    Best chicken and potatoes. They are at all the local events and offer seasonal dishes full of local ingredients.

    Great food, friendly service. A hidden gem with the best on-mountain meals in Tahoe. Track it down next to the Subway lift!

    Honestly, I do believe this is one of my favorite places to eat. The menu is so full of so many…read moregreat choices! It is hard to know what to order. It taste fresh, all of it! I have yet to shop the market but it does seem to have everything you need!

    Like fine wine, Aladdin's gets better with age. I have loved watching it evolve over the years,…read moreespecially the restaurant, which started as a small offering and has now really come into its own. We had to feed a crowd at home recently and Middle Eastern cuisine suited everyone's fancy, so naturally Aladdin's was the call. Using the online ordering system was simple, and the food was ready right on time. My only feedback is that the items don't all clearly describe what you get or how the dish comes, and so I added sauces thinking they came on the side but really came on top, and paid upcharges for things like pita, thinking they didn't come with it but then finding out they did and I just added a lot of extra. I ordered a few shawarma plates, an Aladdin combo, and hummus, falafel, and babaganoush appetizers. Everything was delicious, but some items were a bit surprising. The hummus is was a bit on the loose side, and we actually thought it was tahini from the look, aroma, and flavor. My guess is the batch was made with a bit more tahini than normal. Still good, but surprising. The Aladdin's Combo didn't look as pictured on the website, where it looks like a very sizable portion of meat, with chicken in a reddish marinade. Though the chicken looked similar to shawarma, it was clearly different in flavor, and both it and the koobideh were delicious. I ordered extra meat and had expected it to be outrageously large based on the menu photo of the standard order, but what came was more similar to the photo itself. It was still plenty to share, but I paid additional and didn't seem like I got that much more. The regular portions here are large, like easily feed two people sized. We ordered one plate per person, but in reality could've split them all. Again, I love this spot and chalk this up to learning. I think some folks could get frustrated with this experience, and I def did to an extent, but I enjoy this too much to gripe.

    My wife and I celebrated our anniversary at Restaurant Trokay and couldn't have asked for a better…read moreevening. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance set the tone for a special night. The dining room is elegant and intimate without feeling stuffy, creating the perfect balance of fine dining and relaxed Tahoe hospitality. We enjoyed the four-course prix fixe menu with the wine pairing, and every course was excellent. The ingredients were incredibly fresh, the flavors were thoughtful and unique, and each dish felt like something special without being overdone. The wine pairings were fantastic and added to the experience throughout the meal. A special thank you to owners and chefs John and Nyna Weatherson. Their passion for what they do comes through in every aspect of the restaurant. Just as impressive as the food was the service--warm, welcoming, attentive, and genuinely focused on making guests feel cared for. The entire team helped make our anniversary memorable, and we left already talking about our next visit. If you're looking for a special dinner in Truckee, Trokay is the real deal. Outstanding food, exceptional hospitality, a beautiful atmosphere, and an experience that's worth every bit of the drive, time, and anticipation. Highly recommend. We'll definitely be back.

    I've been lucky enough to dine here several times over the years - both the 10 course and the 4…read morecourse menus. Presentation and flavors are always great. Service is friendly; they seem pretty accommodating of dietary needs, such as gluten-free. Wine pairings work well and have thought behind them. I'm subtracting a star for ambience - on our most recent visit, there were 3 other tables with children; one constantly crying baby right beside us, one kid towards the back was being entertained with cartoons on a phone/tablet without headphones, so we got to listen to that, too. My guess is this is more common with an early reservation than later, and I'm not putting all the blame on the restaurant, but when dinner for two costs $700+, that's just not cool. Maybe a baby sitter fell through or something, but this price point is Fine Dining. I guess next time we'll try for a later reservation, and perhaps ask to sit at the bar if this happens again.
