“You can't beat the view of Lake Tahoe. The food and drinks are also great (the Wet Woody is definitely a summertime classic). There are a variety of options as well, so everyone should be able to find something they like. Dinner options are typically not cheap but they do have a kids menu if you do end up bringing a younger child. When you are done with your meal, take a walk down the dock and take in the view.”

10990 Industrial Way B103, Truckee - 9.34 miles

“I rarely leave reviews, but this place deserves the attention. The beer was phenomenal. I tried three different brews and each one was my favorite. On top of that, Montana, the Paleontologist by day and server by night made our experience memorable. I brought my toddler with me and she entertained both of us the entire time (in a great way) with amazing facts around dinosaurs and was an absolute gem. Their location is a bit hidden, but fully worth the visit. It's SO cool inside. We took off right before trivia night, but I'll definitely be bringing my wife back to join the fun. Anyone looking for a place to stop by should add this to their list. Huge appreciation to Montana for such an enjoyable time.”

“Lives up to the hype! Finally checked out this place and was not disappointed. Arrived just before 12:30 to about ten people already in line and they had already run out of their chicken sandwich special but I wanted the falafel bowl anyway which was fresh and delicious. I added the avocado salsa which I wish was thicker but the taste was great. The outside patio area is great for kids and dogs if you don't mind the occasional sound from the jets which you could still talk over if you spoke loud enough, so it gets a ding for atmosphere because seating inside was hard to get as well, but if you're getting food to go then it's a good option. Plenty of airport parking!”

“Off the chain, great! I've never had a bad meal there, and I've been dining at Azzara's for at least 20 years. I always tell people who ask for a recommendation. I think it is thenumber 1 restaurant in Incline.Be sure to ask what flavor the homemade Gelato of the restaurant is for that night. And if you like the flavor, order at least one for the table. If you've traveled to Italy and had Gelato there, Azzara's is like a taste of Italy.Vegetarian options: All the pasta for which there are many choices, eggplant Parmigiano (outstanding), salads, especially the Ceasar, roasted veggies, but you have to ask for it to be cooked a little longer otherwise, it's al dente,very al dente. Their menu is online, so you can see what maybe I left out.”

“Exceptional! We made reservations for my boyfriend’s birthday. We got the price fixe menu and the wine pairings. Every single dish was fantastic and we learned a ton about the wine we were tasting.Wine pairing = 2.5-3 glasses of wine matched with the courses you choose. I wish there would have been more California wines on the menu (I’m biased!) but the wine did not disappoint.Price fixe menu = four choices with two special treats from the chef. Exceptional flavors and presentation.There were at least five different wait staff we interacted with, and the host, all lovely and helpful.Total cost of the meal including tip and tax came to $635.00 for the two of us. We spent about 2.5 hours dining at Trokay and most of the next day talking about it. Highly recommend for a special occasion.”

“The food is just right, with delightful flavors and perfectly cooked textures, yet the restaurant feels cozy and unpretentious.I think the food is much more thoughtfully crafted than “fancy” spots further in to Tahoe City (caveat: I have only tried one fancy spot further in Tahoe City) - you can tell there is some creativity and joy going into it here.Every dish we tried was even better than expected with the flavors. We mostly had specials (seafood stew - shrimp/octopus/snapper in a light broth with slight chili kick, roasted asparagus beet gorgonzola salad with curried pomelo vinaigrette, fig and walnut blondie with caramel and whipped cream) plus the tofu and greens.Can’t wait to return and part of me wants to keep the place a secret!!!”

“If you are in the North Lake Tahoe area and looking for a legit Third-wave coffee roaster then this is your place. I'm an avid home roaster and always on the lookout for small shops that cater to my tastes when traveling. I was fortunate enough to drop in today while the owner Drew was roasting on his trusty Diedrich just inside the door. It was a priceless experience getting to chat with him about roasting and even get his advice on my struggles to hit the City+ sweet spot with my dry process beans from Sweet Marias ?.Ok, coffee roasting geeking aside – You can't go wrong here if you want to have a solid espresso drink or a carefully prepared pour over with a choice of freshly roasted coffees from different origins. I had a perfect flat white with the house blend and tasty sample of the fruity funky Columbian they were offering pre-brewed. As you'll read in the other reviews the vibe here is chill and the service was great.If you enjoy craft roasted single origin coffee that's not too "dark" (ironically) be sure to stop by this place! Oh, and don't forget to pick up a bag of freshly roasted house beans to bring back to your coffee loving friends back home!”

“Small and cozy - gives modern cabin vibes We did the 6 course menu (note that this menu will no longer be available after week after my posting - it will just be the 10 course menu with both wagyu and chicken) Thought the portion sizes were great and was honestly stuffed at the end Food: Avocado toast [5/5]: very nice japanese twist on a breakfast staple. The miso soaked bread is delicious and surprisingly pairs very well with the mint leaves on top Kampachi [5/5]: fish is super fresh, liked the pickled radish on top but honestly couldn't really tell they were pickled (doesn't have that sour-briney taste), broth was also fantastic. Simple and tasty :) Crispy pork belly [5/5]: i loveeeed this - probably one of the best pork belly i've had. Skin is super crispy but not oily and doesn't feel fatty. It's succulent, juicy, and really yummy with the miso sauce Trout [3.5/5]: 3.5 because i'm just not a huge fan of the fish itself, and it tasted like most other trouts i've had. However, the skin is super crispy and definitely smokey (if you like smoked salmon with dill, this will 100% be your cup of tea) Chicken [4/5]: super crispy smokey skin, the ginger miso bbq (?) sauce was very yummy as well. I thought part of the chicken breast was slightly overcooked but overall very juicy. Also comes with a side of baked sweet potatoes with furikake -- soooo yummy, sweet, and creamy. Maybe a little too much furikake imo - was quite salty and I would've been happy with just a sprinkle Pecan pie [5/5]: yummy! Loved the sakuru cream they paired with it, super light and floral, went well with the pecan pie that had a dash of hennessy”
