About The Red Hut Cafe & Soda Fountain

The Red Hut Cafe & Soda Fountain offers delicious breakfast, brunch, and lunch options, known as one of the best in the Tahoe Carson area. Popular menu items include waffles, Rosti, burgers, biscuits & gravy, and chicken fried steak. The staff is very accommodating and friendly, making sure that service is quick and attentive. The food is generally good, with big portions and some standout dishes like the BLT with jalapeño bacon, eggs benedict, and corned beef hash cooked with a crispy shell and eggs over medium served with tomato slices. Many customers find the atmosphere to be welcoming and charming, similar to other Red Hut locations in Tahoe and Reno. However, it can get noisy during busy times, especially on Sundays after church. The restaurant has a back room for larger groups and offers a discount for cash payments. Parking is limited in front but available along the side. Visitors are encouraged to enjoy the original lakeside location and consider purchasing a souvenir coffee mug. The menu has expanded to include a variety of options for both veg and non-veg, with generous serving sizes. The friendly staff, including servers like Angie, Linda, and others, contribute to a welcoming and upbeat vibe. Customers often praise the quick service and cleanliness of the restaurant, making it a favorite spot for many. The atmosphere is lively and cheerful, and the waffles continue to be highly recommended. Although the soda fountain is no longer open, the overall experience remains enjoyable, and many visitors appreciate the chance to revisit this beloved spot.
