Restaurants in Tahoe City

“Book a reservation at Sylva. I cannot recommend this place enough, it is a fantastic staff, amazing menu and beautiful place. Every dish was beautifully executed and delivered more than it promised. The palette on their chef and the flavors their menus bring cannot be missed. I will be back here every time I’m in Tahoe from now on. Trust the chefs at Sylva and the staff will take care of the rest. They do get crowded so please make that reservation ahead of time. My favorite place in Tahoe City, hands down.”

“Phenomenal food, service, ambience and atmosphere. The menu changes and my favorite is the Tasting Menu. It is divine and I always feel like royalty when I go. 🍽️🧑🏽‍🍳👑🌊🌲”

“Awesome pizza and experience!! The owner and guys working in there were great! VIP service and very cool dudes! Thanks guys!! See you next time Alex & Aaron :)”

“We came for dinner on a Friday night on a holiday weekend and were sat with no wait! We had the best waitress, Kira. Loved the butternut squash ravioli and had one of the best burgers I’ve had in a while! Wish we could have seen the view in the daylight!”

“Quick service and large portions. I got the pork Tacos and was surprisingly full off the two tacos. Great spot for a quick satisfying meal around 14 bucks for the combos”

“totally rad food and drinks. highly recommend! patio is epic”

“Excellent hospitality and good wines”

“Tucked in the back of health food store. Fantastic salad(magic), Thai coconut noodles and homemade chocolate chip cookie. Would stop here again, everything was so fresh and flavorful!”

“We love Bluefish! They have the BEST poke bowls in town!”

“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.”

“Beautiful lakeside location with a nice big dog friendly patio, good draft beers brewed on-site and good pizza. The deep-dish pizza tasted better than it looked. We almost sent it back because the top and crust were pretty blackened, but I hate sending food back, so we persevered and it was better than expected. Not great, but not bad. It was $38 for a borderline burnt/mediocre medium pizza with 6 slices. My boyfriend and I each had 2 slices and 2 beers and were full. The pizza made for good leftovers as well. I enjoyed the two different draft beers I had; the amber type lager (can't recall the name) and a seasonal beer. The service in the bar area high tops was ok. Water is self-serve. They are on par with other local breweries and were very nice but nothing outstanding. Overall, a cool new-ish spot for a beer and an excellent view.”

“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.”

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

“Nice location. Much be good, a lot of people”

“Our first time there. Great little place, due to Covid, we ordered at the window. We hope to dine in when this is over. The sticky pecan bun was to die for. Can’t wait to taste the 5 cupcakes and 9 cookies tonight. Great coffee and Mocha too. We will definately be back”

“My husband and I went here for lunch and had the poke bowl, which was delicious. Would highly recommend! You order at the bar and pick your table. We ate there for lunch on a Tuesday, so I can’t speak to that always being the process. Food came out quickly and presented well!”

“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!”

“Expansive burger menu, and very efficient service. Off hours, you may find a spot in the parking lot too. Check out the burger special that raises funds for local charities.”

“Best Cheese Burger I have ever had!”

“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”

“Belinda is the bomb! Highly recommend!”

“This place is nothing short of beautiful. The host Kevin was the kindest soul and made everyone on our table feel right at home. Left with a tummy full of warm hearty chili and a big smile on my face :)”
