Tri-Tip disappointment I came in after hearing multiple rave reviews from locals about the barbecue so I tried the tri-tip platter. Sadly it's exactly as described: thinly sliced roast beef not worth $30 Additionally, the video poker does not offer comped drinks on a $20 credit Where is Harvey in the quality control? read more

This place is a vibe and I must say, I love the location, but the food really didn't do it for me, especially given the price point. First the vibes. Sitting near the top of Kingsbury Grade puts you at a point where you feel nestled amongst the towering pines and able to veer just above the tree line. The patio has an incredible view and makes you feel nestled amongst the dense forest. A most excellent place to enjoy a drink and some bites. Inside has a cabin vibe with wood paneling and lots of signage decorating the walls. The high ceilings make it a bit noisy but it's a fun space too. Service was on point, friendly and fast. Considering how busy they were on a beautiful Saturday afternoon, I was quite amazed at how efficient they were with everything. We were a large party and got seated quickly. Drink orders were taken and delivered in what seemed like seconds and then food orders place, which came back equally fast. Now on the food. The portions are quite generous but if you're going to tout great bbq I truly expect that's what you'll receive, but I didn't feel it lived up to the hype. My pulled pork plate came with a generous portion, but I found the pork itself to be overly shredded, lacking any meatiness and bark, and just blah. It needed the bbq sauce, which was also pretty average in my opinion. I ordered fries coleslaw and beans for sides. Fries were basic and the beans and slaw were similar to what you'll find at a grocery store. Both were overly sweet and didn't have a lot of flavor beyond that. On top of that, the slaw arrived quite a while after my plate, right at the point I was ready to say forget it frankly. Finding it un memorable was just insult to injury. Overall, come for the drinks and views, maybe share a bite, but trust the average here because it's telling the truth right now. With the food kicked up, this would be a solid spot. read more

Oh my goodness! I could not have been more disappointed in the California Tri-Tip Sandwich. I do want to say that the meat smelled so good & I think it had a good flavor. But honestly it was sliced so thinly that it was hard to tell. 1) They sliced the tri-tip more like a roast beef. Oh my gosh! SOO disappointing! I was expecting those nice thick pieces of Tri-tip in my sandwich. 2) They slopped mayonnaise all over the bread! :( 3) Also added bacon, lettuce, & tomato You can call a Tri-tip sandwich anything you want to call it, but that doesn't mean you should add all of the things...Tri-tip is just one of those classics you really shouldn't mess with like that. It was just such a huge disappointment. It's really a shame because their meat has the potential to make a great sandwich. But not slicing the meat so thinly you can barely know it's there, and definitely not with all that other stuff that does *not* belong on/with Tri-tip. read more

Came back here again and we all felt hugely underwhelmed. To be fair, all the sides were amazing and the service was great. The sauces were good, though there was little distinction between the three. The meats however... The ribs were dry and had little smoke flavor. The chicken was so dry that the rest of my family wouldn't eat any. The tritip was cut oddly and dry. The pulled pork was grainy and dry. When I go for bbq, I go for the meats, and the meats let us down. read more

Gorgeous views & looks like a nice place to play video poker, have drinks & try the BBQ. I ordered the Smoked Sausage Breakfast Burrito since they serve breakfast from 8:30-2p. It was a bit dry, sausage was a lil saltier for me, my bf said it was too spicy, chips were totally bland & the pico was awful. All three BBQ sauces tasted the same to me, Vinegar, Mild & Hot. The eggs & hash browns in the Burrito were the best part. The bartender lady that works on Tues. 5/ 5 at 10:30a did a great job by herself! 5 stars for her. read more

Our group of 5 stopped in for lunch on a Monday afternoon after our rental host recommended it, and it was super close to the house. There was only one other group there when we arrived so we asked to sit at a round table and got some pushback that we'd "have to move if a group of 6 came in," which felt a little unnecessary given how empty it was. I had the Smokehouse French Dip. The meat itself was good, but unfortunately the bread was pretty burnt, as you can see in the photo. My husband got the Smokehouse Cheesesteak, which is another one of our go-to sandwiches. Overall, it was just okay. Nothing bad enough that we wouldn't come back, especially if we were staying nearby, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. Convenient if you're in the area, but probably not a destination lunch spot. read more

We stopped by Fox & Hound Smokehouse Grill & Bar around 9pm on a Sunday and were honestly so pleasantly surprised. We were greeted right when we walked in and told to grab any table, which immediately set a relaxed, welcoming tone. The vibe is very cozy cabin-style with good music, games on the TVs, and they even had crayons and paper ready for our toddler (huge win). Waters came out right away, complete with a twisty straw for the little one, and oddly enough... really good water? No tap taste at all. Maybe Tahoe water is just superior. We ordered the smokehouse French dip and the Cali tri-tip sandwich, both with fries, and wow. Both sandwiches were genuinely delicious and way better than we expected. We tried all three BBQ sauces and absolutely loved the vinegar-based one... SO good. Great food, family-friendly, and just an all-around solid spot. We definitely want to come back before we leave Tahoe. read more

