    This review is for the Christmas Day buffet in the Mountain Ballroom. The atmosphere was meh, but I knew it would be since it was located in the ballroom. The food options were varied, which is what appealed when I booked. But, the food was mostly all cold, so the overall taste was just average. Disappointing given the price for the buffet. The persimmon pudding with chantilly cream was delicious. Also, we weren't staying at the resort and arrived in the dark. The signage was severely lacking, which made it very hard to find the ballroom driving in the snow.

    Great experience! Food was good. A ham or prime rib option would have been great too, but the sides and soup were spectacular. The hors d' oeuvres were a little lackluster though. But great environment and service. Very family friendly.

    Nice casual restaurant. Friendly service and excellent food. The Ahi appetizer in a cone is a must. The trout was fresh and prepared with a curry sauce ane fresh tomatoes. Th Schnitzel is a favorite. Wine is a deal here with the glass/bottle prices being very reasonable. We ate outside on the deck this time but the inside is cozy. It’s great to have a place in Tahoe City with a variety of good meal choices, friendly service, fair prices and where you can also make a reservation!
