Red Hut Waffle Shop, South Lake Tahoe

On Thursday Dec. 22, 2011 our family visited this restaurant as a suggestion of an employee of the Chamber of Commerce. There were 9 of us for lunch and we were VERY dissapointed. The food was "o.k.", no silverware was provided and we had to ask several times before receiving any. A chocolate ice cream soda was ordered and a chocolate soda was received. When the server was asked about the ice cream the drink came back with one tiny scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side of the glass, the price for this ice cream soda was not justified for what was received. The children all ordered sundaes at the end of the meal and again, no spoons. We asked for spoons and the ice cream was melting before any were delivered to our table. Our family will not be returning to this restaurant, ever! Oh, there was only one other table of customers while we were there so the staff was NOT busy!!!!!!

A place for Good breakfast Food. Staff is a bit slow and unprofessional. RibChamp!

This is one of the old time South Lake places and you should make a point of stopping through. I always have the bacon and banana waffle and am never disappointed.

Lake Tahoe is one of the most beautiful places in the world, but all I can remember about my visit is the delicious food and friendly service of Red Hut! I can't wait to go back!

There is always a wait on the weekend mornings, but could you blame them? They have some of the best breakfast in town. Really good prices and very family oriented. They open up very in the wee hours, so for all of those early risers make sure to stop in.

This is the only place to go -- especially for breakfast!! You might have to wait a few minutes for seating in this delightful, wonderful, small, busy restaurant -- but it is worth the wait!! The food is plentiful, delicious, and inexpensive in comparison to the proportions. The staff is a hustling-bustling smiling friendly lot with a polished expertise providing you an unhurried dining experience despite the packed tables and counter seats! Make it a MUST on your eating list of places to check out. Once you have been there - you'll be back again, and again -- like we were. Lori and Terry (Labor Day Weekend 2008)

I always make sure to have at least one breakfast here whenever I visit Lake Tahoe. he food it great and the service friendly. Be warned! You may have to wait for a table ( but not for long). And it is well worth the short wait. The Breakfasts fill you up as do their 1/3 lb. and 1/2 lb. burgers. M-mmmmmm! Their Waffles served with fresh fruit are Outstanding! Not much parking in front, but there's more in the rear. One Caveat... Take CASH. They don't take checks or credit cards. Tell Them CinemaBill Sent Ya!

When traveling along Highway 50 looking for a place to eat the Red Hut Waffle Shop called out to us as the parking lot was full and it looked like a local favorite. We weren't dissapointed. The cafe appears much like it did in 1959 when it was founded and the food was delicious. The service was fast and friendly for a crowded restaurant. The breakfasts are classic fare with daily specials, on our visit it was waffles with fresh fruit toppings. The burgers looked delicious as well as we watched them come out of the kitchen. Great food, great atmosphere.

Great little tiny restaurant on Kingsbury Grade near Heavenly Resort. The burgers are huge and come with a large mound of fries! SOOOO yummy. It is a small building though, so large groups probably should call ahead.
