Amazing spot here! I got “The Usual” which was 2 eggs any way (scrambled with cheddar cheese and green chiles for me), hashbrowns, and a biscuit with gravy. They don’t skimp you on the portions and toppings in the eggs. This plate was $9.99, talk about great value! The coffee shop connected to this had a amazing coffee as well!

I ordered full stack banana pancakes, they were delicious and fluffy with a generous portion of bananas. The cafe has cute vintage decorations.

Definitely recommend eating here. We ate here as well as Heidi’s. Heidi’s is overrated looks great from the street, but definitely not good food. This red hot Café has great food great service and great atmosphere. Highly recommend eating here over other places in this area.

Great food and wonderful service. Everyone we encountered was friendly and went over and beyond to be helpful. The food was good- we had omelettes, handiness hash browns, and toast. Delicious. Highly recommend. Sorry for the photo of the half eaten breakfast. I was hungry I guess!

What a find ... Even though everyone else has known about it for 50 years! 🤣 Had a great brisk walk here from the Golden Nugget - will probably have to STROLL back after this generous meal. Great ambience, bright with big windows with a view of the mountains and marina. No wait on a July Monday morning at 8:30.

People here are warm as they welcome you. Food and service here are awesome. We stayed for almost a week at lake Tahoe and this is by far the best restaurant we had for breakfast.

We always enjoy eating at the Red Hut when we come to So. Lk Tahoe! It was a Saturday at noon, so we expected to have to wait a bit. About 15-20 minutes didn't seem long as we browsed through the fun items for sale in the gift shop area. Service was friendly and food came pretty promptly after we decided from their many selections what to order. They have a large menu plus daily specials. The avocado and cheese (pepper jack was chosen, and nice pepper flavor!) omelet was huge and the side of hashbrowns nice and crunchy for contrast. On what I think it was called 'Dan's Special'?, the two pancakes were very large and fluffy, and tucked underneath were the bacon and eggs! An extra plate was provided so you could keep your proteins separate from the pancake syrup with the pancake! ;-) Classic eggs and sausage with hashbrowns was very good, and the Ortega chili cheese burger was super delicious. Onion rings were chosen instead of French fries, and they were some of the best I've had: just the right amount of coating, hot and crispy. We all agreed the coffee was GOOD! It's sad this place is no longer open for dinner--they used to have great specials (I think that changed since the Covid Pandemic). Get there before closing time, which I think is now 2pm.

Flew in from Las Vegas to Reno with Lake Tahoe as my destination and when I arrived at my resort I asked the locals what do they recommend to go for breakfast. I was immediately told The Red Hut Cafe. The following morning my family and I walked across the street to The Red Hut and we were not disappointed. The atmosphere was cozy and pleasant, the service was excellent and the food was beyond words 🤤. I am definitely recommending this place to anyone who comes to South Lake Tahoe. I ordered the house special the Country Scram 😋 my kid had the strawberry banana pancakes and my wife had the waffle plate we were impressed. Try there food out you’ll love it .

The atmosphere was fun with all of the winter sports memorabilia and history. Lots of food choices and everything we ordered was excellent!

We went here for a family breakfast. It was well worth the 40 minute wait. Service was fast and friendly.

We went here for breakfast and already had a long line before our side. Luckily upon having the counter bar side available, we took that side so that we don’t have to wait for another long time. Eggs Benedict 19.50 Omelette with Ham and Cheese 18.00 Coffee 6. 50 Overall with Tips $57.41 We thought the host of the cafe was attentive and friendly alongside Francis - she’s a very warm, attentive, and loving lady who also recommended us to try their special Eggs Benedict. The Waitress took our order for us starting with coffee, Eggs Benedict, and Omelette with Ham and Cheese. Each meal served with hash browns, and mine came with an English muffin too. We waited probably around 10-12mins, the Eggs Benedict came a bit later but not that much different from a wait. What we loved about their breakfast, both weren’t too overpowering with flavours. And that we can simply add condiments when we want to. The only downside was the coffee no kick of strong, bold and good flavour and aroma from the coffee - we felt just drinking flavoured drink. Also the ambience which can be a bit noisy around, especially, we came during the peak hours. We want to give compliments to the staff, the cooks, and the overall service. We’re very pleased with the food. And special mention to Francis, her enthusiasm and energetic presence added value to the Red Hut Cafe. Happy to come back and recommend 🤗

