This restaurant is a little gem hidden in Truckee. Dining there is as if you have gone to a fancy restaurant in San Francisco. We made our reservation via opentable. When we got there we were sat promptly. The restaurant decor is nice. Service is very friendly and our server was professional but with a great sense of humor. Their... more

Our Truckee favorite. Was just there for Christmas, and the food is excellent as always. Service is very good. Sushi is now added to the menu. Always a good experience. more

Secured a reservation for a Saturday night well in advance. We arrived on-time and were seated promptly in the well appointed establishment. The menu, while brief, highlighted local seasonal ingredients. Service stumbled initially, with about a 10 minute wait before seeing waitstaff. After the initial blunder, things sailed along smoothly. We ordered a asian guacamole with plantation chips for dipping... more

If you like uppity hosts, rude servers, snobby atmosphere and so-so food, go to Dragonfly. It is overpriced for what you get and the only reason it gets any good review is because it is one of the only "nice" restaurants in Truckee. I have been a few times and the only reason to go there is for the stiff... more

Excellent menu selection. I've had several items on the menu and all are very good. Not a place to go if you're the type that needs to gorge on a serving to feel you've had your money's worth. Portions, IMO, are just right and attention to detail and quality of food were great. more

Had a great dinner last night with friends in the newly-renovated (very nicely done) restuarant- service and food were top-notch, as usual. Went with the standbys- the panko encrusted basa for an entree and edamames as a light appetizer. Finished with the chocolate/banana wontons with coconut ice cream- always a treat. Waiter recommended a great Pinot Noir that we really... more

We eat at Dragonfly whenever we're in Truckee, and the staples on the menu are consistently great! Some of my family's favorites are the prawn curry, ahi salad and the battered fish & chips, which is served with a spicy glaze dip. It's gourmet food with a relaxed bistro atomosphere and definitely kid freindly. The specials -- especially the Mexican-Thai... more

This meal was so bad, I don't know where to start. The $15 "special" appetizer of a shrimp tempura roll was disappointing; it was overpriced for the portion (one shrimp cut into a four piece roll) mushy, and had a soapy flavor (I believe because of an herb they used). Even though we left two pieces on the plate, the... more
