Restaurants near Hartless Guard Station

My boyfriend and I dined at River Ranch Lodge in Tahoe City on 2/15/2025, and we had such a great experience! Our waitress, Banga, was incredibly sweet and kind. She took the time to help me navigate the menu and made thoughtful suggestions, even though I'm quite selective with my choices. I ordered the Chophouse Cheeseburger, and my boyfriend had the Pulled Pork Sandwich--both were absolutely delicious, with excellent quality and generous portions. We were both very satisfied with our meal and highly recommend this restaurant. We'll definitely be returning whenever we're in the area!

Our dinner experience from checkin to dessert was fantastic. Greeted with smiles and acknowledging the birthday celebration, being seated near the window with a gorgeous view started off the relaxing evening. We started with ahi crudo, bread and lovey kir royale and Negroni. Our entrees were flavorful and the right temperature when delivered. Skirt steak, sea bass and truffle ravioli…just delightful. 27th. Desserts of afergato, bread pudding and French press ended the meal. Fantastic service and attn to detail.

The food was absolutely spectacular. We thoroughly enjoyed everything including the Wolf Bread, Caesar Salad, Wagyu Ragu, Brick Chicken, Goat Cheese Balls & Stonefruit Cobbler. Everything and I mean EVERYTHING was absolutely delicious!! The restaurant is just GORGEOUS and the lighting is stunning! Our waitress was attentive making sure we were happy and satisfied at every turn.

We both loved our filets! My mom got a mocktail (I believe it was called lakeview lemon) and she really loved it! It was also my mom's birthday, and they brought her a free small sticky toffee pudding that she loved! It was really cute with a candle, and white chocolate square that said happy birthday!

We were there on “Taco Tuesday “ - the shrimp tacos were delicious, as was my margarita! We sat at a window table and watched the full moon over the lake!
