    We always make it a point to go to Izabella at least one night on our Lake Tahoe weekends. Tonight, The chicken Saltimbaca with the house salad. It was excellent. The chicken was cooked to perfection tender and juicy breast meat, topped with a red wine reduction sauce, Prosciutto and a soft cheese. Served with fresh veggies and a l9vely creamy risotto. The house salad with apple pear is also delicious. All reasonably priced and served by excellent wait staff.

    This is one of the best Italian restaurants in the South Tahoe area bar-none. I have been coming here for years and have enjoyed many exquisite meals here. Our server, Ian, did a fantastic job taking care of our table and our ordered food came out perfect. I had the Seafood fettuccine which was too big & rich to eat in one sitting but oh so delicious! My wife ordered her usual Chicken Marsala over garlic mashers. Our friends enjoyed the Mediterranean Sea Scallops and Spinach Pasta Mediterranean. The atmosphere is elegant and warm and the lighting is perfect to enjoy an intimate experience while dining. Definitely make reservations…! They do accept walk-ins, but you may have to wait a long time…! This place is popular!

    We’ve made The Loft our go-to when going to a show or event in South Lake since “discovering” it 4 years ago. The service is always spot on - helpful in providing recommendations, friendly, and attentive without being clingy. They manage the timing and delivery of multiple plates extremely well. If attending the show (they always ask), they also coordinate the timing of your meal to ensure your transition from dinner to show is seamless. We always feel comfortable and relaxed whether doing a tapas dinner, or just relaxing with an appetizer and drink at one of their indoor fire tables. The ambiance is warm/comfortable/friendly and intimate at the same time. The Tapas menu is creative, varied, and the food is always very well done and presented. Their drink menu is well crafted and just as well executed. We’ve never had a bad experience at The Loft and expect to keep going back regularly.