Absolutely delicious BBQ, maybe the best we've had, and we've had a lot over the years. This was an early dinner with friends and we were hungry. There were four of us. Couldn't decide what to get on the menu then noticed the combo meal that serves 4-6. Sorry I can't remember the exact name! It's the first item on the top left under BBQ. WOW. Our server, Heather, quickly brought out a monstrous tray of amazing food! You can see in the photo that everything, and I mean everything, was fabulous. We ate what we could and all took home leftovers, which was a huge thrill since it was so good! There were games on the tvs but we could still have a great conversation. At least three people came to our table and asked if they could take a photo of our meal. It was that stunning. The service was great and we really had a special evening with old friends. read more

After a day of skiing at Heavenly mountain I stopped in for a drink and a dinner. I was met at the front door and offered my choice of seats. I picked the bar seating for convenience. They have gambling machines at each bar spot, making eating a little tricky. But they have custom platers that fit over the machine so your plates aren't awkward. I got an old fashioned that was perfect. I also ordered a pulled chicken sandwich with a simple side salad with balsamic vinaigrette. The sandwich was tasty, albeit a little messy to eat. Think a tasty chicken sloppy Joe. The salad was simple, but I didn't feel like french fries. So it was the right choice at the time. I'm not a big fan of cheese on a salad. But if I ever ordered it again, I would just say no cheese. This place is very convenient for where I was staying. There isn't a lot of parking so if you stop by be prepared for that. Overall, the staff was very attentive, helpful, and friendly. The other folks at the bar were also friendly. It has a good simple, fun toned down sports bar type atmosphere. For where this bar is located, it is one of the best options in the area. Perhaps not a destination bar restaurant. But will definitely do well if you don't want to drive all the way into the south Lake business district. read more

Must try! 5/5 Our first day in Tahoe we decided to eat someone close to our lodging, the F&H was conveniently close by and that made our choice for us. I'll be honest, I didn't expect much as the location is close to lodging style resorts and was assuming something basic, boy was I wrong! I ordered a smoke house French dip sandwich and my wife ordered a California tri tip sandwich, woah! I scarfed mine so fast my wife didn't have a chance to try haha. The meat was soft, the bread was fluffy, the horseradish was on point and the dip for the sandwich was delicious. My wife let me have a couple bites of her sandwich and it was even better! Crispy toasted bread with garlic butter and cheese, soft tri tip with crispy lettuce and juicy tomatoes, ohh and don't forget about the bacon.. so good 5/5. Both these sandwiches were amazing and I haven't even got to the BBQ sauce, the three options they provide were all great, but our favorite was the green label, tomatoes and vinegar, 5/5. To bad we are not locals or we would be regulars, must try! read more

It's a solid local bar, and also great for apres ski after skiing at Heavenly's NV side. We've been visiting this joint for over a decade as both a tourist visitor and now as a local. The vibe is divey and I love it for what it is. BBQ is solid and the pizza's great. The booze does its job. Portions are pretty generous, esp the BBQ platters. They're pretty busy so be prepared for a bit of a wait if you go at peak times. read more

Cool local bar/restaurant at the top of Kingsbury grade in South Lake Tahoe. We were staying at a resort nearby and came here to order food to go and grabbed a beer while we were waiting. It has a nice local feel and the bartender was friendly and you can tell there were a few regulars hanging out. The menu has a lot of options, I wish I would have tried the BBQ, but we were picking up food for the kids so it was Pizza, Burgers and Wings. Everything was delicious, I would definitely go back for another visit to try the BBQ. read more

We have return to The Fox and Hound every summer for over 30 years now, and I have to revise my last review downward a bit. It's 2026, and prices have gone nuts everywhere, but what I don't like is to pay more and get less. In this case, a lot more for a lot less. My Carolina Pulled Chicken Sandwich was underwhelming, in both taste and in portion size. What was advertised as "a healthy handful of meat" must have grabbed by been a baby's hands, and the slaw "topping" was the vast majority of the volume of the sandwich. The only included side was shoestring fries, which -- I get it, potatoes and cheap and high margin -- but what self-respecting BBQ joint includes shoestring fries with an entree? I definitely wouldn't order that again, but the tri-tip sandwich looked a lot more substantial for a few bucks more. Fox and Hound is still one of the better options in the Tahoe basin, but not the screaming deal that it used to be. 3/5 stars. read more

