    I am a daily coffee drinker. And when i travel i always look for a coffee shop and Coffeebar was…read more100 feet from my condo, so it was an easy choice. Since I wasn't looking for a pastry or breakfast I can only comment on the excellent coffee. Cappuccino was perfectly made and the Americano was rich and bold like I like. Whatever beans they use are excellent in their espresso blend. The service was excellent, and everybody had a smile on their face. The only thing that was odd to me was plastic stir sticks. Why would i want to put plastic into my hot drink? Made no sense when you can use cheap wood recycled stir sticks.

    We were staying at the Olympic Village Inn last weekend and since they did not provide breakfast we…read morehad to find breakfast elsewhere. We saw this place while walking in the Olympic village and decided to stop in. We walked up to the counter to place our order and the person taking our order, a young black girl was so unfriendly. Probably the most unfriendly person I've seen in a long time. No smiles. Looks like she did not want to be there. Sometimes I wonder if these places should hire robots instead of humans. This place was also very expensive which is understandable since it's in the middle of nowhere and everything has to be shipped in from far away. We ordered 2 almond croissants which were not as fresh as I expected. We were hungry so we had no choice but to eat them. In hindsight we should have driven to Tahoe City 15 minutes away. I'm sure we would have find a better place for breakfast. We sat on the patio which had a great view of the mountains which was probably the only positive thing about this place. On our next trip back to Olympic valley I don't think we will be going back to this restaurant.

    Unbeatable location across from the lake in Tahoe City. Live music on a Monday at lunch time on MDW…read morewas fun. The place has a nice vibe and a big bar. The menu was an array of apps like Bao buns, guac and chips to birria beef rangoon, entree salads and burgers including a mushroom burger. They were a bit understaffed - one bartender and one server. Neither super friendly or forward with info - we had no clue on the flow or what and where to go. We figured it out, but clearly a bit of an issue. We ordered at the bar, but from a server, and then sat outside. The poke bowl, while a tad bland was hearty, filling and solid. The deep fried onions on top were a really nice touch, although I did feel like it was over the top salty - I ended up drinking like a gallon of water when I got home. The Bloody Mary was really good... so props on that drink, with a blue cheese olive and all. Overall, such a solid spot. Well designed, hip and a solid menu. I'd come again if I was in the 'hood. * bonus for some limited parking in the back lot.

    TL;DR: The restaurant somehow forgot my bday reservation I made and PAID FOR nearly a month in…read moreadvance. Onsite staff scrambled to seat our party of 11. Food was overall bad and soda was completely flat. I reached out to request a refund and they fucked up the amount refunded, while still charging me 22% gratuity LOL. This experience was a stain on an otherwise incredibly perfect weekend celebration in Tahoe. I had my 30th birthday dinner here and it was a terrible experience-- although NO fault of our direct waitstaff. They tried their best in a chaotic situation... IDK where the communication dropoff occurred. I submitted a request on Evo Hotel's contact form 3 weeks in advance to request a large party reservation and got in contact with their events coordinator, Alexis. While the restaurant doesn't typically accept reservations, she offered an event hosting fee to confirm our large party of (originally) 12. I agreed to the charge (BTW, which was $990.23 after taxes and service charges, and required $750 food/bev minimum). This included 22% gratuity. Signed a contract. Soooo I basically paid almost a grand in advance. For a table that's not even in a private room! I just wanted the peace of mind :-/ A day prior, I let Alexis know that my party size had changed to 11, and she responded that it had been updated. OK COOL, CONFIRMED RIGHT???? LMAO The night of, the staff were completely confused why our big ass group was saying we had a reservation because, again, THEY DON'T TAKE RESERVATIONS! Only when I mentioned ALEXIS and showed the contract on my phone, they basically scrambled to get us seated ASAP. Fortunately there was space, but the restaurant was nearly full... Imagine if I paid $1k to wait outside for an hour or something??? Waitstaff were very flustered and apologetic, and throughout our meal I had to reexplain the situation to different people, who each seemed even more confused than the last. Frankly, I would've considered another restaurant when we found out the reservation wasn't honored but 1.) I already paid and 2.) where tf am I going to seat 11 people on short notice who are hungry after a day of hiking and climbing?! The food was just... Not good. Some dishes were passable, but: - Soda was totally flat. Like you left it out on the porch in a hot day. - Guacamole was unseasoned... Basically CUBED avocado with no salt. It was so egregious this became a running joke in our group - Fried rice was SO salty and unpleasant - Chicken was undercooked in the salad... - Fries came out cold. - Poke was bland. Both fish and rice basically had no flavor The only thing that was good was probably the Seafood Pan Roast and cocktails. My friends got through the meal to kindly avoid worrying me on my 30th birthday, knowing I had been stressing about planning this weekend for the past three months... We only sent back the guacamole and soda, but SO much food was left on the table. Nobody took takeout boxes back or even considered getting dessert. On top of all this mess, they didn't even acknowledge that it was my birthday even after finding the contract LOL. The staff finally decided that the check was considered covered by my $990.23, so no addtl card was ran. Good thing we asked for the itemized total before we left, because it was actually $483 (before tip/tax). So WAAAAY below the food/beverage minimum. In good faith I fully expected us to exceed the minimum because we're all huge foodies! The night before, a group of 5 of us literally spent $400~ at Sylva... I reached out to Alexis after my trip and requested a refund. While apologetic, she only waived the $750 minimum, 3 items and the soda, and still charged me for 22% gratuity. PLEASE BE SO SERIOUS LMFAO. I'd still tip 15% for the hardworking waitstaff-- or whatever the typical restaurant large party auto-gratuity is-- but 22% for all this mess????? And then as if it couldn't be a bigger mess, her email wrote the refund was $462.32, but the new attached invoice listed $426.32. Girl. To her credit she also sent a $50 gift card but unfortunately there's no way I'm coming back. This is probably the most negative dining experience I've had in a long time... I was genuinely shocked. Sad bc my bf and I stayed at Evo in Utah and had a great experience, and hyped it up to our friends (they have a rock climbing wall and a skate park in that location!!!), so this was a big disappointment from start to finish. And you did it at my 30th bday dinner :-(

    Some friends and I were staying at the village in the Palisades and we wanted to all grab a nice…read moresit in dinner. For appetizers, we got the wings to share. These were surprisingly a solid 8/10. It was well seasoned and the texture was crispy. I didn't love the dipping sauce too much, it had a pepper like taste which I didn't care for. I thought the wings stood out on its own and didn't need a sauce! Cesar salad with chicken: this was an easy 10/10. The salad was fresh, and I knew the salad was going to be delicious because they served it with anchovies. Delicious! The chicken reminded me of rotisserie style. Good stuff. Duck Breast: 8/10, I'm usually skeptical on trying duck since I'm a Peking duck lover at dim sum style restaurants, but this was pretty good. It was cooked perfectly, had a decent amount of meat to it. Came with a side of mash potatoes. Dessert: we ordered the pear pie with vanilla ice cream. This was gooood. An easy 10/10. The crust on this pie was made to perfection and had the best texture. The flavor, full pear slices, with a bite of vanilla ice cream, I meannnn, I was definitely thinking about it the next day. Highly recommend! Our server was also extremely kind and attentive which made our experience even better. Overall great restaurant especially if you're staying at the Village in the Palisades!

The poke bites are a lil small (although delicious and absolutely worth it!!!) so keep that in mind while ordering. Courtney was our server and she was great. Service was overall good but at times a tiny bit slow, but probably no fault of the staff.
