“Amazing meal every time and owned by incredible people ❤️“

“let me tell you something. I grew up in Sun Valley. Tahoe is part of me. My sister called the night before. They didnt take reservations. But, we told them what was up. my sisters n I planned a weeks trip for my mother's 78th birthday. We hadn't all been all together since my littlest sister was 4... 36 yrs later we are all in one place. Our mother wanted to see her friends. Basically our second set of parents growing up. We pretty much pretended we were nonchalant about it. Their daughter n us put a scheme together to surprise them all. Weeks of planning. The night staff left a note for the morning staff. They open at noon. The party of three showed up at noon... us, the party of six showed up 10 minutes fashionably late. So we could surprise n give our elderly parents arrhythmia.The staff was awesome! Table ready, James our waiter was spectacular...the food.... awesome. Not many restaurants would be asking as people came in... are you the party of 9? lol my sister from another set of parents...as her mom confused said " no we are a party of 3" and her daughter leaned back and whispered ..." yes we are the party of 9. but they don't know shhhh!" it was spectacular! Thank you to the staff... you all rock! I hope if we ever make it back and you're still are rocking the vibe we got today, we will be there. You all take care of your staff. Today this place made our moment so special. We cant say Thank you enough.“

“Great spot in Kings Beach/Tahoe Vista. Sit in the deck for lake views (from across the road) or the side deck to watch folks teeing off from 1st tee. Not your typical “19th hole” but it serves that purpose as well. Sit at the bar and get to know the bartenders - a great crew. Get the schnitzel on the menu or any of the mussel preparations.“

“We love the shrimp or fish tacos and yummy shoestring fries! Well drinks are a nice size with a nice sample of beer on tap.“

“Las Panchitas is a reliable dining location in Kings Beach. The Machaca is a high-protein dish featuring shredded beef and eggs, making it an efficient choice for those targeting 185g of daily protein. The beef is prepared with minimal excess oil, which is beneficial for metabolic health.“

“Today I came with my family to my favorite spot in Lake Tahoe and met a couple of really friendly guys who, even though it was crowded, served us some delicious food. It’s still my favorite place ever burgers cooked to perfection, crispy fries. Thanks, CHAR-PIT.
Thanks, guys.
(The only unpleasant thing I had to witness was a girl who seemed drunk or high, yelling at them over and over again. She wouldn’t let them work and was being way too rude to the staff there, until my husband told her to stop bothering them and let them work, but she kept being rude to them.)
BUT AFTER ALL THAT HAPPENED, THANKS, GUYS! I'LL BE BACK SOON 🍟🍔“

“This was the most delicious and beautiful vegetarian restaurant meal we have ever had!! Compliments to the entire staff. We will definitely be back!!“

“What a pleasant surprise.

Few people come to Tahoe for the food, but Sage Leaf made this meal feel like a destination in itself.

The burrata appetizer was beautifully composed. The citrusy yuzu jam, perfectly toasted bread, savory prosciutto, and creamy Di Stefano burrata all worked in harmony. Every component felt intentional and contributed to the dish without overwhelming the others.

We also loved the Niman Ranch pork chop. The citrus brine kept the meat remarkably tender while giving it a clean, bright flavor. Paired with creamy polenta and perfectly cooked mushrooms, it was both comforting and refined.

The house-made pasta was another highlight. It appears to change with the seasons, and this version showcased a thoughtful selection of vegetables that truly felt like “eating the season.” The combination of balsamic and pesto was unexpectedly delicious—the acidity of the balsamic brought out the richness of the Parmesan beautifully.

What stood out most was the care behind the food. This is clearly a kitchen that cooks with intention and respect for ingredients. Our server, Brandon, was excellent and made us feel that same level of thoughtfulness throughout the meal.

If I could offer one small piece of feedback, it would be that a few dishes seemed to have many ideas competing for attention. A bit more restraint and a clearer focal point might make them even more memorable.

Sage Leaf reminded me that great restaurants don’t just serve food—they capture a moment in the season and put it on a plate.“

“The food was delicious! The coffee was amazing. And the service was excellent!!“

“Katie recommended the mushrooms and snap pea/asparagus salad. We also got the burger and the pork belly Mac and cheese. Every dish was unique and flavorful and we can’t wait to be back. Beyond that, Katie provided amazing service and was so personable and kind! She is a gem and deserves a raise!“

“I went here for dinner on Friday, May 15th. Love the tapas concept! Since I was dining by myself, I was able to try 3 different dishes without overeating :) wait staff were super helpful with recommendations and everything was absolutely delicious! I also found pricing to be on par with quality. Definitely recommend!“

“One of the best restaurants I’ve ever experienced! The staff were amazing too!! Definitely tell all my friends that travel to Tahoe that this is a must try!!“

“Incredibly delicious food and an amazing overall experience! The staff are exceptionally friendly, kind, and always smiling, which makes you feel truly welcome from the moment you arrive. The atmosphere is warm, cozy, and very inviting. A wonderful place where you can relax, enjoy great food, and feel taken care of. Highly recommend!“

“Tucked away in an Incline strip mall this is a hidden gem. The ambiance is very French mixed with north Tahoe vibes. All the staff were super friendly and just enhanced the experience. The lobster bisque was amazing and comes with a fluffy pastry baked on top which is a meal in itself. The bone in veal chop was delicious, tender, flavorful and sat in a sauce that complimented the veal perfectly. We also had the sea bass which was flaky, moist and flavorful with hints of coconut. It was great. Highly recommend“

“Visited Sunday Morning June 11, 2023. Was very impressed with every employee with whom I came in contact. Our meals were excellent and the coffee was the best I have had for years!“

