We were familiar with the Chart House restaurants from dining in Newport Beach, Rancho Mirage, Hawaii, and Mammoth Lakes. We made the reservation that day on the chair lift at Heavenly. We arrived 15 minutes ahead of reservation, and they seated us immediately at a nice 6 top near the wood burning fireplace that was decorated with holiday decor. We started with a champagne toast of "White Star" and the "Lobster Spring Rolls", followed with a recommended bottle of the Fransciscan Pinot Noir. Specials were described and main courses were recommended down the smallest details. Salads were prepared or you had a choice of the large salad bar which is not your typical salad bar: it included caviar, fresh fruit, and made to order fresh Caesar salad. Dinner party ordered the Snapper, Mahi Mahi, Prime Rib, Filet, and Lobster Tail. All meals were of very high quality and excellent. The dinners followed with after dinner drinks and the world famous "Lava Cake" that takes 30 minutes to prepare. No wait time here since they started the dessert after we ordered our main course. Server was excellent and the experience was memorable. Enjoy!

Try to get there for the sunset with a beautiful view over the lake; we enjoyed a fresh salmon dinner (crusted) and chardonnay. Very romantic--we were there for our anniversary.

It is a Charthouse. The food is excellent, the view is excellent. Really excellent fine dining.

Lake Tahoe is not known for its seafood, so if you would like decent seafood the Charthouse is the place.

First, I have to qualify the general classification above, 'fine dining.' The Chart House in Stateline Nev. is a quality place. It's not fine dining like a top of the line, dress up, real special occasion restaurant. It's a national chain so you may already be familiar with it but I consider it a step up from most of the restaurants around Tahoe. The food is good, but I suggest it for the view of the Lake at sundown. Very scenic, up in the hills a bit, with pine trees framing the lake below.

My husband proposed to me here. What a romantic place this is. It has an outstanding view of the lake. It's up on a hill. The food is wonderful. I believe we had steaks. I remember delicious salad and wonderful melt in your mouth bread. The service was great and the food was delicious. It has floor to ceiling windows on the lake side of the restaurant.
