BRUNCH: Left Bank Restaurant in Larkspur

Taking a trip to Marin County? I recommend Left Bank for Brunch. Great area for hikes, shopping and just hanging out. Ate Brunch with wife Leslie, a 2-year old, my parents and brother on Sunday. Food was exceptional! Service always great! Think French food meets California Bistro. Small plates dominate the menu. Dishes are unique and seasonally oriented. Started with platter of foie gras. Then ate the salade lyonnaise. Other dishes at the table that were yummy: steak and fries ("frites"), salade nicoise, salmon. My 2-year-old chowed down on a hot dog and fries. Family friendly for brunch and can be fancy for dinner. Pros: outdoor seating for people watching....quick and friendly service.....french food at reasonable prices.....Cons: it's a drive.....
