Dining interior
Kris C.

I give it two stars entirely based on the building itself as the service and food was pretty bad in my opinion. The building is pretty interesting and you can read about the history about when it was drawn up by Mr Wright and how the plans were acquired by the restaurant owners. I had what was basically a spicy chicken sandwich although it was not actually spicy. It included a spinach salad where I found the radishes to be rotten and the cucumber to be soft and nasty. The blue cheese dressing was flavorless and if I were blindfolded I would not have known what it was. My mother had a crab sandwich type thing in which she couldn't taste the crab. None of the food was hot. Our waiter seemed to be in a world of his own and took a very long time to get back and forth to our table. We actually spoke more to the bus boy for help than to our waiter. The only saving grace is that when we complained, the restaurant comped mom's sandwich and gave us a free dessert. The bill still came to over $30 (2 bar drinks included). I won't be returning unless it's to play golf (not) or take in some more scenery.

Childs entree. Another small bowl of blueberries was 1,50!

Wolfdale's Cuisine Unique - Trout appetizer

EXQUISITE FOOD WITH A VIEW…read more This is one of the few restaurants in Tahoe City I hadn't been to, so my sister made reservations for my birthday. Since we arrived fifteen minutes early, the hostess sent us upstairs to the rooftop bar to wait. The view was gorgeous, and we perused the menu. Our hostess returned at the exact time of our reservation and escorted us downstairs to our window table where there was a cute Happy Birthday sign, along with a lake view. So many tempting items were on the menu! We started with PNW Oysters ($4 each). Since we were skeptical because it was still August, we only ordered 4. What a mistake! I could easily have eaten more of these fantastic and fresh ocean delicacies. Next we had the Gyoza Dumplings ($18) - 6 Chicken and Vegetable flavorful pastries with a creamy ginger dip. My sister was still craving the Ahi Poke Cones ($14), which I had originally vetoed, so I succumbed to requesting them at the last minute. Fortunately, our helpful server could accommodate this sudden change. Like everything we selected, these light and crispy cones were beautifully plated. We both opted for the same entree - Grilled Filet Mignon ($59), and the chef was kind enough to make mine medium. Every tender morsel with the demi glaze was a scrumptious delight. So were the Yukon Mashed Potatoes. We were so satiated, that we took a brief look at the dessert menu and passed. That didn't stop the waiter from bringing us a pretty Dark Chocolate Mousse with a candle and a birthday greeting. Of course, we couldn't resist sharing this thoughtful treat. By the time we were done with this feast, we were so full we had to get some exercise, so we took a look at the Bacci Ball court and the fire pit below the restaurant. When we popped by the bar, we ran into people we knew and had a great time reconnecting. All in all, it was a stellar evening. Adding dinner at Wolfdale's to my unique "musts" whenever I'm in Tahoe.

We were also there last night (Greg H. & Carmen H.) and witnessed the interaction that has been…read moredescribed, and the claims about "terrible screaming kids" are simply not accurate. The service, staff, and overall evening were wonderful. The children were well behaved and acting exactly as you would expect at a family-friendly restaurant. Wolfdale's has always been a place where families are welcomed, and that was certainly our experience. What we did witness was the complaining party confronting and harassing the family with children, which was unnecessary, rude, and completely uncalled for. We have been coming to Wolfdale's since we were children ourselves, and it has always been one of our favorite restaurants because of its warm, welcoming atmosphere and exceptional service. Unfortunately, every now and then, there are people who seem to believe the world should cater exclusively to them. Thank you to the entire Wolfdale's team for handling the situation with professionalism, grace, and kindness while making all of your guests feel welcome. That is exactly why we will continue to return.

I just moved to Oroville a year ago and have enjoyed food at many places, but never found good Thai…read moreFood. When I found out they had pad Thai I thought I would give it a try. I called the store specifically to clarify their spice level as it had a simple one through 10 with no direction if Spicy was 10 or 1. The person who answered the phone said 10 was the spiciest. I ordered a three as I prefer mild to medium for my pad Thai. I have had Thai Food all over California and throughout the United States on vacation. I don't think I've ever been served Pat the Spicy. It was much closer to a seven or eight and was so spicy. I really couldn't continue eating it. Also, the tofu included, which is sometimes my favorite part when done correctly tasted like old stale pieces of fried tofu. I also ordered fried tofu as an appetizer and it had eight small pieces. Is not expensive so I don't know why they would be so stingy. It was fried nicely and crunchy but the value for $12 and eight small pieces is ridiculous Sadly, I was also disappointed by the chicken Satsy! It was so dry and so bland and did not have any of the yellow curry flavor usually present. I was also disappointed in this. Perhaps I should be happy about the false ad advertising, which showed eight plump juicy pieces of chicken. There were only 4. HUGE disappointment.
