Bottom Line: Best Tamale on the West Coast…read more Well this place was a pleasant surprise. The person who makes the tacos is super nice. I had 3 carne asada tacos and tamale for $12. The tacos were totally legit. The tamale was one of the best and most innovative I have ever eaten. In fact, if you like tamales, it's worth the drive from South Lake Tahoe or Truckee. Here are the highlights... 1. Exquisite corn husk wrapping 2. Thin masa shell with seasoning 3. Innovative Stuffing: jalapeño, carrot, onion, nopales and a pollo/puerco picadillo Yeah I've had fancy expensive tamales at expensive restaurants but for a taqueria, this is the best on the west coast. Period

Our waiter barely spoke English so we had a very hard time communicating what we wanted to order. When our food came, I had ordered enchiladas, I had to look far and wide to find my enchiladas on my plate since it was swimming in Mole sauce. If things hadn't gone badly enough, we paid with a credit card and we're charged an extra three dollars! Needless to say, we will never go back to Lupitas again.

We ordered a total of 7 tacos and one tacos plate that comes with 2 tacos and rice and beans. Each tacos was $3.99 each. Don't let the price fool you like i did. Their street style tacos are a lot bigger then what we are use to in LA and very generous with the meat. You can definitely make 2 tacos with one. As for the meat we ordered the Asada, Pastor,Lengua, Buche and Cabeza. The pastor was just ok but the rest of the meat was delicious. Their salsa are were fantastic with a kick and they have 4 different types they give you. Ask for extra red salsa. Service was friendly and simple. You order from the outside and they'll call you number when it's done. Overall, food was solid and satisfying.

I tried this place because i saw pictures of fish tacos on previous reviews. Much to my dismay,…read morethey were not on the menu and when i asked about them i was told that those were just a "seasonal" offering last year. Hmmm, isn't peak tourist season in tahoe the right time to have your seasonal offerings? Oh well i looked for something else. Honestly the menu is pretty scant for lunch. Only three sandwiches and one was a hamburger. I finally settled on the ahi poke tacos. I have had lots of poke in hawaii so i was skeptical being in tahoe but i must say they were good. Not great but i would order them again. The place has a hawaiian flair in the menu so i was hoping for maybe a katsu dish or more fresh fish options. I think fish tacos would be a slam dunk there but that's just me. The ambience is nice and i sat in the shade on the patio on one of the hottest days of the year and it was still quite pleasant. Parking is readily available (that's important in tahoe in the summer) and service was on point. It was a little pricey for lunch, being over $32 after tax and tip for tacos and a soda. They also charge 3% service charge for using a credit card which i did not see posted on any signs or menus. Disappointing to find hidden charges after the meal. Overall i would rate this 3.5 stars but half stars are not available.

Our server was friendly and knowledgeable, and she did a great job walking us through the day's specials as well as some of her favorite picks. I started with the In Crowd cocktail and really enjoyed it. The coconut, basil, and bitters balanced beautifully with the gin, making for a super refreshing drink that felt especially perfect for spring or summer weather. We followed our server's advice and ordered four items, two larger plates and two starters, and everything was delicious. Here's the breakdown: Trout Dip: Fantastic smoky, fishy flavor in all the right ways, served with crostinis. The only small nitpick was that the crostinis were overdone for my taste and shattered loudly when bitten into. Grilled Prawns: Super meaty and seasoned and sauced perfectly, with a bed of slaw that balanced the dish nicely. Scallops: Seared to perfection and in an addicting red Thai curry sauce. I was intrigued by the combo of kimchi, grits, and curry and have to say that it somehow blends amazingly well. Lamb Chops: Cooked to a perfect medium rare, expertly seasoned, with little gaminess and a cooling yogurt sauce that really brought the dish together. All in all, it was a fantastic meal and easy to see why this place is such a favorite among both locals and tourists. The food, the drinks, and the service all come together to make this a great option for any occasion from a casual night out (us) to celebrating something memorable like a graduation (several were happening while we were there).

We were going to make a reservation but a credit card was required - that felt excessive for a reservation on a Wednesday night so we risked it and just showed up. We were early (5:30) so we got seated right away. We got a variety of appetizers after my mocktails (very gingery, yum!). The ribs had a great sauce but were overcooked a bit. The burrata was nice but crostini was so hard I thought it might tear up my mouth. Gnuddi was tasty but very oily. Great ambience and perfect for a wine drinker - extensive list. We would bring family or friends there for a night classy night out, but it wasn't overwhelmingly amazing to us.

We started with the sage and cheddar biscuits, which were wonderful, and the glazed pork belly with chili crunch with toasted cashews - the combo of the nuts and pork was really delicious. We then had the Niman Ranch pork chop and grilled steak frites. Pork chop came with creamy polenta, mushrooms, and a blueberry glaze - I'm hungry just writing about all this. The chop was grilled to perfection - moist (no pink meat) and nicely charred for the flavor. The glaze is a hint of sweetness and the creamy polenta is a winner. The mushrooms are an excellent compliment. The grilled steak was also cooked to perfection - medium rare. The flat iron steak is such a great cut of meat. The fries in duck fat were very good. For dessert, we had a chocolate masterpiece. The meal was well priced considering the location and the time of year. And while the meal was special, it was the service that really made the experience special. While being utterly professional, the staff is also friendly and on top of it. I regret I didn't ask the hostess her name, but she was excellent - filled our water glasses without being asked once, and asked if we would like clean utensils after our appetizers. Our server was also excellent. I'd have more pictures usually, but we were so hungry after a LONG day at Sand Harbor, we forgot!

We seated ourselves inside since there weren't any outdoor tables big enough for us. We were greeted quickly, given menus and water -- and unfortunately, that was the high point of the service. Our server was noticeably rude and a bit combative from the start. She took our order and then disappeared. The food itself was good -- our table ordered a mix of salads, sandwiches, burgers, and wings -- but it came out very slowly. Half of our group waited ten minutes or more after the first plates arrived. No one checked on us, no drink refills, no "how is everything," nothing. I eventually had to go up to the bar just to ask for the check. The frustrating part is that the location is great. The outdoor seating is beautiful, with multiple levels and even an outdoor bar. I'd absolutely come back for the atmosphere alone -- just with a smaller group, and definitely not with the same server. She gave off major "my parents own this place" energy.
