Business Description
Lake Tahoe Hotspot – Full-Service Restaurant, Bar & Licensed Gaming
If you’ve ever dreamed of owning a restaurant and bar in one of the most breathtaking locations in the country, this is your once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Located in the vibrant South Lake Tahoe area — just minutes from major casinos, the Tahoe Blue Vodka Arena, and championship golf course — this beloved establishment is perfectly positioned to attract both loyal locals and the millions of visitors drawn to the region each year. Set in a true four-season playground, the business thrives near one of the world’s most iconic alpine lakes — where summers bring crowds of sunseekers, boaters, and hikers, and winters welcome a surge of skiers and snow lovers from around the globe. Surrounded by world-class recreation and nonstop adventure, the location offers unparalleled lifestyle appeal and consistent, year-round foot traffic. With more than 15 million annual tourists and a dynamic population of second-homeowners, thrill-seekers, and remote-working professionals, the area is a magnet for growth-minded restaurateurs ready to tap into a high-demand, high-lifestyle market.

This full-service restaurant and bar offers a turnkey operation with a strong local following and consistent tourist foot traffic. The well-designed space includes a welcoming dining area, a lively bar with multiple screens for sporting events, and a patio that beckons customers year-round. It’s the kind of place where locals know your name — and visitors return year after year.

Gaming is in place, giving qualified buyers an additional revenue stream in a high-margin category. Nevada state law requires the new owner to apply for their own gaming license, but everything you need to activate that potential is already built in and ready to go.

The back-of-house features a thoughtfully laid-out commercial kitchen with top-tier equipment, including a pizza oven, wet bath, fryers, mixers, refrigeration, and more — all in great condition. The bar is equally outfitted with multiple fridges, cocktail stations, frosters, and glass storage, making it ideal for high-volume nights, après ski traffic, and summer crowds.

The business has benefited from consistent local ownership with a commitment to quality, service, and community engagement. Staff is in place, systems are dialed, and branding is well-recognized throughout the region. Whether you're a seasoned operator looking to expand or an investor searching for that perfect lifestyle acquisition, this business offers a rare blend of operational stability, location appeal, and upside potential.

Imagine serving stone and brick fired pizza and cold craft beer after a powder day on the slopes… hosting trivia nights and live music for loyal locals… and watching your business thrive in a place where people come to relax, celebrate, and create lasting memories.

Opportunities like this don’t come along often — and when they do, they go fast.
