“The best meal we’ve had in the Tahoe area all week long. Just perfectly done — my halibut with tomato shallot sauce was out of this world. Going to try and make it at home, it was very impressive! The potatoes gratin were perfect, and the rosemary bread and butter was also divine. Thanks for feeding us so well on our honeymoon. 🥰”

“Best Burritos in Town – A Hidden Gem!

The Burrito Window is an absolute gem! Quick, delicious, and always satisfying — this place never disappoints. The ingredients are super fresh, the portions are generous, and the flavors are out of this world. Whether you’re grabbing a classic burrito or trying one of their creative specials, every bite is packed with flavor.

The service is fast and friendly, perfect for a lunch break or a late-night craving. I love how convenient it is — just walk up, order, and enjoy! It’s become one of my go-to spots, and I always bring friends here when they’re in town. If you haven’t tried The Burrito Window yet, you’re seriously missing out.”

“This restaurant is fantastic! Lukas was one of the best servers I have come across. They have unique and flavorful twists on traditional Scandinavian dishes. And the manager Jeff sources local foods. The ahi appetizer in cones was a recommendation from Jeff and did not disappoint. Our Schnitzel was fabulous and so was the elk pot pie. It was quiet at the time we happened to be there so we got to chat a bit. We learned that the owner’s daughter is the pastry chef so we had to try the cheesecake. Also delicious. It was just a great dining experience.”

“A bike event on Sunday turned into a cold, rainy, windy, miserable day. We went to The Dam Cafe for hot chocolate and got so much love! The owner not only welcomed the wet, muddy riders in, she put out space heaters and wrapped us in blankets! Amazing! I was so cold and was warmed both physically and emotionally by the kindness. The food and drink where delicious. Can’t say enough good things. A little cottage of heaven in Tahoe City!”

“Creamy Mac n Cheese, crispy sesame-ginger wings, and that basket of sweet potato fries were all on point — comforting, flavorful, and perfectly balanced with a cold Tahoe Pilz.

Morgan gave us excellent service, upbeat and genuine, which really elevated the whole experience. The kind of service that makes you want to come back — whether for a meal or just a drink.

The sauce lineup was a show of its own — blue cheese, ranch, Dijon mustard, ketchup, and Sriracha ranch. Each one brought something different to the table. The Sriracha ranch added a spicy kick, Dijon gave that sharp tang, and the blue cheese and ranch balanced everything with creamy coolness. Even the ketchup hit just right with the sweet potato fries. Every dip had a purpose — making the wings and fries not just tasty, but downright addictive.

“Food tasted good, service was nice, price was pretty high, as you'd expect being right off the coast of Tahoe, with one of the major highways leading to Tahoe nearby.

Decent place to chill and relax if you're hanging around the nearby beaches, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come back here.

There were bathrooms for customers.

There's parking not too far from here. Didn't notice a dedicated lot.”
