Lisa Vanderpump's Wolf Restaurant Is Officially Open: "It Took a Minute..."
The Vanderpump Rules boss hosted a star-studded grand opening for the Lake Tahoe restaurant.
After months of teasers and growing anticipation, Lisa Vanderpump’s Lake Tahoe restaurant is finally open for business.
On Thursday, April 18, the Vanderpump Rules boss hosted a lavish grand opening for Wolf by Vanderpump, an upscale bar/eatery located inside Harveys Lake Tahoe Hotel and Casino. The restaurant marks Lisa’s first concept in the Lake Tahoe area and was expected to launch this past winter; however, the plans were pushed back a bit as Lisa and her team wrapped up several construction projects.
“We thought we could do something really wonderful here,” Lisa told KRNV about the exciting venture. “It took a minute, but we got it done.”

Additional videos and photos of the night were reshared on Wolf’s Instagram. Many of the Stories highlighted the restaurant’s gorgeous interior design, which was helmed by Lisa’s longtime business partner Nick Alain. Lisa expanded on the Wolf aesthetic in an April 19 press release, saying she wanted the eatery to reflect the Lake Tahoe spirit.
“We are so excited to open Wolf in stunning Lake Tahoe,” she said. “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 are delighted to take elements from the incredibly beautiful locale and incorporate them into the aesthetic – it’s bold, playful, and luxurious – everything a wolf is and more. We can’t wait for guests to get the full Wolf experience.”
What's on the Wolf by Vanderpump menu?
Wolf also boasts an extensive cocktail menu that was created by Pandora. Exclusive drinks include the signature Sheep’s Clothing (a strawberry martini with jalapeño vodka), the Huff & Puff (a blood orange old fashioned), and the Bitch in Heat (a cactus ancho chili margarita).
The food menu is reportedly anchored by “bold classic dishes with a playful twist” as well as elevated comfort food, like a Double Smash Burger, Bourbon Chicken Wings, Lobster Crisps, and Ken’s Guinness Fish ‘N’ Chips.
