    Simply amazing! We had the best Christmas dinner at Maggie’s. The warm and intimate space was cosy, cocktails were delicious and the food was the best we have had in a whole US holiday so far.

    Christmas dinner. Small place with cozy atmosphere. Food was very good. You could tell the chief take pride in his work. A little cramped but that did not affect the experience. I would recommend when in S Lake Tahoe

    Food is amazing and the service is a warm moment in the Tahoe air. Off the beaten path but worth the effort.

    We came for a birthday dinner on a Thursday evening. I had the short rib and he had the steak. It was delicious! We also shared the grilled Caesar salad which was outstanding. The ambience was super cozy and our waiter was helpful and attentive. We’ll be back for sure.
