We had a wonderful evening at Le Comptoir! It feels like you’re dining in someone’s home — cozy, personal, and full of warmth. The owners recited the menu from memory, shared stories, and made us feel like old friends. The food was exquisite — beautifully prepared and full of flavor. We went once on a casual Thursday evening and again for my birthday, and it was perfect for both. It’s rare to find a place that’s both relaxed and refined, that has high standards without any stuffiness. Highly recommend!

Merci Beaucoup, Stefan and Company!
Delicious French cuisine! We got the pre fixe menu ($70/pp) and had no regrets! Would recommend for the adventurous eaters who appreciate high quality eats. Flavors had variety and depth, while honoring local in-season produce. Could tell with each bite that the quality of ingredients were some of the best. Wine bottle selection is “pick your own” from the shop next door, which offers a fun, interactive experience.
Highly recommend. Can’t believe we waited this long! Great for a special occasion.
Staff are playful and fun – with that classic French hospitality. Bon Appetit!

A casual French restaurant with seriously good food. Tonight I was with a party and from the starters through salmon, melt-in-your mouth pork loin and chicken surrounded by small potatoes and then a fruit galette and ice cream in a chocolate topped puff pastry, it couldn’t have been better. I was so busy talking and eating I only took a photo at the start. And the acoustics were surprisingly good so we could hear each other.

Very tasty French food in a relaxed, casual, yet contemporary atmosphere. Attentive, professional service. I ordered the salmon which was delicious.

Like going to your French aunts house for dinner. Warm, delicious, and comfortable.

The food was delicious, and the house wine was good, but we didn’t appreciate the lack of a paper menu. The proprietor rattles off the dishes so quickly in his lovely accent, it’s hard to even catch words, let alone decide what to eat. The cost was quite high also. But worth it for the excellent cuisine.

We enjoyed a delicious dinner at Le Comptoir last night. I had the beet salad and my entree was the salmon. It was perfectly cooked and seasoned and served on a bed of tasty vegetables. My daughter’s fiancee had the mixed greens salad, the hangar steak, and a chocolate brulee. He thoroughly enjoyed everything along with some wine suggested by Stefan. The staff was very attentive and checked on us often. It was a delightful evening and we plan to return again very soon.

Le Comptoir is an absolute gem among plenty of mediocrity in Marin. Food is between great to amazing with the menu somewhat limited for a small venue. The chef makes every day a different experience based on what is available local and fresh. Wines selection is incredible from the attached retail shop. Value is very good considering prices are medium to medium high, ranging from $20+ burgers to $60 multi-course pre-fix experiences. Please try this place out in support of local business owners we desperately want to sustain in our community.

What a strange experience we had here…We loved Le Comptoir a few years ago. Amazing food and service – but it’s clear something has changed.
We were seated and waited sometime before being informed that there was no wine list – despite an extensive number of wines at the bar. We were told to go “look at the fridge” of the grocery store they own next door. Ok…we’re not snobs…so we go and look at the wines and there are no prices whatsoever. We pick a wine and just go with it because it was a special occasion.
We drink our wine, $46 a bottle (not bad luckily) and wait for menus. We’re having a nice time chatting so it’s no concern, but about 25 minutes in we still don’t have a menu. The owner (I think?) comes to our table, and while nice, he frankly seems like he’s had a few glasses himself. He sort of gives us a pretentious chat about how Americans don’t appreciate French food.
He proceeds to tell us “you can have the tasting menu – it’s $70 a person – or if you don’t trust me I can tell you what we have”. Alight…no menus…we decide to trust him and go with the tasting menu. Here’s what that entailed…one shared appetizer of salmon pate, jambon and and beets. Some bread on the side. It was fine, but nothing to write home about.
For dinner it was another shared plate of overcooked pork in a brown sauce and then a bunch of rice with shrimp on top. Not very French to me…I can make pretty great overcooked rice and Costco shrimp at home.
The dessert was equally unceremonious, on a shared plate. A chocolate mousse, an apple tart, and a small cake with vanilla ice cream. It all tasted store bought – and if it’s not – oof.
The kicker to all of this? $362 with tip for 3 people. Sheesh. For a tasting menu, I’d expect better food and service.
On top of all this the service was just ok…walked away feeling ripped off. Sorry le comptoir, but get it together.
