Full service, sitdown restaurant in a casual atmosphere. Indoor, outdoor and bar seating. Good luck with finding public street parking if you're there during a popular time. If I recall, parking is free after 6pm, which is when we went. Fast and friendly service! All their food items are meant to be shared. We got 4 items split between 4 adults and it was enough. Not stuffed by any means, but definitely weren't hungry after. Curds, brusselsprouts, sausage and kale mac, and meatball pizza. Other than the brusselsprouts, which were too large so that the middle of them had no flavor, the rest was bomb. Loved the other dishes so much! read more

We arrived just a little past lunch time, around 2:30pm on a Wednesday. There were a few diners and someone waiting for their pizza takeout. We were seated at a booth in the middle of the spacious restaurant but decided on another for more privacy. We were given a bottle of water and glasses without prompting. Looks like they repurpose liquor bottles for this purpose and I like that very much! We decided on Fried Cheese Curds, Pork and Padron Pizza, and Los Olivos Pizza. They all came out quick. The cheese curds were delicious! Crispy outside and chewy inside, sweet and salty, and the dipping sauce was so tasty we asked for another. We enjoyed both pizzas too, with their flat dough. We were hungry so this hit the spot for us. We weren't able to finish all tho so we brought some leftovers back, which tasted fine cold for dinner! Staff were attentive and friendly. Prices seem reasonable for the unusual ingredients, quality, and portion. 4 stars. read more

Food was well prepared and came out quickly. Service was friendly and hospitable. Pricey. Great ambiance, with a modern/ upscale feel, lots of young adults, families. I personally didn't enjoy the flavor combos -- like the smokey beet salad, oddly too smokey and hiding the naturally delicious beet vibe, the brussel sprouts, while well prepared, the sauce that went with it seemed heavy and mis-matched to the dish, a creamy/ spicy heavy dipping sauce. The mushroom pizza was really, uhhhh, mushroomy-- a little too much, and I love mushrooms! We may have picked the wrong menu items, but it was disappointing, especially for the price. I would definitely return for drinks at the bar however -- the beer on tap, and the specialty cocktails were a treat. read more

Our waitress was awesome. Food ok. Under mew ownership and the new owners changed the menu not for the better. Took away the meat charcuterie board, really bad news. Now there is only a cheese board for $18 and it was pitiful. A tsp of honey and tsp of jam. A couple ok cheeses and some toasted flatbread. 4 slices of pear and 4 slices of strawberry. Not even a whole strawberry. Mac n cheese was mediocre as well. Not much too it and bland. Only reason to go is the pizza. Its good but nothing to brag about. Everything was overpriced. We miss the old owners. Typical meal in truckee though. Pay a lot and leave hungry. Morning update. We were told the pizza flour was not enriched and it was real flour, my wife is allergic. Well it was not a good night. We will never go back. read more

Stopped by for a quick lunch. We ordered 2 pizzas, 1 bone marrow and that was plenty of food for the 5 of us. Both pizzas were great, the mushroom pizza with truffle oil-yum! The pork belly pizza with bacon and other cured meats with crushed pepper flakes and honey might be a bit too spicy for some, but if you like spicy food, definitely try this one. The honey really balances out the spiciness from the peppers. Service was efficient, the place is cozy. If I'm in Truckee, I'd come back again for sure. read more

The quality of the food and drink at Old Town Tap is outstanding. They make pizza that they bake in a Neapolitan style wood oven, and the quality of the operation is apparent in the product. The crust is almost cracker thin and crisp, the toppings are made from the best versions of local produce and meats. But it doesn't stop there: they have a fantastic Caesar salad (made with fresh romaine and radicchio) that is lightly dressed with a creamy dressing (that has a wonderful hint of a bite of raw garlic) and topped with a dusting of breadcrumbs and Parmesan. They serve roasted bone marrow, accompanied by a complete set of cornichons, mustard, and a caper jelly (as well as some arugula). Their Mac and cheese has a decadent béchamel sauce, and uses large shell pasta to absorb the rich cheeseiness of the dish. What's more, they offer high end soft serve ice cream with really nice toppings like cocoa nibs or hot fudge (very similar to the dessert offering at Zero Zero in SF) which is just delightful to have. They also have a majorly impressive selection of liquors (and especially mezcal). The cocktails that I've had here have been great. read more

