We always come up to Tahoe for my birthday. We stayed at Harvey’s and I made dinner reservations at the Sage Room. We had dinner last year there and it was not good at all. But I really want this to be a go to for us because of the view and ambience.
I won’t go into last year but let’s just say food was not good and management’s reaction was insincere.
This review is about the food. Service was ok, just ok.
My wife ordered the scallops and I ordered the New Steak.
My wife likes her scallops cooked medium well. I understand that scallops are at their best when cooked rare. And I love scallop sashimi. But my wife likes them medium well, so they should be done that way. Nope, rare and not even warm in center. She sent them back and apologized for being so difficult and she understands that most chefs cook scallops more rare than she likes them. When they returned they were even more rare the before. She squeezed one with her fork and the scallop “milk” bled out. A couple of them were cold. Was the kitchen pissed at us for retuning scallops to be cooked more? We told our server and she apologized. I asked for her to take the scallops off the bill which she said she would. But a manger should have come by, absolutely necessary when a customer is not pleased.
I told my server my steak was good, only because I was embarrassed to let my wife know it was not good. No flavor and tough. Very disappointed. I talked her into coming back here after last year’s terrible food. We will not be coming back, at least not for a very long time.
