Amazing food and people. Fantastic service. Treated us like family. Freshest quality of food prepared with love.

Try the carbonara with chicken, bacon, broccoli, and truffle oil...or if you really want to go all out, the lobster instead of the chicken. Delicious!
Rick Revill
Good food good service what else could you want

We had the miso sea bass, scallops, calamari and polenta and everything was cooked to perfection. Hat's off to the chef. Our waitress was personable and efficient, timing everything just right. We never had to ask for more tea or water and the seating was reasonably spacious and comfortable. It was a perfect meal we are hoping to repeat soon.

We had a wonderful meal here last night. The quality of what comes out from the kitchen is top notch. The wine list is very well curated and the bottle Nick helped us to decide on paired beautifully with our dishes. We continue to travel through various regions of Italy and it is a delight to be able to experience a genuine expression of the cuisine back here in the bay area. Unfortunately they don't have a San Francisco outpost.

Good but a bit overpriced. Food is great but I was surprised that they didn't bring bread. Usually in the Italian restaurant they give you a bread and olive oil with vinegar

Been there several times, always excellent.

EVERYTHING was exceptional. My brother took me for my birthday and we are obsessively picky. I lived in Italy for over 35 years and I've never tasted a better Gnocchi with Ragù. The desserts were all heavenly. I made myself stop eating so I could bring some home and repeat the experience in the privacy of own home! Lol. Bravi!
Gerardo House
They serve large portions and for fair pricing. welcoming employees. Kudos.

Great ambiance. Beautiful place. Delicious food.

Marin County is fortunate to have a number of top-flight Italian restaurants, so it is difficult to pick one as being the best, but Il Davide is definitely on the short list. Very popular downtown San Rafael location conveniently located next to a parking garage. Friendly staff, delicious food reasonable prices. They cheerfully accommodate special requests for medical diets, vegans, etc. Weekend nights are busy so be sure to make reservations.

Very tasty bruschetta. Salmon was good
Diane Brandell
Great food, wonderful suggestions from the wait staff. They were so attentive. My water glass was never empty the entire meal. They even split the meals for us that we wanted to share.

Really yummy Italian in Marin! It's a good place for a date night or special occasion meal. The service is nice and it's comfortable.

Martin Griffin
Staff great. The food was good.
Celeste Larson
Lovely atmosphere, delicious food and drink, friendly and polite staff. A perfect night out.
Chip Weiner
Service was excellent but I expected more in food quality. The shrimp scampi ($23) was spot on, but the Sea Bass special (about $40) did not make the mark. It was fairly bland. The accompanying bed of polenta was nicely done, and they have a decent wine list. I'd go back for a second try given the opportunity.

Wish I could give it 4.5. Ate here twice in one month. First visit the food and service was five stars. Second time food wasn't quite as good and our waitress was not very friendly or attentive. Very unfortunate.

The food and service could not be better! We have been customers since it opened and it is our favorite Italian restaurant!
Jack Nguyen
Food is so good. All the employees are also very pleasant. It was a nice experience so I'll definitely be going back again.

Bill Katz
We have eaten at this restaurant since it opened over 20 years ago, and keep coming back. Among the best Italian food in the county.
The Travel Couple
Very good food with amazing service. Super cozy and quiet place. Perfect for a date night!

Ate here as a party of three...hadn't been here in a while and forgot how good the food is. We were there on a Saturday night and it was jammed so they put us in a table for 2. It was a good thing we had a shelf near our table as we couldn't fit our dinner plates and appetizer serving plates on the table at the same time.Anyway, on with the food: Highly recommend:BRUSCHETTA AL POMODOROCAVOLETTI DI BRUXELLESFETTUCCINE VIAREGGIOIL DAVIDE CIOPPINO

Delicious appetizers, salads and mains. Service is excellent. Wine list is fresh, varied and international.
Marco Antonio
Very good as always. The Sea Bass special was amazing
Corey Savio
I cant express how awesome and delicious this place was. The outdoor seating is very nice and everything we tried on the menu was delicious. We shared the burrata then we ordered the chicken parm - pic below - and a scallop dish. Fun atmosphere and a great choice for date night.

You will love it, I guarantee it!!
Ellie Guillaume
I had the Salmon with polenta & veggies; it was excellent. Did not have dessert, but did have a lattee & that was good too. We had about 12 in our party & no complaints. Good service, good location, with a parking lot next door. Lunch time caters to a business crowd. Would be too pricey for me to go often, even though I wish I could.
Trent Erven
Best food I've had in a long time, their risotto and Cioppino are amazing!
Malu de la Fuente
Never had a bad meal at IL Davide! Delicious food! Excellent service!
Andre Delcurto
Excellent food and service. Atmosphere tended to be a little loud on a busy Friday night.
Michael Burton
Great food and service. We went early and got a table with a nice view. Parking lot is not far away. The menu is unique and also provides popular items.
Kristine Ringrose
Wonderful menu. Great food. Great service!
Tim Schaefer
When food is prepared this well, what (truly) is left to be said! Just go! Excellent innovative dishes with the perfect wine list and desserts for anyone. I would eat here everyday!

David Morris
Had our Christmas party there last night, the food was pretty darn good better than last year. And the place was packed...
Joseph Baylon
Ate here for the first time. Got their gnocchi, I'd say I've had better, but the prices are reasonable.
Katie Ward
We had our dinner delivered this evening and it was one of the best during quarantine! The gnocchi with short rib ragu was outstanding! Our meal was delivered on time by Cesare with a grateful smile! We will order again soon!
Xavi BuscallÃ
The Best food ever in California.
Jim Draper
Always a great selection of fresh, homemade pastas along with delicious Meat and seafood dishes. Fabulous selection of wines
Joe Escalle
Good Italian food thats more modern than you'll find in a place with a red and white checked tablecloth sporting Chianti in a woven basket. There's some street parking and a parking garage behind the business.
