Dam Cafe

If the idea of waiting AN HOUR for a breakfast burrito sounds fun, then this is the place for you! Ordered online, said 25 minutes - which is insane alone - but then took a FULL HOUR to get it. Not even all that busy inside. They can’t handle even a mild rush.

I've been there several times over the years. Had good food and very friendly good service. Not anymore. Last week, slow service with only one other group there. Not welcoming, the two women in the back were just talking instead of talking our order. Two groups left while we waited. Too many flies, no screens. Since when do they put rolled up deli cut ham and a fried egg in a breakfast burrito? I seldom complain but if it was once good I think you should know.

Dam Cafe deserves 5-stars! They’re so kind and that makes the food even more delicious. Try their chocolate chip cookies, in addition to their awesome bfast sandwiches. It’s easy to order with them too because they text you when food ready.

Not of the quality I would expect for the pricing. No greens whatsoever in the breakfast buritos or sandwiches, mostly just bread. Maybe that is just the norm, I am not from here. Smoothie was ok though.

The online ordering was easy. The staff was friendly and quick. The food was good. My only minor issue is that the paper they wrap their burritos in sticks to the burrito and comes to pieces as you pull it off. I would definitely eat there again.

Fabulous food & friendly service! The boys loved the sausage breakfast burrito, I loved my veggie burrito and the baby girl loved her grilled cheese sandwich and hot chocolate! Hawaiian hazelnut for me! I want to come back and try a smoothie!

They already closed when we walked up. I was dying for a cup of coffee. In conclusion, we both got our coffee and it is still very surprising fresh considering they are about to pour it down the sink. It is also the warmest coffee in my heart because of the kindness of the owner. Thank you!

Not so impressed with the food, coffee or service. Ordering online was easy and said it would be ready within 10-15 which turned into 35 minutes. The bagel wasn’t great and extremely dry. The hash browns had a very bad taste and texture to it. The coffee was absolutely terrible and I don’t believe the gals new how to make coffee at all. We will not be stopping there again...

This is a very popular breakfast and lunch Cafe! The line and wait was typical for the high tourist season at the end of July here at the west side of Lake Tahoe in Tahoe City. If you show up early right when they open you can enjoy stress free and tasty breakfast! Understand that all, that means all, of the restaurants in the area have significant waits. So enjoy yours at the Dam Cafe.

This is the best bagel sandwich I've ever had!! It always comes out warm, with the perfect amount of ingredients on it. I always get the breakfast bagel sandwich with sausage, cream cheese, pepperjack, red onion, and spinach. Their smoothies are so delicious too. We love the Green Smoothie.

I love how easy the online ordering process was and the safety precautions they're taking during COVID-19.
