On the way back from a quick stop at the Virginia City Highlands, decided to try this well-rated cafe, and I'm so glad we did! Surprisingly located within a convenience stop (gas station, market, car wash), it was a spacious, well-lit location filled with visual references to nature and Tahoe. Parking was easy and there was plenty of comfortable indoor and outdoor seating, giving a slightly upscale cafeteria vibe. My only note is that the tables could have been tidied more frequently. Only saw someone go around to do this when we were done eating. The food seemed to be an interesting blend of Mexican-inspired, mostly healthy breakfast and lunch options. Lots of tea, coffee, and fresh squeezed juice options to pair with. I opted for the "green juice" minus celery. Pretty much everything (including my egg melt) came with top-notch, unique tortilla chips (crispy, whole grain?). I can only imagine that their house specialty nachos would be amazing. The egg melt came open face on a bagel...perfect thickness, moist but not chewy, topped with very fluffy eggs, ripe avocado and a rich melted jack cheese, with perfect (slightly nacho-esque) seasoning. (Much better than what some bagel-focused chains offer.) I will definitely come back for this! read more

After my last review there were never green onions put on the nachos again so I'm guessing that was a mistake, and we are quite regular patrons here. They have gluten free bread and one of my favorite quick snack and:or breakfasts is the peanut butter banana and honey on that toast. Feels healthy and is filling. I will probably try the avocado toast again at some point but only when it's avocado season. Love the adult and kids nachos. Add turkey! Adult size is great to share. Open and bright restaurant and lovely outdoor seating for the right weather. Good luck in the high desert spring time. Everyone working is always pleasant and friendly. I love that they employ younger people too. Such a convenient location for us in South Reno. We are lucky to have you! read more

Nice, bright, clean, airy cafe with ample seating and friendly staff. Cute outdoorsy and Easter decorations line the walls, along with colorful art and a cool giant six-panel video screen displaying colorful Tahoe scenery. Food is a little on the pricey side (as with most things these days), but it's fresh and creative. Lots of disparate and fun-looking options on the menu, like a curry bowl and burritos and avocado toast and interesting-sounding salads and sandwiches. We found the bread to be very very good--I got the avocado toast and my wife got an open-faced breakfast sandwich on a bagel. The bagel was surprisingly easy to bite through with all the toppings, and nicely fresh and delicious. I liked that they didn't go overboard on the toppings for the sandwich or the avocado toast. The avocado toast had a nacho-tasting seasoning on it that was good for a few bites but a bit too much after that. However, it came with a wedge of lemon, which, when squeezed overtop, added a nice citrusy brightness. They make their own juice mixes, too, which is a plus, but when it came to the coffee options, they seemed a bit limited or basic. The dirty chai I got was too muted by the milk. Very minor complaints, though--all in all a nice brunch experience for us. read more

Tahoe Natural Cafe has become a great stopping off point on my walking tour. It's a great place to grab a cappuccino which is what I did recently. Met a friend for coffee and enjoyed the wide open concept of this cafe. They have outdoor seating but don't expect a lot of ambiance with that. Still it's a great place to have a cup of coffee as you gaze out at the parking lot and veterans parkway. I haven't been too drawn to order food but need to try something on their "specials" menu. The staff was very pleasant and had no problem pouring my cappuccino into a porcelain cup. I don't usually order coffee out so was worried... Beautiful place. Next time I'll order food! read more

A very unique restaurant with a healthy menu full of veggie loaded sandwiches, fruit smoothies, and healthier Mexican food. I was surprised that this is located in connection to a gas station, car wash, and convenience store. The Tahoe Turkey was a great sandwich! I enjoyed the hatch chile and it was not spicy at all! However, it appears that everything comes with a side of tortilla chips as the default side. While I understand it is a very cost efficient side, it felt a little off for a deli turkey, cheese and veggie sandwich. read more

This place was super cute and very gluten free friendly. At first I was hesitant because it was located next to a gas station but, as soon as you walked in, you would be impressed with the design and view of the mountains. They offered a lot of healthy options from food to juice. The staff were friendly and they had a lot of seating available inside. It's also very family friendly because they have a small kid section in the corner. Great spot for lunch! Definitely recommend! read more

After a walk around the marsh area, we saw the sign for this place on a new (I think) complex, so we decided to give it a try. We both wanted a salad. Their cob salad is really good size, great protein portion -- really enjoyed it. The place is clean, comfortable, bright, noise level is low. The staff is friendly. Perfect breakfast/lunch place. Was not crowded around 12:30 pm on a weekday. Really enjoyed the visit! read more

The inside is very clean, nice, and open. It's a great place to actually work from if you can do some things remote. I enjoy the outdoor seating as well when it is nice out but there is traffic noise. Staff have always been friendly. I like their open face bagel breakfast sandwich thing (don't remember the name). In general, food is fresh with a healthier twist. I usually get a chai tea with oat milk. It's okay, not really special, I think more their juices or smoothies would be the way to go for a more special, unique drink experience. read more

