Food was pretty good. A few vegetarian options. Nice setting with outdoor seating in the woods. The only problems were the temperature (cold and heaters were mostly off) and the smoke from the grill going directly into the dining area.

Always good, The employees are so nice. Very hard working manager keeping it real. Their food is always hot & fresh.

Cozy, great food and drink choices, surprisingly good for a hotel restaurant. Would definitely return.

They charged for take out containers… as guests at the resort and paying customers, I was actually shocked. Let alone $3.25 for three plastic containers? I have never encountered something this insane at a restaurant ever. Food was also overpriced and downright bad. If the restaurant is having to charge for takeout containers, they’ve got bigger problems. Just don’t eat here.

Everything about this place reminds me of a European ski chalet - the big open fire place, cozy red leather booth seats, lots of wood detail and touches like a plethora of coat hooks at the entrance for your ski wear.

The ambiance here is spot on - customer service is at its highest (Carlos, Lucas & Sophia - I'm looking at you!), and the vibes here are immaculate. Upon ordering, we were treated to a tasting of the different wine options to make sure we enjoyed what we ordered. Straight into apps - the French onion soup is not to be missed - rich in flavor with a perfect cheese crust on it. Chefs kiss to that.
Also, to pop back to wine - good lord, the prices for bottles here are exceptional (most expensive was $60 or so)

The dinner was delectable - I enjoyed the trout with the curry sauce and rock shrimp & my partner had the brick chicken and enjoyed every last bite.

So the restaurant officially closes at 9 but we were invited by the staff to order an additional bottle of wine and enjoy the fire until we felt we wanted to head back to our unit - such exceptional customer service.

Additionally, there's a piano in the space that folks are invited to play - we were privileged to enjoy an 8 year old patron playing some exceptional music as well as staff coming in late to play a bit of a diddy - such a lovely time

A hidden gem of Tahoe City and I'd highly recommend a visit here!

Delicious food. I had the spicy Italian pizza. Best I've had in a while. They had a piano by a fireplace and a young man played several songs. It was a magical experience. The waiter also sassed my sister in law playfully, which I enjoyed.

Great service from Carlos. As the manager he’s passionate about what they’re serving and the burger and wine that we had were amazing. Will definitely come back when in the area again.

We didn’t even eat. We walked in and walked out. There was not a single other diner, one staff person and the front desk guy laughed when we said we were looking for the restaurant because the signage is so bad. The lights were off even though it was 6pm. No idea what was going on but I would not return simply because the vibes were so bad.

Nice casual restaurant. Friendly service and excellent food. The Ahi appetizer in a cone is a must. The trout was fresh and prepared with a curry sauce ane fresh tomatoes. Th Schnitzel is a favorite. Wine is a deal here with the glass/bottle prices being very reasonable. We ate outside on the deck this time but the inside is cozy. It's great to have a place in Tahoe City with a variety of good meal choices, friendly service, fair prices and where you can also make a reservation!

Found Cedar House Pub when researching restaurants with vegan options in the area and was not disappointed. Had a delicious vegan steak (with multiple side options of potatoes, veggies, spatzle salad) and a gazpacho. Drinks were also delicious and non vegan family were happy with their trout dish as well. Chef and server (Lukas) were helpful and attentive and we loved sitting on the patio with our dogs. Will definitely come back!

A really quaint spot in summer and winter. Cozy fireplace in winter, lovely outside deck in summer. Beautiful flowers. Feels like you’re at a Swiss lodge.
Service is very friendly and food is yummy. An overall sweet spot.

Food was fantastic! That trout, though. We also got the steak which was delicious. Service was a titch slow and could've been more attentive but that wasn't major. Would definitely eat there again.

Food was excellent. Bartender was personable and helpful. Our waiter seemed busy with a larger table ave wasn't very responsive. Pretty atmosphere surrounded in a wooded area.
