    Kimchi calamari
    Stephanie B.

    Had a reservation here for a party of 12 on a Monday evening for dinner to celebrate a birthday. The place was packed and we were seated about 10-15 minutes after our reservation time. They have plenty of parking in their parking lot. They also provided a while coloring book for each kid with colored pencils. Service: Service was very slow. It took 25-30 minutes after we sat down to get our drinks. My son's kid's meal was supposed to come with milk (which I asked for) and it never came. I had to ask a few times for a refill on my iced tea, which I felt they should have noticed and brought one without asking. Food: Food was very good. They started us with warm, complimentary house bread and butter service. I really enjoyed the kimchi calamari and was pleased it was a large portion. I ordered the Miso black cod for my meal, which flaked easily with a fork and was on top of a bed of Asian style vegetables and broth. The kids menu offered some healthy options as well and I got my son the grilled chicken with vegetable (broccolini). Our large party ordered a variety of appetizers and entrees, and everyone spoke highly of the food. They brought out a red velvet cake dessert for the birthday celebration. I didn't see the bill, so I'm not sure if it was complimentary or not. Ambiance: nice view of the lake and sky during sunset. Overall, good food and lake views, but service was lacking.

    Shrimp, Avocado + Mango Stack
    Jason H.

    Warmly greeted and seated within reason of our reservation time. However, it seems Chart House has continued its downward slide. The meal started out well with a very nice shareable Shrimp, Avocado + Mango Stack. But my starter, the Caesar Salad, was bland and unremarkable. It was more like a prepackaged salad from Costco. It was lacking enough dressing, cheese and any seasoning -- and anchovies would have been nice for the price. My entree was uniquely spicy for salmon and the entire entree on the small side. It was flavorful and cooked to perfection, however. The Mini Lava Cake would have been a nice way to finish to the evening, but by the time was got utensils to eat it, the ice cream was melted on all three and fell off the top of the cake. Annoyingly, someone in our party had to ask for utensils after each course. Perhaps they were overwhelmed with it being Father's Day. Which reminds me, I booked my reservation months ago. Chart House called me a few days prior to advise me that it was a Holiday Menu only, and asked, "Is that okay or would you like to cancel your reservation?" I don't think that will be a concern going forward.

    Chocolate cake with icecream
    Navneet S.

    Chart House in South Lake Tahoe is definitely worth a visit. The view alone makes it a great spot, especially if you can get a table overlooking the lake. I had the coconut shrimp with rice, and it was really good. The customer service was excellent--everyone was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. We finished with the chocolate cake and ice cream, and it was the perfect dessert. Great food, beautiful scenery, and awesome service. I'd definitely come back.

    2 lb King Crab $175
    Angela J.

    Came here cuz I was looking for a fine dining place hoping to get some high quality food. Thankfully we came during happy hour because if I would have paid full price for most of the items I would have been super pissed. I'll start with the positive the kimchi calamari and the firecracker shrimp were pretty good. The one thing that was fantastic was the king crab. Now for the crap the mussels were over cooked and tasted terrible. And I feel like that's an understatement . The lettuce wrap were seriously underwhelming the chicken was dry and even the sauces weren't that tasty it was just overall very bland. We also order a few drinks I asked for a vodka sprite and lime and whatever they served me had no carbonation in it and almost tasted like just water and vodka. Just an over all not great experience. Probably won't ever be back.

    seared ahi
    Hayden L.

