Overall, left umimpressed by this visit. Dining room is boisterous, loud, and bright. Screaming children, loud large party, and the bar overlooks the dining room so the noise from the bar adds to the "ambiance". Very hard to have a conversation at your table. Food was marginal, with two of my guests having to send back the halibut that was dry as a bone. The recooked entrees faired no better. Service from our waiter was on point, making the night at least bearable. With the prices that they are charging, $34 for fish and chips, the food should be the star not the downfall. Probably our least favorite meal out of the week in Tahoe.
