We host a wide range of private dining events, including corporate dinners, holiday parties, ski groups, wedding rehearsal dinners, wedding receptions, and large birthday celebrations.

For instant booking, we focus on large dinner parties in our private dining room. Larger events, full buyouts, and weddings are handled through a custom inquiry.

Instant booking is available for groups of 13–50 guests booking our private dining room.

We occasionally accommodate events larger than 50 guests or full buyouts based on availability, which require a custom inquiry.

Following a booking, a member of our management team will follow up within 1–3 days to review details like menus, timing, and logistics.

Your booking secures the date and minimum right away — the follow-up is simply to fine-tune the experience and make sure everything is dialed in.

You can use either if you like.

We reccomend that you:

Use instant booking if:

• Your group is 13–50 guests

• You’re booking a private dining room

• Your date is available on the calendar

• You’d like to secure your date right away

Use a custom inquiry if:

• Your event is larger than 50 guests

• You’re interested in a full buyout

• Your event is within 7 days

• You’re requesting patio space or something outside instant booking options

Please note: custom inquiries do not reserve dates. Dates are held upon receipt of a deposit or agreement form a manager. The best way to make sure your date stays available is to use the instant booking calendar. We will respond to custom inquiries as quickly as we are able. Typically 1-3 days.

Yes — patio events are possible, but availability is weather-dependent.

We typically begin releasing patio dates in late winter or early spring once we have better visibility into weather patterns. Until then, patio events are handled through a custom inquiry.

For outdoor bookings, we plan conservatively. When possible, we keep indoor private dining options available as a backup.

In the case of major weather events (such as severe snowstorms or road closures), please contact us — we’re locals, we live with it we get it, and we’ll work with you in those situations.

No. There are no separate site or room fees. All costs are built into the per-person menu pricing and minimums.

Yes there are those.

We charge a 22% gratuity that gets distributed to our kitchen staff, our servers, our bartenders, our hosts, our bussers, and our setup crew. They deserve it.

We require a minimum of 7 days’ notice for private dining bookings.

Availability often becomes more limited within two weeks of an event date, especially during peak seasons. Booking earlier gives you the best selection of dates and spaces.

For events within 7 days, instant booking is not available.

If your event is coming up soon, we recommend calling the restaurant directly. Short-notice requests are typically a quick yes or no, and a phone call is the fastest way to check availability.

You’re also welcome to submit a custom inquiry, but response times may vary during busy periods.

Dates are only held once a booking is completed with a deposit.

We offer three menu tiers:

• Base

• Enhanced

• Premium

Each tier is designed to support our kitchen planning, staffing, and inventory. All private dining events are priced within one of these tiers.

No, there’s an option to decide later, but we will eventually ask you to pick a tier.

We offer limited flexibility within each menu tier.

Small adjustments and substitutions are often possible, and select upgrades may be available à la carte. However, all events must remain within their selected tier for pricing and planning purposes.

This structure helps us deliver a smooth experience for both guests and staff.

We can accommodate most dietary restrictions and allergies.

Please note any dietary needs during booking — our team will review them during follow-up.

Yes. A 10% deposit based on the food & beverage minimum is required to secure your booking.

• 7+ days out: Full refund minus a $50 administrative fee

• 6–3 days out: 50% of deposit refunded

• Within 48 hours or no-show: Full minimum charged

We understand that Tahoe weather and life happen — if there’s an emergency, please call us and we’ll work with you when possible.

Yes — River Ranch is handicap accessible and has a private parking lot.

While we cannot guarantee parking availability during peak seasons or severe weather, parking is typically sufficient for most events.
