    The food was great. The service was outstanding. The front person greeted us. The place was bright but not too bright for breakfast hours. The food was awesome!! And it was only $20 for both me and my wife!! Keep up the great job!!

    Great breakfast and service at this Carson City location. Finally, a breakfast out that did not break the bank. One order of the Usual one order of bisquit and gravy a la carte, coffee, and ice tea all for under $20. A small wait on a Sunday morning. Super fast service after our order was placed. I'm pleasantly surprised!

    Service was quick and got seated at a booth. Food was delicious as usual. 3% discount for cash taken out at the register. Girl working at the register was new and had to be helped out by waitresses

    The food is AMAZING and very filling. The service is GREAT. The atmosphere is casual. Overall it is one of the best cafes I've ever had

    The Usual with ROSTI

    We were walking around S Lake Tahoe and saw Red Hut. I'd read that it was a local favorite, so I talked my brother into going there with me. It was a great place. After waiting 5 minutes for a seat, we were seated by the window at a tiny table. We both had the daily special, THE USUAL. It was two eggs, hash browns, and a biscuit/gravy for $9.99. I upgraded mine for $2 to their specialty, the ROSTI, which includes chopped sausage, green onions, cheddar, and sour cream on my crisp hash browns. Well worth it, as was the coffee. $13 and $15 each (+ tax/tip) for big breakfasts in Tahoe was a bargain. The Red Hut is decorated inside like a fishing/ski lodge version of Cracker Barrel in a more homey atmosphere. Very nice people and good quick service. Hard to complain. We'll be back next time we are in the area.

    Yes I'm actually up at this hour but rarely. I'm shocked I have not found this cafe earlier, it's probably because I'm never up this early to eat. The staff is really on top of things here, I was greeted promptly and seated at my choice of the counter or a booth. I like counters if I can see the cooks at work and this was not the case so I chose a booth. The order was taken quickly since my choice was made up prior to entering. I ordered the chicken fried steak with eggs eyes looking up and they had hash browns with the order, yum. I gotta say they make a chicken fried steak worth coming for all the time. This was probably one of the best chicken fried steaks I have had in long time. This cafe has multiple locations owned probably by the same owner/s. They certainly know their stuff keeping this a simple but exceptionally good food cafe. The decorations are what you would expect from a old fashioned diner, very nice touch. I need to mention they also have the correct hot sauce for breakfast.

    Avocado toast with fresh tomatoes and green onions. One side of a poached egg, and a cup of coffee!

    Down home breakfast! Truly enjoyed my avocado toast with diced fresh tomatoes and green onions and poached egg on the side, followed with a perfect cup of coffee!!

    Rosti with bacon and an over medium egg.

    We always used to go to red hut when we lived in Tahoe but haven't been there for years. We decided to go to this one to get our Rosti fix and I think they are even better than Tahoe! We went around 1pm. The service was quick, the food was hot and delicious and the rosti was just as cheesy delicious as we remembered. We also got the cornbread waffle which was delicious but nothing like a waffle more like thin cornbread with honey and butter.

    Where has this been all my life, and why is it tucked in a small food court in a bowling alley!? I…read moreordered the Wild West Tater and honestly was expecting a fairly satisfying, but ordinary, baked potato with toppings. What I received was an amazing blend of super tender pork in a slightly sweet but tangy BBQ sauce, mac n' cheese, and a perfectly cooked (not hard or dry), very generously sized potato (big enough for two). On a chilly day, when you're hungry, this absolutely fits the bill. Warming and savory, but well balanced, and not greasy. After some bowling or billiards? Perfect. I was thinking this was probably the best flavor, when I saw the rotating ad for....a spaghetti potato pie. Will have to come back and try other varieties. The cashier was very helpful and patient explaining the menu. Checked the website and looks like they update the menu with new options too. They say they're "dedicated to perfecting the art of the baked potato," and they're doing exactly that. Along with it, they're also serving up one of the best craft-style fountain sodas, Stubborn Soda. Don't hesitate to make a little detour (or order delivery) to try this place. TIP: Located inside the HomeGrown Bowl center: from the main entrance, head down the hall to the right past the arcade; also near a side entrance.

They told us not to order over the phone, only online. OK, fine, but it seems like you shouldn't turn away business just because we used a phone. We got our order placed online instead. My wife received a confirmation email and then an email saying our order was ready for pickup. She arrived at the restaurant, and the lady working said she had never gotten an order and hadn't started on it. So my wife waited for the food to be prepared and finally got it home. The food was good. The mac and cheese potato is really good. The mac and cheese was a star. The shepherd's pie was ok, but a little shy on the meat and needed some more seasoning. At least the portions are large, and you'll likely be able to split an order into two meals unless you're super hungry. The inside of this place is small and located inside the bowling alley building. Nothing special about the ambiance. Takeout is probably the way to go. This place should be 3 stars. However, I am going to cut a little slack and assume it was a one-off experience. So for this review, I am sticking with 4 stars. When I return, I hope the food is up to par, and the service improves. I would love to write a 5-star review for this small local business.

However, service has been a challenge during each visit. On our most recent visit, it took about 20 minutes to be seated with a party of four, including a child, even though there appeared to be open tables. After sitting down, it took several minutes before we were greeted. Our server brought waters and later took drink orders, but there wasn't much communication about timing or whether they were short staffed. Once we placed our order, we waited close to an hour for our food. We completely understand that restaurants can get busy and staffing can be tight -- we just would have appreciated a quick update along the way. A little communication goes a long way and helps set expectations. When our food arrived, part of the order was incorrect (we had requested a salad and soup substitution but only received fries). The server corrected it, and the food itself was good. It did come out at different times, and we noticed another table seated after us received their food much sooner, which was a bit confusing. We truly want to support Roy's and hope this feedback is helpful. With stronger communication and smoother service flow, it could be a great experience.

    Tee Jay's is a Carson City institution…read more I have been eating from Tee Jay since his farmers market days, but he has been in this location inside the Cactus Jacks casino for many years now. I can't believe I have never written a review. Specializing in Indonesian food with a western twist, Tee Jay is serving up great noodle dishes, burgers, cheesesteaks, hot dogs, and one of my new favorites, Loco Moco! The Krakatoa cheesesteak is one of my favorites. Thin-cut steak, cheese, and if you like spicy, it's even better! The loco moco is what I tried most recently, and I thought the portion size was great for the price. The classic noodle dishes like pad thai and the curries are also bomb. The ambiance here isn't the best since it's located on a casino floor; however, the classic counter diner has a special ambiance in and of itself. I almost always get food to-go from here. Tee Jay is always working at this place with a few assistants, and they are a truly kind and caring staff, wanting to make the best food for their guests. Give Tee Jay's a try, you won't regret it.

    Believe the hype this place is legit…read more It's tucked away inside a casino, but you'll find it. Everyone behind the counter was very helpful. If you're not familiar with Indonesian cuisine they'll walk you through it. The man working the grill noticed I ordered tofu and checked into make sure any dietary restrictions were covered, I don't have any but it was a nice touch. He also made sure the spice level was what I wanted ahead of time. I can do spicy, but probably not Indo spicy, so he kept it within my limits. I got the lumpia and tofu/egg/rice entree whose name I cannot remember. Absolutely delicious. No qualifiers like "for Carson city" or "for a casino". It was really great. They also made their own (very) hot sauce and riff on Chinese mustard. Both great. Way more than I could finish so they boxed it up beautifully. Then whammo, a surprise fruit salad for palate cleanser/dessert. Love it. Note: they have real sugar Pepsi. Whole heartedly recommend
