After 5 days, I felt like a friend to the staff. To feel the love to that level is not typical. We WILL be back, and I am confident the staff will continue to stay elite. 5 stars no doubt! Humbly, the Authentic Guy All tings are good cO

They have salads, burgers/sandwiches, soup, and charcuterie as other options. I started with the Coybow Pass, which is a mezcal based drink. The clothespinned dried orange slice was a nice touch. The fondue was a mix of various cheeses served in a traditional pot, with apples, wild board sausage, brussels sprouts, and focaccia. This hit the spot after a chilly day of skiing. Service was as you would expect for the Ritz - super polite and professional. If you're staying here or just want to duck in for a fancier break, the Living Room is worth a try.

Great day-excursion for any Ritz Carlton guests who want to have a lake experience…read more Experience: all-inclusive experience that includes full access to the lake house which includes kayaks, paddle boards, jacuzzi, inside/outside lounge spaces, and food (snacks & lunch) and non-schoolchildren drinks. Alcoholic drinks are available for purchase. Cost: $199/person, all inclusive (except alcohol) Environment: two-story house with around 50 lounge chairs and a couple conversation areas including some indoor areas with TVs. Staff: Jones, TJ, and Chef Angel were the best! Always attentive and able to help with anything. Chef made us an amazing vegetarian lunch consisting of a beyond burger and roasted veggies. Almost all the snacks were vegetarian/vegan. Verdict: Absolute must for all Ritz Carlton guests! Service was great, food was amazing, and the experience was unrivaled. Enjoy the lake without staying at the lake. Tips #1: Marriott ambassadors can get a 10% discount. Tip #2: there are limited spaces, so reserve early Tip #3: there is a free shuttle to/from the Ritz or you can drive Tip #4: leave on the 9:30 shuttle and arrive first to get a great spot for the day (lounge chair areas) Tip #5: pre-purchase a bottle of champagne so it's on ice at the lake house, ready for you to enjoy Next Time: would definitely visit again. Worth the money for an all-day experience!

We were quickly seated and our server checked up on us frequently. We were impressed by the decor of wine, leather seats, wooden branches, and relaxing music. We ordered the Meatballs, Chicken Pot Pie, and French Onion & Gnocchi soup. The pie's unique presentation was welcoming. The bread was crispy and the chicken mixed with vegetables had the right ratio. The soup went down warm and satisfied my chills. The onion wasn't overpowering the gnocchi. And of course, we had a paired wine that was suggested. We'll be back to try the other fusion dishes.

I'll pause and acknowledge that chicken pot pie isn't typically something one orders out. But having said that, chicken pot pie isn't something I'd expect any restaurant to mess up! What I got was dismally disappointing. It was at best a watery chicken soup served with two pieces of puff pastry. The chicken was probably the leftover of that used for other chicken dishes. To be fair, they had a good crab cake.

We also ordered the cheeseburger and steak tartare (not pictured), and my friends were obsessed with both. Definitely a Tahoe staple and a spot I'd come back to again and again.

It gets crowded at the dinner hour so reservations are recommended, but we lucked out and got a table in the speak-easy style bar. Since I was driving I had an N/A sparkling but the craft cocktails looked amazing. Everything my friend and I tried and shared was perfectly constructed and portioned. We tried the Zucchini blossoms (lightly crispy batter fried) deliciousness, the burrata salad (that had just enough burrata to taste, and none to waste). After seeing someone else get pizza on the way in we had to try it, and opted for the mushroom and asparagus pizza. It was worth the calories, but also light and crispy, and just right for two ladies to share with a few appetizers.

I was a little concerned on my drive up to the spot, since you turn off the main road, go up the hill and onto a side street with more than its fair share of potholes. We had a later reservation (7:30 pm) and even though it was a Friday night, the dining room was fairly quiet by the time we arrived. I was seated next to the window and my server, Lee, introduced himself. I was there in time to see the sun dip below the hills and the lights come up on the Main Street below. It really does offer a picturesque view. My friend arrived and she ordered their "famous" Caesar salad and I got the crispy chicken sandwich. We were both quite happy with our choices. I tried hers and the dressing had a touch more anchovy than I prefer, but that's why I don't order Caesar salads. My chicken sandwich came with a generous heap of fries, lightly spiced, and I enjoyed the cabbage and the fact that the bun held up to the contents well. There is a decent wine selection as well as a full bar and signature cocktails, for those who want to imbibe. I went with a cup of Earl Grey, since I'd driven up from the Bay Area and needed a drop of caffeine to stay alert. We shared their carrot cake for dessert and it hit its mark. Not overly sweet, a hint of cream cheese in the frosting. Lee's service was friendly, but not intrusive. We were well taken care of. The food is more than decent, not groundbreaking, but perfect for a good meal after travel or a long day. It also feels like a local's place, not trying too hard to attract tourists. Don't miss stepping outside on the deck. There's a vintage red neon sign that announces Hilltop Lodge that makes for a fun photo op and another great view.