Wow, wow WOW, our first bites in Truckee and it did not disappoint. We came around 3pm on a Friday afternoon. The inside is quite dimmed but good, because it was a hot summer day.

mediocre by any other standards. by tahoe standards I suppose good. Pizza dough pretty cardboardy. real simple pies. the sausage and meatball were just there. the bacon egg I thought would give carbonara but was more like breakfast. I wanted to try the salmon but they were out sad. I liked the caesar but hated the chicken. was expecting a grilled chicken but received cold deli chicken cut into thick strips. server and hostess was nice and good came out in time even tho it was a packed house. I liked the soft sere but it wasn't that creamy was more iced soft serve. read more

Chain control for those Tahoe bound seemed to be a hit or miss this past winter. Even though you may be traveling through on a sunny day, if it's right after a storm, chain control may not lift over the summit until late afternoon. A normal 4 hours from the Bay Area can easily become over 9 hours like it was for us. I haven't stopped at Truckee for 30 years, but it was such a nice break for a late lunch at Old Town Tap. Sausage and kale Mac n cheese and mushroom pizza being pulled from the oven I had a view of from our table were both excellent and was the warming comfort food I needed before continuing the trek. read more

This place gets busy as one of the most popular places in Downtown Truckee. My son wanted pizza so we came here, not realizing it wouldn't have the standard pizzas he usually prefers. He asked for olives so we ended up with the Los Olivos, which came with kalamata, Spanish olives, goat cheese, roasted garlic, mozzarella and lemon zest. I asked for pancetta too. I was shocked when he ate two slices and even said afterwards, "that pizza was really yummy." Guess this kid is more of a foodie than I realized. Our beet and goat cheese salad with pistachios was pretty basic but very good too. I'd recommend this place if you're looking for good quality food in Truckee. read more

What a beautiful Day to sit outside and soak up the sun and delicious food. We started with Sauvigon Blanc, lucky dog and warm olives. Moved on to Daou Cab, meatball pizza and a kale/quinoa salad. Server (Sean) was AMAZING and never felt rushed. 10/10 read more

We spent the day shopping and stopped in Old Town Tap for lunch, and it did not disappoint. We started with the fried cheese curds, and we don't love sweet so we should have ordered with the honey. The fry on the cheese was delicious. My mom and I love olives, so we went with the Los Olivos pizza and it was amazing. We sat outside and enjoyed the beautiful views! Overall it was a great day of shopping that ended with a wonderful lunch. read more

Interior was relatively clean, service was friendly. The Brussels sprouts were good (4/5) and the pizza was fair (3/5). The cheese, sauce, and meatballs had good flavor but the crust was bland. We're unlikely to return in the future. read more

We loved Old Town Tap! The pizza, cheese curds and drinks were all amazing! I think our only issue was we wish the pizza had been a little bit bigger. For two people it was small, but we had cheese curds too so it worked out. We also would have appreciated more pizza options/variations. Or maybe a create your own option. I like the small details like the sauce with the cheese curds was delicious, and my server made my drinks perfectly strong and complex. I am often dissatisfied with the strength or flavor of craft cocktails but I had two and they did not disappoint. What I appreciated the most was the freshness of the sauce. It tasted like tomato sauce I had in Italy, not super acidic, and full of flavor. That alone makes me want to come back. They make some good pizza sauce! And our server was super friendly, and the place was cozy and clean. We would recommend this place if you're in Truckee! read more

