Great service! Food was good, and fast. I had the strawberry waffles. There was 6 of us and all our food came out at the same time which is good and rare for larger groups

This is one of the best breakfast spots I've been to in this area so far, I had the Huevos Ernesto and put it down so quickly, the coffee is top notch too and it's an endless cup for like 4 bucks and some change. ?

Ordered waffle with eggs and sausage. Sausages tasted like frozen breakfast sausage over cooked. Waffles we're good and eggs were fine but arrived not very hot. Coffee was not hot either. The syrup served at table is terrible, unless you get the maple syrup at extra cost. The regular syrup tastes watered down as it's not sweet. Overall I would not go back because food was mediocre and over priced.

Fabulous find, real home made food that exceeds your expectations for a family diner! Staff is attentive and friendly. Coffee served with real cream and fresh squeezed orange juice was so good!We will be back!Kid-friendliness: Staff quick to offer high chairs or boosters

We always stop at Ernie's when we go to Tahoe. The service is always friendly, and the food is tasty and filling. Great comfort food.

we had the best experience at Ernie's today- 2/17/24. our server, Tracy, was exceptional. she was kind and attentive without being in our face. the food was delicious! i had the best mimosa I ever had due to the fresh squeezed orange juice. the folks who had spicy bloody Mary's were stoked. when we left, one of our party left a water bottle behind and Tracy came running out to get it us. we are thinking of going back tomorrow! I almost never leave reviews but this was a must! Tracy is rad. Erinie's is great!!!

When we walked in a very friendly worker approached us! I think his name is Marco. I couldn’t really get his name (the server told us he goes by a couple names so I hope I got it right) He’s such a hard/fast worker! He made sure everything was ok at our table poured coffee and water. I never saw him once stop working whether it was to restock stuff or go around to tables and help out! Honest hardworking man. Oh and the food was good too! Great service

Always great service! I love their Ruben. So moist, with kraut on rye! I like extra 1000 island dressing to dip in! So good!! Great steak fries too! Such a Tahoe staple.

We had a wonderful experience at Ernie's! The staff members were amazing and quite friendly. Let's talk about the food! My wife had the Mollete which she absolutely loved and I had the Scram, which was amazing! If you have a hunger for breakfast, go to Ernie's, you wont be disappointed!
