More information on Poggio

Sausalito has long been low on upscale dining options, but all that changed with the late-2003 opening of elegant "Poggio," which is a loose Italian translation for "special hillside place." Adjoining the Casa Madrona hotel and across the street from the marina, everything is special here, from the floor-to-ceiling doors opening to the sidewalk to its interior with arches and earthen colors, mahogany accents, well-directed light, and centerpiece wood-oven manned by a cadre of chefs to the wine cellar, terra-cotta-tiled floors, comfy mohair banquettes, and white linen-draped tables. Executive chef and partner Christopher Fernandez ensures the food is equally elegant with his superb salad of endive, Gorgonzola, walnuts, figs, and honey; pizzas; addictively excellent pastas (try the spinach ricotta gnocchi with beef ragout); and tasty entrees. (Think local petrale sole with buttered spinach, poached potatoes with a lemon caper sauce, or grilled lamb chops with roasted fennel and gremolata.) With a full bar, great, well-priced wine list, and yummy desserts, this is Sausalito's premier dining destination -- excluding more casual and decidedly Asian restaurant Sushi Ran .
