"Recommended only for the hardy, the Marshall Store primarily offers customers seats at high wooden tables placed exactly along Highway One, making for a precarious perch. Order fresh oysters, creamy chowder, Dungeness crab, bottles of chilled wine and local microbrews inside, then take your place looking over Tomales Bay, with the highway roaring impotently at your back, and let the sun shine down as you shuck and slurp and sip." - Paolo Bicchieri, Gretchen Giles
"Famed seafood spot the Marshall Store has opened a second restaurant in Tomales, SFGATE reports. Head chef Mark Malicki, a veteran of Petaluma’s Tea Room Cafe, is serving a takeout menu of ceviche, tacos, campechana, and other breezy dishes at Out the Door. The new spot is geared especially toward beachgoers and Tomales locals: Owner Shannon Gregory told SFGATE he was motivated to open the new restaurant following a number of Tomales restaurant closures." - Justine Jones
"Celebrates special occasions with 24 oysters and incredible garlic bread." - 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
"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." - calder silcox
