    Best spot in Tahoe City. A true locals spot, never the same beer on tap. They have all the best, newest, and rarest beers. Bartender Ryan helped me out and was awesome.

    Great selection of wine and beer. Outstanding cider on tap up in the front (as well as awesome beers for those who can handle their gluten) as well as many liquor selections. GREAT STAFF! Fun atmosphere. Always great music playing and they'll let you choose the next song if you're into that too! Centrally located in Tahoe City near everything!

    Great place to enjoy and purchase good beer. They also sell the hard stuff. (Picture: Hop Nookie by Kern River Brewing Company. Purchased at SiPS buy enjoyed elsewhere)

    Ambiance = amazing

    This is THE place to come to just hang out, have some drinks, chill and relax. The owner is usually at the bar. He'll pour drinks for you, HAVE drinks with you, and be the best Dj you could ask for. Tv on the wall with a good CLEAN sound system. You can play your own songs on a wall mounted iPad as well. Amazing ambiance. Want to have a late night and chill? The owner is down to stay late and entertain. Can't recommend thus place enough. Come to SiPS and make sure you try the Nutty Chicken bowl which is FIRE.

    What a fun stop ! There isn't a big sign so be sure to go into the craft beer store at 599. Super friendly staff and great beer selection.

    Our party of 6 recently went to The River Grill while staying with friends who live in Tahoe City…read more This is always our go to place for a special dinner. The cocktails were made well, food was delicious as usual, but we were disappointed with the service. Normally we go and get excellent service. This time our server (Joshua (Jigga on the receipt)) was not as efficient & friendly as others have been. He did not return to our table very often, seemed put off that we wanted to have cocktails before ordering dinner and would not recommend dishes when asked as he said everyone's tastes are different and he does not know what we would like. Our bill came to over $635 with cocktails, appetizers, main dishes so we would have expected better service. I know help is hard to find but that should not be an excuse. We will still return for the good drinks and tasty food and hopefully get a different server next time. I'm still giving 5/5 as maybe this was a one off on service.

    First time here and I love it!!! The outdoor patio is facing the truckee river, they have live…read moremusic and it's super cute! we had quite a bit of food. The tempura shrimp was delicious lite battered and well dressed. The seared tuna portion was great but flavor was okay they could use a little more torch or a hard sear for flavor. The lamb was delicious just not enough 5 pieces. Now the corn chowder I wanted to cry when I saw milk and corn this was far from being a chowder.. maybe they ran out of it and make this thing and they served it to us....I couldn't believe the chef and server let this go out of the kitchen. Maybe 86 next time instead of serving milk and corn with dry muffin.

    Over the years one the places we would regularly eat at would be Rosie's Cafe…read more Food are decent portions and had trouble with the service. This last time service was so outstanding. The young lady that was serving us was amazing in making sure was taken care of. Definitely worth coming back to next year.

    Came in with my 5 year old and a 2 year old for lunch on a Tuesday…read more 56$ for one adult and two kids. Caesar salad was watery, with 0 seasoning. Impossible to add pepper, as the pepper and salt mills on the table hadn't been churned or cleaned in weeks, and I don't trust taking off the lid - if it doesn't shake out, the clumps won't add any flavor. When I say watery, there was less salad dressing (possibly less than a tablespoon of dressing) than water on the lettuce. There was no dressing on the bottom of the bowl; the advantage of a lot of watery lettuce is that there was a nice soup of shredded costco parmesan and water. 6oz of grilled chicken with no seasoning for 20.99. Ordered a plain kids hamburger, received a cheeseburger, charged for a cheeseburger. I don't understand how a cook can mess up an order for a plain, no-topping hamburger, but they did have a sign for "HIRING COOK ALL SHIFTS" out front, so I guess the kitchen is what it is right now. 6 Dino nuggies and approximately 10 French fries on each plate. Didn't even get out of the restaurant before the kids were complaining about the taste; fry oil was rancid or the frozen French fries had de-temped and soaked in thaw starch before re-feezing, air frying, and being served to my kids. When a 2 year old refuses to eat dino nuggies, you know they're dried to a crisp. This is worse than graveyard casino food from the shadiest meth cooks money can't afford, and I've been a security guard for those spots. Didn't even have an ice maker for drinks in here - this place needs to just close up and offer some better tenants the space to do something besides greaseslop. I don't understand how a cafe offering food this bland, flavorless, reheated-in-an-air fryer can stay open on main street in Tahoe City. It was hospital food being served to a number of retirees with digestive conditions.
