Pizza crust is a 5/5. Toppings were a little thin compared to my favorite pizza place.

Lake Tahoe Pizza Company, or LTPC, as I affectionately refer to it, is one of my favorite restaurants to dine at in town. The ambiance inside has a nostalgic charm, it reminds me of old Tahoe, and brings me back to visiting Tahoe as a child. The pizza and salad bar are also awesome, very creative pies, and novel delicious crusts. Keep it up, LTPC!

The pizza was great! Ethan was off-putting, almost condescending. Flavorful, light pizza, however

This pizza is special. The crust is flakey and almost like a biscuit. This is a must stop place in Southlake. We got the garlic chips and Hawaiian pizza with sides of homemade ranch all of which were incredible. Cool spot for a pizza and some beers in the bar area.

This is the best pizza in South Lake Tahoe (and I've tried many!) I ordered a simple pepperoni pizza and it came with just the right ratios of meat, cheese and sauce. The sauce, by the way, was outstanding; not sweet or over powering. The crust was crisp and flaky. I could go on, but just trust me and give this place a try!

I have been coming to LTPC for over twenty years. And, aside from price increases and some small tweaks to the menu, this place is as it has been since it opened in the 70s. For some, that might be a bad thing. For me (and the group of us who come here annually), that makes it like a can’t miss experience every time we are in SLT. If you want faux-rustic or upscale 'foodie' fare, drive further into town. You will find it and pay for it (I mean that in a couple of ways).
The place feels lived-in, in a good way. This isn’t a cookie-cutter chain, with décor that feels like it was tacked onto the wall when the mood arose (and not through some deliberate sort of planning). The front dining room is cramped. The bar is often packed. The back room is really the least interesting place to eat, as it feels like a room for groups and is decorated like it was an afterthought. On a hot day, the back patio is an excellent choice (esp. if the inside is busy). On a cold day? Grabbing a spot in the bar near the fireplace is an excellent choice. Servers have always been uniformly friendly, even when the place is busy.
The pizza? A solidly constructed version of the usual, with red sauce that has a slice spice to it and crust that is cracker-like. Depending on who does the folding, the meat or veggie options on a slice are often folded underneath the crust, which is a pleasant surprise. The salad bar? It feels like you are stepping into a time warp every time you walk up to it. The Italian pasta salad is hilariously old school and needs a good dose of s/p to ‘activate’ it. The various veggie selections are fresh and constantly refilled. It isn’t fancy. But who wants fancy when you are at a pizza place like this? There is a nice range of both non- and alcoholic drinking options. Can’t speak to non-pizza and salad options. But I have to assume they are good.
LTPC isn’t trying to reinvent the pizza peel. Thank goodness!!! Appreciate you staying the same. Recommended to anyone who is coming to SLT.
[If you are worried about some of the negative reviews, I urge you to reread them carefully and then apply the word ‘hyperbolic’ to most of them. Sure, mistakes happen. Sure, people have off days. But in many of the most egregiously over-the-top negative reviews one of two things are apparent: you could have asked and had the problem resolved and/or the problem resided with the reviewer and not with the establishment. Just saying.]

Dietary restrictions: The gluten free crust was delicious. They do not have a dedicated kitchen/surface though, so if cross contamination is an issue for you, I would not recommend.

Heard good things about their vegan pizza so went to try and was amazed. You can build your own pizza using vegan cheese and then various toppings. Huge pizza (ended up taking most of it home) and delicious flavours. Their pitchers of drinks were also a very reasonable price. Super friendly service from Matt, too.
Vegetarian options: Vegetarian pizzas and you can build your own pizza using dairy-free cheese to make it vegan.

I must have gone a bad day since there are so many good reviews. I get everyone has different tastes but this is one of the worst pizzas I’ve ever had including frozen store bought. The crust was like a cracker (not soft on any part ) and the sauce was awful. It tasted like the ingredientes were not fresh. It’s hard to mess up pizza this bad.
Some positives: staff were friendly and helpful, bar looked fun with good beers on tap and looked like a good place for families. Just don’t order the pizza.

It's a great place to eat pizza, the flavor and the ingredients are so great, the tomato sauce is delicious.
If I back again to Lake Tahoe I will be back to this pizza place.
