4100 Lake Tahoe Boulevard, South Lake Tahoe, CA
One of the first of the fun and different restaurants to come to South Lake Tahoe with the redevelopment projects near the state line was FiRE + iCE Interactive Bar + Grill. The concept is that you choose your own components and sauces and the chef grills it all up right in front of you. It works very well with the Heavenly Village setting of whole-timber construction and patio fire pits. You can choose your ingredients along one of their four themes of Latin, American, Asian or Italian or create your very own blend. And the build-your-own model lets you control the meal, which is perfect for vegetarian diners. Be sure not to miss their grill lunch or dinner, both offered at one All You Can Eat price.

The Village at Palisades Tahoe
22 Bistro is one of the first restaurant/bar options that you encounter when walking off the slopes and coming into the Village at Palisades Tahoe. One fun aspect of 22 (as it is affectionately known by locals) is that it caters to both higher-end tastes with a fine-dining menu while at the same time offering an array of quick-food options and après-ski drinks. Their outdoor seating is excellent for people watching, and it makes an easy-to-find meeting point. 22 offers summer and winter menus; one item that is included on both, and highly recommended, is the 22 Bistro Burger. Another benefit of 22 is their catering department that can accommodate large and small parties as well as weddings. The restaurant closes during the slow season of late October to mid-November.

With its spot on the main corner of downtown Truckee, Bar of America’s location alone draws people through its doors. After 40 years in business, however, there is more to the place locals call “B of A” than where it stands (and, yes, B of A was once a Bank of America). Sure, the historic red brick building and large windows are authentically inviting, but...read more
