AS NEW ENERGY VENTURES, LLC EXPLAINS IN ITS PROMOtional literature, it took a long time in California for electricity competition to move from the category of "wacky idea" to widespread acceptance.
But that was before the California electric market opened in April, and before NEV had formed its New Energy Buyers' Alliance, a consortium of clients for whom NEV buys wholesale energy. The alliance includes associations like the California Retailers Association, Western Growers Association and the Independent Colleges of Southern California.
ON MARCH 26, JUST BEFORE IT OPENED THE STATE'S electricity market at midnight on the 31st, the California Public Utilities Commission announced new interim rules to protect consumers, plus this warning: "Any entity who is considering doing anything contrary to [state law] regarding electric restructuring, and [this] decision adopting such safeguards, should think twice."
Ostensibly, that advice followed from last year's passage of State S.B.
MICHIGAN CHOICE APPEAL. Michigan Attorney General Frank Kelley filed an appeal in the Michigan Court of Appeals of the Michigan PSC's Jan. 14 rehearing order (News Digest, March 15, 1998, p. 18) adopting a phase-in schedule for electric restructuring and retail choice for Consumers Energy and Detroit Edison. Kelley alleged that the order fails to create a competitive generation market or foster lower rates. He called it an "outrage," that gave the utilities everything they wanted. Case Nos. u-11290 et al., Feb. 13, 1998 (Mich.P.S.C.).
NEW HAMPSHIRE RESTRUCTURING. The U.S.
Cynicism is nothing to scoff at. Cartoonist Scott Adams of Dilbert( fame has made a good living at it. But cynicism has an Achilles' heel. It reflects a certain lack of objectivity. It may deflect serious debate.
Consider the securitization of electric utility stranded costs. Last summer, after Ken Rose had thrown down the gauntlet against securitization, %n1%n I heard him speak at the 1997 NASUCA mid-year meeting and was struck that his message might make mischief in state regulatory and legislative arenas.
State Legislatures
UTILITY HOUSE CALLS. Michigan Gov. John Engler (R) signed into law a bill making it a felony to impersonate a utility employee to enter private property for criminal purposes. The new law calls for those convicted to be imprisoned for not more than two years and to pay a maximum fine of $1,000, or both.
ELECTRIC RESTRUCTURING. Illinois Gov. Jim Edgar (R) signed into law an electric restructuring bill for the state. Edgar noted that concerns over the bill were addressed by the state's two largest utilities, Commonwealth Edison and Illinois Power Co.
USGEN IS THE NATURAL CANDIDATE TO PURCHASE NEES' generation assets. We have a well-established commitment to the region; we have strong power plant operating experience; and we have been a leader in promoting competition and customer choice in gas and electric industries."
(em USGen President and CEO Joseph P. Kearney
In August 1997, U.S. Generating Co., an affiliate of PG&E Corp., successfully bid $1.59 billion in a competitive auction for all of New England Electric System's non-nuclear generating business (18 power plants, plus power purchase contracts and other assets).
THE POWER PLANTS OF AT LEAST FIVE UTILITIES IN NEW England and California get swapped this year for more than $5.3 billion. And happily, those holding bonds on the plants will be given cash for their coupons.
These utilities (see sidebar, "Going Once, Going Twice¼ Sold!") can expect their credit ratings to remain firm or even jump (em although that's debated by analysts. Such improved ratings may surprise market observers led to believe that loss of utility collateral would hurt investment grades.
Federal Agencies
Nuclear Plant Fines. The Nuclear Regulatory Commis-
sion has proposed fines totaling $2.1 million against Northeast Nuclear Energy Co. for many violations at the company's Millstone nuclear plant in Waterford, Conn. The fine marks the largest civil penalty ever proposed by the NRC. Northeast Utilities said it will pay the fine, which it called "a necessary and important step toward bringing to closure a very disappointing and difficult chapter in the company's history." The utility said it will not pass the cost onto ratepayers.
Electric Futures.
