Here is what we noticed: - Our reservation was at 5:30, the time they open, and a bunch of people arrived all at once, but they quickly seated us all - They only serve beer and wine, but their wine list was really good and bottle prices were very reasonable for a restaurant. - Our server came over pretty quickly despite so many people arriving at once. - The menu is pretty broad with lots of different options, and there were many other specials as well. - My wife and I ordered the rack of lamb and the fettuccine with shrimp with added scallops. Both dishes came with complementary soup first. It's difficult to say which dish we liked more since both were excellent. The bread and hummus on the table was a welcome addition, and was especially good for sopping up the wonderful sauce from each dish. - We got tempted by dessert and opted for the bread pudding with a side of homemade ice cream. Wow wow wow is all I can say! - Service was great...There were three people working the entire place so service was attentive, but not overbearing. Bottom line: I almost don't want to rave too much because I don't want the place to get too crowded, but it's better than any place around that we've been to. We'll be back for sure!

If you or a loved one has a severe, high-stakes food allergy, be aware that this kitchen has demonstrated complete and utter failure in baseline allergen protocol.

We started with the sage and cheddar biscuits, which were wonderful, and the glazed pork belly with chili crunch with toasted cashews - the combo of the nuts and pork was really delicious. We then had the Niman Ranch pork chop and grilled steak frites. Pork chop came with creamy polenta, mushrooms, and a blueberry glaze - I'm hungry just writing about all this. The chop was grilled to perfection - moist (no pink meat) and nicely charred for the flavor. The glaze is a hint of sweetness and the creamy polenta is a winner. The mushrooms are an excellent compliment. The grilled steak was also cooked to perfection - medium rare. The flat iron steak is such a great cut of meat. The fries in duck fat were very good. For dessert, we had a chocolate masterpiece. The meal was well priced considering the location and the time of year. And while the meal was special, it was the service that really made the experience special. While being utterly professional, the staff is also friendly and on top of it. I regret I didn't ask the hostess her name, but she was excellent - filled our water glasses without being asked once, and asked if we would like clean utensils after our appetizers. Our server was also excellent. I'd have more pictures usually, but we were so hungry after a LONG day at Sand Harbor, we forgot!

We decided to make the trip from Reno to try Sage Leaf for brunch with two friends. First warning:…read moreparking was a little insane! I'd recommend looking into parking options ahead of time and giving yourself some extra time before your reservation. We were seated right away. Indoor seating is somewhat limited, but they have plenty of outdoor seating for nice days. The atmosphere inside was pleasant, everything was clean, and the seating was comfortable. We were greeted by a very nice woman who got our coffee orders--and this is where my biggest complaint starts. I drink my coffee black, so there's nowhere for bad coffee to hide. Unfortunately, this was some of the worst coffee I've had in a long time. It was extremely watered down and almost completely tasteless. I actually ordered whole milk just to give it some flavor, which is something I normally never do. They also don't have an espresso machine, so switching to an Americano or another espresso drink wasn't an option. For a brunch restaurant, the coffee was surprisingly disappointing. I ordered the Eggs Benedict. It was good, but nothing that would make me order it again instead of trying something different if we return. One thing I did appreciate was how easily they accommodated one of our friends who is vegetarian. There was no fuss or confusion, and they made it simple for her to find something that worked. One real standout, though, was our waitress. She was fantastic--friendly, attentive, and had a great sense of when to check on the table without constantly interrupting our conversation. She seemed to appear exactly when we needed something and otherwise let us enjoy brunch with our friends. I really appreciated her style of service. Overall, everyone at the table agreed we'd give Sage Leaf another try. It's a nice place with excellent service, and they were very accommodating, but coming all the way from Reno, it's a bit of a stretch for bad coffee and food that, at least on this visit, was just okay. If we're in the area again, we'd certainly give it another shot.

I actually dipped my mashed potatoes in it. Note: It was very fast service. It is on the pricier side but it was also the best meal we had in the Tahoe area. No bread included with our entrees.

We met some longtime friends for dinner last night and it was relaxing and tasty! We started off with some robust drinks and apps! Ahi Napolean was the highlight with the BBQ/Spicy prawns coming in a close second. Three of us ordered the Lemongrass Ginger Brick Chicken and it was tender and juicy with just the right amount of Asian spices. We all raved YUMMY!! My wife had the Rack of Lamb which she enjoyed and I got to sneak a couple of bites...tender tasty. My friend's son had the Grilled Ribeye which was massive and oozing with juice. The Finale! Dessert is never an option with my Sicilian taste buds so Tiramisu and Pistachio Cheese Cake sedated and cleansed our palates! The overall dining experience was good as we sat outside on the patio with a perfect evening and no bugs in site! It was fairly busy and the servers were definitely having to add a couple of steps in their service. It's a beautiful spot almost on the lake and if you're a golfer, Old Brockway GC is a stunner and has some great history to go along with the perfect greens. Enjoy!

On top of that the hostess was incredibly rude.

As someone who genuinely enjoys gambling and visiting casinos, Jim Kelley's Tahoe Nugget was…read moreunfortunately a disappointing experience. The casino is very small and feels quite dated compared to many other gaming properties in the area. During my visit, I spent a considerable amount of time and money playing, but never really found the experience entertaining or enjoyable. While I understand that gambling outcomes are never guaranteed, the overall experience lacked the excitement and fun that typically keeps me engaged. The property itself also felt dirty and dingy in several areas, which took away from the atmosphere. In addition, I never encountered any hosts or beverage service during my visit, making the casino feel understaffed and lacking in customer service. Overall, this wasn't a casino I enjoyed spending time in, and it's not one I would recommend to friends or fellow gamblers. There are simply better gaming options in the Tahoe area. Unfortunately, I don't plan on returning.

Things escalated quickly for no reason--she took our beer, accused us of "refusing to leave" without ever asking us to leave, and threatened to get me arrested! This behavior felt discriminatory and completely unprofessional. No one should be treated this way. I would not recommend this place!! Especially for people of color!

Our server was friendly and knowledgeable, and she did a great job walking us through the day's specials as well as some of her favorite picks. I started with the In Crowd cocktail and really enjoyed it. The coconut, basil, and bitters balanced beautifully with the gin, making for a super refreshing drink that felt especially perfect for spring or summer weather. We followed our server's advice and ordered four items, two larger plates and two starters, and everything was delicious. Here's the breakdown: Trout Dip: Fantastic smoky, fishy flavor in all the right ways, served with crostinis. The only small nitpick was that the crostinis were overdone for my taste and shattered loudly when bitten into. Grilled Prawns: Super meaty and seasoned and sauced perfectly, with a bed of slaw that balanced the dish nicely. Scallops: Seared to perfection and in an addicting red Thai curry sauce. I was intrigued by the combo of kimchi, grits, and curry and have to say that it somehow blends amazingly well. Lamb Chops: Cooked to a perfect medium rare, expertly seasoned, with little gaminess and a cooling yogurt sauce that really brought the dish together. All in all, it was a fantastic meal and easy to see why this place is such a favorite among both locals and tourists. The food, the drinks, and the service all come together to make this a great option for any occasion from a casual night out (us) to celebrating something memorable like a graduation (several were happening while we were there).

The stuffed Spanish piquillo peppers went well with the salad. Our last three dishes were the ribs, grilled prawns and the ricotta gnuddi.

We were pretty happy with our dishes. The server was attentive and explained several dishes. It is always a good idea to make a reservation, especially on the weekends and busy seasons. They have a bar, high tops and a regular dining area but keep in mind the place isn't huge.