They sat us and a server didn't come by for even a drink order for about 15 minutes. And when she did, she took the order of the couple that sat down next to us about 10 minutes after we sat. This kind of thing is pretty inexcusable. Get your act together, management. Salad was good. It was a salad. Mushroom pizza could have been good. Flavor and ingredients were there. Dough/crust was good and not doughy or spongy. But each slice was about 2/3 crust. The first bite or two had cheese and mushrooms then the remaining 3-4 bites were the crust. Maybe ours was an anomaly. Neighbor table' pie looked better. Bad first impression especially after getting ignored on initial service for so long. Would not recommend the meatballs shareable. Was just plain bad. Had no business being on the menu. It came to the table in a ripping hot cast iron, the meatballs placed neatly on top of a literal mountain of polenta (Why so much polenta?). The meatballs themselves were cold. How! Were they frozen or refrigerated prior? Would fully expect meatballs to be made fresh. Besides being strangely cold atop a ripping hot skillet, they were hard and kind of dry with burn marks on them. The mountain of polenta was watery in places and a little runny pudding-like towards the center. Pizza was serviceable, could see eating it again. Ambiance was good. Probably won't be back. Do not order the meatballs. Shameful. read more

I came here with girlfriends for a friends birthday lunch. To start, we got the cheese and charcuterie board with flatbread. For $33, it seemed rather sparse- a huge board with not a ton on it. We each got drinks- the margaritas were enjoyable, and I got a glass of wine. For entrees, we split a pizza, another got Mac and cheese and I got the kale salad. I should've read the salad description better because the dressing was really spicy! I didn't recall reading about anything spicy but later saw that it said a shisito vinaigrette. The dressing ruined it in my opinion, if I ordered again, I'd ask for a different dressing. Service was average. We sat outside and the ambiance was lovely- people watching and also enjoying talking with each other read more

Stopped here for lunch during a recent trip to Tahoe and they were able to accommodate a group of 12 easily and very quickly! Very spacious interior and friendly staff. Food came out very fast and service was quick. Prices were fairly reasonable although portions / pizza size was smaller than I expected. I liked the sausage and kale mac and cheese -- it was super flavorful and the top was crispy. Thought the potato pizza was okay (too salty on bites with bacon and flavorless otherwise) and the potato chunks were a bit random. The crust wasn't as flavorful as I expected either. read more

Shawn is an amazing bartender, craft cocktail ninja with exceptional customer service skills and a tremendous presence when my girl and I walked through the door. They hired the right man. It's this kind of customer service and feel like your family that makes a restaurant iconic. To also make a restaurant Iconic is the taste and texture of their food. They have an insane sourdough bread recipe that they put on their pizzas is off the chain. Pizza is competition grade world MainStage worthy. I got the Margarita and added double topping pepperoni. A1 taste and texture. I eat at 100s of restaurants and I'm a food retard. I only review restaurants that aren insanely good or restaurants that I want to burn down. This restaurant is not the latter. 5 STARS ACROSS THE BOARD. mn read more

There's a few things to start with. Our waitress was nice but only half our food came and the other half didn't come until we ask them to reorder the food. Dirty dishes piled up on the table and we were all hungry. Shortly after eating three people in our party got food poisoning after eating the cheese curds. They also double charged us for the oily mac and cheese. We only had one order! Not sure we'll ever get our money back, disappointed in our experience. read more

I strolled on into this place hungrier than ever before, we skied the beautiful slopes of the mountain Lake Tahoe and were in the craving for a fantastic slice of fresh pizza Upon our arrival we were greeted by a lovely host and a great server! Our server made the deserts and seemingly was serving each and every table in the establishment. My significant other and I grazed over the menu and to our surprise, there were some unique pizza combinations so we thought we'd give one a try. We excitedly ordered the pork and cardone pizza. 30 minutes later once our pizza arrived i had a sad look of despair as it landed at our table. White liquid piled up from the middle pooling at the center of our pie. When I picked up my slice it drooped from the center down resembling the shape of a sad labradors tail while spilling a white watery liquid sauce like substance with minimal flavor. Overall i was extremely sad about my order and decided to share a slice of the meatball pie that my son Arthur had ordered. My eyes lit up like the flames of the Olympics at the great flavor and texture of this pie! I stayed and enjoyed my alcoholic beverage while always consuming responsibly. Overall I think I ordered the wrong pizza and gave me some extremely low stoke. This restaurant has a great atmosphere and I would not be back again. read more