Good energy all around, and perfect ambiance, our server was awesome. He came to check on us multiple times, and left us alone when we were going to town. Ribs melting off the bone, tri tip so soft it makes your mouth water. If you enjoy bbq you will love this place. Open late 12 am since I've been here. We are going to come back soon read more

Late lunch on Wednesday. Looking for a restaurant with gluten free options between Genoa Lakes and South Lake Tahoe. The bartender was managing the entire restaurant. There was outdoor seating but it was a little windy and cold. She served us water and provided us with menus. Once we place our food and drink order, our food arrived pretty quickly. read more

We had a pleasant dining experience at the Fox and Hound last evening for dinner. My husband ordered the pulled pork sandwich and I ordered the French dip. Both were delicious with an ample amount of fries. We even went home with leftovers. Our waiter Eric was prompt and pleasant. They kept our drinks (water) topped off and checked back in with us just enough. There are several TV's all tuned to different sporting events. We enjoyed our visit. read more

The food & the place are great. The daytime bartender with short blonde hair really soured my experience twice now...super gruff & rude...slamming things around. I'm bummed read more

We were visiting the area and had high hopes for Fox & Hound after hearing good things from locals. Unfortunately, the service left much to be desired. The staff--servers and even the hostess--were noticeably rude and unfriendly. Simple requests like asking for an extra menu when a guest joined us, or splitting the check, were met with unnecessary attitude and resistance. The tri-tip tasted like it had been sitting for a while--dry and reheated, rather than freshly made. Definitely disappointing for a place known for BBQ. The other food itself was just okay, but the poor customer service really soured the experience. Sadly, we won't be returning. Only thing nice was the view when sitting outside. read more

Food was ok, ordered a cheesesteak sandwich, clearly was not an authentic cheesesteak. One the positive side, the prices are very reasonable. I'd probably go back to this place I needed a quick bite. read more

Out and about exploring our new 'hood, we came across Fox & Hound on Yelp. We started off with the Smokehouse Bloody Mary, which is mixed with some of their house bbq sauce. Loved the crunchy bacon strip and the drink itself was just the right amount of spicy. The two of us shared the rib and meat combo with the tri tip. It comes with two sides and we got the onion rings and added a Caesar salad for $1 to round out the meal. We were impressed! Good smoky flavor on both meats. The ribs were fall off the bone, the tri tip was tender, the onion rings were bomb. The portions were generous, we even had leftovers. They have three sauces: mild, western Carolina and hot. We liked the hot the best which wasn't very hot and had a touch of sweetness. Will be back to try the other items on the menu! read more

Stopped by, had a burger and a French dip. Drinks were good, service was good. I would recommend!!

This spot has great ambience and good service, but the food is pretty mediocre, especially for the price.

I was just in this restaurant and can't help but to share my customer service experience. This is not a typical yelp review, more of a witness testimony. This is based on what I overheard sitting right next to the confrontation. Customer ordered a $130 order on DoorDash. They were 10 miles away from the establishment. A 10 mile drive from this place could be a 20 min drive or more than 45 min drive in Tahoe, in Aug. This customer comes in loud and hot w paper door dash bags, says he rcvd his food cold. He had called the restaurant w this complaint before this and asked for the order to be replaced, stating his DD order had been cancelled. They agreed. He drove over to pick it up personally. The food was picked up from DoorDash hot and fresh. So basically, the restaurant is not getting paid, but they agreed to replace it. Kind gesture and great customer service they weren't obligated to provide. Nonetheless, upon arrival, he went on and on about how they sent him cold meals, never acknowledging the DoorDash drive time or how many stops they made along the way. Jessica and Emily tried explain they weren't the delivery service, they checked the boxes for order details and temps at pick up. Regardless, he made a scene that all the patrons had to endure. His name is Phillip and he went above and beyond to make an ass of himself. Emily and Jessica went out of their way to rep the Fox and the Hound professionally and try to make up for the delivery delay. Keep up the great work, even though it's not always appreciated Fox and Hound! read more

Don and I came here on 2 recent occasions for a mid-afternoon lunch after several hours of Heavenly skiing. We started and ended our ski day at the nearby Boulder Lodge, of which getting to the Fox & Hound from there was really easy. As it was mid-week, the place was maybe half full both times. And getting back down the Kingsbury towards Genoa was a straight shot. Considering the number of reviews for the Fox & Hound, my guess is that this place is also convenient as an after ski place or if you just happen to be staying at the multiple lodging opportunities up here. I did feel a bit out of place as my Carson Valley Douglas County is residential and relatively flat and high desert, while up here in Stateline Douglas County is a resort vibe in an Alpine environment. And of course, there's casino gambling offered in both areas. The first Lunch was pulled chicken and fries for me, a burger and fries for Don, and beer all around. It was definitely more than enough food, so when Day 2 came around, we split a chicken quesadilla. Perhaps our tasty refreshments went down too quickly for these 2 hungry (and relatively exhausted/sore) OG (Old Guy) skiers, but the chance to relax, chat, and reflect made both outings a good one. I thought that the menu pricing was a little on the high side, and that speed from the Kitchen lagged a bit. But this was one of those times that we weren't in a hurry and appreciated the overall happy vibe and friendly service of the Fox and Hound. I'm sure I'll be back after another ski day. read more

