I got a breakfast burrito and a latte to go. Wow! The breakfast burrito was stellar. Great customer service. The woman at the counter was so sweet. Highly recommend! Next time I would love to sit in. The cocktails and food looked amazing

Had a good meal here. The best part was prices below $20. I had the chicken fried steak. The meat was a super soft texture and the hash browns were a bit charred but the flavors were good. My wife had the healthy omelette with turkey and mushrooms. We sat at the bar because the place was fairly full and we had no wait.

Get your capsaicin charge up before riding heavenly with added jalapeño & Tahoe Heat hot sauce. you can buy bottles of this sauce too cheaper than on their site! The place is very affordable and on a weekday theres rarely a wait. Food came out fast and all my vegan modifications were spot on. its quieter than most cafes due to the it being a heptagonal shape. peep this giant vegan burrito

Average breakfast food. Ordered the breakfast sandwich and a side of hashbrowns. They made the eggs wrong but it wasn't a huge deal. This place does get packed on weekends so would recommend you arrive early and put your name on the list and then go grab coffee.

The food we ordered was pretty good except for the sausage. You have no flavor whatsoever. Other than that the food was perfect.

Great breakfast place. Fun and interesting menu. Attentive staff. PROTIP: the coffee is way above average.

So this is a long overdue- my gf and I were excited to eat here. We wanted to eat breakfast before starting our day in Tahoe. It was an hour wait but the reviews seem to make it worth it. Honestly the food wasn’t too bad. Seating was a little tight but not a bother to us. I had steak and eggs and my gf got a Benedict. Both above average breakfasts as the whole experience was 3/5.So we left planning on going to King’s beach when our stomachs said “no no” as nature was calling. We ended up looking for a bathroom in which my gf (who was driving) ended up making a wrong turn and we were heading through the mountains towards Carson. If you know that drive, our little bother returned to panic.We didn’t make it to a restroom so we had our first experience individually and as a couple relieving ourselves at the side of the mountain. We were a new couple at the time so it was a bonding moment like none other. We were a new couple taking in the nature as we expelled nature back.10/10 for memories 0/10 would do again
