Osteria Divino

Incredible restaurant at Salsalito. Tge food and service are very tasty, and the menu is wide with many options from traditional italian food to local sea food.
The space is also nice. Comfortable with beautiful furniture gives a good vibe to anyone seating any table for dinner.
The service is algo great.
Experience is incredible. I went with ny girldfriend in a Saturdsy night. strongly recommend for romantic dinner.

Food was fantastic and the music was completing the vibe. The three of us each got a different entrée and ended up sharing. Everything tasted amazing. Spicy Lamb (marinara?), Carbonara and Mushroom Ravioli in a cream sauce, talk about rich and satisfying.

I first sauntered into this filigreed food dispensary on the waning tendrils of a brisky dusk's eve.

Our maitre d, Zenbôgen (el Hermano primero), seated us promptly in the inky black pit of deepest despair, at our explicit request. Once deposited amongst the gemutlich mélange of plump hassocks, it took many fractions of a minute to receive our twenty seven menus by way of pneumatic tube.

The band was playing some early Sugar Ray (under-rated!) on a haunted harmonium, likely pawned off Tom Waits. Its melody; a splinter of woe, lodged into my mind's ear: To this day, it provides the leitmotiv of my dankest duskdreams.

We ordered off-menu, of course. Our server Stéfañyo, shunted through the bar space like some kind of mechanical sack of reanimated mismatched limbs, teetering on zirconium rails.

We demanded a mango lassi and dragon roll. We were informed that as this is an Italian restaurant the best they could do was a musty satchel of vintage cordials. We acquiesced and were pleasantly confounded by their spurious provenance.

Stéfañyo's black-lodge doppleganger, Stegbā, hovered on the edges of the bar and our consciousness, stalking our enjoyment of the growing night with the intensity matching the numerous racoons, possums, and other nocturnals screaming from the nearby storm drain on the corner of Johnson and Caledonia streets, in the shadows what must have once been a petrol station, but has since devolved into some manner of quaint optometry cult.

Working our way through the meal involved much (mucho) masticating. The exposed bones of our lower mandibles preparing somewhat our nutritive bounty for the journey ahead. Canines pierced and the broad flat molars of our denisovan ancestors slid the blessings into the ganges of our gullet.

Through the drips and dismal slips did slop a spiteful scene. The proteins ripped and alarms were tripped, but the food fell without a scream.

That night, and for two thirds a fortnight following, my dreams were burdened by the spectre of that feast. The band's saccharine melody proved to be Rosetta Stone to appease the djinn of my torment.

Great cappuccinos!

Had breakfast here and had a great experience! The waitress was very nice and warm with us. She made suggestions from the menu from which I chose one and my wife chose something of her own taste. Both meals we ordered (she ordered an omelette and I ordered poached eggs in a tomato sauce) were fantastic with the only complaint being that my meal was a bit small. A third egg or a meat would have made it perfect. Overall, I would highly recommend!

2022 March review: came back again and the food was all on point. The lamb, pork medallion, lasagna are must-gets. Great jazz duo playing live music too. Loved the dinner and will be back again soon.

2018 review: The burrata asian pear appetizer was a v great mix of flavors and textures. The mushroom pasta was good too.

This restaurant is truly a gem! Ambience is amazing and complimented by curated live music. The food is also amazing and we love the seasonal specials. We love this for any occasion.

Delighted we stopped by. Pasta dishes were simple and elegantly prepared. Atmosphere was amazing, with a live jazz band. Surprisingly affordable dinner out! Highly recommend.

Incredible experience all around. Live jazz featuring upright bass and piano tied together beautifully the evening of delicious espresso, bruschetta, insane ravioli, tiramisu, and last but not least: Negronis. Wonderful menu, service, and atmosphere. 11/10.

Omg. I am blown away. The food here is just phenomenal. The bruschetta was delicious. the carbonara and spicy bucatini was some of the best I’ve had in the bay. I will absolutely be coming back here. Live music was a delight!

Best gnocchi ever. I always end up here when in Sausalito.. Veggie lasagna was delicious and the seafood soup too 😋

This is the place you want to be to really enjoy a night out.
Great Italian dishes ( and I am 100 % Italian ) , incredible service ( the best around Marin ) and a plus of live Jazz music with fantastic musicians.
Every person starting from the chef , the honer and every staff member are always super nice.
BRAVO!

Such a lovely place. Best French toast and tea. A must try!! Staff is great! Get here early morning to have the cozy place to yourself.

Great food! Great little place at Sausalito. gnocchi and lasagna are a must . Nice brunch on weekends.

We had a delicious brunch here! The lemon ricotta pancakes were divine and the shrimp omelette was so delicious. Espresso drinks were made perfectly. The live pianist was a charming touch!

Best gnocchi of my life. Stellar jazz band inside. Great service. This was my favorite meal in Sausalito!

First time in California and Osteria Divino did not disappoint. The restaurant itself is quite small, but has ample outdoor seating. The service was a little on the slower side, but they were full so it is to be expected. But oh was it worth the wait, the food was fantastic and so was the wine. Thoroughly enjoyed everything we had and definitely would come back. Definitely recommend it as a romantic spot for dinner. Plenty of on street parking located near the restaurant.

Intimate Italian restaurant with surprisingly good vegan options. The bartender was skilled, friendly, and attentive. We were treated to a jazz trio, which was a delight.

Each dish was great. The burger the sandwich... just excellent

A local favorite. Excellent food and service, live jazz and extra garlic! Plenty of options for those on a plant-based diet. Coincidentally the server was on vegan diet too and knew exactly which dishes were suitable by simply omitting the cheese. I love the Norma with eggplant. Highly recommend.

This is a terrific place where long-time residents with good taste in food and music go.
