At Cottonwood Restaurant and Bar, fine dining, comfort and camaraderie join to create a truly matchless Sierra dining experience. Spirited tales of mountain adventure continue to echo within one of the nation’s oldest ski lodges, which was hand built from salvaged railroad ties in 1928. Revel in unmatched views of downtown Truckee and the surrounding Sierra from the vast dining room and expansive deck. Cottonwood has it all; a rich and vibrant heritage, a lively music scene, a full bar, and an adventurous menu created by the Executive Chef of 17 years, David Smith. Which is why Cottonwood Restaurant was voted “Best Restaurant” 6 years straight in the “Best Of North Tahoe” poll.
Executive Chef David Smith earned his culinary credentials in kitchens from New York to Alaska, but has buried his roots deep at Cottonwood, having been Executive Chef for fifteen solid years. Dave mixes creative zest into a menu that abounds in flavor & substance, featuring sustainable seafood along with the best organic produce and grass-fed meat from the foothills and the nearby Sierra Valley.