CONSUMER FRAUD. The National Association of Attorneys
General, meeting Nov. 18 in Washington, D.C., to discuss electric restructuring, issued a warning to electric consumers on fraudulent schemes and abusive practices by scam artists. The warning encourages consumers to check their electric bills for unusual provider names or charges, and to avoid participating in contests that require a signature that can be used to switch an account.
IN THE EARLY 1970s, WHEN THE "ENERGY CRISIS" DAWNED, New York told electric utilities to stop advertising to promote electric use. State judges deemed such promotion as lacking in "any beneficial content," or even "detrimental to society." It took an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court for utilities to win the right to tout their product.
Today's questions target the bottom line: Can advertising boost sales for energy suppliers? If so, what does it take?

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Real-life Stieg Larsson tale like a Norse saga
Any good Norse saga features an intractable family feud, death and usually a legal dispute. The tale of Stieg Larsson has it all.
Given the huge posthumous success of his Millennium trilogy (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played with Fire, and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest), it's not surprising a bitter postscript to Larsson's life has become as gripping as his fiction.
The novels have sold more than 27 million copies worldwide, and have been adapted into successful films in Sweden. The Hollywood version of the first book, starring Daniel Craig and Rooney Mara, hits theatres this December.
Sadly, Larsson's partner of 32 years, Eva Gabrielsson, won't see a dime or have a hand in managing his literary legacy. Her new memoir is a long-anticipated broadside at her main foes in her protracted legal battle, Larsson's father Erland and brother Joakim.
Larsson died of a heart attack in November 2004. But Swedish law grants no marital status to what in Canada would be common-law couples.
Now, Larsson's father and brother -- whom he barely knew as a child, having been raised by his maternal grandparents in northern Sweden until he was eight years old -- have claimed all rights to his novels. And to Gabrielsson's chagrin, Larsson's publisher Norstedts has gone along with it.
Gabrielsson's memoir is full of vignettes of Larsson's life, from his childhood to their time together in social and political struggles. Fans of his novel will delight in the reasons why he chose details for his fiction. A crucial Ford in one novel is based on his grandfather's car; he set a pivotal scene aboard a sailboat because he and Gabrielsson spent many hours sailing around Sweden's islands; and many characters were based on real people they both knew.
The early separation between Larsson and his parents engendered a lasting emotional distance. According to Gabrielsson, the second and final time Larsson's brother Joakim set foot in his apartment was the day of his funeral.
Unfortunately, Gabrielsson and Larsson never married, despite living together for 30 years, in order to escape detection by his political enemies in far right and neo-Nazi groups.
Thus, watching the legal train wreck over Larsson's legacy unfold in Gabrielsson's account is as gripping as anything Larsson himself wrote.
Larsson's father Erland and brother Joakim barely come into the story until Larsson dies, which may be the most damning aspect of the book. And then, despite protests they "didn't want any part of Stieg's estate," it dawns on Gabrielsson, reeling from shock at her partner's death, they aren't just slow to respond to her attempts to straighten out Larsson's affairs. They're secretly freezing her out.
The ironies are cruel. Larsson had actually composed a will in 1977, before leaving for a dangerous sojourn in Africa. In it he left everything to Gabrielsson, but did not have it witnessed. She only discovered the document when looking for an old letter of his to read at his memorial service.
Larsson had also eagerly agreed, on the advice of Norstedt, to set up a company owned by himself and Gabrielsson, to control his rights and royalties. But she learned after his death he never got around to doing it.
It would be easy to forgive her a little bitterness, yet the memoir is largely free of it. She prefers to skewer Erland and Joakim with frank accounts of their deception and arrogance. Outrageously, Erland suggests (and later repeats publicly) their legal problems could be solved if Gabrielsson would agree to marry him.
She also disparages false friends who emerged after Larsson's death who "trot out apocryphal memories and bizarre stories about Stieg for the media or in books." It's hard not to wonder if Kurdo Baksi's memoir, Stieg Larsson, My Friend, published by Norstedts (Gabrielsson's, significantly, is not), is a target here.