First! I ate here when they first opened a few years back---LOADED NACHOS and two beers---$14; nachos were made on the spot with refried beans/beef/ cheese...yum! More recently I have breakfast there post-run (on the wetlands path just South of their location) The Breakfast sandwich is my favorite with fluffy-egg goodness; sliced tomato; turkey sausage, cheese aaaand avocado slices. Edgar the Manager is low-key and FRIENDLY! Coffee rounds out a great breaky. potatoes instead of chips would be better read more

High priced and not diversity friendly. I have tried this establishment more than twice, just to make sure it's not me. Usually I go by, "Once bitten, twice shy" but I live in this area and want to support businesses in my neighborhood. Each time my sandwiches have been dry, hard bread and seems to be thrown together. read more

Clean and bright environment with an extensive menu. As a flexitarian, I always appreciate meat-free options. Ordered the seasonal Pumpkin White Mocha (which tastes absolutely amazing) and the Huevos Verderas Rancheros. The portion was friggin huge- definitely sharing size.

This is a decent place for a quick, healthy breakfast. The dining area is light, clean, and new. The young, fresh-faced staff iss friendly and courteous. I ordered a breakfast sandwich with a double espresso. The sandwich and espresso were well prepared and satisfying. The tortilla chips for a side was a little unusual but I think it's standard for their meals. The chips just seem like a cheap garnish, not a thoughtful complement to the sandwich. read more

This is an unassuming cafe attached to a gas station, and I was blown away by the quiet serenity that I found in this spot. There is ample room to work, wifi, and great service. I got a bengal spice tea, but I would've been really happy to have ordered food if I hadn't just had lunch. There was an abundance of menu items that looked great, including juices and paninis. I was also blown away by the sunset at the end of the day. What a beautiful place! read more

I recently stopped by Tahoe Natural Cafe with my daughter. I was really impressed by how convenient it is. You can fill up your gas, wash your car and grab some delicious food all at once. We kept it simple and split the egg melt ( a bagel with avocado, egg, onion and cheese) which was tasty. I also grabbed a few kale refreshers, which had a nice kick of lemon, ginger, spinach and apple. Super refreshing! My daughter went for one of their fresh juices too. The ordering process is easy- just head up to the counter and your food gets brought out to you in a short amount of time. If you're in the area, I highly recommend checking it out. Great food, great vibes and super convenient! read more

The ambiente is clean with a lot of natural light which makes it a cozy place to swing by to grab a breakfast, lunch , afternoon snack along with healthy juices , smoothies and even alcoholic drinks on the site. I like how every table is next to the window. The cafe is very clean. There are plenty of tables to enjoy. There is even a kids' area to play, which is always a bonus for families. I ordered a breakfast sandwich " eggs melt " , it was actually really tasty , fresh , flavorful and tasty. It took me by surprise. The cafe is located on the side of a gas station but please don't be fooled. It is probably the cleanness gas station you have ever visited. :) All together, it is a great stop to make before the trip , in the middle of your trip or after a long drive where you can get food , snacks , drinks and gas. Even get your car washed. Great combo . Highly recommend it. read more

This was my first stop at the Tahoe Natural Cafe. It was Saturday and I was in the area. It is clean, bright, and open. I ordered a sandwich. I was going to get it to go. As I was waiting for it to be brought to me from the numbered tag, I sat comfortably. I read about the dedication to natural ingredients, healthy foods, and their commitment to providing delicious and nutritious food. And the sandwich arrived and lived up to the billing. And the sauce on the sandwich mixed in the sprouts so the bread does not get soggy was a delightful flavor. It was piled high with turkey and vegetables giving the sandwich a crunch. It took a balancing act not to fall onto my shirt as I savored the sandwich. I will happily return. Probably tomorrow! read more

Tahoe Natural Cafe has quickly become one of my go-to spots in south Reno. I love that they offer fresh and healthy menu items along with heartier meals and indulgences. I really like their hummus wrap and breakfast bowl. Dining in is always a positive experience and take out is easy too! They have an online system for take out orders if you wanted to order ahead of time. I should mention that their smoothies are also fantastic! I often see the owner in the restaurant, eagerly helping customers and his team. This is a joy to have in south Reno and I love to walk the wetlands loop and end the walk with a treat from Tahoe Natural Cafe. read more

I grew up in Tahoe and moved to Reno during college. When I moved, I would keep saying "I wish Reno had a Sprouts." I was looking at restaurants/brunch places in town a few months ago and saw this place on Yelp and the food looked so familiar, then I looked at the menu and I got SO excited! Reno finally had a Sprouts! I finally got to try it today and my cravings were satisfied. Food did not disappoint per usual and got served pretty quickly (a lot quicker than Sprouts actually). I LOVE the aesthetic inside also, so clean and modern. Will definitely be coming back. read more
