Swiss Chalet restaurant staying closed for now

The iconic Swiss Chalet restaurant will remain closed for several more months.

When reached last fall, owner Peter Baumann told Lake Tahoe News the South Lake Tahoe restaurant would reopen Dec. 12. That didn’t happen. On Jan. 7, he told LTN it will open in the summer.

He said personal reasons are keeping the restaurant closed.

While there is a for sale sign on the property, Baumann said it is for the center. Asked if the restaurant is for sale, he said, “I can’t disclose that right now.”

The center has been on the market since last spring.
