Jesse Sherman
We went after a day of skiing for a good old American burger. We had two families, a party of eight. The service was pretty slow. When we did get our food it was very good. The portions are large, you could almost share with another person if you weren’t starving. a great place for higher end American food. Service would probably be better if you sat at the bar.

Below average food and over priced. I don’t like writing negative reviews but this meal left me no other option. Had the (Seafood Tag, $43) pasta dish with clams, 4 of 6 clam did not even open after cooking?…. Not very fresh?? $23 sliders trio with cheese costing extra?? We had shroom pie (Mushroom pizza) it was undercooked and the Whiskey Ribeye was about the best part of this meal. Obviously the kitchen needs to put a little more effort into the final product. The cocktails were good and thats about it.

I hadn’t been here in over 10 years and my memory of the place wasn’t super positive. I am so glad we tried it again for lunch because it was really good and Amy our server was delightful.

Great selection of beers. Food was good but could be better, the chicken sandwich was absolutely massive and great but the fish tacos were fairly bland unfortunately.

WOW, this is the place to get all kinds of amazing food when in Truckee. We recently drove up to see the snow, and the downtown area was the bigger draw. Magical and magnificent in all it’s holiday glory. The snow was piled up everywhere so you could walk around and see all of the beautiful stores and restaurants. We found the Bar of America at the edge of town, and what a find. Warm and welcoming coming in from the 23 degree weather outside we quickly found a lovely table by the Christmas tree with views of the outside snow. We had the best waitress, Lexi, who went out of her way to help us with our coats, and to patiently explain the menu to us. Being first timers we needed that. She could not of been nicer. My husband ordered the Fish and chips with iced tea, and I got the amazing sirloin burger, med rare, with sauteed onions, bacon, swiss cheese, tomato and all the condiments I could add on. I also ordered their amazing hot cocoa which did not disappoint. Both our choices were just so delicious and fresh, add all of this to the cozy, comfortable and seasonal dining room and you have yourself a hit, all the way around.

I felt like it was a really cool building and definitely felt like a Trukee must. Full bar and lots of interesting drinks. The food was not the most amazing. It really was not worth the price(I may be biased since I was visiting from Texas). Service was a bit slow but the server was very nice.

Our server Brennan was wonderful and attentive! The food was epic but unfortunately the manager ruined the whole experience. We were seated in the indoor/outdoor area with our twins (1 year old) whom sit inside their wagon. We keep them in there to keep the mess down. They were happily coloring and crinkling their paper, the noise was moderate. We are at Bar of America so it didn’t seem to be an issue, I consistently looked around to make sure. The manager (bald and handlebar mustache) tried to seat an elderly couple right next to us, they asked to move. Seemed fair that they wouldn’t want to sit next to some toddlers. The manager proceeded to ask us to take the child menus away and have them do something quiet. I laughed and said oh they have instruments and he cringed. I felt so uncomfortable the rest of the meal. I was a food server for 8 years and have been a nanny for 13 and have NEVER had someone ask this before and I also have NEVER asked a table to do that. Children make noise and if an elderly couple would like to sit somewhere quieter that’s fair but that’s not the little children’s fault. Also I’d recommend asking the couple if it’s okay to sit near kids. Many people don’t like them and that’s okay but this WAS NOT handled well. The best part is I took a video of the boys doing what they were doing with the paper menu and color crayons. I’d be happy to provide this to the owner of the restaurant for further proof that what the manager did was unacceptable.

This place was hyped up by a friend we was staying with for the jalapeño poppers alone. They delivered.
