“An excellent dinner. Ribs, ceviche, salads, and a burger, all well presented and tasty. Our server Chloe was attentive snd friendly, a real joy. In fact the entire staff, from the hostess to the chefs that helped bring out the food, wonderful all.“

“The food is a little pricey, but very good! I got the pastrami sandwich. The music doesn’t match the vibe of a tap house at all. Also the service method is fast food design. You order and pay and take a number. Overall would get takeout for the food, but not enjoy in house again.“

“We were able to get to Chambers Landing right before they closed for the season, and it was a perfect way to end our time in Lake Tahoe. You literally cannot beat the view here.

We shared the zucchini fries as an appetizer which were incredible. The ranch was better than the chipotle aioli. For entrees, my husband got the cheeseburger and fries while I got the fish and chips. The fries were perfectly crispy shoestring fries. I heard that the cheeseburger was delicious. My fish was really crispy and golden brown, I just got a few bites that weren't tender. I'm not sure if it was a cooking issue or just the particular piece of fish that made it hard to chew through.“

“Always love dining here! Cozy, nostalgic atmosphere and amazing food every time. Service is always top notch with attentive and pleasant staff. Great selection of quality spirits for cocktail lovers or just go neat, they have the right stuff.“

“Fresh Tex- Mex. Chips salsa a guacamole a must!“

“Gonzalo truly set the tone for an exceptional experience at the Living Room Lodge (LRL) at The Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe. Warm, friendly, and incredibly attentive, he made us feel genuinely cared for, from start to finish. His hospitality felt effortless and heartfelt — and the heavenly vanilla latte he crafted came with a smile that made it even more special. Gonzalo is a true gem and a shining example of Ritz-Carlton’s world-class service & hospitality.

We were seated in a beautiful spot with stunning views of the Northstar ski slopes on a bright, sunny day. The experience was elevated by sitting behind a subtle tinted glass that softened the harshness of the sun while still letting in all the light and scenery — the perfect balance. Surrounded by towering Sierra Nevada pines, the setting felt serene, cozy, and quintessentially Tahoe.

We started with a vanilla latte that was nothing short of magical — it truly felt like a warm embrace in a cup. Smooth, comforting, and crafted to perfection.

The meat burger was perfectly done — juicy, flavorful, and deeply satisfying. My son absolutely loved the chocolate and strawberry ice cream, which was a delightful treat.

Dessert was the grand finale: the salted caramel lotus with vanilla sponge cake, caramel glaze, and cacao nib streusel was an absolute masterpiece. Each bite delivered a beautiful harmony of textures, flavors & suspense; indulgent yet refined.

An unforgettable experience that blends breathtaking views, outstanding food, and truly genuine hospitality.“

“My husband and I both agree that the scallops dish we had here was by far the best we have ever had. Absolutely incredible. Our server Luis was wonderful - friendly and happy to answer any questions we had about the meal (including interrogating the chef for us on their technique for cooking the mushrooms).“
