Plan ahead for large crowds on the weekend and parking. Prepare to wait for up to an hour if you're going with a group. While you're waiting you can stroll across the street to check out the water or pop into the market. If it's super busy they don't do to go. The eats I am not a sweets person but I get the chocolate chip waffles every time. I add some sort of fruit on top. They do Benedicts well if you're looking for savory.

Cereal bar, porridge station, dumplings, pastries. There were 4 hot items: fried rice, bacon, potatoes, waffles/pancakes. There's also an omelette station. Overall pretty decent, food tasted pretty average, but good selection. Service was net neutral for us. One day we had a great server who was very attentive, and the next day we had someone who didn't seem like they wanted to be there. Came by to get us drinks once and the next time was to ask if we were ready for the bill. The restaurant itself has great views situated at the corner of a building.

These were surprisingly a solid 8/10. It was well seasoned and the texture was crispy. I didn't love the dipping sauce too much, it had a pepper like taste which I didn't care for. I thought the wings stood out on its own and didn't need a sauce! Cesar salad with chicken: this was an easy 10/10. The salad was fresh, and I knew the salad was going to be delicious because they served it with anchovies. Delicious! The chicken reminded me of rotisserie style. Good stuff. Duck Breast: 8/10, I'm usually skeptical on trying duck since I'm a Peking duck lover at dim sum style restaurants, but this was pretty good. It was cooked perfectly, had a decent amount of meat to it. Came with a side of mash potatoes. Dessert: we ordered the pear pie with vanilla ice cream. This was gooood. An easy 10/10. The crust on this pie was made to perfection and had the best texture. The flavor, full pear slices, with a bite of vanilla ice cream, I meannnn, I was definitely thinking about it the next day. Highly recommend! Our server was also extremely kind and attentive which made our experience even better. Overall great restaurant especially if you're staying at the Village in the Palisades!

It's a little tight for 5 people to have enough table space for everything we ordered. The food was all pretty good - pretty typical diner breakfast food. The orange juice was delicious! Big serving of pancake just wished I had more butter and it's something I likely could've asked for. The only thing I'd say was it took a little bit to get the check but they seemed slammed.

Came in with my 5 year old and a 2 year old for lunch on a Tuesday…read more 56$ for one adult and two kids. Caesar salad was watery, with 0 seasoning. Impossible to add pepper, as the pepper and salt mills on the table hadn't been churned or cleaned in weeks, and I don't trust taking off the lid - if it doesn't shake out, the clumps won't add any flavor. When I say watery, there was less salad dressing (possibly less than a tablespoon of dressing) than water on the lettuce. There was no dressing on the bottom of the bowl; the advantage of a lot of watery lettuce is that there was a nice soup of shredded costco parmesan and water. 6oz of grilled chicken with no seasoning for 20.99. Ordered a plain kids hamburger, received a cheeseburger, charged for a cheeseburger. I don't understand how a cook can mess up an order for a plain, no-topping hamburger, but they did have a sign for "HIRING COOK ALL SHIFTS" out front, so I guess the kitchen is what it is right now. 6 Dino nuggies and approximately 10 French fries on each plate. Didn't even get out of the restaurant before the kids were complaining about the taste; fry oil was rancid or the frozen French fries had de-temped and soaked in thaw starch before re-feezing, air frying, and being served to my kids. When a 2 year old refuses to eat dino nuggies, you know they're dried to a crisp. This is worse than graveyard casino food from the shadiest meth cooks money can't afford, and I've been a security guard for those spots. Didn't even have an ice maker for drinks in here - this place needs to just close up and offer some better tenants the space to do something besides greaseslop. I don't understand how a cafe offering food this bland, flavorless, reheated-in-an-air fryer can stay open on main street in Tahoe City. It was hospital food being served to a number of retirees with digestive conditions.
