   We had a great time at PlumpJack! The Cesar salas and the creme braille were the best dishes! We had the New York steak that came overlooked. It would be nice to see more adventurous options on the menu like duck. Drinks were outstanding, we had a pisco sour and the martini with frozen grapes. The wine was the best thing of the dinner, we chose a Plumpjack Cabernet reserve! Wonderful! Overall we had a great time!

   Best place to eat in Olympic Valley hands down. If your looking for amusement park food then the village is your best bet. If you want fresh well prepared dinner or lunch you should check this out.

   We were disappointed that dinner was only served in the bar or in the patio where it was quite warm. The pork shank and the Halibut were excellent.

    This is a somewhat sad review to write. Plumpjack has been a very good restaurant in the past. We went the four of us and were rather disappointed. The service was extremely slow - the waiter said the "bar was backed up" although there were only 6 tables occupied. The food arrived only just warm and looked as if it had sat around for a few minutes too long. The food quality was fine but when you pay $60 for a NY strip it needs to be perfect. Side dishes were non-existent. Excellent bread, soup and olives. But they can do a lot better and at $100 per person its not a good value

    Food really good, service excellent - only issue I had was that the heaters weren't all working. We got one that wasn't very warm and went out after a while. We managed to get a seat in the bar area for dessert. Otherwise a great experience!

    3 of the 4 choices were good. Recommend the butternut squash soup, ceasar salad and catch of the day which was mahi mahi. Do not recommend the bison hanger steak. Everything was overpriced, $150 for the 2 of us only drinking water.

    Excellent food. We really liked the olive bread, Caesar salad, bison steak and elk rack. Cooked to perfection. Even our usually picky kids ate everything! We had reservations and were seated right away. Our waiter was super attentive and friendly. The tables looked fine dining but thankfully no dress code, since we only bring casual clothes to a ski trip. We hope to come back again if we are in town again!

    I want the bar menu back! The one menu for the dining room and the bar is lacking in some of the best dishes like the Asian fusion and pizzas. Still one of my favorite places to go in Tahoe.

    Excellent food and service. World-class wine list and food. Best option for 4-star dining in Olympic Valley. Cheese plate, pork chop and meatball entrees are a must have. Look forward to returning and trying other items.

    The restaurant has so much potential and I am rooting for its success. There aren't that many options for delicious food without driving from Squaw/Palisades Valley. But I think that their pricing is way off for what it is. $90 steak? $60 fish? $63 pork chop? Please, this is not a Michelin * restaurant, it's a ski town, and the decor is pretty casual (the carpet, ugh). It's even called a 'CAFE' in the name. Just give us great, simple food. The starters were delicious but the entrees, while pretty, really didn't justify the cost. The server was very nice and overall it was a pleasant dinner. I am not sure if it was due to covid but we tried to get the reservation moved earlier and the hostess said they were completely booked but the restaurant was over half empty. Maybe they were intentionally keeping tables open but it felt pretty unpopular and dead compared to the bar area which has an inviting fire and is always full and lively. And it was actually quite cold and drafty and patrons were sitting with parkas on for the entire dinner. If I were the manager of this restaurant I would work on the dining room atmosphere and fix the menu but keep the nice staff! If you do come, stick to the bar area, which is what everyone else seems to do, and load up on appetizers! Cheese plate- yes! Market salad - yes!

    My husband and I were looking for a place to enjoy a nice dinner to celebrate our last night together on our honeymoon. PlumpJack Cafe has really out done themselves. We made reservations, which I recommend doing to ensure you will be seated without waiting! We were greeted with a celebratory glass of champagne! The hostess and servers were very attentive and offered excellent recommendations. I ordered the Toasted Farro Bowl and my husband ordered the Poke Bowl. We both highly recommend our dishes. We drank the argyle brut which was delicious as well!

    Service and food were excellent as usual. We dined on the patio because the main dining room was closed due to Covid-19. We dined at the cafe twice this trip because of the service and food. The menu was limited but well thought out. The staff was very attentive and friendly. The manager of the resort, Steve Lamb went through the patio conversing with the guest, serving food, and providing excellent wine service. In fact, we did not know Steve was the GM until our conversation with him during our last lunch. The Plumpjack staff provided excellent food and service during difficult times for restaurants. During our conversation with the staff, many of them have been with this resort for a long time...most likely because of Steve Lamb.

    Wonderful dining experience. Very covid-conscious and we felt very safe. Beautiful outdoor space, great service, very good food. Only about 10 or 15 tables, so very intimate and away from all the crowds -- exactly what we were looking for. Due to covid they are serving a limited (bar) menu, but it is lovely. If you are concerned about covid and crowds, but looking for a nice evening out, this is it. Highly recommend!

    Food was excellent and service was quite good, although a bit slow considering that half the restaurant was empty likely due to the coronavirus outbreak worldwide. Also very conveniently located in the village.
