Review Local's Brunch Cafe - South Lake Tahoe

Nichole Hill

If you are looking for a really good dinner style cozy place to have breakfast this is the spot. Honestly overall some of the best food we had in South Lake Tahoe over this last weekend for our honeymoon. We had a few other not so great experiences and the fact that this quaint little diner be out some of the bigger food experiences is saying a lot. The staff is friendly the atmosphere is cozy and has a cute ski aesthetic inside. Seriously can't say enough about how good the food was packed with flavor and phenomenal if you happen to be going up this fall or into the winter if they still have their pumpkin waffles on the menu you have to get it it was huge and so good. Their other breakfast tables are great eggs or perfectly they're hash browns are just crispy enough and the sausage is amazing. We will not be going anywhere else for breakfast when we go into town in South Lake anymore.

Quaint little cafe/diner close to the harbor. I ordered their pumpkin pancakes as a breakfast combo and they were fluffy and delicious! Food was hot and came out fast. Service was extremely friendly!

We've always wanted to try this place every time we are in Tahoe but, the wait is usually really long. Today we were fortunate that the wait was only 35-40min. The food was amazing. The pancakes are spectacular and very fluffy. Would definitely come back again.

Taser Twolittle needed a ride up to South Shore so he could make good with his business associate Cleaster Calmwater, they own the Heap Big Trading Post just outside the reservation, so I volunteered. It seems Taser left Cleaster in the dark about a transaction that netted the company a years worth of revenue, I didn't need to know anymore so I told alls fine as long as we eat at The Red Hut Cafe! They're about the best place for real homemade food in the area. Every thing on the menu is worthy of a two hour drive. 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆

We enjoyed our breakfast. They were pretty busy but we snagged a spot at the bar. There was a line out the door as we left. Our server was pleasant and had good suggestions.

I discovered this cute little restaurant while visiting Tahoe. It’s tiny and cozy, but has a great breakfast vibe. Stopped here to have breakfast before the drive home and I’m glad we did. I got the Don’s special with two pancakes, scrambled eggs with cheese and crispy bacon. Besides the eggs having way too much cheese, everything was pretty tasty I must say. We came here during the week, and it was still pretty crowded. So make sure that you aren’t starving because most likely there will be a small wait. It’s a small location, but they move pretty quickly. And we didn’t end up waiting very long at all. I will definitely come back again next time I am in the area.

Pumpkin pancakes were the best! We sat at the counter, and although our server was good, the kitchen staff/cooks made sure we liked our food. I greatly appreciated their service and interaction.

Great place, good food, service was mid but it is Tahoe so it’s almost expected.

Since we were going back home, we decided to have breakfast here. Like any breakfast/brunch place this place was busy even on a weekday. We gave our name and waited for twenty minutes and then got seated inside. They have a pretty good menu with all day breakfast served. We ordered coffee, apple and orange juices to drink. To eat we ordered a French toast special which comes with a choice of bacon or sausage and an egg along with six French toast, Rostii , Strawberry waffle and Mountain omelette. Indeed for an American breakfast, you will never go hungry because they always serve a big portion. The lady who took our order was pretty experienced in every way as for each order she asked for what side orders of any, or how do you want your egg to be done etc. The food came to our table in no time and the syrup, marmalade, sugar everything was on the table served which she called out. Everything was so perfectly done and called out that all we had to do was eat. Everyone enjoyed their first day of the meal and as I said big portions, so we did pack our leftovers in a box. The service is excellent even though they are busy. The staff is very polite and helpful. This place has a lot of merchandise with the restaurant name, such as coffee mugs, t-shirts, caps, soft toys etc. They have a separate chai place where you can order chai while you're waiting. The overall experience is awesome and yes, you must visit here if you're around this place. I love to support the local businesses.

I’ve been here tons of times and have always been satisfied. I was surprised when I came in this week that there was no wait for breakfast. This is by far the most popular breakfast spot in the area and usually has a wait. The food came out quick and was delicious. Our server was very friendly and attentive. This is a must try breakfast spot if you’re ever in the area. PS. They serve breakfast all day! So make it happen and you won’t regret it!

Very good place to get breakfast. The food was pretty good (a little under seasoned for me but I love lots of flavor). and very good size portions. Service was great coffee kept coming and it was fresh.

Oh my goodness. This place serves some amazing breakfast at a great price. I got the Double Diamond burger and the bacon and cheese omelette. The size was huge and so flavorful. I fed a party of 9 thoroughly and they loved it. To top it off our waitress was AMAZING and KIND. She made it really enjoyable. Come here.

Delicious food, great service (thanks for taking care of us Ron!) Oatmeal was hearty and had some Delicious add-in options, my oldest loved that he could eat "lunch for breakfast" since he doesn't like a lot of breakfast foods. He loved the burger, said it was one of the best he's had.

Today I have found my paradise! I had the best, most home cooked tasting meal in a very long time. The service was amazing! Our gal, awesome, you ask and you shall receive, with a laugh! We were eating in less than 8 minutes! Did I mention the coffee? The taste was superb! I definitely recommend eating here. I can't wait to return for another meal.

Good value. Enjoy our breakfast. Yum!

Whitney Martins

Incredible place! Tomorrow will be our third time in a row for breakfast. The food is great! Big portions. Excelente customer service! We had a toddler, and they made sure we were all set throughout the entire meal. The prices are cheaper than expected. They accommodate larger parties faster than most restaurants. We were 6 adults and a toddler, didnt even wait 10 minutes. A must go!

I was wondering why this place is called Heavenly Village, until I saw it. Then we had the breakfast and it was the icing on the cake. All of us (party of 4) thoroughly enjoyed our food and drinks. The staff is super friendly and the cleanliness was superb. Definitely would HIGHLY recommend.

Great diner food at a reasonable price!! Terrific breakfast and so much that we had to take half of it to go. My husband's omelet was perfect, my scrambled "dry" (my request) eggs were just right. Our servings of hash browns were huge and the bacon was the best I've had in some time. The rye toast and butter topped it off. IF we had discovered The Red Hut Café sooner than our last day, we would have eaten breakfast there every day - and tried the lunch menu, too.