Gabrielsson also asserts she has the manuscript for Larsson's unfinished fourth novel, The Vengeance of the Gods, and that she's quite capable of finishing it. That manuscript is the only card she holds in negotiations with Erland and Joakim.
Sadly, despite his death, the tale of Stieg Larsson is not over. Though there are other stories of his life out there -- Baksi's, as well as Barry Forshaw's biography The Man Who Left Too Soon -- Gabrielsson's is likely the most personal we'll see. But there will be no complete picture of his life and legacy until the dispute over his work is settled.
And like any Norse saga, it may take a generation or two. Gabrielsson isn't likely to give up. "I know how [Stieg] would react in every situation I'm facing today," she writes. "He would fight."

Date: February 17, 2011
by: Rachel S. O'Hara | Staff Photographer
Christi Frost got into sailing when she was 10 years old. Her now brother-in-law was teaching sailing, and once she got on the water, she never looked back. Frost, 17, is a junior at Pine View School and sails at the Sarasota Sailing Squadron for both her school and for the Sarasota Youth Sailing Team. Frost also teaches sailing during the summer as part of the Sarasota Youth Sailing program.
What are your strengths and weaknesses?
My strengths are definitely upwind in big breeze and in light breeze, and what I think I need to work on is some of my downwind style in the medium breeze.
Do you travel for sailing?
I haven't traveled internationally yet; I would love to. I've traveled all across the country. The most recent regatta I went to was in Miami — that was the biggest international regatta that I've sailed in.
What is your favorite part about sailing?
My favorite part about sailing is that it's completely different every time you're on the water, and it requires so much, both physical strength and mental strength, to remain focused and to incorporate all the aspects of what the wind and the weather are doing around you.
Do you have dreams of sailing in the Olympics?
It's definitely far in the future for me, because the sailors going to the Olympics right now have already graduated from college, but I definitely think it is an aspiration to keep in the back of my mind and to continually strive for, at least to have a campaign for the Olympics someday.

SHANGHAI, Dec. 3, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- China is the world's largest producer and consumer of building materials, as well as representing a new market for those who engage in sustainable building. The USD$1,700 billion construction market is forecast to grow at an 8.5% CAGR, or RMB 30 trillion, by 2020. The retrofitting market is expected to increase by more than 1,000%. All of the world can see the buying and consumption power of China's building and design market.

As one of the largest premium comprehensive building trade shows in China, Expo Build China (www.expobuild.com) has built up its reputation through 21 years of experience in the building industry, and has served as a gateway for investors and traders who want to approach the rapidly growing Chinese market. Expo Build China is organised by UBM Sinoexpo and supported by the Architectural Society of China and the China Institute of Interior Design. A great variety of high-tech building materials, innovative technologies and designs will be showcased at Expo Build China from 1-3 April 2013 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre. As part of the international hospitality show, HDD Expo, it is estimated that Expo Build China will attract the participation of over 400 exhibitors and 40,000 visitors.
With the strong support of timber industry associations such as European Wood, the American Hardwood Export Council, French Timber and Canada Wood, a special themed zone featuring wooden products and timber buildings will be set up alongside the main event. A series of influential timber industry forums will accompany this event, which will not only host talks on optimising the commercial value of wooden products in China, but will also serve as an important platform for exchanges among architects, designers, developers, traders and manufacturers.
Based on its successful debut in 2012, the second edition of Ecobuild China, which is derived from the world's largest green building and new energy trade fair – Ecobuild in London – will be concurrently held at Expo Build China 2013 in the form of a United Kingdom pavilion and a "green building" pavilion. It will combine the latest innovative technologies and products in sustainable architectural design with a host of cutting-edge conferences, as well as team thought-leadership and practical application featuring suppliers of products and solutions for sustainable buildings and green technologies. A large academic delegation from the United Kingdom such as the British Research Establishment (BRE), the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB), and the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) will provide high-level debates on topics such as "transforming low carbon construction into reality", as well as promoting building information modeling (BIM), BRE Environmental Assessment Methods (BREEAM), and so on. More than 30 leading industry experts from across the world will be invited to attend the debates, which will cover the most pertinent issues faced by the region and the industry.
