Wonderful meal! Jamie K was our friendly server and even held the baby for a bit while we ate! Recommend Octopus and beet salad starters. The wagyu ribeye special was melt-in-your-mouth delicious! Halibut filet was huuuge and flavorful!

Moody’s is a Truckee staple that’s been around for a while. We last ate at Moody’s about 10 years ago when our then 12 year old son raves about the elk burger. It was just the two of us for a late birthday celebration and we opted to sit in the quieter dining room rather than the boisterous (but fun) front area. Service was very good and the food was as expected. Nothing truly outside of the box but predictable and comfortable. We split the beet salad which was light and refreshing. We then split the duck served two ways (breast and confit) and the steak frites with bernaise sauce. I had an east side cocktail served in a heavy coupe which I really liked. I imagine their other cocktails like the queen bee and the paper plane would be tasty too. This place is rather expensive for Truckee and it may be another decade before we go back as we continue to try some of the other new and old restaurants in town.

Nice evening at Moodys. The food and service were good but a bit below our expectations. The atmosphere was very nice and the outdoor seating was great. We would certainly return but for the price they need to raise there game a bit.

A cute spot in a historic hotel in Truckee. We went for lunch and the food was very good - their famous tomato soup was great, and the salads were fresh and crisp. Our server was friendly and our food was out quickly, overall a great spot for a casual but upscale lunch.

Excellent restaurant in downtown Truckee. The service is top notch. The food is locally sourced and very fresh. The tomato soup is legendary. The cioppino was light with perfectly cooked seafood. Good wine list and lots of creative cocktails. It gets busy- reservations recommended!

Just shared the hamburger with brisket cheeseburger. The special for $115 for a rib-eye steak was a bit much. Burger was good. They charged eight dollars to have it split. A little is excessive especially when they did not share that with us upfront. Atmosphere was good if you don’t mind a lot of chatter. The bread appetizers with warm butter was good. Our waitress was very good but got a little over busy serving two large tables.

Unassuming on the exterior, the restaurant is charming and warm on the interior. The al pastor chicken was fantastic as were a number of other dishes our party ordered.

We came for a romantic evening as the restaurant stated in its "About" section. It was way too loud to be romantic. We were not even in the room with the music and we still could not hear each other. The atmosphere is of people having a good time. The food was beyond good. It was fantastic!
