Plumas Pines Grill - Almanor

Watch out for the extra charges! Sandwiches come with a side and although the server said a Cesar salad was extra or a regular dinner salad was extra we did not order a full salad or a censer salad but had a cup of chowder a salad which were placed on the plate! The sandwiches $19 plus additional $3 or 3.50 on both sandwiches. So that brings the cost to $22 for each person. Server never did a refill, did not tell either of us that the two items were extra. $50 for 2 with one non alcoholic beverage. Over the top. And on top of that the bread was old. Probably was frozen!

We hosted our son and daughter-in-laws' rehearsal dinner on the beautiful outdoor deck. I can not say enough about Stephanie and her staff for their friendliness, warmth, and attentiveness. The food was absolutely delicious. I can't wait to go back!

Food is always great and the mixed drinks are always the best!! I love sitting outside on the deck.

My wife and I ate dinner here last night, the food and service were good. The toddler running around screaming was a bit much to take when you're paying over a hundred dollars for dinner. The worst part was I think he was related to the owner, so no one said anything.

Plumas Pines has been a favorite spot almost as long as we've been coming to Lake Almanor. It's the only place you can boat up to and dock your boat while you eat. The outdoor patio (with lots of repositionable umbrellas to provide shade on hot summer days) can accommodate many large groups, and has beautiful views of the lake. Don't worry about any specific dress code, we're pretty much always in swimsuits and covers every time we go. I will say service is usually on the slow side, normally because of a huge influx of people over the 4th of July, so just be patient and enjoy the views. I think the Onion Rings were the MVP's of this visit. They had a light tempura like batter, were fried to perfection, and the onions were cooked enough that they were soft with a tiny bit of crunch still. The calamari was also tasty. It had a different batter than the onion rings, and I LOVE when places include the little squids with tentacles. So yummy! I ordered the fish n Chips, which had the same light batter as the onion rings, perfect for the fish! It was probably some of the best fish n Chips I've ever had. The chicken salad sandwich wasn't over dressed, was light and refreshing on a hot summer day. They often have live music in the evening and rotating specials. I recommend making a reservation whenever eating here, mostly in the summer. For me, Plumas Pines is iconic Lake Almanor, especially if you have a boat!
