While the borders between Corte Madera and Larkspur can be fuzzy for some, in this grouping we are sticking with the Corte Madera zip code, which in terms of restaurants means, from South to North: Zinz Wine Bar to Fieldwork Brewing, and West to East: Cafe Verde to Amy’s Drive Thru. The town’s name means “to chop the wood” in Spanish, and the restaurants there make ample of its namesake, whether it’s the fire-roasted pizzas at Boca Pizzeria or the tasty grilled meats at Pig in a Pickle. Beyond this there are no shortage of notable dining options, from perennial classics like Marin Joe’s, to the authentic Burmese eatery Burmatown, which even has a listing in the Michelin Guide.
Be sure to check each restaurant’s website or social pages to confirm its most current hours of operation and services.
