    The hole in one Sunday was quite cool!
    Lizz H.

    Whatta view!!! And the food, service, and ambiance is truly indescribable. But I will try!:) South Lake Tahoe (SLT) is 80 minutes from El Dorado Hills. Ok... maybe not when it is snowing. If I am in SLT and the weather is good... I will always, always stop at one of the world's most beautiful place to play a round of golf. And that would be Edgewood Golf Course. Where celebrity golf rules. I am talkin casual and elevated dining at Brooks' Bar and Deck! Where, even if you are not hitting that little white golf ball around and paying $400 and up, you can still have the incredible views and feel like a VIP while dining on delicious food and libations. Seriously... my absolute favorite place to hang out in SLT. My recent visit this year was wonderful. Beautiful, sunny day. I called about an hour away to make reservations. Always recommended. Score! Getting excited. Upon arrival you literally pull up to the golf course and valet your vehicle. Sooo nice. Just steps away you will find Brooks' Bar and Deck with all the happy people enjoying it all. Inside seating too. Actually the interior it is quite stunning with a classy bar and tables and quite the view. But it is outside with the Lake front and center people want. Our table afforded the perfect view. I think I have eaten at most of the tables on the deck. All are great. Our server was superb. As always. Drinks ordered before the menu receives a look. Right!?! We had such an outstanding meal. A friend's birthday was also celebrated along the way. He had never been before and was impressed. Photos of view and food included. You too deserve this experience if you find yourself in SLT. You are gonna want to make that reservation! (A shout out to Ivan, manager, who is so awesome.)

    Brooks Bar has a few areas you can dine at. One is inside, the other is on the patio overlooking the golf course and the lake. The patio is the better choice such great views when the weather is good like it is now. No issues with the service, very attentive and the drinks and food were also on point. A great spot to enjoy lunch with a scenic view.

    My parents were visiting from out of town and absolutely loved exploring Edgewood and munching on yummy lunch at Brooks bar. The only regret was that the patio was closed for the afternoon. The calamari was so good- lightly fried, not too chewy, perfect aioli dip, we actually ordered two calamari's! My mahi mahi tacos were super filling, I wish they mentioned it came with the same chips as the chips/ salsa/ guac we ordered because then I may have done a different side dish. The view of the golf course is fantastic and so worth staring out into. The summer pappardelle was creamy and delicious, my favorite dish. Overall, I appreciated that Brooks bar is a casual yet elevated place for lunch with an epic luscious green view.

    Service was amazing and food was good. Would recommend. Best views and atmosphere. Family friendly as well.

    Blue crab roll (subbed Caesar salad for fries)
    Tansy W.

    Lovely ambiance with outdoor dining overlooking the golf course and lake depending on where you sit. We came for lunch and started with waffle fries to share, which weren't bad but a little diff in the center and needed more toppings to cover al the fries. My sister got the blue crab roll with Caesar salad which was good. I got the trio tacos which was awful and largely inedible. The meats - esp the mahi mahi and carnitas - were way too hard and overcooked - also lacked flavor.

    You are always afraid the second visit will not be as good as you remember. ... What if it's better? Absolutely the best Burger I have had in 10 years..... Thank you.

    Potato skins

    We got a lovely table outside for lunch with friends and they cancelled last minute but it was a perfect date for us. My husband saw potato skins and had to have those and admittedly they were insanely good! He got the French Dip and I got the chicken Caesar salad. First round of drinks were perfect, my second Aperol spritz was watered down and weird but heck with that view I just gave it a pass. Went through the pro shop adjacent and got a hat. What wonderful service we had and we will be back.

    Bizarre situation. See the uploaded email I included as a photo. Bottom line: the food is good. The location is great. The ambiance is that of an upscale sports bar. But their service department is...odd? The valet driver linked someone else's key ring to our key ring. We unfortunately did not notice until we got home in Reno, which is about an hour away. We immediately contacted the resort several times. A manager said that he was relieved and would come retrieve the keys himself. He never did and we have no way of returning the keys to the rightful owner. Such blatant disregard for decency. We will obviously never patronize this place again. Update: after posting this review, and another one on Google, top management intervened and had someone retrieve the keys. Overall, I was still not pleased with the lack of urgency or remorse. I understand that mistakes happen, and I was not actually upset about the keys ending up in my possession. It was the initial ambivalent response that I found appalling.

    The view here of was stunning, however, the service my boyfriend and I experienced on my birthday was not good. I made us reservations at noon this past Saturday. The restaurant was empty and there were only a handful of tables sat on the deck around us with multiple servers and support staff working. Our service was so bad that I had to get multiple staff members attention during our dining experience. My boyfriend and I had to turn around in our chairs for long periods of time each time we were ready to order (drinks, food, dessert). As one of the higher rated restaurants in South Lake, and on the Edgewood property, I expected much better service. I will not be coming back to this establishment after this experience, and I don't recommend it to others either! The Bistro is a much better option.

    We had a great lunch here with amazing views of the golf course and Lake Tahoe. I was very impressed with the food. My fries were delicious and the chicken sandwich was full of flavor!

    Found this place last minute two years ago and had a great experience here. Therefore we had to stop by again this year we found out they have a really good happy hour with half off cocktail cocktails, and beer. The view of the lake and mountains, is exceptional, and well worth the visit

    Are medically certified support dogs allowed?

