Each thoughtfully designed dish tells a story of Chef Trotta’s expansive culinary experiences from his impressive career which includes such prestigious properties like The Stanley Hotel in Colorado, The Bitter End Yacht Club in the Caribbean, and The Crowne Plaza La Concha in Key West. “I have designed the new Taste menu from the places I have live and drawn culinary influences from New Orleans, New York, Key West, Bahamas, and the British Virgin Islands”, says Trotta, who holds a Culinary Arts Degree from the famed Culinary Institute of America in New York. He also is a Certified Sommelier from the Court of Master Sommeliers.
The Loft is also home to Lake Tahoe’s #1 show, Magic Fusion, featuring award-winning world-class magicians from around the world, which performs nightly in The Loft Theatre.

The Loft is located in the Heavenly Village, on the 3rd floor next to the Cinema. There is a direct entrance from the 3rd floor of the parking structure, or from the ground floor of the village. The Loft is open 7 nights a week throughout the year. For more information, dining reservations or show tickets, visit www.thelofttahoe.com or call us (530) 523-8024.
