    I was looking into places to eat for our trip to South Lake Tahoe and glad I chose Kalani's. Our server Curtis was great and loves his job. He mad great recommendations. I had the Chilean Seabass for my entree and it was killer. A top entrees for me. The Ahi appetizer with added Jalepeno and Avocado was great. I also had the Jalepeno Margarita which was good along with a Lychee Martini. Great meal

    Elena was a great waitress even after my husband made a bad joke 😂. The food was on point as usual. It was my 7th visit and they are consistent every time.

    Kalaniʻs is our go to restaurant for special occassions in the South Lake Tahoe region. Service is always top notch and attentive. As a chef, itʻs always a treat to have someone else prepare a meal with bountiful flavors and meticulously presented.

    Alec was our server...best of the best! What a delightful time! Both my wife and I had the ribeye steaks and boy were they exceptional. They came out hot off the grill...medium rare...very good. We definitely will return! Great restaurant and server!
