Restaurants near Crystal Bay

“Always love dining here! Cozy, nostalgic atmosphere and amazing food every time. Service is always top notch with attentive and pleasant staff. Great selection of quality spirits for cocktail lovers or just go neat, they have the right stuff.”

“Sylva is an absolute gem. Just 14 months in, this intimate restaurant has already mastered the art of creating a memorable dining experience. From the moment we walked in, everything was flawless: attentive service, inviting atmosphere, and perfectly curated music that enhanced rather than distracted.

A special note on their accommodation of dietary restrictions: my girlfriend has a unique set of food allergies, and our server had one of their chefs personally mark up the menu to clearly denote which meals would be safe. This level of care and attention is remarkably rare. We've only experienced this at a handful of other restaurants.

Now, the food. Each dish was exceptional, but a few standouts deserve special mention: the sourdough focaccia bread was extraordinary on its own, but paired with the pork loin, it became something transcendent. The scallops were the best I've ever had, perfectly seared with incredible flavor. Their burger exceeded all expectations, and the confit duck leg was absolutely stunning.

We finished with the bread pudding, which may have been the highlight of an already outstanding meal. Fresh whipped cream, rich chocolate chunks, and expert execution made it unforgettable.

Sylva is doing everything right. This is destination-worthy dining that rivals anything you'd find in a major city. Highly recommended.”

“Justin was our server. This is the best food we have had in Incline Village. Service was excellent to boot. We love amazing food and are willing to pay for it. Sadly so many places here have the price but lack the amazing taste. We had chicken thighs and pork loin. We will be back!!”

“Stopped in for a quick lunch to go and was amazed out how good the wings were! I didn’t know what to expect but they exceeded all expectations by far! So good!!”

“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. 🍽️🧑🏽‍🍳👑🌊🌲”

“Today I visited the Smoke Door Sanryo for lunch with my friend Isao Yoshikawa, the father of the new chef Kosuke Yoshikawa. All I can say is this was a truly wonderful experience with each course in the set lunch menu delivering uniquely superb taste that was delicately balanced with sauces that were extremely delicious. This is fine dining that shouldn’t be missed if you’re in the Kings Beach area of Lake Tahoe.”

“I've traveled around the world and have ate at Michelin star restaurants, been served by James Beard winners near and far and from the moment I walked in my dining experience fell nothing short of top notch! I was immediately greeted with a friendly smile, my server promptly greeted me and provide exceptional service throughout the evening. The food was amazing and prepared to perfection! The ambience is amazing welcoming and comfortable. The whole dining experience from beginning to end was amazing.”

“Thania’s juice bar has healthy juices, great Mexican inspired dishes, and dope remedies for all sorts of ailments. But the best part is….. THANIA!!! She and her staff give a great experience. She answers questions, makes suggestions, and does everything with kindness and grace. Come for the juice, stay for the positivity.”

“Attended a casual mixer following a day long meeting. The staff was welcoming, the drinks were lovely, and the view was spectacular. Great apres ski vibe that made it hard to leave at a reasonable hour!”

“Delicious iced chai lattes, kid friendly options, and wonderful employees!!”

“What an amazing spot! Not only is the ice cream delicious. They have the most patient man working the ice cream counter. The flavors are listed ABOVE the counter so you can see while you stand in line. No charge for a topping, cute fireplace, plenty of seating. AND I went to the restroom and they had a handful of spare diapers for kiddos in need. That kind of thoughtful and caring touch is just amazing and goes a long way for a mom whose kid has been out of diapers for a long time. 😂

My kid’s review: this place is so good that I love it. Big sized ice creams, so make sure you’re sharing if you get a large. It’s super good. I’d recommend the sherbet. It’s got really good ice cream and the guy who served me is really nice.”

“No food service here. Although their sign on the building says restaurant and bar but there is no restaurant.

Parking: There is a shopping center to park in and walk.”
