A word from Dragonfly Restaurant and Sushi Bar
Dragonfly Restaurant and Sushi Bar, in Historic Downtown Truckee combines a unique blend of influences with its “Cal-Asian” cuisine. Voted Truckee’s Best Restaurant, owner/chef Billy McCullough uses local and seasonal ingredients fused with flavors from around Asia for a unique culinary experience. Plantain Crusted Basa with Banana Curry Sauce or Tea Rubbed Kobe Flat Iron Steak with Asian Chimichurri Sauce are examples on the ever changing dinner menu. The sushi bar features sustainably harvested seafood. Only the best and freshest fish here! Our Candy Cane Roll with Maguro Tuna and Escolar and our Salmon-Dungeness Crab Roll create return customers daily! The eclectic lunch menu's highlight is the Green Thai Curry Noodle Bowl with Grilled Prawns and Udon Noodles. Enjoy a cocktail in the lounge or bottle of wine on the deck.