    Hi Elizabeth - thank you for reaching out to Edgewood Tahoe Resort. We allow service animals as defined by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

    Are reservations available to make online? Having zero luck with availability all the way into August.

    I had the same problem. Couldn't get a reservation online, but a phone call worked. Hope that's the case for you too.

    Is the bar Pet friendly?

    We allow service animals only.

Whether you want to stay busy or just kick back and watch a game, they've got you covered. There's a fun mini golf course with obstacle-style holes, cornhole, other interactive games, tons of big-screen TVs showing sports, plenty of high-top tables, a long bar, and even outdoor seating. We decided to grab a couple seats at the bar. We were first greeted by Kelly, who was incredibly friendly, had a great smile, and genuinely seemed happy to take care of us. Then Ben took over, and he was awesome. Super personable, easy to joke around with, and the kind of bartender who keeps interacting with guests even when he's busy. The staff alone is a reason we'd come back. Trivia isn't usually my thing, but we decided to join in anyway. It's free, energetic, and a lot of fun. There were probably around 25 teams playing, and Tom did a great job keeping the energy up all night. The questions start out pretty easy to build your confidence, then get progressively tougher. It ended up being a great time and the perfect way to spend our first night in Tahoe.

We were seated quickly by the waitress and served water. It must have been short staffed that day because it took a while to get our drink and food orders in. I'll give benefit of the doubt that it was slow season and staffing might be lean. My wife and I ordered Baja fish tacos and the fish n chips plate, I though the texture and execution of the dishes was spot on, very crispy and appetizing looking dishes, the tacos had cotija cheese on top of the fried fish, diced peppers with pico, and the side was a creative play on street corn (corn, mayo, cheese, spices) served with chips. The only critique I'll give is everything needed more salt, but that's better than being salty. My drinks were amazing, blood orange IPA and the clear water lager (award winning). I had a very positive experience and would definitely recommend!

They charged $38 bucks for a single bowl of ramen that only had two pieces of pork belly in it, and honestly, the pork tasted more like regular fried bacon. On top of that, the nachos were over $30. I totally get that tourist areas are bound to be pricey, but these prices are just excessive for what you actually get. People really need to know what they're getting into before they choose to eat here. Definitely won't be back.

I was simply trying to determine whether the charge was legitimate. I first spoke with a very pleasant employee who explained they were busy because of the weekend, took my information, and said someone would most likely call me back early next week. I also contacted Chase to report the $845.61 transaction as unfamiliar and asked them to investigate. About two hours later, at approximately 9:45 PM, I received a call from the owner, Brian, while my 6-year-old daughter was next to me as I was reading her bedtime story. Instead of asking questions or trying to understand why I was calling, he immediately accused me of being a scammer and told me that "you and your family should die a horrible death." I was shocked by the hostility. My daughter asked me what the man meant by wishing us to die and it took me a moment to come together to senses what to say to her about it.. I understand that business owners receive scam calls and can be cautious. I get them all the time and some times it gets annoying. However, there is no excuse for speaking to another person that way. I immediately called back, left a calm voicemail and gave him the opportunity to return my call to apologize. I never received a response. I want to be clear that I do not know whether the unfamiliar charge was caused by this business, their payment processor, or something else. Chase is investigating that separately. My review is based solely on how I was treated during that phone call. Ironically, my father and I actually stopped at this pub on that day of June 5. We looked at the menu, decided not to eat there because of the high cost menu prices, and instead had a great lunch at Burger Me in downtown Truckee and even took a selfie with food as it was delishious (tuna burger was incredible - highly recommend). After reading other reviews mentioning similar interactions, I hope the owner reflects on how customers are treated. As a husband, father of three, and a nearby property owner, I expected far better professionalism. I have written over 100 Yelp reviews over the years, and the vast majority have been 5-star reviews because I enjoy recognizing businesses that provide excellent service. Unfortunately, this is one of the very few times I've felt compelled to leave a 1-star review. I do not like to leave poor reviews and I sincerely hope the owner reflects on how customers are treated and chooses to do better in the future.

We knew it wasn't going to be crowded and the food will be fresh, but it was so much more than that. Overland is lucky to employ Tennessee, who might just be the best server in the Carson Valley. I grant you that we haven't been to every restaurant and we haven't had every server and so it could be hyperbole to try to tell you that he's the best, but we need to be sure to let you know that he is clearly in the top percentile of quality, local servers. Why you ask. He anticipated our every need, and so we always had water, always had coffee, and he cleared every single time he got near the table. His positive energy is infectious. Yes, I can hear you now, what about the food? My wife can, on occasion, high maintenance, and this was one of those mornings. She ordered the Eggs Benedict without the bottom bread plus one more whole extra Eggs Benedict, and Tennessee didn't flinch. I ordered the vegetarian omelette and I had side breakfast potatoes. All of it tasted great. I even tried the hollandaise sauce on my wife's eggs Benedict and it tasted fresh and tasty. So, I say give Tennessee a raise, and when you go to the Overland, hope that you get seated in his section because it will be an experience that you won't forget soon, and the food is very good. Somehow, this breakfast restaurant is flying under the radar on Saturdays and Sundays. They truly deserve to be packed as they have the formula for success, great service, good food, and a clean environment..
