40 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Crystal Bay

“Wow just wow (food wise this is not a review of casino itself) usually when i go to eat and see something with a single burger around 12$+ i just know I'm gonna be ripped off but no the burgers here we're genuinely good the price felt worth it, not to mention the Tacos were genuine Mexican tacos even my mother was surprised when she realized a white guy cooked them since he really captured the Mexican spirit in tacos and salsa overall u will be back when i visit reno“

“My husband and I were served the best meal we have ever had. The food, service, ambiance and even the Frank Sanatra playing was perfect. We loved the entire staff. The chef came out to say hello and was so pleasant. We immediately told all our friends and Crysral Bay Steak and Lobster is our number 1 restaurant from now on. Thank you for a great experience! See you soon.“

“Best affordable option in Truckee!“

“Every little detail of Sylva is planned to perfection! The food is exceptionally delicious, with really creative flavors. The service also- so on it, so knowledgeable and genuinely enjoyable. This is our new favorite!!! A total culinary gem! 💎“

“Julian, our server, was delightful! We both got burgers, one with duck fat fries, and I got the strawberry & beet salad. Food was magnificent! Loved the outdoor patio! Wish they would allow happy hour beyond the bar. We wanted drinks but they would not serve them. Had a wonderful time.“

“The food was good overall, but it fell short of expectations. I love the eclectic combinations, and the ingredients were high quality. The scallops and Mac n cheese were elite. The tuna tartare and ribs were very good. The halibut and butter lettuce salad were ordinary. The cookies and cream sandwiches were offensive given the level of the restaurant. It felt like something out of a grocery carton, and ultimately pushed me to give a 4-rating.

Beyond the food, the service and ambience were very good.“

“One of the best restaurants I’ve ever experienced! The staff were amazing too!! Definitely tell all my friends that travel to Tahoe that this is a must try!!“

“Amazing meal every time and owned by incredible people ❤️“

“Let me first begin by saying the waitstaff is incredibly kind, attentive, and friendly. Furthermore, the atmosphere—outside in particular—is just lovely, especially when they have live music; it’s set amidst the Truckee River with heat lamps and a fire pit to keep you toasty and this gem is easily accessible from a bike path no less. Should you order the Strawberry Shortcake, it is enormous and delicious. For these reasons alone, the River Grill should receive 5 stars. The reasons it does not, though they won’t dissuade me from returning, are to follow. I ordered the Grape Martini—unique, intriguing, and my waitstaff gave it a good name. It was good I must say, but it, as one could expect but at the same time not really think to, tastes exactly like grape juice. I did initially have to send it back because it came garnished with cranberries (of which I am allergic) instead of frozen grapes as advertised. You could imagine my chuckle when I watched my waiter, from afar at my table, present it to the hostess and I watched her fish one of the cranberries out of the drink, plop it in her mouth, and hurry away disgusted. They remade my drink which was kind of them but it did take acquiring the taste to not think of Arthur on a Juicy Juice carton. For dinner I ordered the Beef Tenderloin—the asparagus was amazing, the whipped (mashed) potatoes were yummy especially with the Demi Glaze, and the beef itself was good but more on the medium-well side when ordered medium which is kind of getting into semantics I know, however, it was a little dry. I also ordered the Truckee Sourdough but it never came despite being charged for it until brought to attention. For a 20-something who doesn’t have $100 to spend on a fancy dinner often, this combination can feel a little disappointing. Should I have the opportunity to, I would come back to River Grill because it, overall, was a lovely evening.“

“I love pizza! Gathered here with a work group and had a very nice time. Atmosphere was relaxed. Staff was so friendly and helpful. FOOD - first the salad bar was delicious/fresh and so yummy! The pizza?! Amazing! I was really happy to bring some home to enjoy! Go and eat - you will not be disappointed!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Staff was friendly and able to pivot quickly when a small meetup changed to a larger gathering.“

“The food was exceptional. There was a few items that I did not prefer, but the effort was great and the presentations were outstanding. The service was excellent. The bathrooms are not in the restaurant and we're not very conducive of a five star restaurant. But everything else was excellent.“

“Visited Sunday Morning June 11, 2023. Was very impressed with every employee with whom I came in contact. Our meals were excellent and the coffee was the best I have had for years!“

