- TV celebrity Lisa Vanderpump has opened her newest venture at Harvey’s Lake Tahoe.
- The restaurant is called Wolf by Vanderpump and is operated in partnership with Caesars Entertainment.
- Vanderpump has previously partnered with Caesars on three restaurants in Southern Nevada.
Last night, television icon and successful restaurateur Lisa Vanderpump launched her newest venture, Wolf by Vanderpump, in a glamorous event held at Harveys Lake Tahoe. This dazzling celebration, hosted in partnership with Caesars Entertainment, featured an extravagant “white carpet” arrival, where Vanderpump, accompanied by her dog Marky, greeted a crowd of celebrities and guests eager to explore the offerings of the new restaurant.
Joining the festivities were notable personalities like Bravo TV’s Garcelle Beauvais, “Drag Race” star Trixie Mattel, singer Leona Lewis, and actors Jesse Bradford and Andrea Watrouse. Cast members from Vanderpump’s latest show, “Vanderpump Villa,” were also in attendance, adding to the star-studded ambiance.
Lisa Vanderpump shared her excitement about the opening, describing Wolf as a departure from her previous establishments in terms of design and inspiration. “Wolf is visually so different from any of my other restaurants and has become a passion project for both me and my design partner, Nick Alain. We drew inspiration from the stunning surroundings of Lake Tahoe, incorporating bold, playful, and luxurious elements that embody the spirit of a wolf,” Vanderpump stated.
The interior of Wolf by Vanderpump, co-designed with Nick Alain, reflects the majestic beauty of Lake Tahoe. The restaurant features a striking 47-foot marble top bar—the longest in Lake Tahoe—accented with custom brass lamps and dramatic white marble wolves. The décor includes massive water features with stone columns and glistening icicles, creating a luxurious yet nature-inspired atmosphere.
Karie Hall, SVP and General Manager of Harrah’s and Harveys Lake Tahoe, expressed pride in the transformation of the space into a stunning dining destination. “It’s been an honor to collaborate with Lisa and Nick on this project. Wolf by Vanderpump is a testament to our commitment to becoming a culinary hotspot in Lake Tahoe,” Hall remarked.
The innovative cocktail menu, curated by Vanderpump family mixologist Pandora Vanderpump Sabo, includes unique creations like the “Sheep’s Clothing,” a spicy and sweet martini, and the “Huff & Puff,” a smoky take on the classic old fashioned. The food menu offers playful appetizers and hearty dishes, such as the Wolf Signature Bread, Bourbon Chicken Wings, and a decadent Bone-In New York Strip.
Lisa Vanderpump also took a moment to reflect on her growing partnership with Caesars Entertainment, which will see the opening of her third Las Vegas restaurant, Pinky’s by Vanderpump, later this year. “Working with Caesars Entertainment has been a dream. They’ve allowed us the freedom to create and bring our visions to life, making this experience truly memorable,” she said.
Wolf by Vanderpump is now open to the public, welcoming guests every evening from 4 p.m. For more details about the restaurant and to make reservations, visit the Caesars Entertainment website at Harveys Lake Tahoe – Wolf by Vanderpump.
