    a cup of coffee
    Barbara A.

    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!

    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!!

    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.

    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

    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.

    We sat in the patio on a cool spring evening. Poof! They turned on the giant fire pit! Yea!…read more Our party of 5 all tried different menu items. Burger, pastrami sandwich, BLTA, fish & chips, and the brisket. The Tahoe IPA beer was great. Kids all ordered soft drinks, plenty of refills offered! We all enjoyed our meals, except brisket boy. He was expecting BBQ brisket, but the plate was more of a roast beef with gravy, mashed potatoes, and veggies. Fish & chips were pretty good, with 2 nice sized chunks of cod. The sandwiches were nice, burger solid! The fries were really good, seemed like fresh cut. When I looked at what others were enjoying, we observed that the wings look to stand out. Next time we'll explore wings & fries....and more beer! Service was attentive and the patio very pleasant!

    The good: Our server was great. She was personable. But she did mislead us when describing how…read moreeverything on the menu was good. But at the same time, it would be silly to hear a server say bad things about the menu items to their guests. So, she was just doing her job. The bad - The food. Of all the things we ordered, the cheese curds were the best thing cuz...how could you go wrong with frozen items you throw in a fryer? Anyway, we also ordered the Fried Pickles. I enjoy fried pickles, but holy sh*t these were SALTY! These pickles were more like chips. They were actually light and crispy which is unusual as fried pickles are typically still soft and and keep their integrity after being fried in a batter. These, however were like, dehydrated pickles that were battered and deep fried. I really liked how crispy they were, but with how salty they were, we couldn't finish it. Chicken Pot Pie - one of the more popular dishes ordered. It looked great when presented. The top crust looked nice and thin like a cracker, but when I dug in, the filling was runnier than what I am used to. But more importantly, the flavor was off. I assume they use a frozen pie crust because it didn't taste buttery at all. It had a weird chemically taste. I missed having that rich buttery crust a pot pie should have. The filling didn't taste great either. Also, had a weird chemically taste to it. I almost think they use canned chicken based on the flavor and texture it had. I was so looking forward to a homey comforting pot pie. It's not often I get to eat one of these, but this one fell way short of my expectations. The Lamb Burger - My husband loves lamb and it's not often you see a lamb burger anywhere. He was so excited to have this, but was so disappointed after taking his first bite. He said it was so bland. I took a bite. And while it did taste of lamb, I agreed it lacked seasoning. Now, THIS needed some of the salt that were in those pickles. Lol! Foxy Fried Chicken - A panko fried chicken breast. It was good. Mashed potatoes were good and the veggies. I didn't expect this dish to be spicy though. I don't know if the cook went heavy handed on the pepper, but the veggies and mashed potatoes it was served with had a kick to them. Meh. All in all, we wouldn't return. There was nothing we had that made me feel like this place had potential and worth making another visit to. We did order quite a few things and everything, but the curds were lackluster and a disappointment.

I stopped in to purchase a coffee cake to take to someone. I was helped by a woman who, from the moment I approached the counter, never looked at me or acknowledged me. She continued talking to a coworker, with her head turned away from me the entire time. At one point, the coworker even came over to show her something on her personal phone, and the conversation continued. She eventually bagged my coffee cake without saying a word, still never making eye contact, and handed it to me. I actually had to lean toward her until she finally looked at me. I said, "Thank you," and walked away. I completely understand that working with the public can be challenging, and everyone has bad days. But this was more than just being having a bad day--it was zero effort to acknowledge or interact with a customer. Schat's is a place I really like, which is why this experience was so disappointing. If you're going to work in a customer-facing position, please make an effort to be courteous, acknowledge your customers, and provide at least the basic level of customer service they deserve.