I wanted to give this place 5 stars because their food was phenomenal. But I am giving it 4 stars due to our service experience. I hope this serves more as a way for management to improve customer service, rather than to scold the employee. My family and I arrived around 4 pm on a Thursday. We were coming from Los Angeles, it was an 8-hour drive so we were looking forward to a sit-down dinner. Everything started fine, we ordered our food and drinks. But we noticed that our waitress Kellie was rushing us throughout our dinner. We were charged for a bird in a cage drink but it was never brought to us until we brought that up to her attention. We wanted to order more items from the menu after she brought us the bill without asking us if we were done. She didn't check on us at any time and we had to wave her down a couple of times. We were thrown off by her demeanor. At first, I wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt and I thought maybe her shift was ending and she wanted to close tabs for all her tables but that wasn't the case. I hope that this doesn't discourage anyone from dining here because our food was great but it's just an experience I hope was only a one-time thing. We started with a sharable plate, of fried Brussels sprouts which were full of flavor and perfectly braised. We also ordered pepperoni, margarita, mushroom, and pork thin pizzas. The pizzas were great and we were all satisfied with our choice. My boyfriend ordered a Hazy IPA and I had two cocktails, "Help Wanted" and "Bird in a Cage" drinks. read more

Came here one hour before they closed, ordered 2 pizzas, caesar salad, and cheese curd. Cheese curd was very tasty and gooey, caesar salad was the highlight of the show, honestly! I love that salad. Very crunchy, refreshing, and the chicken was so juicy too. The pizzas on the other hand, is not so impressive. we ordered the pork and padron, as well as margherita. They told us that they ran out of pork belly so they asked if they want us to have more guanciale, to which I said yes. However, the pizza ended up tasting like smelly pork... it was kinda sad but is not really a deal breaker for me. The margherita was fine, but at this point I have already been so full and happy so we ended up packing the pizza. We also ordered a couple of beers and one ice cream with chocolate sauce. Both of which were ok but nothing remarkable. The people were all very nice and kind, we stayed until closing and we truly appreciate our experience there. read more

We were a party of 7 in Lake Tahoe for a wedding and found this place based on its reviews. The pizza was very good (we got the mushroom truffle and nephew got the pork), brother got the Ceasar salad which was delicious and had tiny bread crumb bits which gave it a nice crunchy texture. The atmosphere is laid back. The service was phenomenal. Our server Sofia (sp?) was fantastic and said she has worked there for 3 years. This is their only location. Would definitely recommend this place for a relaxed lunch for pizza and salads. read more

Devon waited on us at the bar. She let me try a few beers on tap before deciding on the macadamia nut stout which was very good. We tried the pork pizza upon a recommendation. It was just a tad undercooked with slightly salty pork three ways and sweet honey drizzle with pickled peppers. I liked the combination of flavors and the crust was freshly baked in their pizza oven. There was a liquid on the pie, not sure if that was from the pork belly juices/fat or the peppers, but left the pizza a bit floppy which was disappointing. Have been in before and the Mac & cheese is super rich and delicious. They have a nice outdoor patio out front with tables and is dog-friendly. read more

Solid choice for sharing plates for dinner! We ordered the cheese curds, little gem salad, and two pizzas. The service was great. We had to wait for a table but went to the bar and found seats immediately for a bit while our table was being prepared. The ambiance was fun - not too loud and not quiet. The salad was crunchy, dressed well, and a big hit. The cheese curds were also well cooked and the honey drizzle was a great touch. We ordered the mushroom pizza and the Los olivos. I preferred the mushroom pizza over the olive pizza. Both were good but lacking in seasoning a bit. Would recommend and go back but would likely try a red pizza over the white pizza. read more
