Best Casual Restaurants in Truckee

Fair lunch this afternoon. Pleasant lake view from my window table. I started with the French onion soup. I remembered it being better on my last visit. Rather unremarkable this time. Next I had the bacon wrapped 7oz.filet Mignon with crispy French fries. The fries were quite tasty and as crispy as advertised. The filet was perfectly cooked medium rare. Fair selection of wines by the glass. Service was adequate.

Food was excellent and the service was top tier. The waitress was very attentive and friendly, and seated us next to the fireplace when the patrons left. That was a nice touch because it was snowing, outside, so the fireplace made the ambience nice and cozy.

We had the roasted chicken breast and short ribs. Delicious. Our waiter, Michael, was very pleasant and attentive.

Amazing food in a lovely, warm setting. The staff was extremely friendly and you can see the magic happening in the open kitchen. The booths were private and perfect for date night. The ingredients were very fresh - I highly recommend the black cod and mushroom dish.

Great food and great service with a beautiful view of the snow covered mountains. The menu has a variety of good options and the portions were generous.
