    We arrived to a fair ly full restaurant with a reservation but they didn't seem to have been prepared for us. We were seated for a long time before the host came over and asked if anybody had helped us. I don't think we were actually assigned to any waitstaff so different people kept coming at various times and asking for our drink order and then our food. Food took forever to come and one dinner came before the other two. My husband had practically finished his meal before my son and I got our meals. No one ever checked in on us or asked if we wanted coffee or dessert, we were just given the check by another staff member. I think the restaurant was clearly understaffed because the wait staff did seem to be running around crazy at other tables.

    Wonerful. Always offering quality mountain lodge meals at reasonable prices. The staff is friendly and helpful every time. It is a warm and cozy room with a fire. What more could you want? Delicious bread bowl clam chowder and elk pot pies. Great appetizers. Nightly specials. Thrre is always someting gor vegetarians. A build your own salad opion is a great feature. The crinkle cut fries need to be removed from the menu. Don't let these fries dissuade you from going there. Just don't order them. Beware, they come with the fish and chips. The fish is good but the crinkle cut fries need upgrading!

    What a gem this place is! It's a sleeper. Wine list is the best deal I've seen anywhere and portions are generous! The service is so warm and friendly with an amazing team of servers who work together so well they should be a model for other restaurants. The exposed wood beams, table top decor, and wood-burning fireplace are so cozy and inviting. They don't build places like this anymore. Classic Tahoe feel. The food was good--I had the trout and my husband had the chicken schnitzel. Portions were huge! Such an interesting menu I wanted to try more! There were several large parties during our meal but everything ran seamlessly and servers were so attentive. This is a perfect place for dinner. I would highly recommend it.

    Service was great and server was very knowledgeable about menu. Food was average. Baked onion soup used too much bread and by end was just a bunch of onion. Large open area with access to the kitchen visual. Old fashioned was average.
