    Awful awful

    With how long the wait was and the amount of fries we were given it's kind of like customary for the fries to still be warm, the fries that we were given feel like chewing on a cardboard box. Given that it is 5:00 now bees fries were probably made at noon

    This place was dirty and awkward. We came here for the Awful Awful. I know the original was a hole in the wall, but this was worse. The ordering experience is confusing. The bread on my burger was crusty and stale. This isn't doing the Awful Awful any justice at all. There were also way too many fries. There's no reason for the fries and burger to come in 2 separate boxes.

    The Brickyard at Baldini's now features the Awful Awful Burger that we used to get at The Little Nugget before it closed. But you know what? I like this Awful Awful Burger even better than the original. The beef patty is bigger. The bun is fluffy and nicely toasted. Just like at the Little Nugget before, you get more fries than you could possibly eat, but these are cut thinner and have minced parsley on them, which, again, I think are better than the original. If you have a Player's card, there are all sorts of specials. I am not a big gambler at all, but I got $5 off my meal. We always have fun at Baldini's and recommend you try the burger. Because it is in a Casino, kids under 21 are not allowed in. It is a very casual environment with lots of locals.

    I'm not a burger fan; nothing wrong with it but burgers have never been my first choice when I eat out but I saw the advertisement that the AWFUL AWFUL was back at Baldini's, I had to try it for nostalgic reasons because I've had the one from the Little Nugget and I figured, it's my duty as a Renoite. Fortunately, when I arrived at the Brickyard Grill, there was only one customer in line so I was able to place my order almost immediately. The ads on the billboard, the jumbo-tron and posters throughout the casino stated that the AWFUL AWFUL was $14.99, plus tax and a $5 tip, the total cost was actually about $20 and then the cashier said it would take about 20 minutes to make my burger. Okay I said and proceeded to pay and waited at the seating area/bar next door. I asked Siri to set a timer but it only took about 11 to get my to-go order. I received 2 boxes: a small box that contained my burger and a big box for the fries. The fries tasted good, it was well seasoned but it probably would have been better had I eaten it while it was hot. The burger was well composed: a good size patty coated with melted American cheese, sandwiched between two slices of an onion bun (which I heartily prefer over a sesame seed or brioche bun) and topped with the standard accoutrements: a leaf of lettuce, a slice of (red) onion and a couple slices of tomatoes, plus a dollop of a familiar orange-hued sauce (Thousand Island dressing, if I have to guess). I have to admit, my burger was cooked well, seasoned properly and kept its structural integrity to last bite. As a far as cost goes, $20 is too much to pay for a burger, even for a decent one but it's almost the same amount you'd pay at McDonald's now-a-days and would I prefer to pay for an AWFUL AWFUL burger over a McDonald's burger? Absolutely; hands down I will choose the AWFUL AWFUL over any fastfood burger. So with the food being actually good, the service was decent, and the price okay, I guess overall, I had a pretty positive dining experience.

    We haven't been to Grand Sierra Resort in quite some time, so it was nice to be back--especially…read morefor a birthday celebration. We were greeted by hostess Julie, who was warm and welcoming right from the start. I really appreciated that the staff acknowledged the birthday without us even having to mention it. Our server, Mary Jane, already knew, which was a great touch (likely from reservation notes which, honestly, was a refreshing change from a past experience at Peppermill). Mary Jane was excellent--attentive, consistent, and on top of everything. Even with how busy it was, she made us feel like we were her only table. Chloe, our food runner, kept things running smoothly. The atmosphere was lively with trivia night and team competitions going on, which added a fun vibe. They also have outdoor seating available. Food was good overall. The birthday boy loved the Crabfest! Tried their sampler platter and Lobster fries both were just okay. Our shrimp came out overcooked at first, but they quickly corrected it and the second round was great. The seafood pasta, fish & chips, shrimp, and poke tacos were all decent, but nothing particularly memorable. Service is definitely 5 stars. Food is closer to 4 stars--but still a solid experience overall.

    Our group (family) came here for dinner, and we had a great meal. It was a rather quiet afternoon,…read moreabout 3 pm, and we were seated between the fireplace wall and the bar. We were greeted by our server (John, I believe), who took drink orders and brought those, but then he took about 15 minutes before taking our meal order. We could see hi working tables between the bar and the casino floor, so we know he wasn't hiding, but it was not the promptest order taking. We ordered a lot, so I'll try to remember them all! We started with onion rings, calamari, and the combo platter (wings, calamari, mozzarella sticks, onion rings). For entrees, there were Cobb salads (Romaine, iceberg, spring mix, crumbled bleu cheese, cherry tomatoes, corn, bacon, eggs, pickled red onions, cucumber, green goddess dressing) but with bacon on the side and extra dressing on the side as well. We also ordered a kid's cheeseburger, and a Paddy Melt (Smashed beef burger, Guinness-braised onions with cheddar and American cheese, bacon, Burger-zing sauce on garlic, grilled sourdough). There were other dishes, but these are the ones with photos! The food came quickly and was nice and hot. Except the salads. The onion rings are always well fried, crisp and not oily. The combo platter is also a favorite, and the calamari went fast as well. The salads are fresh, colorful, with textures and tastes that really come together, and the Green Goddess is a perfect choice. The Paddy Melt was cooked perfectly, and nicely presented, and the kid's burger (1/2) was just the right size for a 10-year-old. All things considered, it was a great meal, and once we got the order in, the service was attentive and professional. Looking forward to a return visit here.

