    Our server Lina was awesome and attentive! We had a birthday celebration and she went out of her way to make it special. The food was great! French onion soup, filet mignon and salmon dish are all must haves! We definitely recommend for a nice occasion out. We sat by the kitchen which was not loud. One thing to improve food can come out a little hotter, but overall it was awesome.

    There were very few tables that were not tall with tall chairs. There was a whole side of the restaurant that was not open. The music was unbelievably loud and obnoxious. The food was good, but we won't be going back. It lacked an elegant ambience. ďżź

    We celebrated my Husbands 65th birthday and they graciously comped both desserts we ordered. That was really nice and not expected! Over all the food was good, a little heavily salted, that needs improving. The lobster bisque was like lobster Queso….way too thick. My dish was scallops and they were fabulous, most of the entrees were great. The bloody Mary isn't the level of Garwood's on the lake and they need to improve on that, it was watered down. The drinks at Lake Tahoe Garwood's never disappoint. The server was really great, she made us feel welcomed and gave us a top notch service experience (Thank you Jordan:D)

    When we got there we waited for almost 10 mins to be greeted and seated. The hostess clearly saw us she was on the other side of the restaurant and started talking with another one of her co workers half way back to the area where customers wait to be seated and they were just laughing with each other. Other employees were walking passed us and didn’t do or say anything either. A waiter that had tables waiting on him ended up sitting us (cause we asked) & our assigned waitress not once checked on us after she brought out the food. It took her like 30 mins after we finished our food to give us our check. Not a great experience & I never leave reviews so that’s how you know it was bad.
