Best nachos and ambiance! They have a great happy hour for après ski. Loved our waitress- so sweet and fast. The margaritas are on point as well. read more

Go to 22 instead. Went in for lunch. Food is subpar. Make sure to triple check your bill. The menu doesn't reflect the prices put into the POS. Waitress actually tried to argue us on the price saying the menu price is wrong. I'm not a fan of bait and switch lying techniques. Pretty ridiculous. read more

Rocker - New American Near Me - Olympic Valley, California

We enjoyed two meals here over the course of two days. There was 8 in my party and between all of us we have tried most of the menu in those two days. Nachos - Delicious and huge. 8 devoured them in 5 minutes. Chicken and Brie Sandwich - Two people ate this and loved it. Skirt Steak - Not the favorite of the menu. In the three people's opinion it lacked flavor. Pig/pea - super delicious. Mac n Cheese - Bomb. Order this and watch everyone envy your great choice. Stir Fried Veggies - good but also lacked seasoning. Sorta bland. Burgers - several of these with various sides and toppings. Everyone was happy with the burger. Hot Wings - Super Hot and band approved. House Salad - lots of Gorgonzola and the house dressing was delicious. read more

This is an establishment defined primarily by its great venue space, but marred by disappointingly overpriced items. A below average chicken Caesar, which even in SF would cost $12, is for some reason marked at $18. Perhaps it's only saving grace is the drinks which are of average quality and expected price. The Rocker may be quality fare for the Nevadans who lack better options, but if you're a Californian from any place other than the deprived rural and suburban areas, this place will be subpar for you. read more

BEST nachos ever!...and I'm a harsh judge when it comes to nachos. Cheese, chicken, and all the fixin's through every layer from top to bottom. They were delicious. My husband and I sat at the bar and experienced great service and delicious food. They had good beers on tap and I enjoyed my glass of sin zin. read more

Rocker - Best chicken nachos! Every bite was good. - New American Near Me - Olympic Valley, California

The food was bland. Period. No sense in going on about that. The waitstaff..., let me tell you, if it were twenty years ago, I would've kicked some hipster-ass up in there, and I'm the nice one of my three brothers. Pretentious little malnourished d-bags with an attitude you couldn't cut with a chainsaw. Good luck trying to substitute a vegetable. It's like you just said their favorite IPA is crap. These have got to be trust fund kids who were forced to get jobs, because the hell if I ever acted like that when I waited tables. I had bills to pay and a boss to keep happy, and you simply don't talk shit to strangers where I live. But it's Tahoe, so I guess nobody gets their ass handed to them there. Yet. read more

This place has some bad reviews on here, but honestly I thought it was pretty good! Fun atmosphere and good food. The tri tip sandwich may be one of the best I have ever had. Good beers selection and the prices aren't horrible. Used to go here when it was blue coyote....rocker is better. Grab a brew and grab a seat on the patio! read more

Food was alright - server was quite rude. Ruined the entire experience. Get the wings.

First off have you seen the fucking nachos? Those things are next level. Mounds of guac, japs, and pickles ass onions???! Yes please. Secondly, our waiter was a total smoke show. Sam? Call me. Third, the waiter had dog treats for my dog. ARE YOU JOKING ME?! 10/10 would come again. read more

This experience at Rocker was pretty bad. I ordered the portabella sandwich which was just ok. I asked for a fried egg on top but I was served with no egg. My boyfriend ordered a chicken sandwich and the bread was so hard you couldn't even eat it. We sent it back and it took 15 min for another one to come out. The service overall was bad. It took roughly 45min to get our food. The only positive thing was the Bloody Maria we ordered. And to top it off the bathroom was out of paper towels. read more

Rocker - Bloody Maria!! SUPER delicious!! - New American Near Me - Olympic Valley, California

Honestly, not great food and poor service. Pros: - Nice setting against the mountain - Outdoor seating Cons: - The burger came raw - The soup was really bad and when I asked if I could exchange it (after only 2 bites), they had to "check with mgmt". The customer is always right! - Expensive for what you get. - Not a ton of vegetarian options. read more

The Red Dog burger hit the spot after our horse back ride!! So nice on the patio and dog friendly too!! My husband loved the fries and lamb option and family friendly with chicken tenders and sliders for the children! read more

Great place for a ski break. Warm and cozy atmosphere and good service. The food was great but the nachos really impressed us. read more

When we arrived at rocker took awhile to be served water and be acknowledged with menus. When we were, we ordered two bottles of wine but were told they were out of wine. Then, took forever for our nachos appetizer to come out. Then, dinner arrived- was told the vegan sandwich was not really vegan, steak ordered rare was well done(they took back and took off check) and the pretzel we ordered was rock hard. It was a very weird experience. Ran out of wine on a Tuesday? read more

