    Saltgrass Steakhouse is located in the Nugget Casino in Lake Tahoe. The setting is very nice and casual, but the food is high quality as are their prices. We started with the fried mushrooms, which was very good with a thick breading that had a spicy kick. Most of the group decided on burgers, and I decided on the filet Oscar's with baked potato on fried asparagus. The filet was good, but was cooked medium well instead of medium, so it was a bit dry. The Crab Oscar was more like a shredded crab salad so it didn't compliment the filet to me. The fried asparagus was really good, with a thick batter, that I probably would've enjoyed as an appetizer and preferred it grilled with the filet. My granddaughter was treated to a chocolate cake birthday dessert and it was so rich and delicious. Our server, Senia was wonderful, and attended to us so efficiently, and was very nice. We parked in the Nugget parking lot, which can be pricey, but the restaurant validates, so it's free when dining. Just remember to bring your ticket in for validation.

    Group of colleagues and I were craving a good steak after a long night in Tahoe. Stumbled upon this place and I'm glad I did. The service was excellent and took care of me and my colleagues. I ordered the ribeye steak and it was cooked very well. Probably one of the best steaks I've had in awhile. I definitely will be back when I'm back in Tahoe for the weekend. I give this restaurant an easy 5/5 stars review. The steak was phenomenal. The bread they serve as an appetizer was also very delicious, especially when you put the butter they had. Chefs kiss.

    Stateline NV Tahoe decades ago was the coolest of the cool. Where Elvis and the Rat Pack would play. Liberace. John Denver and all. Suits. Ties. Maître d's. Powerful families owned these casino hotels and were sticklers on quality. This restaurant is at least a decent call amidst the overhyped often sad corporate homogenized Stateline bait and switch spots. Serious money is being poured past years into this long ago Sahara Tahoe location. This 'steak place is worth the money, and is a cool mid-range spot with some good old school service from locals that remember the fun of '70s '80s Stateline.

    Rattlers were delish!

    This wasn't our first visit--we've been here several times, but it had been a while since our last visit. We enjoyed it so much that we came back for lunch one day and dinner the next! The highlight of our dinner was our server, Ryan. He was friendly, attentive, and made the evening even more enjoyable. I ordered the Salmon Caesar salad both times because I loved it that much. My husband ordered the ribeye on both visits, and it was cooked perfectly each time. The rest of our family enjoyed the Salmon Oscar, and everyone agreed it was well worth the price. The kids' menu was also a great value. We skipped the appetizers since the portions are so generous, and we always end up full! One thing we did notice is that the bread they serve now is much better quality than we remembered from our last visit. We'll definitely be back the next time we're craving a great steak. Highly recommend!

    Center cut filet and baked potato.  The potato was awesome, the filet mediocre.  For the price I paid, definitely not worth it.

    This steakhouse is conveniently located amongst the casinos in South Lake Tahoe, and is inside the Golden Nugget. I tried it twice, but I have been far from impressed. I wonder to myself how a steakhouse can serve non steakhouse quality. I ordered the center cut filet which is always tender. Mine was not such. I didn't complain but I probably should have. So, I gave them a try the next day and ordered the avocado toast, this is when I knew that they have no clue. Staff are nice but not too attentive. Place is clean, but when I spend the $$$ I expect good food. The food here does not live up to what anyone going to a steakhouse would expect.

    Popped in for a quick drink. A little disappointed that the old fashion didn't have a large ice cube. But it was good. Nice seating at the bar or tables. Worth sitting outside if weather permits!

    Salmon Oscar
    Louise E.

    For dinner, we dined here since it's convenient and just in the hotel. I opted for the salmon oscar so i could share it with my toddler. It's lump crab meat with fried asparagus. We both enjoyed it. I also tried my husband's Pat's ribeye and it was really good. Our server, Zack was amazing. He kept checking in on us and made sure we were well taken care of. As for the ambiance, it was slightly dark inside so it gives off a cozy vibe. Although, we were seated near the kitchen and there was an exit door near us so it kinda kills the mood specially with how busy our table location was with all the people passing by.

