About this restaurant

  • Great for scenic views
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for fine wines
A memorable dining experience awaits you as you enter the Christy Hill Restaurant in the center of Tahoe City. The restaurant sits on the shoreline of Lake Tahoe on an elevated embankment offering diners a panoramic vista. The intimate setting offers guests a view that is only upstaged by the cuisine, wine and service. Spectacular sunsets that can be seen from every table is just one of the many reasons that Christy Hill was voted "Most Romantic Restaurant" and "North Lake Tahoe's Iconic Restaurants with World-Class Views" by the San Francisco Chronicle.

Executive Chef, Luis Vallin, focuses on sustainability and innovation, supporting local merchants and farmers. The thoughtful and playful menu pays homage to the tradition of Christy Hill while continuing to uplift and propel the cuisine and restaurant into exciting new territory.

    Consistently exceptional. We mentioned that it was my husband’s birthday and they brought him a beautiful dessert. Service is so great. This place never disappoints.

    Amazing experience! We went for my fiance's 30th birthday and it was a perfect atmosphere, all of the staff was awesome, and they were on top of my gluten-free/celiac needs. I felt safe, comfortable, and the two of us had a great time and great meal. I would love to come back!

    We enjoyed the tasting menu at Christy Hill. The view of the lake is stunning and the overall dining experience was exceptional. There was not a single thing that we did not enjoy. The complexity of flavors was so well thought out. We plan to return!