One of those places you go to cause there are only so many places to eat a squaw. Stopped by on our drive back to SF and got the Soba noodles which I would NOT recommend--overly dressed, veggies tasted funny read more

Good apres ski spot right at the base of Squaw. It was difficult to find a table at first. There are plenty of TV's scattered throughout to watch sports. Decent draft beer selection. My family came back here at night for dinner later in the week. The entree selection is a little slim, but the sandwiches are top notch. Good sized portions. I cannot speak for the entire cocktail menu, but I tried my sister's and it was amazing. You could tell that there were some locals floating in and out that seemed to be buddies with the staff. Overall pleasant experience. read more

During Wanderlust I ate here 3 times. The food ruled each and every time, including a visit with rather shitty service. Stars are for FOOD MOSTLY. First meal I ordered the garden salad and while I was alarmed at the price, the quality and flavor changed my mind immediately. Service was impeccable, fast and way friendly, although I didn't catch her name. It was mostly busy, especially in her section. The second time, poor service, inexperienced server, weird excuses and behavior, including giving me iced coffee with a lemon wedge when I had ordered iced tea. Great fish tacos, but we had to take them to go after sitting for 50 minutes food less. The excuse was that the restaurant was busy, but I have to disagree, the whole event was classic bad service. Third time, Panzanalla (or something like that) salad was to go and it was fantastic. read more

I don't get the variability here. We ate at Rockers three times over the course of a snowy week, and had the same experience each time: nice people, prompt service, good food (and surprisingly fresh given the tough weather conditions). The salads, chicken soup, and buffalo wings were solid but the warm chocolate chip cookie sundae dessert is what we really came back for. Lone complaint is that the TVs are a bit loud but our waiter changed channels/tables for us willingly, so even that's a pro. Overall Rockers was the best family-friendly spot in the village we encountered all week. Four stars. read more

Andes Hot Chocolate was delicious, and the service was fantastic! In particular, Drew the host and Erin the waitress room very good care of our table during a busy afternoon. read more

Erin was the best we could've asked for. Super quick with everything and her energy is unmatched

Great time and great drinks. Highly recommend the toasty drinks. Erin, our waitress, was awesome! Drew the host had immaculate vibes.

Changed their whole menu. No more vegan sloppy joe was my only reason to go there. Nothing else on the menu is vegan. Long wait.

Great outdoor seating. That gives it two stars. After waiting for an outdoor table to be bussed we sat down to find it covered in sticky like sryup. Had to have bus boy clean it for us. Menu-weird selection. Kind of scattered options. Service-scattered like the menu. Not enough forks/knives/napkins for our party. We shouldn't have to ask. Server delivered incorrect side dishes (fries instead of salad) and burger was prepared incorrectly (sauce on burger not on side). Salad was delivered smoothered in dressing after the server told me she would have it on the side. Things that should have been caught before delivering the food. Forgot the simple lemon for the water. Water was not refilled. Food took foreeeeeeeeeever. And was meh. Place was not busy. Worst part, our party of seven (four kids) caused us to get ding'd gratuity when honestly the service failed to enhance the meal. Will I return - nope. read more

Very mediocre food. Stay away from the Fajitas. Even endless amount of hot sauce didn't help. The BBQ pulled pork sandwich is good, however and the sauce is tasty. The Mexican shrimp is also tasteless and only 4 shrimp? Really?! Imho, this place is a "pass". Then again, maybe you like mediocre. read more

Rude service. Just left there. Mouth full of food bearded bartender threw menus in front of us finally. We closed the tab and we thanked him and he said nothing and rudely walked away. I imagine the $20 burger sucked as bad but i wouldnt know since we left to have a wonderful experience 50 feet away at Fireside. Dont waste your time. read more

Location is special, in the village at Squaw Valley. Food and staff were great, but not the best place for selecting a wine to go with your meal. The hostess and waitstaff were friendly and nice. The outside dining was full, so we sat inside and didn't get to enjoy the view. But the burgers were VERY good, fries were terrific, onion rings were great, and for those with seafood allergies, be comfortable eating anything out of the fryer, as they don't share the same oil with fish and other fried goodies. If you're in the valley and hungry, this is a good spot! read more

Excellent food and service! We had the burger, Chicken sandwich and lamb naan. All were really good!

