The Della Santina Family, noted Epicureans and recognized chefs, have associated with fine food and wines since the 1900's. Marin Joe's currently enjoys a reputation made famous by their outstanding Italian cuisine, first brought from the Great Tuscan kitchens of Lucca, Italy by Adolph Della Santina.
Adolph Della Santina first bought a partnership in Original Joe's in the Marina District of San Francisco, a premier dining establishment, long since gone but remembered to this day with nostalgia. With the noted architect Mario Gaidano, Adolph made plans, constructed, and opened his own restaurant Marin Joe's in May of 1954.

I miss Joe’s. Now living in Hawaii!
Nothing like it if you enjoy grill MEAT!
Yes the ambience is as original as the building and staff.
I used to finish work in S.F late and stop off 101. All the time. No problem parking then, either.
I would simply walk in the door, sweep pst the hostess, and take a seat at the counter, where it would be suitably warm from the charcoal grill blazing in front with numerous cuts of meat sizzling away.the grill chef pointedly knew my order- lamb chops(3), tomatoes, and a carafe of house red wine. Just a nod and bare conversation, and bread was simply placed

Marin Joe's is one of those restaurants that I have seen on the side of the 101 freeway for literally as long as I can remember. I didn't realize that it is a Marin County institution and good restaurant until I sat in the lively waiting area of the restaurant waiting for a salad Joe's had donated for me to take to a charity event. I promised myself I'd eat there soon.
Soon, turned out to be last night. My three companions and I got lucky and were able to sit in a large comfortable booth right away. It was 6:00pm on a Monday night. I've been told that the restaurant is quite crowded on weekends
