Spending your Thanksgiving in Truckee Tahoe? There are plenty of options for everyone. From a slopeside dinner at Palisades Tahoe and three and four course dine-in dinners, Truckee and Lake Tahoe’s best chefs are serving both Thanksgiving classics and nontraditional twists. We’ve rounded up the best below.

SLOPESIDE DINNER AT PALISADES TAHOE 

Don’t stress about cooking and cleaning on Thanksgiving this year.  Instead, spend the morning taking in the views of the Sierra on the ski slopes then sit down for a delicious meal at Palisades Tahoe. Their Thanksgiving Dinner offers a grand buffet, carving stations, holiday side dishes, and desserts. Beverages include a complimentary glass of champagne on arrival and a full bar. There are two seatings at 2:30pm and 5:30pm.
