The food here was not the high level we expected based on the prices. I had the ribeye with a potato-based side dish. The ribeye was good, but not the most tender. The side dish was unbalanced in flavor. My wife had the short ribs and she said the sauce was a little too salty in flavor. The service here was top notch and the atmosphere was very nice, but the dining area was nearly empty.

Food was great as well as the view. Cant complain. We had 3pm reservation. I know it’s superbowl Sunday. I get it but they should have anticipated it beforehand. Honestly, it’s not even packed at all. Tried changing seats due to superbowl as we wanted to talk. Asked a guy if we can transfer to the other side, quieter, but was told to go to the host which I truly understand but then, a couple who were sitting near our table, they transferred to the other side and they were able to. He permitted it without telling them to approach the host. Took 40 minutes for them to get our orders and we noticed the ones who arrived later than us, they took their order and were served first. We had our food after an 58 minutes. Disappointing.

One of my favorite places to come eat and enjoy the view of the lake. Love the large bar area where you can just walk in 1st come 1st served and the fire place with live music occasionally throughout the year. I love coming for fish taco Fridays in the winter where they do a raffle every hour when you buy a drink or fish taco around 6-9ish. They post events on insta and online. I love their food and especially the deviled eggs, pomegranate ribs, soups, salads with salmon added, bacon burger, and salmon plates. I always bring anyone visiting me here for the ambience and service. Reservation recommended during peak season.

Just had dinner here for Valentine’s Day. The food was so good and the staff was fast and friendly. They had a special but we stuck with the normal menu and we were not disappointed. Please try the brownie with vanilla ice cream. It was from out of this world!

I like the food and the vibe here. Perfect water views on the deck. Some of the food we got was very good 10/10, highly recommend the tuna poke and the fish tacos. Fish tacos come with perfectly seasoned and grilled fish. The pizzas we got the kids cheese and the Rivas pizza were both meh. I didn’t even wanna take leftovers home. The fish and chips were fine, your basic usual nothing wrong with it. The Thai chicken wrap was not good but what else do you except ordering fake Thai food at a non Thai restaurant. I did overall like this place

My wife, I and another couple went for happy hour drinks and appetizers for our first evening in South Lake Tahoe. The overall experience was awesome!! Even though the weather was rainy, we enjoyed a view of the Lake and our waiter/bartender killed it for us. Excellent drinks (Kracken my Woody, and Wet Woody) and the coconut shrimp, crab cakes, and homemade chips were great! Hats off to Dillon and his waitress that I didn’t get her name! We will back for sure.

Very good spot with nice food.
The price is good for the portion and ambience.
There are heaters so you won’t feel cold.
The server kept checking on us frequently, refilling our soda and water

I will come back!

Awesome atmosphere for any size group! Food was spectacular and very tasty! Attention to detail is a great bonus for this top notch restaurant! We had the zucchini and crab cakes and ribeye. It was all perfect after a sunset cruise!
