I am always pleased with the quality of service and delicious food at Gordon's restaurant. My wife and I went early for cocktails before our dinner reservation, and Amy, the bartender, was very warm and welcoming.

About the restaurant
Perched atop a hill near Kingsbury Grade and overlooking exquisite Lake Tahoe, Chart House is a legendary seafood restaurant known for being an excellent vacation destination. From its prime location, guests can witness Lake Tahoe's most gorgeous sunsets, all while experiencing creative seafood dining and outstanding service. Nestled amongst the trees of the hilltop, the restaurant's modern dining room feels like an extension of the natural beauty of the Lake Tahoe area.

Watch birds soar over the lake while enjoying a delicious meal that includes the best Prime Rib Lake Tahoe has to offer, Spiced Ahi, Sea Bass + Lobster Risotto. Any time of year, Chart House Lake Tahoe is a seafood experience to remember.

About the restaurant
Home of the Wet Woody ® and storybook sunsets, Riva Grill is Tahoe South’s premier lake front restaurant located in the Ski Run Marina. The 3,000 square foot deck overlooking Lake Tahoe comfortably seats 200 guests and is a dining experience that is second to none. Floor to ceiling windows in the two-story restaurant provide an equally epic view of the Sierras and Lake. Since 1998, visitors and locals alike have flocked to Riva for the best food and service in town. Try the bacon-wrapped filet and scampi with Point Reyes Bleu Cheese butter, the renown grilled or blackened fish tacos with apple-jicama slaw and micro cilantro or any of their home made wood fired pizzas, to name just a few. Additionally, a visit to Riva Grill would not be complete without trying their world famous Wet Woody ® signature cocktail. The rum and fruit juice blended drink will leave you with cold hands and a warm heart and certainly wanting one more.

We always have a great experience at Riva! The service and food is always excellent! We typically sit on the patio when the weather is nice to be closer to the water and enjoy fresh air, but it was too cold (November) and late in the day (dinner), so we sat inside and still enjoyed it!

As always, from the valet to the table, service is stellar. My guest really enjoyed the Mimosas, I ordered a spicy Bloody Mary with a potato vodka (Chopin). Our server was professional and didn't bat an eye at my request. She was fantastic from the get-go. I had the Avocado Toast, my favorite (next to the Bagel & Smoked Salmon) - it was amazing. Not your average Avocado Toast! My guest opted for the Rise & Shine brunch. I tried the Country Potatoes and Yum! She enjoyed everything. One of the best views of the lake, in my opinion. And the decor is elegant, mountain chic. As a reminder, they are a credit/debt card only establishment. So tips are good for cash, but to pay the bill, cash is not an option. I have my next trip focused on dinner and my eyes on the Onion Soup and Seafood Pasta!