In addition, the Hotel Plus – Mockup Hotel Room Show will be another highlight at Expo Build China 2013. It is being co-organised by the China Tourist Hotels Association and the Alliance of China Hotel Owners. The Hotel Plus show is devoted to demonstrating the most cutting-edge decorative art and material technologies in hotel space design by setting up six demonstration suites in hotel guest rooms on-site, and the total exhibition area will be over 1,000 sq m. Leading domestic and international hotel management groups such as Intercontinental Hotels Group (IHG), Greenland International Hotels Group, Wanda Hotels & Resorts, BTG-Jianguo Hotels & Resort Group, and New Century Hotels & Resort Group will all be involved with Hotel Plus, as well as Well Tech Studio from Italy.
A host of other events will be held alongside Expo Build China 2013, such as the Shanghai International Interior Design Festival (www.design-festival.net) organised by the China National Interior Decoration Association. A series of design forums, trend releases, and design award ceremonies will ensure rich cutting-edge content including international and multi-cultural exchanges, technology revolutions in the design industry and real business practices. These high-end talks on design culture will feature an unparalleled line-up of speakers, and especially well-known forward-thinking designers. Through communication, sharing and learning, you will not only refresh your views, but also benefit from the interesting networking opportunities.

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons. In the IoT vision, every new "thing" - sensor, actuator, data source, data con...

"Powerful and poetic"
Absolutely. I chose it at random during the Daily Deal offer and had no pretext for the work. I was surprised to learn how long ago it was written. The protagonist is easy to relate with and has depth. I was in a trance through the whole thing.
The imagery reads like train-of-thought and the audience is allowed to "wake up" with the protagonist. The plot is well constructed and builds like a house of cards. It is subtle and shows the reader a pre-feminist view of a woman's life.
Her voice is lovely but she reads very, very slowly. I had to speed it up so it wouldn't drive me mad. Aside from that, her breathy voice lends a sort of quiet frustration to the reading and that works well with the story.
"Must Listen!"
Top 10 favorite books. Beautifully written.
It's not just another dystopian future story with zombies and evil governments (don't get me wrong I like those, too). I love the book's small, simple world and how it is constructed.
No. I wanted it to last longer so one sitting wouldn't work for me.
I've listened to this book several times now and it doesn't lose it's charm. It has a super-natural element that blends seamlessly with Kuntsler's hyper-realistic writing style. Some reviewers were distracted by the "old-timey" slang but I thought it furthered the books character and dimension.

- Good Food, but a slow and inattentive service...OpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 11/14/2014They serve good Italian food. However, the service was very slow although they were not very busy on a Saturday night. Our server did not mention any of the specials they had that evening at the time when we ordered. We found out about it after we ordered when we overheard the server for the next table mentioning all the wonderful specials for the evening. We asked for a refill for my son's milk which we never got. I had to ask someone else again after a while. We would definitely go back to try again, but I hope for a better and more attentive service next time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- An OK Waterfront EateryGnatDined on 10/26/2014Servino has a great location right on the water, with a view of S.F. We booked an outside patio table for dinner. Heat lamps kept us quite comfortable 'til evening's end. The service was reasonably responsive. My drink was so-so - i.e.not the best Manhattan I've ever had. Our main course fish soup was just OK, but nothing special. And the salad was overly soaked in dressing. While the view makes up for a lot, I'd not recommend Servino for the gourmet.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Something has changed (all good!!)GrazieBambinoDined on 10/11/2014We have been enjoying Servino's on the Tiburon water front for years. It has always been good food, good service and a nice setting. That's why we keep going back. Yesterday (October 2014), we went back for the first time in a while and literally rediscovered this restaurant. Something has changed for the better across the board: - The food is in a new league. It is bright, inventive and presented beautifully. - The service was top-notch from the first moment we arrived at the front desk when we were very warmly greeted and immediately taken to our special seating on the outdoor deck. The wait-staff have changed, too. Everyone seemed to be happy and very glad to be there! We highly recommend the NEW Servino.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Uninspired FoodYypoVIPDined on 8/18/2014Sardines taste like cardboard Food rushed out too quickly. Ahi tuna tartare below average. No fresh-fish selections on menu. This restaurant used to pride itself on well-prepared (if unimaginative) dishes. Kitchen not performing that well any more. Too bad as they occupy a great location.
