Trokay - Truckee

Relax and refined ! Excellent food balanced textures and flavors, service perfect. Vegetarian options: one vegetarian option in every menu section

Michelin star quality and service in this quiet mountain town. A perfect meal with exceptional flavors. Every member of our party was thrilled with their meal.

I went here some time ago with a few friends. We ordered the prix fixe (you kind of have to commit to that or the chef 's tasting menu as a table), and I had the vegetarian option. Totally props for the over-the-top fine dining experience, impeccable service, inventive molecular gastronomy, offering a vegetarian option and all of that. No failures there. But the ridiculous pricing gave me high expectations for the food. What I saw was that the various veggie dishes were all constructed from the omnivirous dishes my friends had, but with the meat left out. Nothing was ever added in or substituted. No veggie dishes that were their own thing. It kind of felt to me like the veg options were an afterthought for such an expensive, fancy place. This review is from some time ago, and the menu does change seasonally, so things may be different. Right now it looks like they have house-made tofu on the menu, and the veggie options seem to be on the regular menu these days, rather than on a separate one, so I might give Trokay a try again when I 'm in the mood for the most expensive place in town.

Exceptional! We made reservations for my boyfriend’s birthday. We got the price fixe menu and the wine pairings. Every single dish was fantastic and we learned a ton about the wine we were tasting.Wine pairing 2.5-3 glasses of wine matched with the courses you choose. I wish there would have been more California wines on the menu (I’m biased! but the wine did not disappoint.Price fixe menu four choices with two special treats from the chef. Exceptional flavors and presentation.There were at least five different wait staff we interacted with, and the host, all lovely and helpful.Total cost of the meal including tip and tax came to $635.00 for the two of us. We spent about 2.5 hours dining at Trokay and most of the next day talking about it. Highly recommend for a special occasion.
