Welcome to Piccolo Teatro (Small Theater) di Sausalito Osteria and Bar
Business Summary what's this?
For two star Japanese, try Sushi Ran in Sausalito. This place is moderately priced. It's known for its sushi. It's been awarded the 10 Best SF Sushi award. Know before you go: this place features outdoor dining. When you step inside the restaurant, you'll notice a family atmosphere. This place features delivery, catering, valet parking, lunch, and fine wines. People who have eaten here found the food worth a visit every time i am in the area and worth the wait. Try the best.

Yes, Sushi Ran is really good, although I'm not sure that it's better than my favorite joints in SF. If nothing else, it's more upscale and higher-priced. A lot of interesting appetizers and cooked...

Best sushi I've ever had. Some interesting twists, but mostly just nice cuts of very fresh fish. I've heard the cooked food is equaly good, can't say for myself though.
