“It’s a no for us. We had our wedding reception here at the Tavern and while the food and drinks were amazing, the way we were treated by management was awful. (Serving staff was wonderful!). We started working with Wendy (owner/manager I'm assuming) months before the wedding. She had to make it known from the beginning that she was doing us a favor by letting us come here on a Saturday night. We paid her $680 for a ton of food, that she was trying to say wouldn't be enough for 40ish people (it was, we had leftovers), and everyone bought their own drinks (39 open tabs they got from us that night). All in all, they got a pretty decent chunk of money from us and our group. When my party got to the tavern, they were told we had an hour and a half (this would put us at 6:30pm) before they would be asking us to leave. This was a huge shock, as Wendy never mentioned a time limit for our event. We were always under the impression that we could stay there as long as we want, as long as our party was buying drinks! Later in the night, we were told that we had to leave by 7 because they had another wedding party coming. This was also never mentioned to us during the planning. So they started bussing our tables while people were still sitting down and made everyone close out their tabs and leave the Tavern. Well we ended up hanging out there until 8:30pm and there was no other party that showed up. It was completely empty up until the time that my groom and I left, and they closed at 10pm. Bummer for them that they missed out on all the extra money from that second wedding party. On top of that, the chef came out to me while we were about to start cutting the cake and asked if we would like him to cut it for us. He offered so nicely, we said yes please and thank you and he did a a wonderful job. Then on our way out, they chased us down telling us that we had to pay for the cake cutting that was offered to us. And on top of all of that, they were trying to charge us $100 for "corkage fees", when there were never any bottles opened by us. I didn't get the manager's name that brought us the extra $150 bill for cake cutting and corkage but he was flat rude. After arguing with my husband and I, and asking the waiter how many bottles he saw (zero open), he did take off the over $100 for corkage, as he should have. Our waiter who took care of us all night, Jake, was literally amazing. He had our back that night, he helped us figure out all the mess that the Tavern caused and he got us back to feeling good about our wedding night. Honestly, if we could have invited Jake to the after party, we would have. Oh and Wendy was nowhere to be found during this whole thing. All this to say, don't expect any sort of decent service from management and don't try to have an event here. Management is rude, they act like they don't want you there, and they push business out the door. At least you can have a nice pizza tho.“

“Stayed over the weekend for the first time. The property was breathtaking! Food was very yummy. I had a facial with Gina and she was a gem of a human. SAL the manager was so awesome at resolving our late check-in dilemma as our room wasn’t already. I live in Reno and I will definitely be back! I don’t think I’ve ever felt that relaxed in years“

“I just got back from Italy and their pizza is better than pizza From Naples. Tiffany such a sweet person, very engaging …If you want the best pizza you’ve ever had in your life you have to try this place The crust is so airy. And chewy It’s hard to explain, but you’ll never go anywhere else for pizza if you do. I wish I had one in Fremont where I live. Maybe one day till then, I will keep coming to Tahoe.“

“Found by chance as we were driving by. Love love loved it!!!! Great atmosphere, food and latte and bonus live music 💕 outside on their beautiful patio area. Highly recommend!“

“We had a wonderful time!! We were there the first week of October and had wonderful service and great environment with outdoor seating next to a fire. We had the old fashioned, Basil Aviation Drink (forgot the name), and espresso martini, and Brussels sprouts. Everything was great!! We usually are very picky about our cocktails and these were well balanced. We would definitely recommend to anyone in the area! They were the best drinks we had during our stay.“

“My husband and I *landed* at The Landing on the last week of May 2025, out of complete happenstance! We started out our honeymoon at The Post Marc Hotel, after seeing 4-5 rooms, each in worse condition than the last, we kindly requested a refund and left. We had no idea what to do, our honeymoon was off to a rocky start, but little did we know The Landing had us covered! We saw they had good reviews and decided to walk inside and see what it was like! We were immediately greeted by incredibly warm and outgoing staff members Charles and Serafina! They listened to our story, empathized with us, and were able to get us an amazing deal on a room! They let us walk around and take a look at it before we purchased which was much appreciated and helped in our decision making! And Charles even made sure we had a complimentary bottle of Chardonnay to “help start the honeymoon out right”, I mean what a sweetheart, so thoughtful and kind! Charles and Serafina truly made MAGIC happen for us and we could not be more grateful to them. They are the reason we had a wonderful honeymoon and we are just so thankful. After getting us situated in a fabulous room with: heated floors, heated toilet seats, jet tub, dual shower, fireplace and patio complete with mountain & lake views, we were told all about, all the perks of staying at The Landing! They have a shuttle that can take you or pick up anywhere in the local area, they had a lovely heated pool and spacious jetted spa, and we were given free beach passes to a private section of the beach! Everything was wonderful! Stephanie & Mel at the front desk checked on us each morning to see how our stay was going! From the quick and attentive housekeeping, to Kevin the wonderful conversationalist bell hop & shuttle driver, to server Aaron’s 5 star room service from Jimmy’s restaurant, even down to the little coffee kiosk in the lobby loving filled with hot chocolates, apple ciders and toppings—everything was perfect!!! And everyone made sure our experience was top notch, the hospitality was unmatched! We had such a nice time that now we won’t stay anywhere else in Tahoe, this is our new go to spot! If you have absolutely any hesitation about booking with The Landing—DON’T! When you’re at The Landing, you are truly in safe hands, with a warm and attentive staff that genuinely cares about your time there. Thank you to everyone at The Landing for providing the most incredible honeymoon experience! We will definitely be back! We were so thrilled with our stay we’re looking at coming back in November 2025 for my birthday! In a word—PHENOMENAL. 15/10“

“Great service and food……………“

“They charged us 15.00 for a plain margarita and 15.00 for a alacart chilli Reno common man what a rip off we are locals but not anymore here .“

“I have played here with several different bands this summer, its an amazing vibe with a perfect beachside area and view of the lake w direct access to get in the water. super friendly and helpful staff, and good drink selection. their french fries are really good! definitely would recommend swinging by for at least a drink if youre visiting tahoe.“

“The outdoor seating area is great. The food was very good. We had a Philly Cheesesteak sandwich, fried shrimp, and fish & chips, as well as Margaritas and craft beers. Our waiter left a lot to be desired. He said he was too busy to help put the umbrella up, we had to get forks, salt & pepper, and hot sauce from the busboy, and we had to go to the bar ourselves to order our second drinks. However, the management, busboy, and bartender were friendly and helpful. We would definitely go back. Note that it's valet parking only, so walk if you can.“
