A red door between red curtains, amber light at its edge

Incline Village, Lake Tahoe

Find the red door.

A hidden cocktail and piano bar on the lower level of Gus' BBQ. No sign. Red curtains, a red door, and the room behind it.

A place to hide out, for the locals.

Gaviota opened in 2025 under Gus' Open Pit BBQ. It's dark and it's loud in the good way: deep blues and reds, Tiffany-style lamps, leather couches, a piano, and a gull over the door.

Come for one drink before dinner upstairs, or stay for the music.

Act one

Cocktails

The menu follows a theme and changes with the season. Last winter's ran on the movies. Bar director Tess McFarland keeps the classics on the back bar.

The Bar

Act two

The room

Piano, live sets and DJs, mostly on weekends. A gaming lounge with video gaming machines, which is why the door is 21+.