“I love pizza! Gathered here with a work group and had a very nice time. Atmosphere was relaxed. Staff was so friendly and helpful. FOOD - first the salad bar was delicious/fresh and so yummy! The pizza?! Amazing! I was really happy to bring some home to enjoy! Go and eat - you will not be disappointed!“

“I love this place. Very good choice and the best pizza in Tahoe City. Friendly folks. Reasonable prices. You will enjoy their product!“

“Found ourselves here while driving the lake. Great spot with some of the best food around. If you can, take time to walk this area of Tahoe City - it’s really beautiful with a lot to do. Drinks were good and the sourdough bread was delicious.“

“Great breakfast and wonderful service.“

“Great pizza and fun beer selections. Service was good, waitstaff very friendly.“

“Wow just wow (food wise this is not a review of casino itself) usually when i go to eat and see something with a single burger around 12$+ i just know I'm gonna be ripped off but no the burgers here we're genuinely good the price felt worth it, not to mention the Tacos were genuine Mexican tacos even my mother was surprised when she realized a white guy cooked them since he really captured the Mexican spirit in tacos and salsa overall u will be back when i visit reno“

“If you are looking for the locals spot, this is the place. Great food at a reasonable price. Not much more that a hungry human could ask for.“

“We’re visiting from the Uk and can’t recommend Za’s enough. Amazing food, amazing view, amazing service, amazing food, amazing staff and amazing value. I can’t recommend this place enough, we loved it and the only negative is that we live a million miles away! Thank you for with a lovely experience xx“

“Best food we have had in Tahoe. Period !!!! Try the onion rings Fat cat style. !!!“

“Amazing place been a while last time I’ve been here“

“Deliciosa la comida y un excelente servicio ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“First time here at this place! Great food, we sat at the Bar for Dinner, they had video poker. My Wife put in a $20. She cashed out with a 144$!!! The Bartender Gabby went above and beyond for us!!! We're going back for Dinner tonight 06/20/2026. Someone looking for a great place to eat, don't look any further, you've come to the place you need to be!!!“

“This is a good place to stop and have lunch during your Northstar ski experience. However, I can't give it five stars because the prices are at least double the normal cost. That applies to everything sold here. Options for vegan or vegetarian guests are very limited. All that aside, it's a nice ski lodge, and the food is fine if you like burgers, fries, pizza, chicken tenders, etc. Lines are usually short, and the staff is friendly and helpful. It is clean and tidy.“

“We ordered two cauliflower crust pizzas and a salad for pick up. The cauliflower crust was not an option on the online menu so submitted the order verbally via phone. I figured the cauliflower crust would cost more but I almost fell over when picked up the pizza and told it was $71! Really not sure why I didn't just walk out and tell them to stick the pizza. At this crazy price, I expected an exceptional pizza however, it was anything but. First of all, it was NOT cauliflower pizza crust! Second, it was cold and the crust was hard, with very little sauce. Extremely disappointing.... pass on this overpriced garbage!“

“We were in Truckee for the day and wanted something different. This was the perfect place! Outdoor dining was amazing balls! Comfy setting, like your own outside patio. The food was exactly what we wanted! A watermelon non alcoholic spritz was so refreshing. Not sweet but more blended fruity mix. A hot tasty sandwich, perfectly crispy sweet potato fries and that day.. a velvety French onion soup. It was a different type of bread, bunch of spices and big slice of the cheese! So much cooked onions and a broth that tasted like it was cooked for hours, to get a deep rich beef taste. Staff was so friendly and nice. Will be going back to try their pizzas and salads!“

“A go to place whilst in the carnelian Bay Area :“

“Great food and beer - and nice people serving 👍“

“The best part of this restaurant is it's environment and it's dog friendliness. We always go with Ares our JRT and you often see other dogs, on the patio. Food is good too, but I actually like my own cooking of quality meat in general.“

“The food is a little pricey, but very good! I got the pastrami sandwich. The music doesn’t match the vibe of a tap house at all. Also the service method is fast food design. You order and pay and take a number. Overall would get takeout for the food, but not enjoy in house again.“

“Our favorite place for sushi and girls outings, love the atmosphere, the food and friendly staff.“

“Best Cheese Burger I have ever had!“

“Delicious food with a great atmosphere“

“I loved this place! It was really neat to go inside and take a look around. We ate outside, which was perfect for this weather. I enjoyed the atmosphere and the food. I got the peach salad with grilled chicken, which tasted delicious! The portions were a little smaller than I would have liked for the price, but it was a great portion for a smaller lunch salad. Would definitely recommend going there, especially eating outside and absorbing the atmosphere.“

“Stopped by Cutthroat's Saloon for an after dinner drink and some dessert to bring back to the room. This establishment is located within the Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe, so it makes for a very convenient spot to pick up food if you're staying at the hotel. The restaurant is due a refresh, but I will say that our carmel fudge sundae tonight was out of this world!“

“One of our favorite places“

“WOW Summit y’all knock it out of the park not one but two nights in a row!!! Food, drinks, service and atmosphere all spot on!!! Keep it up Summit we needed a great smokehouse in the area and here it is“

“We stumbled upon this spot & after a long, tree-topping adventure and it was a lifesaver for the hungry crew!
Glad we'd called in to reserve tables — when we arrived, it was packed with lines out the door. Service was prompt, and the food was yum! Our group went with tom yum soup, tempura, rolls (veg and shrimp), satay (chicken), drunken noodles, red curry and fried rice — most of them hit the mark!
We even snagged extra fried rice with tofu, portions were just right, and prices were reasonable. I'd definitely go back, if I were in the area!“

“I ordered the Swedish pancakes, absolutely delicious! Friendly staff, great service! I will return“
