Mountain View Barbeque

I've been visiting Walker Burger for decades, and it's just a joy every time…read more The staff are always very friendly and helpful, and service is efficient. They have a beautiful outdoor eating area with good shade options. The menu is surprisingly extensive for such a tiny spot. Burgers, fries, and shakes are all excellent, like "wow, I wish I could get burgers this good when I'm not here" level good. They even carry gluten free buns for those of us who can't eat wheat, and they're shockingly good! They also have good options for vegetarians. I'm always raving to my friends that they should stop here to eat when on the East Side. It's an absolute gem.

Now serving LOCAL Park Ranch Beef? SAY LESS and GIMME MORE!…read more Can't believe this is my first review of Walker Burger, as I've likely stopped here a dozen times over the years. A roadside burger, fresh and hot fries, and a rich creamy milkshake are a necessary part of every trip through the area, and whenever we're between here and Mammoth, Walker Burger is THE STOP. For starters, the vibes are just perfect. The wait in line is where it starts, as the sun is typically beating down as you wait to order in the dirt parking lot, making the shade from the narrow porch and the friendly hello from the order taker your first reward for being here. Usually I'm hungry from a busy morning of breaking down camp, and a 1/4lb Walker Burger with American cheese, fresh veggies and secret sauce on a fluffy fresh seeded soft bun always hits. Summer time usually has me ordering a fresh seasonal fruit shake (peach) but honestly every shake is fantastic and I also LOVE the coffee shakes, which are made with real coffee and coffee beans for extra punch. Fries are always hot and fresh, and best of all they come out crispy without asking for it! Service is always friendly and fun too. What makes this spot special is the garden dining. Picnic tables are scattered throughout a well shaded area offering travelers a cool and relaxing area to enjoy their food. We've definitely done this a few times, but typically take it to go and enjoy it (and the glorious mess) on the way home. Walker Burger is a MUST! Have you been?

Chicken In A Barrel BBQ- South Lake Tahoe

Chicken In A Barrel is a fantastic option in the South Lake Tahoe area. I usually don't expect much…read morefrom the food in Tahoe but the food was memorable here. The space is spacious and clean. There is quite a bit of seating outside on the patio with some cute string lights. The menu offers smoked meats, sandwiches, and appetizers to share. They also offer a beer tap where you can try an array of beer and ciders. The food came out pretty fast on a Sunday night, about 8-10 minutes. Pulled pork grilled cheese with pepperjack- The pork is smokey and tender. The flavor is great on its own but if you wish for more bbq sauce, its pairs well with the spicy bbq. The pepperjack is melty and savory. The sourdough is toasted and holds up well. All in all, this was a delicious sandwich and would recommend. French fries - one word. Sensational. Crispy on the outside, potato-y interior. Pairs well with the BBQ sauce. You can upgrade your side of chili to fries for an extra cost which is worth it in my opinion. Cornbread- Awful, tasteless and incredibly dry. Skip it. Great service, fantastic BBQ sauces, and tasty meats are reasons to come back here. This is a great spot for big parties or if you have your furry friend with you.

Hello? Is the chicken in the room with us? The name is…read moreChicken in a Barrel. It is a misnomer. This is not a chicken place. There really isn't a lot of chicken to choose from. We came here given the high reviews. We did not enjoy any of the meal. FOOD - The only chicken was dark meat on the sad lettuce salad - The bbq plate, despite looking browned and slow cooked lacked flavor - Sandwiches, my boys did not find enjoyable. Too many filler veggies and not meaty DRINK - We tried all the beers. Didn't like any, which is severely sad. We are hoppy or dark beer kind of people. There was a musician playing outdoors, which would have been nice to enjoy on a good summer's day. We were just too miffed about the bad food and beer to stay.

The food hits the mark, especially if you're coming in hungry. The bartenders bring great energy and are genuinely engaging, which adds to the experience, though it can slow things down a bit during peak rush. With a slight shift in flow during busy times, this spot could really elevate from good, a to go-to. Worth the stop, however Baja in West Bowl or the main lodge is still the jam for this mountain.

The food itself was mid but at the time it really hit the spot because of the hunger talking…read more Price-wise I'm not sure this is the best deal, since it was a bit pricey, but if you didn't bring any food with you then I'd say 360 smokehouse is the restaurant to go to. Much better than the other options on the mountain. Their rooftop tables have really nice views because it's at the top of the mountain. I wouldn't come at prime time though because it is a little small so the space for lining up and grabbing your food would be packed like sardines.

You have the option between pulled pork, chicken or beef. I chose the chicken, dark meat with Mac and cheese. The Mac and cheese was a little dry, but ok overall.
