    With tons of reclaimed wood, comfort food and 12 wines on tap, what's not to love? It offers apps like grilled baby artichokes, mains like lamb meatballs and desserts like the boozy beer float. Read more

    Now open for lunch! Executive chef Paul Burzlaff focuses on healthy comfort food with seasonal ingredients, making a midday meal well-balanced, energizing, and as light or as hearty as you choose. Read more

    Great atmosphere, California-sourced fare and libations, and friendly service staff make this place a gem! Try the pork belly tacos -- delicious! And be sure to have one of their ice cream sandwiches!

    Good food, nice cocktails. The pork sliders were well-sized and tasty. Cocktails were well-crafted, especially the Lake Tahoe Dark N Stormy and Moscow Mule.

    Seasonal soups are never to be missed judging from the one I had on a warm summer night: bright-yellow corn chowder with chili-infused olive oil, caramelized onions, and a sprinkling of chives. Read more

    Happy hour is great if you can swing it. Pig's ears, grilled cheese, specials are highlights. Great service too! And ice cream sandwiches!

    Pork sliders, brussel sprouts and the niman hanger steak are bombdiggity. Wished they accepted reservations...but go to O'Neill's next door while you wait for a table.

    Quinoa salad is bomb. They will make the pizza vegan if you ask. Nice bartenders. Delicious cocktails.

    Their chicken wings and fish and chips were great. And, their drinks are delicious.

    They have poutine! The cheese curds aren't very authentic, and they use pastrami, but unauthentic doesn't mean it's not delicious.

    Fish and chips are okay, nothing different from the standard, greasy fare. Nice cheese selection and great service.