The wait is long but for good reason. The older Host is so fun when she calls out the waiting patrons. Once sat we were warmly greeted. Food came out quick. The biscuit and gravy is heavenly, the country fried steak was delicious, the pancakes were good just too much of a flour taste . Overall the food tastes really fresh. I would definitely come back if I’m in town.

During our four day stay in South Lake Tahoe, we visited two different Red Hut locations. This was the first we went to, and I have to say the service was very good. Everyone was friendly, our server was on top of our drinks and any requests we made. Food came out lightning quick despite a mostly full dining room. Food quality was good, and the price was fair. We weren't rushed at all by the server, but from checking in with the host to eating, paying and leaving, the whole process took like 40 minutes. Super efficient and appreciated. I'll say of the two locations we went to, this one was nice in that just beyond the windows you could see the lake and marina. I obviously would come back, I mean two days after eating here we ate at another of their locations.

Good normal breakfast spot no wow factor but would go here again bacon was crispy and food came out fast Saturday morning wasn't packed good service sorry missed a full menu but they have most ever…

Large portions for breakfast and food comes out quickly. The staff did a great job. Always a wait but doesn't take long.

This place is great. It's like an old diner. It was clean and the portions are big. We spent $23- for 2 on breakfast and couldn't eat all our food. The wait is long but worth it. Staff is friendly …

Very good breakfast! If you’re from the south, the biscuit and gravy are like home! The Usual was very reasonable at $10. service was good.

Friendly staff, good breakfast, a little expensive for two, $35.00 with tip. Stopped there because it was on our way to another destination

Food was good for what it was, it was exactly what it should be :) We were there for Labor Day 😬 super busy!! sat us outside in the sun… their umbrellas do not tilt so it didn’t help that they had umbrellas it was very hot! We asked to be moved and they were able to accommodate us :) waited way too long for service. Overall The service was okay :( food was good not outstanding. As For pricing is pretty fair but the chicken and waffle I though it need it a little love $16 for 2 pieces of chicken tenders and one waffle was not enough for my 11 year old! I wish they were more mindful about the seating and long wait for service but maybe next time will be better 🥰 this location was next to a church!

I know this is a South Lake Tahoe classic, so I wanted to love it — but it just didn’t quite hit all the marks I was hoping for. The menu is all-American diner fare, and while the ingredients were typical for a greasy spoon, it tasted less like it was “made with love” and more like the kitchen was pushing quantity over quality. Granted, we were at the tail end of a long wait from the mid-morning rush, so it’s possible their day had been really busy. The over-medium eggs and hashbrowns were great, and there was plenty of ketchup and hot sauce on the table. The pancake was fine, but it was a bit disappointing to pay extra for bananas just for them to be on top, and not cooked inside, the pancake — had we known it was a topping and not a core ingredient, we would have opted for something else. The country fried steak got was not bad, though the gravy was very mild on flavor. I was hoping for something with that homemade touch, but it felt more like food I’d be eating at any number of diners. To be honest, we saw some plates of french toast at the order counter as we were wrapping up, and I snagged a picture because they looked delicious. If I were to go back to Red Hut, I’d be more willing to gamble on the French toast than have a repeat. Ultimately though, brunch spots are limited in South Lake Tahoe, so sometimes good enough is still good. I’d be willing to try again if a long-time loyal fan showed me the ropes, otherwise I’ll likely try somewhere new next time.

For an storied staple of the area, this was not a good experience. The service was slow, food arrived cold (the butter wouldn't melt) pancakes and waffle we dense and rubbery. The only redeeming part was tbe jalapeño bacon, that was delicious! Not likely to visit again next time im in town.
