After checking out the reviews on Chowhound dot com I decided I had to check this place out despite the unfavorable review below. I'm glad I did. The food was great. Homey, simple, nothing fancy, but great. True, only one kind of beer and two kinds of wine (red or white). But they do have a full bar and all the pilsner urquel you can drink. Vladimir has been running the place since 1960. (He escaped over the mountains from czechoslavakia in 1948 on skis!) And he's still going strong. \r

On a quiet Sunday night there were a few regulars and a sprinkling of visiting czechs. Accordian music was playing in the background. Candles at every table and a fire in the stove. The lights were low and the company was friendly. The food was quite filling (Of the two dishes we tried I'd go for the duck over the cabbage roll. The apple turnover thing was also fantastic. Home grown apples and a little sprinkling of chocolate. Delicious!) After a short hike on tomales point and sighting a herd of Elk on the hillside I can't think of a better place to finish up the weekend. Thanks Vladimir!
