Restaurants near Crystal Bay

“We recently had a wonderful dinner at the Crystal Bay Steak and Lobster House. Our server Crystal was phenomenal and very attentive to our requests. It was great to meet the Head Chef Travis. His plates are elegant and tasty. The whole team did a phenomenal job and made our dining experience personal. We can’t wait to go back with friends, family and clients. The team is on their way to bringing back a Lake Tahoe treasure!!!”

“Higher-end place where we had our first breakfast in Tahoe after a monster travel day. Great atmosphere, and food was fantastic. A little pricey, but we thought it was worth it.”

“Came here on a weeknight during a trip to Tahoe. We were seated in the bar area at a high top that still offered a nice view of the beautiful lake. We opted for the tasting menu. The first course was a kanpachi, which was very light and flavorful. Next was a delightful beet salad. I enjoyed the scallop and lamb dishes very much. I thought the service was underwhelming, as they asked for us to hold on to our silverware between courses, which I find less than ideal for an upscale restaurant, particularly for a tasting menu. It was also hard to summon our waiter, as he was quite elusive. Their house breads were fantastic, though, and I really enjoyed their house made olive oil and lavender infused butter. The triple chocolate dessert that is part of the tasting menu is quite small but very rich. My dining partner opted for the panna cotta instead, which I think was stronger dessert. Overall, we enjoyed our experience here due to the quality and execution of the dishes and beautiful ambiance.”

“What a fantastic hidden little gem! Really cozy organic modern interior. Our server, Bre, was excellent. And the food was outstanding! It's the next day and I can't stop thinking about it! I might even go back tonight! ?”

“We always enjoy getting Mountain Slice whether it's for the pizza, the ice cream, or both! Make sure to call early in the day to place an order for dinner as they get very busy and sell out. Today we ordered the tie dye pizza. I am allergic to tomatoes, so I ordered it without the vodka sauce and extra pesto. Had a little miscommunication on my end about the sauce, so when we picked it up it had a tomato sauce base. We explained what we had thought we ordered and the two guys working quickly made a fresh pie. Very thankful that they were so accommodating. The pizza was delicious with pesto as the base sauce! The dough is the star of the show. We've enjoyed both the regular style and the Detroit style pizzas here. Would love if they started doing some pizzas with other base sauces! Love that they are starting to do late nights with more arcade games, late night pizza, and beer. I think that's super fun and will draw in a cool crowd. Great option since nowhere else is open late. Go get the best pizza on the West Shore!”

“OMG! The best food in Incline Village. From the bread, wines, soups, sauces, appetizers and main course....DELICIOUS! The menu is extensive and diverse. Excellent wine list. Food and sevice off the charts. Our new favorite place in town.”

“Italian shrimp & grits, 10/10 so good!! We also tried the pizza and beers on tap -best food we have had in Tahoe!! (We have been here for 4 days) If you come- it’s a must! White caps pizza will not disappoint!! ????”

“I found this via ratings and it is a fantastic place. The drinks are made extremely well. A great concoction that I actually am going to copy. I had the halibut and it was fantastic. The service was exceptional. I highly recommend Reservations.”

“Absolutely fabulous food beautifully presented. They made my friend's birthday dinner truly memorable. She doesn't like fish, so they substituted vegetarian dishes for her two fish courses.”

“Amazing chicken! It would be nice if they were able to expand the seating, but we've had it to go and it still is great even at home. Galbi and K-sauce are our favorites with honey mustard.”

“We had a great meal! The lunch special was a great deal and perfect for our kids to share. We also got wings which were delicious and not breaded or too greasy. We also ordered a medium pizza. Everything was fresh and flavorful. Our server was SO sweet and patient with our kids. Highly recommend this place especially for families.”

“Perfect lunch place. Great for kids since it's near the airport playground too. They can be busy during lunch rush, but you can call in orders in advance which us helpful.”

“beer seems to be getting better by the month. i'm excited to see what they come out with during the next few months. noticed a busy dart night one night i was there. my favorite thing to do is grab taco bell and then a pint and sit around the fire eating my greasy $2 burritos. summertime is busy and i hope they figure out a way to pump out beers (maybe a window?) cause it'll be crowded”

“Came here on a weeknight during a trip to Tahoe. We were seated immediately in a cozy area in the back, and our server was very kind and attentive. We started with sashimi and lobster tempura. The sashimi tasted fresh, and the tempura was perfectly crispy. We split the Thai seafood soup as our main. This was super flavorful and not too salty. We really enjoyed the service and ambiance here too!”

“This place was killer! The food? Bang on. Coffee? Heaven in a cup. And the owner? Absolute legend. Felt super welcome and the vibes were just right. Honestly, can't wait to go back. If you haven't been, what are you waiting for? Check it out!”

“tiny parking lot but yummy food!! both the french onion soup and the chicken pot pie were delicious. i didn’t get any drinks (seems like it’s just dispensed by a machine) but there are tea and coffee options available. it was lovely to sit by the fire and read/relax for a bit.”

“This is a small place but worth it. The food was spot on. The wait staff was there when we needed him and not when we didn't. I personally drink high end Tequila. The staff's recommendation was not high end but it was OK.”

“Muffin and bagel are both delicious, and you can tell that they have different intentions than chain or restaurant breakfasts. The coffee is surprisingly delicious, and the owner is very polite and courteous. This is my second visit to this small shop and I still like it very much.”

