came out to $90 with a 15%tip. the location is in beautiful and scenic Sausalito and the waiter was nice.

Upscale Italian restaurant in Sausalito with a standard menu of pastas, pizzas, and other Italian foods. Cheesy garlic bread - warm, savory cheesy on a toasted bread with a tomato dip that melts in your mouth. Minestrone - savory soup that tastes as you expect. It had little pieces of pasta in it. Margherita pizza - the tomato sauce was slightly sour, the dough/crust was mediocre (kinda like fast food pizza dough ngl), and the basil was lacking. However, the cheese and oil drizzle was on point and saved the dish. The crust was done well with a soft inside and crusty exterior. Kinda disappointed at the taste of the food here. I’ve had a decent amount of Italian food before and this just was sub-par. The restaurant was very clean and service was friendly but the food didn’t live up to the rating.

The food is good, but portions are small for the price. The restaurant sits in a quiet corner away from the hustle bustle if Sausalito, and without an ocean view, but prices itself more like an ocean view tourist restaurant. Service was very good and friendly, restaurant nice and clean. All the dishes tasted good, I'd recommend penne seafood. The veal scallopini was also good but portion was rather on the small side.
