Where Joy Meets Cuisine

My daughter was married a few days ago and we held the dinner at Toulouse. Choosing Toulouse to host the wedding dinner was the best decision ever!! The food was out of this world! Everyone loved their entree. The steak, chicken and salmon were cooked to perfection! The service was incredible. They were so attentive and enjoyable throughout the night. The owner, Steve and his lovely wife, were such a joy. I cannot thank them and the staff enough for the wonderful memories they assisted in creating. I would recommend Toulouse to everyone! ~Mindi H.

How it Started – Origin story

Four people working in the hospitality industry met in a bar on Toulouse Street in The French Quarter of New Orleans. Over-time they became great friends and when the first one moved away he stated, “our paths will cross again.” Sure enough, over the next three decades, we worked together and apart in cities across the USA, including New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Telluride, Washington DC and of course The Big Easy. In early 2021 an opportunity presented itself and Toulouse was born here in South Lake Tahoe, CA. Original founder, Chef Jon Wainwright is our executive chef serving fresh CA cuisine with a New Orleans soul and the rest of the founding team is here to make sure you are fed, happy and full.
