ScottySauceAugust 17, 2011The outdoor dining is simply sunning. the view of the lake and area is so gorgeous. The drinks here are phenomenal but the one you must try is the famous wet woody. these are like slurpees on crack!
Amanda HurstJune 11, 2013Quite popular but worth the wait. Great views of the water. Prime rib dip is stellar. Pair any food with the original woody drink or the pear and you can't go wrong.
Karen StollMay 18, 2013Best Mother's Day Brunch ~ ever. View, Eggs Benedict - light sauce, crab legs, prawn cocktails - great cocktail sauce and also drawn butter. French toast, great presentation.
Brandon CainMay 26, 2018Great views of the lake while eating amazing dishes served by their chef. Second floor for a more quiet experience
Spend the evening having cocktails by the fireplace with live music on Friday and Saturday. Plus it's North Shore Nights every Friday with raffles and prides from 6:30-9:30
AmateurConciergeAugust 20, 2023Wholly average “bar & grill” food that’s expensive for the quality….ur really here for the view, so if ur not on the patio, or better get one of few tables on the water, come back later.
Kristopher HightowerSeptember 2, 2013Brilliant French onion soup, the drinks are brilliant. I especially like the Prickly Pear drink at Riva, Caliente, and Garwoods.
Ryan TaylorJuly 14, 2013Wet Woodys are $15 a piece but well worth it! It's crowded at times but we love coming here. Great food and drinks!
John LumsdenJuly 10, 2021B+. Menu is bit all over the place but food was good (had the special snapper fish) and the atmosphere was good (higher end lake restaurant). Prices should be a bit lower as food was decently fresh.
_July 11, 2015Beautiful view of Lake Tahoe. French onion soup was a bit salty, but the snicker cheesecake was good.
Ava GoldmanNovember 23, 2015Definitely order a smoothie... I got the mango, it was spectacular. Also, good pizza.
Andrea SNovember 5, 2013Dark chocolate croissant bread pudding is to die for! And I don't usually like bread pudding
Craig VillamorMay 31, 2016Come for the view & roasted chicken. Expensive for what it is, but food is good.
Lindsey AllenJune 15, 2017Nice restaurant, with good, friendly service. Food is above average and nothing typical. Quite pricey and not exactly family friendly for small children.
The Ritz-CarltonNovember 21, 2014Take a stroll down Garwood's Pier and watch the sun set over the West Shore of Lake Tahoe.- Rachel WAugust 21, 2012Great food and a great view of the lake! This place gets crowded quickly in the afternoon though.
- Lauren KellyJuly 24, 2017Half priced wet woody Wednesdays! Great outdoor seating on a beautiful summer afternoon.
Definitely recommend the Raspberry Wet Woody and the BBQ Chicken Quesadilla.
Jack CoteAugust 7, 2011You can't go wrong with the Dungeness Crab sandwich. Also try the John Daly, it's like a hard Arnold Palmer
Tami SwitsAugust 6, 2013Sit on the bar side, inside or outside where it's no reservation and probably no wait.
Have the "Sailor Jerry's Wet Dream" version of the Wet Woody - with fresh cream it's reminiscent of an orange dreamsicle
Carlos NissenAugust 3, 2013Black Strap-on Top sitting by the window is the perfect way to start the day!- Jeff BernierMay 25, 2011Veggie Burger (off menu) is the BEST I've ever had... & I've been a vegetarian for 18+ years!!
- The BBQ Chicken Quesadilla was awesome! I ordered it with no corn.
oh donnadooAugust 12, 2011Make a reservation for dinner or good luck trying to find a seat on the deck or in bar area.- Wet Woody's are God's gift to us...AMAZING! Be careful they are fun but dangerous.
Sherry Lin-BrownMarch 20, 20104:30-6:30 happy hour (Nov-April) $3.75 well drinks and 16oz draft beers, $4.75 house wines and Wet Woody's.
the COVID situation here is a complete shit-show. No social distancing, no masks, I don't even think anyone cares.
