The food was delicious; however, the coconut crusted calamari was a little tough. The hula pie was fantastic!! The atmosphere was wonderful, and the view of the lake just makes it even more amazing!! Our server Carlin was FANTASTIC, she was so attentive, kind, sweet, and treated us like family—it was an absolute pleasure having her as our server!!

I really liked the place (nice view) and folks were friendly, but OMG the salad prices!!! I took the Buddha salad which was $25 thinking it would be a copious portion. See the photo. No protein.. salmon was $14 extra which would out this at $49!!! You have to be kidding.

*FIRST REVIEW IS FOR THE LODGE, 5 STARS, RESTAURANT REVIEW BELOW, 2 STARS* We loved our stay at Sunnyside Lodge over the 2025 new year’s holiday! Service was outstanding, the rooms were super comfortable, and they had lots of little extras. We really appreciated the super comfortable beds, high-quality, soft sheets, ample room space, basically everything we needed for an enjoyable short day while skiing. They even have ski lockers to store your gear. Their included continental breakfast was outstanding, we especially enjoyed the bagels and smoked salmon. Also really appreciated their afternoon freshly baked cookies and warm beverages! Beautiful location right on Lake Tahoe. The only thing that would make this stay even more perfect would be if they added microwaves to the rooms. They do have mini fridges and the restaurant kitchen is happy to warm up anything for you. The carpet on the main level can use a refresh, but I am sure they are on that. Again, their customer service is outstanding and all their employees are super helpful which we greatly appreciated. 10/10 Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again. RESTAURANT We had dinner here on New Year’s Eve upon arrival. All three of us had the halibut with greens and mashed sweet potatoes. The taste was delicious, but the portion sizes were TINY! We were so disappointed. The fish ended up being 5 ounces which is more like a lunch portion, and the mashed sweet potato and collard green portions were probably about 2-3 ounces each. For the price, they could’ve been a little bit more generous. When we addressed this with management a couple of days later, they said that we could’ve asked for more side dishes, but who has ever done that at a restaurant? We did not return to the restaurant to dine.
