“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!“

“Excellent coffee, very good service, prompt. Pretty good selection of fresh baked goods, a great buzz in the place, with people meeting and chatting. Great art on the walls, and clearly has free Wi-Fi. Definitely would come back.“

“God-tier level breakfast sandwiches, our whole group was just jaw on the floor with how good they are! You can either do a bagel or croissant option, I got croissant, and customize with a few toppings. The coffee was solid and they have creative latte flavors. I’m from Seattle so always appreciate when the coffee is spot on. The guy who was at the register had the best positive energy and made you feel so welcome. We are sad it’s not closer to home! Thanks for the good eats!“

“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.“

“The best spot in Truckee for a homestyle breakfast with amazing flavors 💛

The place is beautifully decorated, with every corner adding a warm and inviting touch. It’s a chill spot for a comforting morning meal, and the service is excellent.

The coffee is great too.

The star of the meal: the biscuits. You absolutely cannot miss these biscuits; they’re the best I’ve ever tasted!“

“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!“

“Gonzalo truly set the tone for an exceptional experience at the Living Room Lodge (LRL) at The Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe. Warm, friendly, and incredibly attentive, he made us feel genuinely cared for, from start to finish. His hospitality felt effortless and heartfelt — and the heavenly vanilla latte he crafted came with a smile that made it even more special. Gonzalo is a true gem and a shining example of Ritz-Carlton’s world-class service & hospitality.

We were seated in a beautiful spot with stunning views of the Northstar ski slopes on a bright, sunny day. The experience was elevated by sitting behind a subtle tinted glass that softened the harshness of the sun while still letting in all the light and scenery — the perfect balance. Surrounded by towering Sierra Nevada pines, the setting felt serene, cozy, and quintessentially Tahoe.

We started with a vanilla latte that was nothing short of magical — it truly felt like a warm embrace in a cup. Smooth, comforting, and crafted to perfection.

The meat burger was perfectly done — juicy, flavorful, and deeply satisfying. My son absolutely loved the chocolate and strawberry ice cream, which was a delightful treat.

Dessert was the grand finale: the salted caramel lotus with vanilla sponge cake, caramel glaze, and cacao nib streusel was an absolute masterpiece. Each bite delivered a beautiful harmony of textures, flavors & suspense; indulgent yet refined.

An unforgettable experience that blends breathtaking views, outstanding food, and truly genuine hospitality.“
