    Food was pretty darn good, but service and place was a little bizarre. They have a 109 seat theatre right next to the dining space and so you hear cheering and shouting while you dine and then they all exit through the whole restaurant. That’s 100 people walking through the middle of a restaurant. Service was average. Food comes out when ready (our salad appetizer came last and it was 5-10 minutes after our 2nd last dish). Also I was charged on my CC and then was called a few hours later that the charge hasn’t gone through. These things happen but still a little annoying to call back and pay over the phone.

    The food is great, we had the small filet for $25, (small portion but very tender, great flavor). I love the ambience, server was very nice and attentive. Great place for girlfriends to get together, or for a date.

    We didn’t like the service at all, definitely not a kid friendly restaurant. If you have kids don’t consider this restaurant. Food or better to say finger food was a ok but Over priced for the overall experience! Definitely won’t go back again! Hard pass!

    i had never been to the loft. it had been 10 years since i was in tahoe. i read in the local paper about the magic show at the loft and it's dinner show. so i took a chance and boy, was i glad i did that. dinner was absolutely marvelous. the food style was tapas, so there was not one large meal, just small portions of very delicious foods. the atmosphere was very easy going and dinner talk was not noisy.