    We were staying at the GSR and wanted to check out Charlie's happy hour to grab some small bites…read more We made a reservation and were sat immediately. Our server Forest was great he explained the menu to us and advised what was covered in the happy hour. The food was also good, the bread basket was the best. We had the lamb lollipops 10/10, Oysters 8/10, loaded baked potato 6/10, lobster bisque 9/10, prawn cocktail 9/10. I definitely suggest giving them a try!

    So we have a little unpacking to do here... First off, Charlie Palmer's is NEVER less than 4 stars…read moreon the quality and presentation of its food. Not sure who the haters are but maybe they lost money in the casino. In the many time I have eaten there, it's always been good to great, and last night was GREAT! My buddy Mike and I make this a mandatory stop when he comes into town, so thanks, buddy, because I was gleefully pleased (and stuffed) when we finally waddled out after a truly enjoyable 2 1/2 hours. The Food: The bread basket and 2 types of butter is always a great way to start and the selection is tasty. Just have to be careful not to overindulge and ruin what follows. The pacing at Charlie's is welcome as they are not trying to turn tables quickly and allow you to enjoy each offering. Mike had the Cobb salad which is always a treat. Next up came the unexpected little mini short rib pies in a delectable crust. Three bites of pure heaven! We could have eaten 12 each and called it a night. A wonderful pallet cleanser of liquid sorbet followed as a prequel to our mains. Mike had the bone in pork chop which he gave a 9/10 to and I had the 6oz duck breast special over succotash cooked to a perfect medium. YUMMMMM!!! Some of the best succotash I've had and the duck was perfect. I ordered two sides, the roasted carrots and the baby summer squash, which again, were perfectly cooked and delicious. Now borderline too full for dessert, a glance at the menu and we couldn't resist. Sorbet for Mike and the deconstructed chocolate banana cream pie for me. I couldn't help myself and devoured the whole thing! We polished off a beautiful Willamette Valley Pinot and sat back and relaxed. The Ambience: For a casino steak house i think it shines pretty well. Fairly light and modern, and classy but not over the top. The spacing of the tables is excellent, so you are not abused by other people's conversations. A wonderful place for a date, I suppose. The Service: OK, this is where the 5 star rating really takes place. Being a great server I feel has become a lost art. Probably the main reason Mike and I make this a regular stop isn't the excellent food, but the friendship we have created with Donovan! He shines at his craft on a higher level than any restaurant I have visited. He's funny, concise, informative, etc.... Pure precision and perfection from start to finish. I'm honored to be able to consider him a friend, and it brings the dining experience to the uppermost level! Thanks Buddy. Probably a good idea to ask for his section when you dine there and you will understand. As always, will look forward to my next visit to Charlie's in a month or so. Cheers, JimG

    It was such a beautiful day.... where can we eat outside?…read more I found "The Spot", its in the old Smee's location on the river. When we showed up, we asked if we could sit at a table outside, the guy was a little overwhelmed, he said "I can sit you in 10 mins". I said "can we have this table". OK, but....just know I'll be with you as soon as I get caught up, I'm totally fine with that I said. . He bought us a couple menus to look over. Then a table on the railing with shade opened up, I didn't care about the table was dirty with dishes, so we decided to move. I love to look at the river and watch the people go by. The server said, I'll be over soon! He was never so happy when Sierra showed up to help him out. He came over to our table I said "I hope you don't mind, I moved to be in the shade, I know I'm one of those pain in the ass customers". Then he started joking with me and it was the perfect ice breaker. My server and part owner's name is Casey! He is an awesome guy and such a hard worker to ensure his customers are taken care of. I love that. We had a couple beers, he has quite the selection of beers on tap, he supports the community breweries such as Lead Dog and Revisions. My husband had the breakfast burrito $13, it was huge with homemade tortilla chips with salad and guacamole. I had the fish and chips. You get three large pieces of fish, fries and yummy coleslaw. I love how they put the tater sauce and ketchups in personal cups for you that shows class. My fish was absolutely delicious better than the old Smees and especially the new location. You get a nice meal for $20. They have indoor, outdoor, bar seating. They have a little merch area and a gaming bar if you feel lucky. I know the Open Championship Bowlers are in town, if you're looking for nice comfort food "tavern style" location this is the place for you on the Reno Riverwalk 50 N Sierra. It upstairs.

    Very interesting place. Went here for happy hour, but the website is wrong and there was no happy…read morehour...but they had football specials. Either way this worked out, as we decided to split a smash burger and hubs beer was on the football list of drinks. I got an IPA..it was only 8 dollars normal price. The place inside is small, and it was cold outside, yet people still weathered the outside to see the river. The bartenders were doing a great job with service. Out food was very good and we loved the French fries. It got chaotic at the end, as a bar crawl of some type showed up and overwhelmed the staff...not their fault. It got very rowdy in there so we left. I will come back during better weather. I only suggest you fix your website to be more current.
