    bacon scones, ham & cheddar croissants, cupcake, morning bun, coffee cake
    Steve L.

    One of the best bakeries I have ever visited. Since they are only open one day a week, it's easy to pick your 'special treat' or 'cheat' day. From their freshly baked croissants (ham & cheddar, plain, chocolate) to tasty morning buns or a creative bacon scone, it's hard to go wrong with anything sweet or savory. I can't ever choose, so we get both types. Since the line can be long in the morning, dress accordingly for a wait in line outside. It's worth the wait! Our most recent savory discovery: Kale, Delicata, Green Onion, Potato & Gruyere Quiche. Bought an entire quiche and it did not last long. Great combination. Great staff!

    Almond croissant and chai macaroons

    Only being open one day a week, the line gets long, so my boyfriend showed up bright and early before opening to grab some treats for work and for home. My boyfriend tried the quiche which couldn't make it back home to me, and it looked incredible as well as him saying it tasted great. The almond croissant was okay, a little dry, and I wish it had more filling, but good almond flavor. The chai macaroon was also okay, but overall just tasted like sugar, and was very gooey inside. I expected the chai spice to have flavor or spice instead of mostly taste like vanilla. I also tried their brown butter cookies which I was so sad to be disappointed in as it was the worst of all. It fell apart in my mouth like burnt sugar. The office tried the scones which was liked but unlike a typical scone as it was soft. We also tried a morning bun which was delicious, and there was some sort of plum tart item that was also well liked. Overall I think this is a decent place, but surprisingly does better on savory items, and for the difficulty of acquiring I don't know if we'll be back.

    I know I know... Two weeks in a row. But when I learned it was Friday, o just had to have another breakfast galette. This time the lube was Way longer. It took about 35 minutes before I could get to order. They also offered to heat the breakfast. Not in the microwave, they have a heating oven that heats it slowly. Takes about four minutes. But that way the egg comes out perfect. Interesting thing, everybody in line is friendly, sociable, everyone is just super happy to be here. If you try this place she will find out why everyone is so happy. There's a coffee shop next-door Pacific crest coffee that I will try next time. Also, there are quite a few businesses around, so parking can be a little bit tight.

    Looks like I found my favorite biscuits, and they're from Sierra Bakehouse! So glad I found this place while browsing for places to try during my vacation in North Lake Tahoe. The bakery is only open on Fridays so of course we had to get as many items as we could. My friend ended up picking up all the sweets they had available and a few savory goodies. My absolute favorite from our bakery haul are the biscuits and gravy. The biscuits are different from the usual ones you get from cafes or fast food joints. They portion is huge, flavorful, and more bread-like in texture. They were amazing with their sausage gravy! I also toasted one and just added honey for a sweet treat. Would definitely go back when I'm around the area again!

    Is there any gluten free options?

    Yes. When I was there yesterday (7/3), the pecan sour cream coffee cake, raspberry peach almond pie bar, and brown butter rice krispie treat were all GF. See my review with menu photos.

    You know you have a problem when the folks in the s'mores truck know your wife by name and she…read moreknows them! But what a problem to have. S'mores of every conceivable flavor, milkshakes and s'more pies too. Incredible selection and all that sweet goodness. At the rib cook off we split a pie and loved it. The crust was a crunchy graham cracker and maybe caramel then chocolate filling covered with a very rich meringue. If you're going to have a cheat day this is the place. Look for the small pink trailer and indulge. Being a food truck they are often at events like the rib cook off but will be at your wedding, birthday party or other festive event. You gotta have s'more fun so drop by.

I did come to the event twice Friday towards the very end, they ran out (understandable) but I did come back again Sunday early evening, and they were out. The cashier was very apologetic and explained that the demand was high this year and they ordered more but even that ran out. Nonetheless, the shake has the best rich flavoring and I think it's so fun to walk around and drink. Makes me feel like I"m 12 again! I think their whole business name and look of their truck is the cutest, and I bet it's the most common photo backdrop for many. Maybe I can catch them at another event through their instagram as I would love to try the pie one day!

    This place felt like Willy Wonka opened a milkshake bar for the Instagram generation…read more We stopped by Black Rock Dessert while looking for ice cream and instead found milkshakes on steroids. We ordered the Dust Storm: a vanilla milkshake with chocolate bits, topped with a giant blondie skewered dramatically on top, plus whipped cream, sprinkles, and chocolate drizzle. The rim of the jar was coated in marshmallow dip and graham cracker crumbs because apparently subtlety has left the chat. Honestly, the presentation was on point and exactly the kind of milkshake kids dream about. Which is why we ordered it. My tween declared it "the best milkshake I've ever seen in my life," and honestly, that alone made it worth the stop on our mother-daughter trip. Taste-wise, it leaned very sweet for me and didn't have a ton of flavor depth beyond sugar overload. But clearly the goal here is maximal fun and aesthetic, and they absolutely nailed that. It's basically a photo op you can drink. The shop itself was surprisingly quiet when we visited in the evening--we had the whole place to ourselves--but there were games to play while waiting for our order (we pulled out Pick Up Sticks, which transported me straight back to my 90s childhood living room). The ladies at the counter were also incredibly kind and patient explaining the menu and flavors to us. If you're looking for an over-the-top dessert experience your kids will talk about for days, this is your place.

    I am a bit torn on Black Rock, but it's a great dessert spot nonetheless…read more Stopped in at Black Rock Dessert on a Thursday evening. Just one lone employee was running the place. In my opinion, it wasn't enough. There was a steady flow of people, and she couldn't keep up with orders and customer service. We opted for two small scoops of ice cream for the kids: chocolate and Cinnamon Toast Crunch. We also ordered the sizzling blonde brownie sundae. It was about $20 for three items. The ice cream was very good, especially the Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Very unique flavor and great texture. The blondie was a bit of a letdown. First, the blondie was not "sizzling". It wasn't even really warm. Only placed in a waffle iron for a few seconds. Second, it seemed very dry and crumbly, maybe even overbaked. I thought the ideas at Black Rock are fun, and I think trying one of their milkshakes should be my next visit. However, there are a lot of great ice cream spots in Reno. For just ice cream, I think there is some heavy competition.

Their focus is on high quality local sourcing within a 100 mile radius of Truckee and North Lake Tahoe. We were staying nearby and hadn't tried this fine dining restaurant yet. Chef Marshall Smith. 4.3 rating on Google and Yelp. The restaurant is located in the hotel complex in a modern wood building with an attached fully enclosed and heated exterior patio. It not a large restaurant and not overly filled on a Friday night. Food was better than we expected. Both entree hit the mark. Service was solid. They provided good help with ordering and all our needs. Food Review: HAUS FOCACCIA -- ($10) 3 pieces, made in haus fresh every day was a little more brittle than we liked but solid flavors and texture. High quality olive oil and vinegar in a cool container. 9/10 HEARTH ROASTED BEETS ($19) burrata, pistachio, blood orange, raspberry vinaigrette, mint was a beautifully plated salad. Nice fresh balanced beets, cheese and fruit. 9/10 ORA KING SALMON ($52) lemon dill beurre blanc, quinoa roasted vegetable medley was a huge portion of beautiful salmon. It was cooked perfectly and accompanied with a nice quinoa bed. 10/10 PAN SEARED SCALLOPS ($48) orange marmalade, roasted mushrooms, arugula, pistachio crumble had 3 large scallops cooked perfectly with a nice fruity and nutty accent. The small middle salad was also well done. Great for those who don't need huge portions. 10/10 Overall - Very Good Food - Excellent Decor - Very Good Service - Very Good Value - Good Would we come back - Yes
