Restaurants near Norden

“Great service even on a holiday weekend. Sat at the back in the lounge. So comfortable! Live music was great. And the food was a hit! We had the meat balls, chili, superfood salad and smash burger. Best food at Sugar Bowl hands down!”

“Great food!We came for dinner. There were no seats in the bar, so we sat in the cafeteria area adjacent. It was cold and a little loud (staff was doing some vacuuming)Be aware you need to order at the bar for dinner! It wasn’t obvious to us…”

“When I lived in San Francisco, this was one of my all-time favorite neighborhood restaurants. It's cozy, the staff are super friendly and it's a genuinely unfussy, American-style Italian place that fills you up with comfort food. Came back after a long time away and nothing has changed. It's still warm and inviting with just the right mix of boisterous and quaintness. Their pasta dishes are pretty generous and well-priced.”

“Great spot for a casual beer just outside of town! Greg, the owner, did a great job of making this place feel like an extension of your own living room but with better beer! Fun place to get a group together and the live music is always enjoyable!”

“Best ice cream we've ever had!!!(and we've had A LOT!)”

“I recommend you ban nick Brunel and his mail order bride sexually assaulting and harassing over his real girlfriend ashley Dicken that tried to date me before she infected him with her vanerial disease where she had organized with her father and stole money. He said at your store in 2013, “there will be a point in time where you will have to pick and choose sides, where I will get my Nazi boots out.” It’s not you, it was him. Get rid of him and sell coffee without his plots of putting his STDs in coffee creamer in April 2014... Amazing how AJ Dicken stalked and was tracked by abc7news in Georgia after nick Brunel sexually assaulted and harassed me with himself and multiple scots trying to falsify sanity and survalence for frauds and Tyler Harvell who was a violent scitztzophrenic and college flunk out making death threats after I had saved his life from one of the 3 violent episodes he had in 2009 to 2010.”

“Fun place Good bar food Staff attentive”

“This place has been around for a while as a central hub for drinking and casual dining. The Reubin is Great as are fish tacos.

A recent visit begs me to update this post. Fish tacos were delivered without hotsauce or silverware. Never got either. 2nd Lemon Drop Martini was alcohol heavy ($17 ea). Hostess and server both from Russia or Eastern block...did not know what Google wallet was, had to ask. My 1st martini glass never got picked up even after I set it on top of the completed taco plate and pushed it far aside. The used dishes were ignored 3 times by a questioning server and sat the entire time after I had departed.

Let me train your servers and bartenders. They need it.”

“I was expecting standard Western fare for breakfast but they had dumplings and a congee station! Lots of food options and the bagel fixings were nothing to scoff at! Impressed at the presentation, options, and quality! This would be a great buffet even if it wasn’t at a remote resort.”

“After a bite at the Cafe, great food & staff, we hiked to the Aspen Grove. The colors have just changed and it was glorious. Short hike into the woods with all of Mother Nature’s fall palette in full view. By the time you read this the leaves will have fallen, but you should still go by Alder Creek Adventure Center ASAP!”

“I don't normally write reviews, but I had to this time. The Truckee food scene is modest at best. Most restaurants range from bad to mediocre, with a few notable exceptions, such as The Drunken Monkey and Moody's. Last year I would have included the Dining Room at Village Lodge in the "perfectly fine" category.But my wife and I went to dinner there last night (Jan 2024), and it was immediately clear that something had changed. The service was attentive and the menu was inspired. Andrew did a great job as our waiter. Before even ordering, I said to my wife that they must have a new chef, and indeed they do! It's made all the difference.I ordered the duck, my wife had the halibut, and we shared the steak tartare. It was all delicious. We paired it with a French Sancerre for an impeccable meal. Truly fine dining at a reasonable (by Tahoe standards) price.I should note that we were skiing earlier that day, and prior to dinner had a wonderful time getting to know some of the staff at the bar. We spent the night upstairs at the lodge (cute room), and the next morning had an equally good breakfast and equally good service from Bella. Also, they've put in a coffee bar right by the fireplace between the bar and the dining area. It's a nice place to warm up after a few runs.Highly recommended and worth the short drive up from Truckee.”
