    Lovely Christmas meal with excellent lobster riviolis, fresh green salad, fucacia, veal saltimboca, and linguini with claims. Tasty and nicely portioned although both entrees were a bit heavy on the lemon flavor. Excellent service throughout along with a fine Sonoma chardannay.

    Christmas dinner. Small place with cozy atmosphere. Food was very good. You could tell the chief take pride in his work. A little cramped but that did not affect the experience. I would recommend when in S Lake Tahoe

    Gar Woods was beautifully decorated for Christmas. We sat at a window overlooking the lake with a beautiful Christmas tree nearby. Our food was delicious and we had very good cocktails with a large list to choose from. They have a very good food menu to choose from-from burgers and sandwiches to prime rib and fish. Our server was very sweet and kind but she must have had a lot of tables because we waited long stretches to get her attention to get more drinks and dessert. But it was Christmas and the place was packed. We will definitely go back again.

    Spent Christmas dinner here with our 3 teens. It was a perfect evening in every way. The ambience & view of the lake are hard to beat (4 pm dinner rez). The food was very good (only reason not perfect was wife's medium rare was a little undercooked). My son had the prime rib -- delicious. I had the salmon, our appetizers were great. The service was splendid...how often do you take your teens to dinner and they rave about how good dinner was?? We will definitely be back whether in summer or winter.
