"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 🤗"

"While visiting Lake Tahoe for the first time, we had lunch at the Red Hut Cafe. This was my first meal at a restaurant in 2026. It reminds me of an old school diner with the docore. I had the tomato bisque and grilled cheese sandwich and it was so good. Our waitress was fantastic, and very friendly. This is a great place to come for breakfast or lunch when you are in South Lake Tahoe."

"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."

"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!"

"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."
