Made a last minute reservation. I had the salmon teriyaki, portion was kinda small for the price. Spouse had the prime rib dip, he said it was awesome and delicious. Also enjoyed a mai tai. Kind loud and crowded. Seating close to others. Service was good, we were never asked if we wanted more ice tea or another Mai tai. Parking is great.

The head chef Chris Watkins is so creative with his food. He loves to come out to your table and talk about it. Where it’s from how it’s cooked and why it’s on the menu. Our server Gina, from Romania, was delightful. Others at the front of the house were also great. Can’t remember their names. This is a must. Best food in Truckee for sure.
