    One of the owners, Teri

    The BEST food and atmosphere in the area. The chef is gifted and the new owners are lovely and entertaining. The outside seating area takes you back in time to a slower pace of life surrounded by great friends, food and wine. Highly recommend and we will be back!!

    Linguine & Shrimp
    Kelley M.

    So excited to have the Drifters table open!! The new owners are amazing! We had a party of 6 of us on their opening night with the new owners Chuck & Teri and everything was fabulous! The steak dinner was outstanding, Caesar salad has anchovies (you can ask to have it without), I had the linguine with shrimp, and the kids split a burger. The polenta is a must have appetizer, to die for!! We enjoyed dessert after dinner! Five stars all the way!!

    Outside patio

    Food done right! Beautiful atmosphere indoor or outdoor seating, both are comfortable and inviting. The food is bright and fresh, and I'm not a dessert eater normally, but Jeannie's desserts are ALL fabulous. It's a great destination dining experience. Not far from Truckee, Portola, Reno. Nice drive for a date night to come on out and enjoy a beautiful meal with a beautiful view.

    Lamb shank and fish - so good!!!!
    Mason B.

    We have eaten here the last two Friday's and it is by far our favorite date spot in Sierra county. The service has been great and the food is top notch. Had the lamb last weekend and it was truly the best lamb I have ever eaten. My husband had the fish and loved it. Wine selections were awesome and the owner was happy to help give suggestions on what to order. This week we ordered the Porterhouse to share - phenomenal! We ordered it rare and it was perfection. The lemon blueberry buttermilk pie is a must have - don't bother sharing, you need your own piece. Loyalton is so lucky to have this gem of a place

    S’moregasm - S'mores Milkshake

    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.

    This place is one of my go tos for the Nugget's Best in the West Rib Cook off. My go to is the…read moremilkshake plus a smores item. I was excited to see that they had a pie on their menu. 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!

His favorite is German Chocolate, and even though it wasn't listed on her website, Angela said she would be happy to make us one! It was a leap of faith ordering from a bakery I knew nothing about, but we were SO HAPPY with the results! Even though she had a wedding order that same day, she made us a gorgeous German Chocolate cake and even delivered it! The cake was a perfect ending to a wonderful birthday party. EVERYONE raved about how delicious the cake was! The cake itself was rich and very chocolaty, the frosting was dense and fudgey, and the Caramel Pecan filling was ;positively Orgasmic!!

The carrot cake was awesome and it's my husbands favorite so he was super happy. We also did custom cupcakes with the most adorable designs - the s'mores was a hit with the toasted marshmallow on top!! Absolutely amazing. We will definitely be using her again! She was also so flexible about delivery and made me feel so comfortable when we were talking in the phone. Can't reccomend enough!

    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.
