It’s not just the hours that make this joint a draw — it’s the energy. The bar buzzes with a high-octane mix of locals and visitors, all drawn to the casino-quality slots, full-service bar, and craveable menu of in-house ground, USDA Prime beef burgers.

RoJo’s Tavern has been around long enough to see plenty of trends come and go — but it’s never needed flash to build its reputation. A cornerstone of South Lake Tahoe’s local bar scene, RoJo’s offers the kind of relaxed atmosphere that invites you to stay a little longer than you meant to. Its wood-paneled walls and casual dining vibe don’t scream “party,” but by nightfall, the space warms up with laughter, friendly pool matches and no-nonsense pours. Their upstairs event space gives the tavern another dimension — live music, karaoke and parties that turn this laid-back spot into a full-fledged social hub.
