Voted Best Family Restaurant by the local media, this restaurant offers a warm and friendly atmosphere with exceptional cuisine and service. For breakfast, try the Mountain Man Omelet with country sausage, red onions and tomatoes. The lunch menu features Grilled Pork Chops and a Rib Eye Steak Sandwich. For an unusual appetizer, try the Jalapeno-Spiked Wild Boar. A great dinner choice is the New Zealand Orange Roughy. Cocktails and wine are available.

Big Water Grille

Housed in a residential building, the Big Water Grille is a combination of a laid-back bar with delicious food and great drinks. Take in the breeze on its spacious deck in the evening. Get your drink and watch the sun go down; it's spectacular to say the least. Everything from steak, pasta to seafood is available here for a moderate price. Meals are cheap and the portions generous, which makes it enduringly popular with locals and visitors alike. Make sure you leave room for desserts or coffee. No reservations required. Open daily from 4:30pm.

Evans American Gourmet Cafe

This elegant restaurant oozes pure Tahoe charm. Tucked into a real mountain cabin, the surpisingly light and airy dining room has a cozy Victorian feel with its linen tablecloths, floral centerpieces and high-backed chairs. The Robb Report and Bon Appetit have given this eatery well-deserved accolades, and it is considered by many to be one of Tahoe's finest. Try the Rock Crab with Wasabe Caviar and Avocado. The Peppered Tenderloin of Pork is served with apple smoked bacon and horseradish potato cakes. There is a superb wine list in moderate to expensive price range.

536 Emerald Bay Road, South Lake Tahoe, CA, United States, 96150
PlumpJack Cafe

PlumpJack serves American cuisine - the type that utilizes local produce and simple flavor combinations. With a menu that changes daily, you can be assured of a unique experience every time you visit. Try the Roasted Breast of Chicken or Bison Short Ribs and definitely choose a bottle from the surrounding wine racks to complement your meal. The simple decor with lantern-like lamps on the walls lends the cafe a warm ambiance, especially in the evenings. It comes as no surprise then, that it was awarded three stars by the San Francisco Chronicle's Food Editor, Michael Bauer.

1920 Squaw Valley Road, Plumpjack Squaw Valley Inn, Olympic Valley, CA, United States, 96146
Jax At The Tracks

If you're looking for classic diner food, roll on down to Jax at the Tracks (formerly Andy's Truckee Diner) - and sample a piece of living history as well. The restaurant is housed in a vintage diner cart, which was transported nearly 4000 miles from Philadelphia. Drop by for a satisfying breakfast, or some American staples, served with flair - the Kobe beef meatloaf is a trendy twist on a staple. Enjoy the unique ambiance and terrific food, all served by friendly staff. Join in with your friends and family and enjoy the Jax at the Tracks experience!