Service was excellent! Food was fresh and delicious with very little wait time. Service was also prompt and we didn't have to ask for refills. read more

After trying everything in the village, I think Rocker offers the best menu, most consistent (friendly) service and extends a comfortable, convivial ambiance, during and aprés ski. read more

This place is always a great place to hang. Relaxing outside seating and great food. Wings are a favorite here. I love that they have also added clean eating item. Cause when I am being good I eat clean. read more

Wow, talk about timing is everything. I had just finished my day and needed liquid libation. I picked out this place because it is central in the Olympic Village, and they also had an outside bar with patio seating. Despite the weather report, it was a warm 68 degrees with nothing but sunshine. I was able to place my gear at a nearby rack and I grabbed a iced Cold Deschutes Porter. I had not noticed, but there was a musician warming up and was about ready to play. I did not catch his name but he was a Singer/Guitarist who sounded a lot like Ray Lamontagne. The place had really Friendly servers and they took our order quickly. We went with Chicken Nachos, Spinach Artichoke Flatbread, and 2 Chicken Quesadillas. The rest of our party arrived late and we also added Buffalo Wings, and Garlic Fries to our order. Everything I tried was very good and it was just enough for 6 people. My favorites were the Nachos, Garlic Fries, and the Chicken Quesadilla. Live Music, accompanied with Great Food and with the Friendly service was why I gave this the 5 Star rating. Ps, the Bartender was quite Sassy and told me to go behind a tree and relieve myself when I asked where the bathroom was, but she apologized when told her it was for the Wifey. read more

Came here for both lunch and dinner. Both times were just ok. They don't really have a different menu for lunch and dinner and it's pretty pricy for the food you get. Everything at Squaw is more expensive but this place really isn't worth it. Their nachos had dried burnt cheese. Their quinoa was greasy for some reason. My daughters Mac and cheese was not good at all. About the only thing our families liked were the burgers and onion rings. I liked bistro 22 better and it had similar food. read more

This would not be my first round pick in most other contexts, but if you're staying in Squaw Village it is a great spot to while away a couple of hours. Nachos were a hit with the table. Nice array of nacho-complements, and a great value (2 plates quenched 8 people's nacho-thirst). I had the burger, which was also quite good. 1/2 lb patties seem to be the only option, which I liked. Wasn't a huge fan of the overcooked onion rings/fries though (especially given the nacho party that was going on right in front of me). Pretty robust selection of draft beers, and they're not outlandishly priced. The waitstaff was friendly, and was totally willing to deal with our complex check splitting scheme. read more

Avoid this restaurant. Being local I should have known better but was expecting sub par and could deal with it since the power was out at home. The place was half empty but the service was slow and our waitress could not have been more surly. It took about 45 min to get our food and it was crap. The nachos my daughter ordered looked like they had been sitting around for over an hour. Honestly the guacamole had a brown layer and the cheese was ice cold. My salad had wilted lettuce and was soaked in dressing. I will go hungry before giving this place another dollar for indignant service and junk food. read more

This is a great place for expensive food after a good day on the snow. It's actually one of the better places at the village but one of the more pricey ones too. read more

Rocker - Pulled pork - New American Near Me - Olympic Valley, California

See all

There are plenty of options in the Village at Squaw. Rocker is advertised as a high end burger bar, and while the food was alright, the service was below par on a light Monday night. There were only a few other tables when we walked in. The waiter we had was unfriendly, used a condescending tone when we asked for recommendations, and again when we ordered our burger (make our own), dessert (smores in a jar), and hot chocolate. There's a yelp check-in promotion for this place and when we showed it to him before he brought his check, he told us it might not be possible to use it. After some convincing and displeasure on our part, he took our iPhone for 10 minutes and did not apply the coupon. He had to refund us and try it again.... Food is minimally better than average. Sky high prices. Bad service. Try any of the surrounding establishments for a better experience. read more

I came on a teen tour (a large group of 35) and some tables had finished their food before others even got their appetizers. The waiters also didn't know which food was going to what table. I assumed that we were there close to closing time because they had already stacked all of the chairs and were ready to shut down for the night. The food was good and the staff was kind, however they were extremely disorganized. read more

One of the worst service ever. Kids waited for their meal for over a hour and waitress doesn't have a clue. Stay away. Very rude all around.

Very expensive for what you get. $19 burger was dry and sloppy. Wife's $18 sandwich was totally disappointing. Service was very slow and inattentive despite only three other tables seated. They're really taking advantage of a captive tourist audience. read more

Omg the buffalo chicken Mac n cheese is TO DIE FOR!!! Has a lil kick but the cheese is soooo creamy and I got bleu cheese on the side but mixed a lil in and it makes it. The spiral noodle are thick and soak up the cheese sauce, tastes like a sharp cheddar. One of the best Mac n cheese I've ever had. Not a huge draft list but some good beers. Also had $3 21st Amendment cans. Happy hour is 330-530pm with food specials, a couple $4 drafts and a handmade margarita with fresh agave, very tasty. read more