- Great Restaurant OverallMarinDined on 8/1/2014Can't beat the outdoor dining on their deck overlooking the bay when it comes to atmosphere. It's a great place to take out-of-town visitors for the wow factor. The food & service aren't so shabby, making this my favorite on-the-water restaurant in Tiburon. The only beef is the mandatory 20% gratuity for our party of 3. I can see doing this for parties > 4 but for 3? I normally would give around 20% tip if the service is acceptable anyway but this totally takes away my choice.Special Features:
- A great place to entertain guests!GoodrestaurantsDined on 7/31/2014Servino has never let me down. The staff are always helpful and friendly. The food selection is great, and my guests have always been pleased to spend time at Servino!Special Features:
- The following 121 reviews are from the Servino Ristorante reviews archive.
- Perfect nightEatsandDrinksDined on 7/19/2014Really enjoyed the dinner and fantastic view. The service was top notch and very accommodating. The appetizers were flavorful and the pizza and pastas were outstanding.Special Features:
- DrJimmyVIPDined on 6/27/2014Served my dish without its roasted potatoes, martini's were brought to us wrong 2 times, no utensils on the table when we were sat our tables...no problem as I grabbed them off the next table next to us. :(
- Poor serviceLewWVIPDined on 5/30/2014The place was busy. Still that is no excuse to having to wait more than 45 minutes for our drinks to be served and almst an hour for dinner to arrive. The food was ok but certainly not worth the price.
- Great Location/ Setting -Poor FoodTommyboyVIPDined on 5/25/2014We sat on the deck on beautiful weekend for Lunch. The view can't be beat. The food was mediocre at best and the service was the same.Special Features:
- AmazingKavanaDined on 5/18/2014I went in expecting meh food to counterbalance the great view. Instead, the eggplant and the gnocchi blew us away! Spectacular.Special Features:
- Waited a 40 mins, but met no waiterAlexVIPDined on 5/11/2014We have been to Servino's several times in the past - usually to enjoy a glass of wine and an early dinner on the patio. That was the plan this past Mother's day as well. Unfortunately, despite our having a reservation, it did not work out. We were seated on time, but we waited patiently for almost 20 minutes and no one came by even to offer us some water or take a drink order. Even after I notified the host (and he spoke to the waiter) we sat another 20 minutes with no hint of any service. After that we left, walked down the street and had a nice dinner. [Note: I had to give ratings for food/ambiance above - so I rated the feed on past visits, since we were not able to order this time.]
- Terrible Service, boring food.KweaDined on 5/11/2014I went there for mother's day and I can only say the service is horrible. The waiter was the worst waiter I have ever had. He constantly brought the wrong things, forgot side dishes and salads, was trying to flirt with someone at the table and we even saw him taking an olive out of a patron's plate and eating it. The food was no what I expected, it was not horrible, but it lacked flavor and the portions were really small. The only good thing about this restaurant is the location, the ambiance and the view. Everything else it's just awful.
