Pancakes were excellent, Gluten-free version was decent. French toast was ok, had a cooking oil aftertaste, not what I had expected.

This place was the perfect spot to stop by for breakfast before going skiing! Even though vegan options were not listed on the menu the staff helped me make the pacific wrap with honey dressing vegan (soo good!) and cooked my oatmeal in water and it was delicious with some berries on top! Even though they were busy, the wait time wasn’t too long at all. Gluten free options available too.

Great food! The Short rib Benedict was gas, as was the steak and eggs. The chef even made my gluten free friend a special sauce for his birthday.

The food here was absolutely delicious! My husband and I didn't know what to expect when we visited as we googled "Best Restaurants in Lake Tahoe" and Evans came up with such high reviews. We wanted a special night out and this was the perfect place to go! The restaurant itself is small and cozy, making for a tight fit, but the food made up for the close quarters. The waitstaff and the chef were absolutely amazing with catering to my husband's gluten and dairy allergies. There was tons on the menu for him to eat and they were educated and helpful on the topic! They even had dairy-free ice cream for him to have for dessert! That almost never happens. I got the Halibut and the dish itself was a work of art. We loved it so much, that my husband the next day said how he wished he could eat it all over again! Definitely worth the price!
