(Not sure why the heading defaulted to "Big Bear Local" here...) *Tropicali* is a local take out spot that specializes in poke bowls, although their menu includes a lot more. It's one of the busiest and most popular places in the local area. Make sure you call ahead to ask how long the wait is, and be prepared to get in line. https://www.osotropicali.com/

Portions are generous, and food is cooked after you order. Try the Bolivian part of the menu, it's amazing.

As of now, this is the only public launch ramp available to boats due to low water levels. However, kayaks and jet skis can still launch from the larger ramp on the east side of the lake.