- Everything was good except...BoxerDogDined on 5/11/2014Servino has been a family favorite forever. Mother's Day there is always a special treat. The food was excellent as was the service. I was, however, disappointed when the drink using Skyy Vodka that I ordered had little or no vodka and I was charged extra for a "preferred beverage." It was bad enough that there was little or no vodka and worse to be charged for what wasn't there. This happened once before. It was a special afternoon so I chose not to make an issue of it, but I was not pleased. Playing fast and loose with orders from regulars and tourists is not nice.Special Features:
- A lovely location for lunchlovegoodfoodVIPDined on 4/22/2014I reserve 5 stars for only exceptional restaurants, but this one does come close. The outdoor patio had a beautiful view of Angel Island and the City. The tables are not crowded together and we weren't bothered by birds (like at Sam's restaurant.) I had a terrific tagliolini and finferlli (pasta with mushrooms.) It was a very healthy portion. My friend had the fish and the restaurant substituted vegetables for the potatoes. Don't miss the panna cotta! It was delicious! The wait staff was attentive and the food was good. Don't miss this local gem.Special Features:
- yumyummmmDined on 4/18/2014everything was amazing! only reason for the 4 stars in service was that I was missing utensils when we sat down. but the server was apologetic and got me a fork and knife right awaySpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Be ready to ask....AllanVIPDined on 3/8/2014Three of us had dinner at this restaurant. Nice decor. We were looking forward to a nice dining experience. We had Open Table reservations. When we walked in the door, we were not greeted by anyone. We had to wait about 8 minutes before our hostess seated us. We received water and bread almost immediately. That's where the 'service' ended. More times than once did we have to ask for refills on the water and when we did, the server poured one glass and, without looking to see if the other water glasses needed attention, just walked away. Our ordered drinks took about 10 minutes to get to us. Our waiter seemed indifferent that we blessed him to sit in his section. Finally, be ready to ask for everything with no help from the wait staff.Special Features:
- Service extremely slow, tableOpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 3/8/2014Service extremely slow, table not set properly even though reservations were made for 7. Took 40 mins to order then another 45 mins for entrees. Fortunately are table had good company so no negative comments were made to wait staff.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best meal we've had in a long timeOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 3/1/2014We had a wonderful meal and can't wait to go back!Special Features:
- Very pleasingPicassoDined on 2/27/2014WE had a nice dining experience at Servino's. It was a weekday, which made the restaurant very quiet. We were treated extremly well and the hostess remembered our request upon our arrival. Our server was attentive proffesional and freindly. The food was good. There are not alot of choices on the menu but they had enough for us. We were treated very well with a professional staff down to the busboy who was friendly and helpful.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Brunch - no on poached eggsGinnyDined on 2/22/20145 asparagus spears and four bites of potato under 2 perfectly poached eggs was disappointing in that the accompaniments were a tease, especially for the price! The second dish of gnocchi was amazing and Service was excellent. They must add more to the brunch dish or remove the option!Special Features:
- The pasta dishes were veryOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 2/4/2014The pasta dishes were very good, unfortunately, I had the fish dish (sole) and it was tasteless and of a funny consistency. Overall, I would return but stick to pasta.Special Features:

- Great choice for Italian in Tiburonfood2explore21VIPDined on 1/4/2014Enjoyed very much our dinner at Servino. Ordered the Arugula, beets and pistachio salad and Prosciutto &Burrata, they are just great, specially the Prosciutto & Burrato, just perfect as appetizer. And I had veal for entrée, it was very tender and I liked it very much. And we had chocolate cake for dessert and this is really good, not too heavy.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not a winnerBayViewVIPDined on 12/29/2013Food was unremarkable in presentation and bland. Service was pleasant but disappointing. It had taken me years to return to this restaurant and I will not be returning.Special Features:
- Very pleasant dining experience;davidVIPDined on 12/26/2013Very pleasant dining experience; waiter was very accomodating in splitting special porcini/Dungeness crab pasta for us; truffle based pizza was unusual and delicious. Wine list offers very nice selection of Italian wines from most regions. Will be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Lunch at ServinosRubyVIPDined on 11/18/2013Limited lunch menu. Food not great. priced like it is. Nice people, nice town. On the water. Wish the lunch menu was better.