    A restaurant this expensive with a 3.9 rating is concerning but after eating here, I can say we definitely didn't even experience 3.0 quality. I will say the view is very nice, but the photos were definitely taken before some of the trees grew in because it is mostly obstructed. That being said still beautiful. The restaurant itself seems nice. We were a group of six and our table had pop-up wings that were crooked leading to drinks being spilled and other shenanigans. Waitress was a very interesting person, a highlight being when she took our drinks for almost 15 minutes to refill them (Shirley Temple and Dr Pepper). As far as food goes our appetizer, some sort of tasting platter was very good, one in our group ordered salmon also good. Everyone else's food extremely disappointing. We added the Baja shrimp to two of our steaks, and they popped it on top of it to cover the fact that it was a terrible sear. The steaks were probably a five or six out of 10. But for the price you're paying, it should definitely be more than that. I believe the ahi was $48 on menu and it is the photo shown above, quite literally the worst thing I've ever eaten. our waitress recommended switching the furikake rice to the mango sticky rice, which I did, and then when my food was brought out to me first off that was the presentation I got. Second, they didn't include the bok choy. Which is listed on the menu. We asked our waitress about it and she said oh don't worry the bok choy is disgusting. You're not missing anything. By the way, that is exactly what she said.. later that night, one of the people in our party got extremely sick with food poisoning we believe that it may have been the Baja shrimp. eat here with caution know what you're getting into. We definitely won't be coming back.

    Caesar salad
    Stacie L.

    Breathtaking views. Nice spacious restaurant. It's always a great experience here. The service from Amy was great...she was smiling and optimistic, fast, attentive and very knowledgeable of the menu. In fact she was so prompt that it was the quickest steakhouse dinner we have ever had. The new twist on the Caesar since our last visit was a pleasant surprise. Steak was a little overcooked but still delicious and fish was cooked perfectly. Table side espresso soufflé martini was fun to watch and a light, sweet, smooth cocktail.

    It's crazy to see that (at the time of this review) this place only has a 3.9 star rating. By far, some of the best NY Strip and Prime Rib I have ever had. The blue cheese butter is a must! The swordfish and calamari were delicious as well. And the chocolate lava cake.... I'd order 3 more if my body could handle it (also it takes a while for preparation, so make sure to order early.) Serving sizes are huge and great to share with parties of 5. Customer service is amazing too. David is a very friendly and fun employee. Thanks for dealing with our shenanigans and obnoxious jokes haha. Also if you're lucky to have a table right by the windows, the sight is beautiful as well, especially during sunset. I definitely see myself coming back here multiple times, just gotta save up a little bit because it sure isn't cheap haha.

    Creme brulee and cheesecake
    Tiffany H.

    Driven past this place multiple times but finally got the chance to eat here for a business meeting. They had a set menu we could choose from. Started with Cesar salad. I got prime rib with mashed potatoes and my friend for the Baja salmon with shrimp and rice. Everything was flavorful and cooked perfectly. Got creme brulee and cheesecake for dessert. It said it was supposed to be served with raspberries but they ran out so they gave us a side of blackberries instead. Service was great! Would eat here again

When we were seated they seated us directly against a wall with very limited table space for four girls. We ordered wine flights (actually a great deal 4 wines for $25) and apps. We all were very hungry as we just got off a plane but they don't really have anything that is meal worthy more or less just small bites. The burrata was so yummy but the toasts were a little hard. Buffalo cauliflower dip was great and I loved the combination because I would've never thought to have a dip with cauliflower, cheese and buffalo sauce! When we ordered the apps we didn't have any table space left and the waiter took quite a while to pick up our prior plates and bring our bill. If you want outdoor seating I would recommend you go early as it fills up very fast and anything over two people will be hard to get in.

