"I learned that the famed seafood spot The Marshall Store has opened a second restaurant in Tomales." - Justine Jones
"PERFECT FOR: THE TOO TIRED TO SHUCK || Great bayside seating and the best BBQ’d oyster around make the Marshall Store an easy choice if you are not looking to spend a whole day shucking. They’ve got six types of prepared oysters (including raw). We like the BBQ’d oysters and the smoked ones, all sourced from Tomales Bay Oyster Company down the road. There are prepared foods and sandwiches and the tamales are solid, but you can make a meal out of just the oysters. They also sell beer and other beverages. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation
"I celebrate with 24 oysters (fresh, Kilpatrick, Chorizo, and BBQ) and rely on breath mints to manage the potent garlic bread on the ride home." - Eater Staff
"Wedged between the shore of Tomales Bay and Highway One, this slip of a restaurant extends its sliver of a porch along the shore. The result is a vibe that embraces the region’s natural beauty and its casual, outdoorsy nature. Oysters, sourced from the restaurant’s nearby oyster farm, Tomales Bay Oyster Company, can be enjoyed at one of the indoor tables. Better still is to sit outside at the long bar facing the water while slurping down a few Kilpatricks and a side of garlic bread. The house smoker turns out an array of smoked meats and seafood, including oysters placed atop bread smeared with Cowgirl Creamery Fromage Blanc and chipotle aioli." - Christina Mueller