- Great Lunch!foodgirlDined on 11/17/2013It was a luncheon on a bright Sunday. The view and outside dining experience was just beautiful. The Zuppa de Pesce was outstanding, as well as the burrata with broccolini. Other dishes such as the beet salad were equally delicious. Fresh, local produce & sea food. Sometimes the service was a bit inattentive, but for the most part it was a good experienceSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Stick to the pizza and saladThisnicknamethingisstupidVIPDined on 9/27/2013Heirloom tomatoes, burrata were great. Amazing olive oil for dipping bread. Mushroom pizza is top notch. Service not so great.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- My friend and I were an hourmojoveDined on 9/20/2013My friend and I were an hour late making our reserved time but Servino was gracious and accommodating. Our server made great suggestions for vegan eating and directed me to the cranberry bean salad as a side dish, followed by the kale pasta with chanterelles. Inventive, visually appealing, fresh, and delicious. I would highly recommend these dishes.Special Features:
- Great Little PlaceOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 9/8/2013Nice restaurant on the dock. Very handy for ferry riders from San Francisco. Service was terrific and food was great .Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food in a beautiful settingDyanDined on 8/16/2013We enjoyed a lovely meal, after finally snaring our waitress' attention. The food was delicious, especially the linguine del mare - very fresh seafood in a wonderful sauce. Salads were fresh and tasty, and the panna cotta and creme brulee excellent. Our pinot noir was superb. Although our waitress was attentive to serving our meal once she was found, she abandoned us when we finished the salads and entrees. It took some time to find her to order desserts. The setting was beautiful, on the water, watching the Friday night racing seriesSpecial Features:
- The service was not great,FamilymanVIPDined on 7/26/2013The service was not great, we waited a lot. We saw other tables sit, order, eat and leave while we were sitting around waiting...Special Features:
- Must has sunglasses!flyingcornwomanDined on 6/16/2013The view was unbeatable! Full sun on a perfect Fathers Day lunch. The reservation experience was easy and they mentioned and honored our request for a waterside table. The food was very good - gnocchi was light and fresh and the steak was tender. Our waiter was exceptionally good - read our mind about what we needed without even being asked and happily accommodated a special request. Only regret was not having room for dessert - they looked enticing.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Small portionsOpenTable Diner Since 2011VIPDined on 6/16/2013Very small cafe latte and small brunch food portions. Compares unfavorably with other brunch venues in South Marin
- Incredible meal! New chef~ amazing!DineroutVIPDined on 6/7/2013fantastic meal- fresh and honest. mushroom pizza, panna cotta, mussels, tuna tartare- our menu was delicious. all organic and natural. and if you are gluten free, he has an entire menu for you. can't wait to go back.Special Features:
- UnderwhelmedLauraVIPDined on 6/4/2013Having eaten at Servino before, I was looking forward to our return, this time with a special out of town guest. We were disappointed from the start. Our server seemed rushed and almost undone with stress from our initial request for water, to spilling the wine as he poured, to reaching across people to clear plates as fast as he could...terrible service. The host, if you can call him that, never greeted us, nor even nodded a hello in passing. Our food was marginal, especially the burratta plate, with rock hard tomatoes. Only the view of the boats outside saved the dinner, which Servino can't take credit for. We won't be returning.
- While our waitress was veryfoodgirlDined on 5/12/2013While our waitress was very good, the support staff of bussers were extremely lackadaisical. No water, no utensils, no taking the dishes off the table when the entrees arrived. We had to ask for all of this. Timing was a bit off. But we throughly enjoyed our meal. The halibut was delicious!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not Worth ItfogheadfoodieVIPDined on 5/12/2013Beautiful location and were excited for a late lunch on Mothers Day Sunday. Had to wait almost 20 minutes for our table and then aken to one upstairs where we were close to the stairs and bar - felt like we were in a banquet hall (6 people sitting at a table that was set for 8) despite open (but uncleared) tables next to windows. This despite a 2 week old reservation! Service SLOW. Our entree's came about an hour after our salads! The waiter forewarned us, saying the kitchen was backed up, but yet another table came in after us, ate and left before our entree's even arrived. If the service is poor, table placement is poor, and food just ok (and overpriced), why would you bother? Definitely overrated!

He really is that talented. The house made pasta and sauces are superb. Seafood, fowl, beef and pork are masterfully prepared. The service is excellent and the ambience is very good. The Tiburon location permits some lovely views of the City across the Bay. It is truly a destination reastaurant that most Bay Area diners have not yet discovered.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
