    If I could, I would survive on noodles and rice. Shhh... don't tell my trainer, and I hope he's not reading this or I'm in trouble. My cheat days consist of: Chinese food, Mexican, or sushi. Usually, in that order. They offer a buffet here with a decent variety or a la carte for those of you like myself with little to no willpower when it comes to carbs. I placed an order to go for the house chowmein. It has all the meats: shrimp, chicken, beef, and pork. It was a decent portion that I was able to share it with my lil man. It was on the greasy side, but it had great flavor. I would eat here again and hopefully have more time next time I'm passing through or working in the area to sit down and take my time. I did peep the dining room and they offer both booth and table seating in lighting dimmed atmosphere. **Do try their hot Chilli oil if you're a fan. ** My order was given to me 5 minutes later piping hot. Thank you for the great and timely service. I'll be back soon! Check them out if you're in the Gardnerville area.

    We were headed back north up the 395 from Topaz and as we entered Gardnerville I was thinking about some lunch. A friend told me of a little hole in the wall Chinese buffet that was decent and cheap. We found Hunan Chinese in a strip mall next to Raley's supermarket. Looking inside, yep, this is a pretty small buffet, but as long as the food is good, what the heck? It was $13 per person inc. tax, I guess they priced it that way to get an even number and less giving out coin change. The selection had many of the standard stuff, like egg rolls, pot stickers, general chicken, broccoli beef and surprisingly at this price point 3 shrimp dishes, deep fried, "butter" shrimp" and fried whole shrimp. All the food was hot and fresh tasting, and the server cleared the plates each time we went back up to the buffet. While this wasn't the biggest fancy buffet, it was small but we still had our fill and agreed the price was right for what you get here. There is also a regular menu available for made to order food of many things that were not on the buffet, even the usual lunch specials. I thought the buffet was a better deal.

    Best chow mein!

The restaurant is in the northeast corner and has beautiful views of Topaz Lake. It was Spring when we visited and the lake was full and the mountain tops had a nice white cap. Our waitress was a very attentive, patient and friendly server. Between the four of us we order the breakfast special prime rib and eggs which came with toast and choice of home fries or hashed browns. The prime rib was a thin cut, cooked as ordered and just the right size for breakfast., bacon & eggs. The bacon was very flavorful with crispy hashed brown potatoes and an english muffin. We also ordered a side of very tasty onion rings. Lastly, the Southwest Chicken Wrap ordered with grilled chicken. It is filled with blackbeans, southwest sauce, cheese and lettuce. It was a little lacklustered and I don't highly recommend it. The french fries were crispy and yummy. Coffee refills were a plenty. They serve blind dog coffee here which is lovely!

    What should have been a restful night turned into a nightmare…read more Around 3:00 a.m., the toilet in our room suddenly overflowed due to a failing valve, according to engineering. I had to stop the flooding myself, getting soaked in dirty water contaminated with urine and feces. Reaching anyone for help was nearly impossible--the front desk and operator didn't answer, and housekeeping took 10 minutes to pick up. After engineering temporarily repaired the toilet that was on its way out, housekeeping barely cleaned the bathroom. They wiped up the visible mess with towels but never mopped or disinfected the area, despite us traveling with children and a baby. I went down to speak with the front desk manager, Kayla Smith at 5:00 a.m. after losing an entire night's sleep, the only compensation she offered was some resort credit. I asked for a late checkout so we could at least get some rest, but I was told the hotel was "fully booked" and couldn't accommodate the request. On a Monday, that explanation was difficult to believe and felt like an excuse rather than a genuine attempt to help. Beyond the great location, the property feels old, poorly maintained, and unclean. Between the lack of responsiveness, inadequate cleanup, and poor customer service, I can't recommend staying at Harrah's Lake Tahoe. There are better options nearby.

Basically our room was two rooms that have been converted into a suite that has a kitchen, little dining island, living room, and a separate bedroom and bathroom. It has two doors to enter, so a little weird but honestly, super practical. The rooms were very quiet and I couldn't hear any noise from any neighbors. The shower was great and the water stayed super hot through both of our showers. The room was spacious and clean (though the floor could have been swept/mopped better imo). The first night we were there, someone got sick in the parking lot. I called the operator and explained the situation and asked if they had anyone to clean it up as it wasn't exactly what anyone wants to see and to my surprise they immediately sent someone out who was able to clean up that spot!

I will definitely come back though, it had everything I needed! And the slots treated me well :))

This one even had sweet, perfectly cooked carrots. The fried rice was also spot-on: silky egg, peas, carrots, and that familiar flavor so many of us love. Lunch specials run from 11-3 and come with soup, an egg roll, and your choice of rice or noodles. Portions are massive. My only issue, and unfortunately it's a big one, was the service. After taking my order, the gentleman serving me never returned to my table. I couldn't get sweet & sour sauce for my egg roll, and my water was never refilled. I raised my hand several times, but he walked by as if I wasn't there. Finally after waiting for over ten minutes when I was over it, I stood up hoping someone would notice and assume I was trying to leave without paying. That worked and I was immediately handed my check. Of course I still had to ask for a to-go container. The food alone is a 5 star rating, but the service brings the experience as a whole down to a 3. I love Chinese-American food, and this kitchen gets it. Not sure if my race or that I'm a woman was an issue, or if I just got the worst server they have. I hope this reaches the right person because I would like to come back but being ignored and feeling so unwelcome is disheartening.

They were a little too big for my liking and had a creamier texture than I prefer, but overall they were good. Clam Linguine -- 7/10 The linguine was solid. The portion was decent, and I liked the combination of clams, lemon, garlic, and Parmesan. Nothing that completely blew me away, but still a good dish. Might pass on the parmesan next time because it clunked up as it melted in the dish. House Salad The salad was actually pretty good and surprisingly large for a house salad. Fresh lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, olives, and plenty of croutons. Overall, everything is prepared fresh right in front of you, which I really enjoyed. The oysters being freshly shucked definitely added to the experience. The wait wasn't terrible, and if you're an oyster or seafood fan, it's worth stopping by while you're in Tahoe.