“Glad we found this place. Quaint atmosphere inside with a lot of personality. They even sell nice lego sets! I ordered the breakfast plate which was a good portion of scrambled eggs, bacon, and tater tots. My white mocha latte was delicious. Service was superb!Kid-friendliness: Very kid-friendly. They even have a bin of toys to play with.”

“Highly recommend their burritos. We tried both the chicken and tri tip burrito. Both were flavorful and large. It is a small place that does a brisk business. Many people were picking up orders they had called ahead for. We walked in and ordered to go. Service was quick! We tried both the mild and medium sauce. The medium could have used more of a kick/spice.”

“This place was very accommodating to the vegan/GF community! My mom and I loved it!Vegetarian options: Vegan/GFDietary restrictions: Vegan/GF friendlyWheelchair accessibility: Ramp right out front”

“Great coffee shop! They roast all their coffee up in Truckee and they are on point. Big fan of the single origins that are rich in flavor without any acidity or bitterness.Had a bagel sandwich that was bombGreat atmosphere for work and they are super dog friendly, even insideStaff is cool, fun, and knowledgeable”

“Visiting this cafe shop in Incline Village felt like stepping into a movie scene. The snowfall added a magical touch to the already stunning panoramic views. The food and coffee were both exceptional. It’s more than just a visit—it’s an experience. I can’t recommend it enough!”

“Great food, amazing service, the staff here is always happy & friendly towards their customers, even when there's a line out the door. Thank you so much for always being my neighborhood comfort food go-to!”

“I come up to north Lake Tahoe a few times a year. Lanzas makes the best minestrone soup I've ever had. I love it here. The neighborhood charm. The old school style classic Italian American food. I got Easy kind service, from a family owned small business.”

“It's a very charming restaurant and we were super lucky to get a Wednesday evening 5:30 PM reservation a mere 5 hours in advance. Our dinner experience was amazing! The food came out hot, the flavors and sauces were outstanding, and the service was fantastic. We ordered the Lobster Wontons appetizer, White Shrimp Fresh Sea Scallops & ¼ Maine Lobster Tail with Fettucine entree, and the Oregon Petrale Sole daily fish special. The soup of the day was Cauliflower soup. The lobster wonton appetizer came with 3 wontons. The ginger, shiitake mushrooms, and other seasonings paired very well with the lobster. The Chinese mustard and red chili dipping sauce served on the side was HOT and we felt the wontons had plenty enough flavor without the need to add any hot sauce. Rating: 8 I wasn't expecting to like the cauliflower soup but it was really really good! I'm not a huge fan of cauliflower or of soup in general, but the cauliflower flavor had a perfect subtleness and was accented with a touch of cumin seasoning. Rating: 8 My wife had the Oregon Petrale Sole. She described it as very flavorful (blend of lemon, garlic, and mushroom flavors and a light panko coating) and cooked to perfection. Rating: 10 I ordered the Shrimp, Scallop, Lobster Tail with Fettucine. OMG! Per the menu: "sautéed w/ red bell peppers, fresh basil, tomatoes, mushrooms and lemon garlic butter; cheese & onion." The sauce was sooooo amazing and perfectly compliment the seafood. I couldn't stop raving about the flavor even after arriving back at the hotel room. Rating: 10+ Our server was John and we thoroughly enjoyed the additional side conversations with him throughout our seating. (Ask him if he's ever tried moose.)”

“Everytime i have come to this restaurant, they have been ABSOLUTELY wonderful! They are always quick, happy and make it a welcoming environment.The food is delicious and made to order! So many different combinations to choose from!Thank you Inclined! I will definitely be back!”

“Great vegan food. The owner is very knowledgeable and careful with her food prep to avoid cross contamination for non vegan items and allergens. We had the veggie sandwich and veggie burrito and both were excellent. They were full of a variety of fresh veggies and well seasoned.”

“A very quaint restaurant with an intimate bar area. All the food is good. It's a locals spot which tells you something! The Bruschetta is soooo good and the aged balsamic that it comes with is fantastic!!”

“Yelp does it again, helping us find another fabulous establishment. We were quite hungry after a drive and a little sightseeing and ready for a late lunch, preferably something healthy-ish. While there was an A-frame sign out front that said Bluefish, the establishment we walked into was more of a liquor store with small bar in front. We initially thought we were in the wrong place. Perhaps some of the reviews had mentioned this, but I hadn't dug deep. Luckily, after walking out of the store, we walked back in towards the back and located Bluefish.While there are some Poké combos you can choose from, you can also customize your own bowl. The four of us each decided to customize and we were not disappointed! At an hour before closing they were out of white rice, but we were all OK with eating brown rice (plus adds to health factor). You can select your protein, rice and/or salad, sauce(s) and unlimited toppings. I got spicy tuna, salmon, Yuzu something rather (Mayo) and garlic ponzu sauces and many yummy toppings. The fish was quite fresh tasting, the sauces on point (yuzu Mayo was great!) and the rice cooked just right. I really like that you can select an unlimited amount toppings when you customize your bowl, even avocado! The service was also good, especially the young lady working the front. She helped me with my canned margarita order, sharing a little story about the drink's creator, and was sweet enough to put my drink in a glass with ice. The liquor store also has quite a nice selection of wine, liquor, beer and other canned / bottled adult beverages (sorry, no pictures of their selection). And the section adjacent to Bluefish has a small selection of Asian market goods. My fam gave me props for finding another good place to eat at. 4.5 stars. Thanks Yelp for not letting us down!”
