Driftwood Cafe

We had great service. Wish I had remembered our waitresses' name. My omelet was dried out maybe from waiting for the other 5 orders from our table. My family's food was good.

Yummy food! The nachos are to die for. Loved the black bean chicken chili they put on. They used real shredded cheese instead of queso which was wonderful. Didn't hold back on the amount of guacamole or sour cream so you could have some with each bite! Husband had a club with tons of meat. The only thing was his french fries weren't cooked enough but had them redo it and he said they were great. Nice big portions too. Didn't have the biscuits and gravy but on our way out saw that they looked fabulous so will get them next time. A definite place to go!

This place is a gem. All the staff here are sweethearts. The owner is a true local that looks out for other locals. The food is delightful. I mean nothing to rave about, but it is solid. I eat here at least once a week because I work next door and have not gotten sick of the food in over a year. I highly recommend!

My favorite breakfast in South Lake Tahoe. Highly recommend their take on eggs benedict with a cheesy herb sauce.

Service and server were great. The French toast wasn’t very good; seems like they used whole wheat bread and maybe didn’t dip it much in the batter. The omelette didn’t seem to have much flavor. The Benedict (on the menu and the special) were good. The hash browns and house potatoes were good. Toast was good, too. If you’re staying near Heavenly Village, it’s worth checking out once.

One of my favorites from the area. The food is really good. I recommend sign up on the waiting list online.

The best breakfast that I ever had in Tahoe, for sure we Wil come back everytime we came in vacation!
I got perfect sunny side eggs with hash brown and bacon, it was big portion, with fresh orange juice then 9 got pancakes with strawberries (super fresh) and real maple syrup. 10/10
The whole staff was super super kind and the place looks like a family place!

Cozy place to have an important meal of the day. There is plenty of parking. We were here for the weekends and it was quite busy but fast moving. This place is cozy, warm and inviting - perfect for when it's very cold outside. They serve usual American breakfast menu. We tried their Eggs Benedict special of the day (with hashbrowns) which was pretty good. We also had Michelle's Omelette (veggie option) which was great. Must try potato pancake that comes as a side with Omelettes. I would recommend trying their special if you are around. Despite the crowd, service was quick too but we also got there around 8AM.

All day breakfast and lunch menu. Cozy shop with an express order or sit and be waited on.

The potato cakes are...different. I highly recommend the ugly fries as they were perfectly seasoned and cooked.

The buttermilk pancakes are huge and a short stack of two is probably enough with a side.

Can’t recommend this place enough and wish I were in Tahoe long enough to repeat!

I came here for lunch and ordered a California sandwich. The chicken is tender and the sandwich is delicious. Price is very reasonable and portion is adequate. Definitely will come here again
