Chef Todd Shoberg’s new restaurant Molina opens tonight in downtown Mill Valley. The intimate Doug Washington-designed restaurant is both chic and cozy creating an inviting backdrop for Shoberg’s casual and comforting cuisine. The daily changing menu will highlight just-plucked produce from nearby Marin farms and seafood from local rivers and ocean waters. There will also be an available vegetarian or vegan offering for the health conscious, non-carnivore. Try the Manila clams with pork belly and Calabrian chile in uni broth or the Monterey Black Cod in Douglas fir miso broth. On a side note, the tunes spinning on the record player are groovy, but the acoustics in the place are a bit roaring. They are very aware of the issue and working on a solution.
Details = fresh flowers, lit candles, dim lighting
