    Breakfast Al fresco
    Debbie N.

    This was the first time we ate at this Red Hut in Tahoe. I liked that we had an option of sitting outside, it was a lovely morning and we chose to sit outside at a picnic bench with an umbrella. Hubby ordered ham and cheese omelette-plenty of both so he was happy. I had crispy bacon, eggs, hash browns, and an english muffin. The meals are consistently tasty whenever we eat here, which is nice!

    Special board I ain't lion good food t-shirts and great tahoe swag.

    Such a great place. Feels like family at an authentic cafe dinner. Yummy breakfast and lunch fair always a must stop when in the area! Food is fresh tasty and fun. Got my coffee mug for Christmas 2025. Fast friendly staff. Greet yah with a big smile and check in often to see if you need anything

    Ambiance Vintage restaurant love it feels like going back into time. This reminds me of the places my grandmother would take me to. Counter seating my dad would love this place. Nice patio seating. Service Friendly, very attentive. Waffles Ok but comes with hot syrup. Rate 4 The Usual 2 eggs, hash browns, biscuits with sausage gravy. All I can say is wow. Sausage gravy perfect texture. All this for $9.99 who does that? Rate 10

    Rosti with jalapeño bacon and fried egg

    I've always been a big Red Hut fan, but have been disappointed by the Ski run Tahoe and Carson locations recently. I had the Rosti with a fried egg on top and jalapeño bacon and it tasted great like i remember it being back when i first started eating at red hut. I like the tiny old school diner feel of this particular location, feels like mostly locals compared to ski run which feels like 80% tourists. Very close to state line , walkable from the casinos when the weather is nice, probably 10-12 walk from Ballys. Try the Rosti!! It's like a loaded bake potato with cheese, bacon, sour cream, green onions and a fried egg on top, comfort food at its finest. I still have noticed some pretty dark hash browns being served up which was my main complaint last couple visits.... Golden brown =yummy Dark brown = bitter and not so yummy - more butter and oil on the hash browns might help ......

    We wanted to have a nice brunch in South Lake Tahoe and this place was great! It has a cozy diner vibe with all kinds of old ski decor lining the walls. They have a rich history which you can read all about on the back side of their menu! They don't take reservations but we came around 11am on a Saturday and were seated right away. We were close to the main entrance so it was a little cold from the outside door opening and closing so often. Our waitress forgot our drinks, so it took about 10-15 mins to get those which wasn't a big deal. I got coffee and my husband got hot tea. The coffee was refilled often and the tea came with several different flavor options. Our food came out pretty quickly! I got the Red Hut Rosti which was kind of like a breakfast version of a baked potato but with hashbrowns instead! The hashbrowns were crispy and I loved all the toppings, including an over easy egg I added as an extra side. My husband got the country fried steak, it was a big serving size and smothered in delicious gravy! We split a waffle with strawberries and whipped cream on top, we had to get one since they've used the same recipe for 30+ years! Unfortunately the bottom was a little bit burned, so it was probably more crispy than they usually are--it was even a little tough to cut. Overall, we still really enjoyed our experience here and had a great brunch before exploring more of South Lake!

    Being a shawty from the South, it's been a while since I've been to a classic American diner that didn't serve a nice brawl on the side ("a meal & a show" I would call it as I ordered my usual "All-Star special" from Waffle House). Am I saying that my experience here could have been more entertaining? Not really. It was simply classic! A quick order, a decent wait, and the rest was left to mastication and digestion before an eventful day of white water rafting on the other side of the lake. I can't remember our server's name but she was very sweet like my French toast and checked on our needs regularly. I think my partner was a little disappointed about his coffee options and the experience but I don't know what else he could have wanted from this. He ordered the omelet with hashbrowns and toast and coffee. I ordered French toast with eggs and bacon. It was so much French toast I took the rest to go but it was still good layer too!

    Red Hut Rosti with sausage and an over medium egg - yum!

    Read the history in the back of the menu. This is the original location and it's been around for decades - pretty cool and speaks to its reputation and quality of their product. The nuts and bolts: Food: 4/5 - we all enjoyed our food but wish it was served hotter, temperature wise (-1/2 star). And also -1/2 star for the sausage, which tasted/felt like the frozen "Heat and Serve" type (not sure if that's the case, but was my impression). A few more notes on the photos. Service 5/5 - I love that they checked back frequently for water and coffee refills , and the food was served pretty quickly. $$$ 3.5/5 - I found the prices kind of steep considering the "ambiance". It was up there with some of the "nicer" establishments in the area. My "Usual" was the best priced at $10 for a compete meal with 2 eggs, hash browns and 1 biscuit with gravy. Ambiance 3.5/5 - While I loved the cute history and keeping the first location/building open, I'd suggest a bit of maintenance (ladies restroom to start - stuff is peeling and falling apart)). Bottom line is it's worth a try and it's great to support local when possible. We'll try their other location if we return next year.

    Hot chocolate
    Katherine K.

    Came here on a Monday for a late breakfast around 11:30am, inside seating was all filled up but it is a small dining area, luckily they had some shaded outdoor seating. I ordered a hot chocolate that was topped with a mountain of whip cream and some sprinkles; and the chicken fried steak $19 came with hash browns, 2 eggs and toast but opted for a pancake to share with my little for an extra $2. Chicken fried steak was nice and tender, breaded perfectly and seasoned well. The pepper gravy that they smothered on top was yummy. Eggs ordered over easy were cooked perfectly, nice and runny. Husband got the Usual which came with a biscuit and gravy, eggs and hash browns for $10. Love this place, will definitely come back again.

    We had a great brunch here the other day. The service was friendly and food came quick. No wait, but Tahoe was very slow that weekend, so I imagine the wait can be long with the small space. The grilled ham and cheese sandwich was prob the best ever had. I had mine with sourdough and cheddar and a ton of fries. My husband enjoyed his country fried steak eggs and hash browns. He had a pancake instead of toast. We didn't think the pancake was particularly tasty unfortunately. Nice small diner with lots of lunch and breakfast choices.

    Avocado toast
    Dori N.

    First time here. The avocado toast was good. Service was good and friendly. This is the bigger location and it's near the ski area.

    Outdoor Seating

    The patty melt was delicious! Fries extra crispy! My lady had the fried egg sandwich and loved it.. waffle on the side was cooked perfectly. Pretty busy, so make sure you come early due to limited seating. Would definitely recommend 5/5

    the killer special~!
    Bookwerm T.

    Service and price was impeccable, as was the food! Felt like one of my old favorite Saline Michigan diners, and prices were great! WE came 2x and the second time the 9.99 special of 2 eggs hash browns and biscuit with gravy was a rock star choice AND deal! Sorry I do not have pictures of THIS food because we ate it up TOO FAST!

    A Hut it is, but what an amazing place! Cute little spot that's tucked away. Glad we found this place; I'll continue coming back every year we return to SLT. Super friendly waitstaff and absolutely delicious food! Their French toast with berries is some of the best I've had!

    See all
