In an area such as Lake Tahoe that attracts visitors (and locals) from around the world, one of the lucky results is a melting pot of ethnic restaurants. And some of the most-visited here are the Tahoe restaurants serving Mexican fare. Many of these spots have been popular eateries for decades, and they just keep on pulling in the crowds of hungry, happy diners. Some look like old haciendas and exude the charm and culture of our southern neighbors. Others are located in the middle of a casino or shopping center, so authentic ambiance might be lacking, but the flavors won’t be. Some offer Mexican fare alongside other culinary choices … on the off chance that someone in your party prefers burgers or pizza. If outdoor dining is offered, and it is in many places, head on out (with Fido in tow), order up a pitcher or two of margaritas to provide the prefect complement and relax. If you look at our interactive map, you’ll see a cluster of Mexican restaurants in South Lake Tahoe, but no matter where you are around the lake, you’ll easily find good options for tacos, burritos and more.

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.
