50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Zephyr Cove

“The food was amazing! Beer was cold. The service was top notch. Hope to visit again this week before leaving for home.“

“Nice place tucked into the back of a strip mall. The server was nice and the sushi was good. We got like 5 different kinds and they were all pretty good. The one funny thing we all noted was the strange and very mellow music that was playing the whole time we were there. It was a little bizzare, but the food was good, and that's all that matters.“

“Enjoyed my breakfast at the restaurant. Chorizo & papas burrito was the best.“

“We had a small wedding reception here on August 19. We started in the garden until rain moved in and MacDuffs quickly moved us inside and upstairs. The food and service were excellent. Our waitress was awesome and working with MacDuffs beforehand was great too. We were a party of 18 from Michigan and everyone was very complimentary! Highly recommend!!’“

“We’ve stayed at the Tahoe South location twice now and have loved it both times. The staff is always friendly, helpful, and quick to jump in if we need anything. The vibe is great in the summer and just as cozy during snowstorms. It’s so nice having an onsite coffee shop for my morning coffee and an onsite brewery to hang out at night. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Great vegan and other dishes.“

“Good energy all around, our server was awesome. He came to check on us multiple times, and left us alone when we were going to town. Ribs melting off the bone, tri tip so soft it makes your mouth water. If you enjoy bbq you will love this place. Open late 12 am since I've been here. We are going to come back soon“

“Great music fun bonfires and lights . I enjoyed the strawberry milkshake beer .“

“Brian and Jill were great to work with!“

“The food was absolutely delicious. We ate the Burrata, Rack of Lamb, and Short Rib, everything complimented each other very well. The meats were cooked perfectly. I genuinely think this is the best meal I've had in a long time. The ambiance is perfect for couple looking for a quiet date night in Tahoe. I think my only critique is that there should be 3 pieces of lamb in that dish instead of 2. A perfect evening to eat a delicious meal and spot a bear strolling down the street after dinner.“

“We are in Tahoe for a wedding and stopped by Bare Roots early this morning. Best dirty chai I’ve ever had 🌟🤍“

“Had a great experience. Nick the bartender was great. Friendly, polite and attentive. Would definitely return.“

They have a weekly trivia contest, and sometimes sponsor special events with outside food vendors and various expert artists and craftspeople.“

“Lovely local bar with excellent drinks and wonderful service. Adrian at the bar was outstanding and made me feel right at home visiting as a solo female traveler. Tons of locals and tourists alike, everyone was friendly with a laid back atmosphere and pool tables. The place was very clean, organized and I loved their merchandise. Highly recommend.“

“💜💜💜 great place to eat!!!!“

“Food was INCREDIBLE, I ordered the vegetable pho with vegan broth and the chow fun both were great and our waiter was supper nice. We sat outside but the inside of the restaurant looked clean and very welcoming. Highly recommend as a dinner option if your in Tahoe.“

“Food is very good. Service was great - Nicole D is charming and efficient! We will be back (again)!“

“Great hospitality, even better food! The staff and owners are friendly and welcoming!“

“Lovely breakfast near the lake off the beaten track.“

“Will start off by saying the food was great! However the hostess was another story. Recwntly had dinner on 8/11/24. The hostess would not let us sit at the table to start ordering drinks because we were missing 2 out of the 8 people in our group. needless to say we already had 6 ready to be seated. once we were seated the table next to us had the umbrella slanted. this caused the table to fly over from a gust of wind shattering a plate and cutting my leg. the stay was kind enough to provided a wipe and some bandaid. We continued our night until the hostess decided to empty water cups from other guest into the flower bed behind us. Which then caused the dirt to splash up on one of our guest white shirts and be covered in mud. A smug sorry was replied out. As stated before the food was terrific and the wait staff was great but the hostess needs to be replaced.“

“I recently visited Tahoe Bear Tea House, and I can honestly say it’s one of the best bubble tea shops I’ve ever been to. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm, cozy, and inviting. The interior has a modern yet relaxing vibe, making it the perfect spot to hang out with friends, do some studying, or just enjoy a quiet break with a refreshing drink. The drinks are absolutely amazing. I tried their classic milk tea with boba, and it was spot on—smooth, creamy, and perfectly balanced in sweetness. The tapioca pearls were cooked just right: soft, chewy, and flavorful, which is something I always look for in a good boba shop. I also tried one of their specialty fruit teas, and it was so refreshing and full of natural flavor. What I love most is that you can really taste the quality of the ingredients; nothing feels artificial or overly sweet. The menu has a great variety to choose from—whether you’re into traditional milk teas, fruity blends, or creative specialty drinks, there’s definitely something that will catch your attention. It’s clear that they put thought and care into crafting their drinks, and it shows in every sip. Aside from the drinks, the customer service was outstanding. The staff were friendly, patient, and more than willing to help me pick something from the menu since it was my first time there. They took the time to explain the different options, and their recommendations were spot on. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers and want you to have the best experience possible. Overall, Tahoe Bear Tea House is a gem. It’s not just a bubble tea shop—it’s a place where you can relax, enjoy high-quality drinks, and feel welcomed every time you visit. I’m already looking forward to coming back and trying more of their drinks. If you’re in the area and craving boba, this is definitely the place to go!“

“Always satisfied when my Family comes here!“

“One of the most friendly restaurant staff I have ever encountered. Made sure we were taken care of the entire way. I even think my daughter had a little crush on our server Danny 😂 ohh and the pizza was great too!“

“Food is fine but nothing special. Service, drinks and atmosphere are very good! Pizzas are disappointing but the white pizza is definitely the best one and imo the only one worth the price. Sandwiches are good. The side salads are really good. Everything carries the "Tahoe tax" aka overpriced. Love the vibes and we come here often just to eat around the fire pits“

“I'm a big gelato fan, especially hazelnut flavor. they have a good one here :)“

“This is my green tea boba place in SLT!!“

“Great spot inside the BaseCamp. The people are fantastic!“

“A true South Lake Tahoe gem! Incredible selection of both Chinese and Thai food. The staff is super friendly, especially Pom, who helped us customize the perfect order. The food was absolutely spot on. A fantastic go-to spot for anyone visiting the area!“

“Best chicken I have ever had! Amaze balls delicious! Ribs are to die for!“