    This is inside the golden nugget hotel so we stopped here for dinner after a long day of skiing. The service was great, but the food was very salty. The portions were also huge so I couldn't finish haha. That salmon filet has gotta be the largest I've ever eaten. The fried asparagus was also very crispy and the perfect pairing with the fatty salmon. I also had their complimentary bread which was very delicious with the whipped butter. Their Paloma was also quite good although more on the bitter side of things. I tried the grand sangria and it was much sweeter and tastier. The prices were pretty high. The entrees all cost like 40-60 dollars. Our dinner at Riva Grill later cost about the same but the portion sizes were even larger.

    Sauced mushrooms
    Subhi K.

    We were there on Saturday with they had special - prime rib. I ordered prime rib with mush potatoes on the side. We also got sauced mushrooms for the table it was delicious. Service was great. Luis did amazing job. He did above and beyond. Ambience is special. Worth trying

    fried pickles
    Tony Y.

    if you're looking for steak, look no further! Saltgrass has a large menu and also serves breakfast! we came for dinner, and seated promptly. They started off with some complimentary bread for the table, which is always appreciated by us two. My gf and I were so happy to see the fried pickles on the menu,so we got them and they were fantastic. We ordered a ribeye steak to share and it came out to a perfect medium! With the price of beef going up, it's understandable why it was a little pricey. Definitely something I would order, once in a while. Other than that, the service was amazing and we would come back just for those fried pickles (the ranch was also nice, but on the watery side). The decor in the restaurant was also on par with the theme (western and historic) .

    Don't waste your time going to the more expensive steak houses in South Lake! Boyfriend and I came here twice in one weekend during our trip. It's great!!!! They start you out with a roll of bread. We got the loaded fries to start, and the baked potato soup. The soup was delicious! For entrees, we got a Texas T-bone and a bone in ribeye. We also got a side of loaded mashed potatoes. They had cheese, sour cream, and bacon bits. Also ordered a side of broccoli. The steaks were topped with garlic butter. I wish the loaded potatoes were a bit hotter and my steak was medium rare (I asked for medium, better under cooked than over cooked!). Minor complaints. The second time we came back we decided to get a country fried steak. Might be better than the Texas T bone, for me! Our service was great. Recommended a good red wine for me. Also gave us an extra bowl of soup for free. The ambiance feels like you're in a midwestern country steakhouse.

    It's a "steakhouse" located in a casino.... (today, located in the Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino) Saltgrass Steakhouse is part of the Landry Restaurant Group. For those of you familiar with the Landry Restaurant Group, you might have expected something a little different but suffice to say it was simply "OK". Steak was ok. Tried their fried pickles... Well, you gotta like pickles if you want to like this dish. Ordered the Grilled Shrimp Add On to the steak... Alright it was decent. My dining partner and I sat at the bar. The tables and dining seating area reminded me of a coffee shop or cafe more than a steakhouse. But I won't judge; maybe it was the atmosphere they tried to project. Bartenders were nice. Food movers were nice. It was OK

    Salmon Oscar with broccoli
    Craig W.

    This past weekend we were in Lake Tahoe for a fundraising event and wanted to try a new restaurant, so we went to Saltgrass. All things considered, we had a good experience, and we'd likely return next time we visit the area. The positive? The food was excellent. The negative? The hostesses and the waiter. My wife had the Salmon Oscar and simply loved it. She got the broccoli as a side, and it was a plentiful helping. She also said the broccoli was fresh and nicely cooked. I had the pairing of the NY and grilled shrimp, with a baked potato as a side. The steak was cooked perfectly. The shrimp were a bit small, but the lemon butter was a nice pairing. It's hard to mess up a baked potato, but I've seen it done. This one was perfect and had just the right amount of butter. For dessert, we shared the carrot cake...boy, was this good! We were sorry we didn't order two. We would return for the carrot cake alone. It was very moist, and the frosting was just the right amount of sweet. We loved it! When we arrived, there was a gaggle of folks at the hostess stand. Not one greeted us warmly, nor were we told to enjoy our meal. We had added a "special occasion" during the booking. No one at the restaurant ever mentioned it. It was extremely disappointing! The waitress was tepid. She would warm up at times, but it was definitely not our best experience. The staff left us wanting, especially for a nice dinner and a special occasion. If we decided not to return, it would rest solely on the experience with the staff.
