Tips for Choosing a Restaurant in Novato
Check Reviews & Ratings
Look for restaurants with consistently high ratings and a meaningful number of reviews. A restaurant with 4.5 stars and 100+ reviews is generally more reliable than one with 5 stars and only 2 reviews.
Verify Credentials
Always verify that the restaurant holds appropriate licenses for CA. Check with your state's licensing board for the most up-to-date information.
Compare Multiple Options
Don't settle for the first option. Contact at least 2-3 restaurants to compare services, availability, and pricing before making your decision.
Ask About Experience
Inquire about the restaurant's experience with your specific needs. Specialists who focus on particular areas may provide better outcomes than generalists.
