Restaurants near Caples Lake Maintenance Station

We booked a reservation for 2 just 4 days out for a sunset timed Thankgiving dinner. I was really surprised to get in just when we wanted so we could see the sunset over Lake Tahoe. We’ve had really mixed experiences eating out on a holiday and lots of times the meals are just OK and pricey for what you get. But I’m happy to report the EVERYTHING about our dinner was wonderful! We were seated at a window table with a view of the lake and setting sun. Our server Tyler greeted us quickly and took out drink order. He suggested the Boozy Peach Lemonade Cocktail that we both enjoyed. We both selected the pre-fix Thanksgiving Dinner that was amazing! Great seasonal salad, a HUGE plate of turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes (all with plenty of gravy) cranberry sauce, baby carrots, yams, acorn squash, and bread & butter. It was all followed by your choice of pumpkin pie or pecan pie with whipped cream…both were perfect. All during dinner Tyler was prompt, there when we wanted him and his table assistant was as well. Always right on the mark delivering bread & butter, refilling water, or fetching our plates when we were done. It was all so delightful AND to make it even better, we left with enough leftovers for both of us to have another full dinner. Couldn’t have been better!

Thanksgiving courses were delightful & wine selections elegantly paired. Spectacular lounge decorated with enchantment holiday * festival of lights ~

This restaurant was leaps and bounds above the rest!! The hospitality was 10 stars. The food 10 stars, the service 10 stars. We ordered all the appetizers and each one was fantastic. My husband especially love the Smashburger. Thank you for an amazing experience. We will be back.

Since it was our first time my daughter and I ordered more than we needed. We started off with the wagyu meatballs and the lobster risotto. Both were amazing. Most restaurants have 1-2 meat balls but this was a plate of meatballs, small but very tasty. The risotto was as good as expected from this restaurant. My daughter ordered the Jidori chicken and she loved it. Large portion and she even ate the kale that was with it. I had the filet cooked medium and it was spot on. So tender that as I cut into it it wanted to fall apart. We ordered the baked Mac and cheese, which was forgotten but arrived mid meal. It is a must try. Sean was our server and very detailed on each item we asked about. We plan to visit another HK sometime soon.

GREAT spot in an unexpected location. Bonus: Great cocktails and music... and the food was delicious. It's cozy so we made friends with all the other diners.
