Where the locals go

Used to have lunch here at least once a week when I worked at Northstar. Now I can only get there on weekends, but the Blue Coyote offers excellent "pub" food, several beers on tap, a full bar, and multiple tv's throughout the restaurant tuned to just about any sports broadcast on earth, even monster-truck foolishness! (The sound is off, though, on almost all of them, so it's not super noisy.) they are located behind the 7-Eleven heading in towards Truckee. Seat yourself, waitstaff will show up quickly. Taco specials are always on the menu, their onion rings are wonderful, various wraps are excellent. Lots of kid-friendly food on the menu, too. When you get sick of paying the prices in the Northstar "village," pop on over to Blue Coyote for a nice meal!
