When going to a ski resort, you'd expect food to be a little pricier than normal, and not the same…read morequality as a restaurant...with that in mind, Sierra Pub is a good place to take that mid-day break and grab some bar bites and a beer. Stopped by here with Amy T. during a Tahoe snowboarding trip to Sierra and popped in around lunch time. We were able to order pretty quickly despite it being PACKED (football Sunday...). The folks at the bar were nice - I got a burger, fries, and a local Hazy IPA. The burger was super juicy and I scarfed it down immediately, being hungry from snow activities. Fries were pretty standard, and the beer tasted great. Again, yes it is expensive, and standards were lowered, but for what it is in the snowy conditions, it was a great meal.

If you are at Sierra at Tahoe for the snow you'll probably want to eat, and possibly have a beer…read more There are three spots, the Sierra Pub upstairs at the base, the 360 at the very top, and the cantina at the base of Westbowl. While the 360 is my favorite lunch spot - but it's at the top, so if you stop for a couple drinks, don't get too wild on the way down. The Sierra Pub is my end-of-the-day choice - the food is a bit overpriced ($11 for a decent sandwich), and the drinks about twice ($8 beers). The upsides are, decent beer choices (Little Sumpin' on tap for instance), a great view, and you can end your day there without a final ride down. The food varies. It's often crowded. The staff are great though. The better and more affordable snack shops are downstairs in the lodge, but be aware of crowds and large families.

I got the loaded mac and cheese; it comes with jalapenos, fried chicken, and green onions. Solid portion size with lots of fried chicken pieces! I was bummed that the mac and cheese was slightly lukewarm. The cheese that they used was really creamy and good though. Can't really expect much from a quick lunch at a snow resort, but it did what it needed to do.

Ski resort dining is unpredictable... some are just overpriced, others leave you thinking just why…read moredid you spend 20 mins in line waiting to get served! To be perfectly honest, I can deal with limited options as long as it is fast, the food done well and satisfying after a solid morning on the slopes. So with great surprise that i found Mama's Kitchen (Sierra-at-Tahoe base lodge)... and this is the 3 reasons why I gave 4 stars; 1) They have some a-la-carte items but the 8 meal deals on offer is what did it for me. Because they're set lunches, they're able to process a large amount of people quickly... which means I get fed quicker, which means I am a happy skier:) The menu wasn't shabby either... things from the tried and true ski resort food (chicken strips, hot dogs) to things more diner like (speg meatballs) 2) The BBQ pulled pork sandwich KICKED ASS! They serve it on a garlic bread with fried onions (though a little 'slaw would have been nice). All served up with lots of fries. Perhaps I shouldn't be surprised that their BBQ offering was good - given there is a BBQ restaurant on site. 3) Price wise the meals round out to about $13 for a big hot entree, fries and a large drink... I find that acceptable (for ski resorts). A similar mean at Memphis Minnie's SF would have cost $11. Accessibly good restaurant in a well priced resort. Great combo :)

We were seated quickly by the waitress and served water. It must have been short staffed that day because it took a while to get our drink and food orders in. I'll give benefit of the doubt that it was slow season and staffing might be lean. My wife and I ordered Baja fish tacos and the fish n chips plate, I though the texture and execution of the dishes was spot on, very crispy and appetizing looking dishes, the tacos had cotija cheese on top of the fried fish, diced peppers with pico, and the side was a creative play on street corn (corn, mayo, cheese, spices) served with chips. The only critique I'll give is everything needed more salt, but that's better than being salty. My drinks were amazing, blood orange IPA and the clear water lager (award winning). I had a very positive experience and would definitely recommend!

Came here based on all the positive Yelp reviews, but honestly, it was a massive disappointment,…read moreespecially when it came to the food and the final bill. The food itself is completely mediocre. We ordered the nachos and the ramen. The nachos were just okay (we got them with beef), but the ramen broth was way too salty. The real shocker came when the bill arrived. They charged $38 bucks for a single bowl of ramen that only had two pieces of pork belly in it, and honestly, the pork tasted more like regular fried bacon. On top of that, the nachos were over $30. I totally get that tourist areas are bound to be pricey, but these prices are just excessive for what you actually get. People really need to know what they're getting into before they choose to eat here. Definitely won't be back.

To make the experience even better, the owner, Diane, actually came by our table to introduce herself. It's always really nice to see an owner who is that attentive to her customers and invested in the dining experience. For my meal, I ordered the breakfast burrito which, as you can see from the photo, comes wrapped in a great spinach tortilla and served with sour cream, and salsa. It was loaded with egg, chorizo, green and red peppers, onions, and pepper jack cheese. I was a bit surprised, though, because even with so many distinct, flavorful ingredients packed inside, those flavors didn't quite come through. The pepper jack cheese was just a little too heavy-handed and ended up overpowering everything else in the burrito. The other minor issue was that I had specifically ordered hashbrowns with my meal, but I was served the breakfast potatoes instead. They were still perfectly crisp and seasoned well, but just wasn't exactly what I asked for. Overall, the atmosphere and the service made it a great experience, but I just wish the burrito had a better balance with less cheese, and that the sides hadn't gotten mixed up. I'd definitely give them another shot, though!

The food was pretty solid overall. We ordered the Cajun shrimp salad, Tavern burger, buffalo cauliflower, and fish and chips. I'm giving 4 stars mainly because the buffalo cauliflower didn't actually taste like buffalo -- it leaned more toward a curry-style spice. It was still good, just not what we were expecting. The fish and chips came with deep-fried salmon, which unfortunately was a bit dry. On the bright side, the fries were SO good -- they tasted like they were fried in beef tallow and reminded us of McDonald's fries in the best way. Overall, a good spot with a nice atmosphere, and I'd definitely be open to trying other items on the menu next time!