If you're looking to spend a lovely couple of days in Lake Tahoe and need a place to stay, this is the place for you! Talk about paradise; look no further. Tahoe Mountain Home is a 9,000 square foot private vacation home that can house 30+ people easily. Sitting high above the lake, this property offers awesome views overlooking the lake. I recently came over the weekend with a group of friends and was able to discover all that this property has to offer. The house offered over eight bedrooms and sleeping for the entire guest, all the rooms come with their own name; honestly, I felt like I was in a mansion! My mouth dropped as I drove up the one-way hill to get to the house, the place is HUGE! There were different access ways to the entrance, a fabulous hot tub in the back of the house that fits 4-5 people comfortably and a big parking lot that fits over 10 cars easily. This place is exceptional! The house is located 5-10 minutes from all of the fun entertainment including the casinos, restaurants, and bars and lounges. We took Uber every night and didn't have an issue at all. Now, on to the BEST part, it was SNOWING the WHOLE.WEEKEND. I have yet to experience snow before, so this was not only fun for me but exciting! Now, driving in the snow was not exciting at all, trust me, but playing in it was FUN. On the last night of our stay, we received emails and news reports that there was a blizzard coming and that we may be snowed in. Okay, I became scared once I received the news, but that quickly changed when we had the housing manager come over. Josh is the 'housing manager' and the night I became very anxious about the snowstorm, he came over with his lovely dog and informed our group that we were going to be Okay. He discussed the weather and even asked all of us for our car keys while he plowed the driveway so we can leave much easier to leave for the next-day departure. Can you believe that he moved all 10 cars and plowed the driveway all by himself? OMG, bless his heart! After Josh left, my group advised me that Josh is a wonderful guy that comes throughout our visit to check in with us. I was so touched by the personal touch. This property, as well as Josh, deserves MORE than 5 stars! Yelp, we really have to work on expanding the 5 stars (emoji: smiles). I definitely would recommend staying at this property. I look forward to my next stay. Thank you, Josh, for your amazing hospitality during our stay!

The outside walk to the pool is the equivalent to those found in less expensive motels. The promise of a private beach for Landing guests is very misleading. Use of it required ticketed entry.

We also have a friend who is a photographer and we haven't had professional photos taken since our wedding 18 years ago so we thought The Landing would be the perfect place since they host weddings here and it's right next to the beach. There are so many excellent parts to mention but I will start with the staff. From the moment we walked in, everyone was so friendly and welcoming to us and our dog. Our 15 year old had just passed and so our 12 year old was a little lost and loved all of the attention. She was treated just like one of the family. They even allow dogs on the free shuttle which is so perfect so we were able to go into the village and have lunch with her. It's a downhill walk back and so pretty, so we enjoyed the fresh air back. They upgraded our room and the views of the lake were perfect. It was so easy taking Juno out for potty breaks. It was extremely quiet and clean. The heated floors and toilets are a nice touch. We had dinner one night in the restaurant and it is the best meal I've had in Tahoe. The Venison is unbelievably tender and flavorful. My husband loved his homemade pasta with huge prawns. Our server, Kevin, went above and beyond to make the night special. They even let us take a few pictures in the bar area which I think turned out really cool with all of the bottles and colors in the background. Of course we all come for Tahoe! This place is right on a perfect spot. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets, some trees and grassy areas also made for perfect pictures. We were there right at the start of Memorial Day weekend so it was extremely quiet and peaceful. I'm sure it will get busy in the height of summer but even then being able to walk across the street from your room makes it so convenient. We want to thank everyone at The Landing for a perfect trip! We can't wait to do it again!

My kids also enjoyed the pool and playground, and the area is beautiful. The staff was also very friendly and super responsive to questions and requests. But the heat in the rooms is very real. We figured with lower overnight lows that we would just pop open some windows and it would be fine. We live in a house with no a/c and that works for us at home. We also got two swamp coolers for the rooms and a fan. What I hadn't factored in is that for safety, the windows only open a bit- maybe 1/4 of the way? And only one window opens in any given area. That meant that our room did not cool from the outdoor air very much at all the first night despite our best efforts. Things were somewhat better by the second night, but still quite warm. We could only sleep with fans pointed directly at us all night. The hotel is very clear about this limitation of their rooms, so I'm only deducting on star, but know whether this will work for you.

If you enjoy having one person at the front desk with 20 people in line, this place is for you. If you like having a ski locker (which they give you a lock for)which actually has no lock on it at all ,then this place is for you. If you like getting on a shuttle bus that has no ski racks and you practically kill yourself getting on the bus with your skis and poles, then this place is for you.
