    Loved this place. The food was outstanding. My hanger steak was exceptionally tender, and the hollandaise with sea urchin was a revelation. Our party also had the duck, the scallops, and the sea bass, and they were all excellent. For dessert, we particularly enjoyed the mushroom-flavored ice cream (!). Great place!

    My boyfriend and I dined at River Ranch Lodge in Tahoe City on 2/15/2025, and we had such a great experience! Our waitress, Banga, was incredibly sweet and kind. She took the time to help me navigate the menu and made thoughtful suggestions, even though I'm quite selective with my choices. I ordered the Chophouse Cheeseburger, and my boyfriend had the Pulled Pork Sandwich--both were absolutely delicious, with excellent quality and generous portions. We were both very satisfied with our meal and highly recommend this restaurant. We'll definitely be returning whenever we're in the area!

    Wonerful. Always offering quality mountain lodge meals at reasonable prices. The staff is friendly and helpful every time. It is a warm and cozy room with a fire. What more could you want? Delicious bread bowl clam chowder and elk pot pies. Great appetizers. Nightly specials. Thrre is always someting gor vegetarians. A build your own salad opion is a great feature. The crinkle cut fries need to be removed from the menu. Don't let these fries dissuade you from going there. Just don't order them. Beware, they come with the fish and chips. The fish is good but the crinkle cut fries need upgrading!
