    Maggie’s is by far one of my favorite restaurants in Tahoe! I have been here a few times now, but most recently was this past weekend. The cocktails are delicious and well-balanced, the ambiance is so peaceful and relaxing, the service is always outstanding, and the food is delectable! This past visit I had the short rib over tomato risotto and not a drop was left! The truffle fries are also a MUST, and great to order poolside as well if you’re staying at Desolation! It was my friends bachelorette weekend and they even made her cocktail extra special by writing “I Do” on it.

    My chicken was chewy and dry. My husband's dinner (ribeye) was chewy and overcooked. He ended up sending it back. We were there last June and had a wonderful dinner and time. This time we went with our daughter for our 28th anniversary. The staff was very nice and took the ribeye off the bill, but disappointed and won't be recommending anymore.
