    It was dark and it was noisy--perhaps because it was full of new HS graduates and their happy families. I did not mind the noise, for once, because of the good vibe. The food was good and surprisingly plentiful. The price was right. In spite of the crowd, the wait staff did great. We'd driven past this place many times and never noticed it. We found it on the local internet restaurant list. Parking was easy in their lot even though the place was full. For some reason, they did not have my Open Table reservation that I had made an hour before. But they found us a good table for two right away. It is now on our short list of go-to restaurants in Marin. The name is easy to remember because it is named for the wine of an unpretentious district in Italy that we happen to like--both the wine and the district, Chianti.

    Haven’t been to Chianti Cucina in a few years and they haven’t changed a bit. The food was excellent and the service was top notch. We had the eggplant rollatini to start and they were definitely as good as I remembered them. We thoroughly enjoyed the scallops on special. They were seared perfectly and served with a basil pesto swirl around luscious mashed potatoes and a huge mound of spinach. Delicious! Grazie!

    It’s always a great experience at Chianti’s cozy warm & inviting space. Renee was our server who was sensitive to our time visiting which we appreciated. All delicious pasta entrees served hot & fresh! All the servers work together to make for an enjoyable experience!