I stayed up at The Ridge during the American Century Championship held at Edgewood Lake Tahoe. Food: Had dinner 2x during my stay in Lake Tahoe. First night was Teriyaki wings and. The Works pizza. Neither of the 2 disappointed. The wings were piping hot coming out w great flavor AND a pizza w everything on it...how could you go wrong. Crust had just the right amount of crisp and overall the pizza was NOT covered w sauce Night #2's dinner was St Louis Pork Ribs w a side of chili and x-crispy tater tots. Tonight was very busy and I was not in any rush. Ribs were tasty and had the right amount of smoke....definitely an Award winner!!!Loved their chili... Ambiance: Being on the Nevada side, the bar is reserved for those who want to gamble, enjoy a cocktail and food. I sat at a high top which was perfect even though I took up a table for 4. Friday night, they are busy...be ready for at least a 20 minute wait I will definitely stop back in and try their breakfast menu!! read more

We spotted the Fox and Hound on the way to our hotel in South Lake Tahoe. It's been a while and they've really remodeled the place. Trophies adorned the room for their award winning BBQ and the place smelled great too. Some excellent margaritas and beers were ordered, before we settled on the three meat combo. The tray was well stocked and came with there three sauces in abundance. I tell you the ribs were amazing, chicken moist and smoky. Friendly service and fun attitude! read more

This is my favorite BBQ place in the Tahoe Reno area! The meat smoker sits directly in front of the restaurant and beckons you in when you smell it. We love coming here with friends since they have BBQ platters that can serve a crowd. We got one this time that served seven of us. It included ribs, chicken, chopped pork, sausage and multiple sides such as bacon mac and cheese, green beans, and corn bread muffin, to name just a few. We even got a couple of appetizer baskets of dry rub chicken wings. Sooo good! Lastly, you can't go wrong if you start off with the Campfire Margarita! The smokey agave nectar and the smoked salt are what transform this margarita and put it over the top! read more

A single cinnamon roll pancake? $7. Two cinnamon roll pancakes? $18. I guess math is optional here. The pancake itself was excellent--worth every carb. The "smokehouse burrito" with tri tip? Zero flavor, all fat and gristle. The meat was so poorly cut it came out in one disgusting, chewy clump. Nothing says "bon appétit" like sawing through fat with your teeth. And customer service? A true highlight. The woman who answered the phone sounded like I personally ruined her day just by existing. She snarled "Fox and Hound" with the enthusiasm of someone forced to answer calls during a hostage situation. I called to get on the waitlist since their website wasn't working. The woman on the phone snapped, "You can't do it online because we aren't busy right now." Oh, my bad, I forgot I'm supposed to have psychic powers or a live video feed of their dining room. Pro tip: don't call this place unless you want to experience pure secondhand rage. read more

This is a great go-to restaurant if you are skiing the Nevada side and parked at Stagecoach or Boulder Lodge OR if you are doing the hike near the summit when its not ski season. The ribs are DEELISH! And their signature cocktails (e.g., margarita) are also tasty. If you get a sandwich, the tater tots and fries are must-haves. I like all things pork (ribs, pulled pork sandwiches, combo platter) at Fox & Hound. If you have a large party, they have this monster of a plate of their best dishes and sides. It's worth getting even just for the pictures. read more

We visited Fox & Hound in Tahoe on April 4th around 11:00 AM for breakfast and had a very disappointing experience from the moment we walked in. The server immediately told us, "You're need to wait outside," in a rude and unwelcoming tone with no greeting or explanation. We noticed a sign about bar seating and politely asked if we could sit there and have a drink while we waited, but she abruptly told us we wouldn't be getting a drink because she was the only one working and that we needed to go outside. Another family who walked in at the same time was equally surprised by her attitude. Both our group and the other family ended up leaving. Hospitality matters, and if someone isn't able to be welcoming, especially in a tourist destination, they shouldn't be in this role. We went just 3 minutes down the road to a place called Bruschetta and wow, what a difference. Friendly people, great service, and amazing food. Do yourself a favor and skip Fox & Hound, you will have a much better experience almost anywhere else. read more
