The Lake House Restaurant

Freedom tastes so good here! Our whole family is able to dine! They don’t tout that their menu is 99% GF but it IS! Try the calamari and lobster chowder! The staff, for years, have been knowledgeable. I heard the founder has celiac and even when the business changed hands the menu and cooks did not change. I leave feeling incredibly happy. The sparkling rose from Willamette Valley helps.

The food was amazing, our server was incredibly knowledgeable. Almost everything was gluten free, though they still put a note on the order to make sure the kitchen was extra careful. It's the first restaurant I've been able to order dessert at since being diagnosed and the ENTIRE dessert menu was gluten free. Not only did I feel safe, the food was incredibly good.

Beautiful restaurant and I was especially thrilled that everything on their menu (except the bread and croutons) are gluten free. I have a severe wheat allergy and was able to enjoy fried calamari!! The risotto and main dishes were delicious. Service, ambience, and food all superb. We’ll be back!

Most of their menu is gluten free. They also can substitute gluten free bread for a charge. Our server, Clay was very knowledgeable about gluten. They also have gluten free desserts. No gluten free menu though. Food was excellent.

Amazing GF dining experience. The food is spectacular and almost entirely gluten free. Best dinner in Tahoe! Service was excellent. Our son with severe gluten allergies ate calamari, chowder, bread, salad, and filet mignon.

This restaurant is amazing! Almost everything is gluten free except a few items but even those can be swapped for gf alternatives. My husband is celiac and they were so accommodating. The food was delicious, we loved everything and the atmosphere was wonderful.

Favorite place in Tahoe. Food was amazing

Excellent service and the food was amazing! Pretty much everything is gluten free except the breads, croutons and one dessert! Had the filet mignon, Caesar salad without croutons, and added scallops and had the death by chocolate dessert! All was great, my husband and I shared and just paid the plate split fee which got us both a large portion of potatos and asparagus on the side for each. Would definitely go here again when in town!

We have been going here for special nights out since they opened, the service is great and I have never had my food contaminated. The death by chocolate is Amazing!

We just left and it was AWESOME. I have been gluten free for 4 years and I finally had a crab cake!! The service was also amazing! The owner was over several times to help us. When we came in we were greeted by the owners daughter - a fourth grader who was so mature and helpful! The whole experience was memorable and we will be back when we are in the area.

Gluten free crab cakes and calamari!!!!! A+++

A majority of the menu is GF! Chef Jimi has created an amazing menu with many GF options and possibly able to modify things that aren't GF from the menu. My family and I went in, all 4 of us are Celiacs. Super excited to find out the calamari was GF and also very delicious. We also had the crab cakes which were also GF! My steak came with a delicious peppercorn sauce, which in many places you have to omit the sauces, not here! The mashed potatoes were delicious as well. For dessert, we shared the creme brûlée and death by chocolate(flourless chocolate cake) dessert, AMAZING!! Happy to say, not one of us was sick after eating here. Our server was very helpful as well. We will definitely be going back!