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

“Awesome place!! Great staff, delicious food!“

“I love this place. Great place to eat sushi!“

“let me tell you something. I grew up in Sun Valley. Tahoe is part of me. My sister called the night before. They didnt take reservations. But, we told them what was up. my sisters n I planned a weeks trip for my mother's 78th birthday. We hadn't all been all together since my littlest sister was 4... 36 yrs later we are all in one place. Our mother wanted to see her friends. Basically our second set of parents growing up. We pretty much pretended we were nonchalant about it. Their daughter n us put a scheme together to surprise them all. Weeks of planning. The night staff left a note for the morning staff. They open at noon. The party of three showed up at noon... us, the party of six showed up 10 minutes fashionably late. So we could surprise n give our elderly parents arrhythmia.The staff was awesome! Table ready, James our waiter was spectacular...the food.... awesome. Not many restaurants would be asking as people came in... are you the party of 9? lol my sister from another set of parents...as her mom confused said " no we are a party of 3" and her daughter leaned back and whispered ..." yes we are the party of 9. but they don't know shhhh!" it was spectacular! Thank you to the staff... you all rock! I hope if we ever make it back and you're still are rocking the vibe we got today, we will be there. You all take care of your staff. Today this place made our moment so special. We cant say Thank you enough.“

“First time in... Food was good and the portion was decent. Not very busy and three servers were on. Service was slow I felt and the bartender was less than friendly, charming or outgoing. Maybe they were having an off night, I don't know. I would go back but maybe just for drinks? .“

“A little bit confused about the menu. I ordered the Lox & Bagel meal under Sandwiches section. It should be come with fries or salad. But the server said it doesn't have this option. That meal shouldn't be in the Sandwiches section. I felt upset about it.“

“Great breakfast and wonderful service.“

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

“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.“

“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“

“Great place for some beer with a view, but it doesnt stop there, the food I had was excellent. I had the pleasure of meeting the ownder David during my meal. Great guy, great staff, great food and drink, and excellent view. Support local businesses I would highly suggest giving Tahoe National Brewing a try.“

“We love the shrimp or fish tacos and yummy shoestring fries! Well drinks are a nice size with a nice sample of beer on tap.“

“Best food we have had in Tahoe. Period !!!! Try the onion rings Fat cat style. !!!“

“Deliciosa la comida y un excelente servicio ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“We ordered two cauliflower crust pizzas and a salad for pick up. The cauliflower crust was not an option on the online menu so submitted the order verbally via phone. I figured the cauliflower crust would cost more but I almost fell over when picked up the pizza and told it was $71! Really not sure why I didn't just walk out and tell them to stick the pizza. At this crazy price, I expected an exceptional pizza however, it was anything but. First of all, it was NOT cauliflower pizza crust! Second, it was cold and the crust was hard, with very little sauce. Extremely disappointing.... pass on this overpriced garbage!“

“Amazing place been a while last time I’ve been here“

“Great food and beer - and nice people serving 👍“

“Delicious food with a great atmosphere“

“Best Cheese Burger I have ever had!“

“Great evening stop. Was just out pub crawling with my girl, happened in, and was immediately greeted by staff. Helped point us to good drinks on tap. Then had a great conversation with the owner Chris, who compt us a couple of shots of something that went down like candy. Can't wait to drop back in and try the food next time.“

“One of our favorite places“

“We hopped all over incline and couldn’t find food Open after 9pm!! Thankfully right before 10 we got THE BEST service from Chantel at Cutthroat. She made me a BOMB peach Bourbon Buzz that was so gingery and delicious. We also ordered a cheesesteak, 2 burgers and mediterranean pasta TOGO. ALL FANTASTIC! She also gave us a really great recommendation for karaoke across the street which we did partake in. CHEERS“

“A go to place whilst in the carnelian Bay Area :“

“We arrived just 15 minutes before closing with our whole family, but they were kind enough to feed us anyway, and we were so grateful. An authentic Thai restaurant with quality ingredients, well-balanced flavors, and a nice range of spice levels to choose from! The tom kha soup was a huge hit with everyone. We definitely recommend it if you love Thai food. The service was excellent — thank you for taking care of us even at closing time; we’ll be back soon.

Atmosphere: 4 stars — I’m deducting only because of the design aesthetic, but that’s just my personal preference.“

“WOW Summit y’all knock it out of the park not one but two nights in a row!!! Food, drinks, service and atmosphere all spot on!!! Keep it up Summit we needed a great smokehouse in the area and here it is“

“This is a good place to stop and have lunch during your Northstar ski experience. However, I can't give it five stars because the prices are at least double the normal cost. That applies to everything sold here. Options for vegan or vegetarian guests are very limited. All that aside, it's a nice ski lodge, and the food is fine if you like burgers, fries, pizza, chicken tenders, etc. Lines are usually short, and the staff is friendly and helpful. It is clean and tidy.“

“I ordered the Swedish pancakes, absolutely delicious! Friendly staff, great service! I will return“
