The Boathouse is located at the Tahoe Beach Retreat hotel in South Lake Tahoe and offers a unique dining experience over the waters of Lake Tahoe. The restaurant is only open during the summer, but you can enjoy lunch or dinner on a pier with no walls to separate you from nature.
The Boathouse offers casual dining and cocktails and has become a local favorite. The menu includes seasonal and fresh creations by Chef Brian Sunkamaitis and his team. Lunch items include Baked Brie ($13) with grapes and apples, New England Clam Chowder ($7/$10), the Boathouse Burger ($13) served on a brioche bun, and the Fish Tacos ($13) with Mahi-Mahi. For dinner enjoy cocktails or California wines with Pan Seared Scallops ($18) or the fresh fish of the day.
