    Mushroom Swiss Burger, 19. | re-fired after med-rare fail (well done was too off not to report). Sad solo w/o fries, side, or even garnish!
    Nettie S.

    *foodie DEETS here* - my review #224, its #428. 08.14.26 - Got room credit to use. Busy day, no eats til late nite. 08.22.26 - 2nd time in ~wk cuz noms & comps galore saved. T L ; D R . . . Way better than expected. Non-trad'l bar food, elevated by seafood! Est 1979 in Philly. Now, 23 locays across the country incl inside Grand Sierra Resort (GSR) in Reno since 2022. Pro tips: 1) use ur casino comps, if any, and/or 2) if paying, still run player's card to earn points for every $ spent! V I B E S . . . Hip, large sports bar/resto. Loud & lively sounds from the casino. N O M S . . . Tried the following from Late Night & Special Menus: - Lamb Meatballs (3pc, Aug), 12. | NOMS w/ romesco sauce & melted mozzarella. should have more than tttiny basil on each tho. - Ultimate Tailgate Burger, 29. | decent w/ jumbo lump crab cake over seared beef patty, American cheese, veg, aïoli, & handcrafted brioche bun - Lobster Philly w/ grilled onions, 32. & peppers (red bell, +2. not mentioned on late nite menu, but verbally offered. so, waived) | cheesesteak topped w/ lobster meat & famous cheese sauce on seeded hoagie. beef was lil tough, but good flavs. *REC Came back for Din Menu: - Dry Rub Wings "Snack" (6), 15. | mild rub, juicy wings. 1 flav & no flats-only (should at least offer as an upcharge). picked lemon "garlic" aïoli | strong citrus, but couldn't taste the garlic. later got some minced ones on the side, n/c. - (Sautéed) Mushroom Swiss Burger, 19. | ordered med-rare, but came out well! too off not to report. server asked mgr to comp & kitch to re-fire. Btw, real sad to come solo w/o any fries, side, or even garnish! lol - Warm Lobster Roll (split top), 39. | bland meat, lil dry. I shouldn't have to enhance it myself. auto w/ field greens & lemon vinaigrette. could we choose?? - Vanilla Ice Cream w/ whipped cream & caramel, comped for special occasion | nice treat Interested in trying: - Crab & Street Corn Nachos, 28. - Housemade Ricotta Doughnuts, 12. | w/ raspberry & salted caramel dips D R I N K S A V A I L . . . - but YYY? Free drinks r just a few feet away! lol - Cocktails, 14. - Wines, 9-18. - DD, 19. | i.e. Blueberry Virg Mojito - Fountain Bev, 6. | W T F $$ - Draft, 4-12. | OGs, 8-9. - Spiked Seltzers & Cider, 9. - Non-Alkie, 8. S E R V I C E . . . Bailee was nice til we were rushed out. Her mgr (dark-skinned) was rude & came in hot. Shouldn't have sat us @11:40p if yalls weren't planning to follow industry standards. Coming from a fellow restaurateur, u let customers finish, not kick them out 15mins from when food was dropped after midnight last seating. Corporate should be informed. Pleasant experience the following wk tho w/ Mary Jane who was super friendly & attentive. I praised her to that nite's mgr (tall Caucasian). She's an asset to the company. TBH, if I was staffing locally, I would've stolen this rare gem! No rezzies F-Sun, but use Opentable otherwise. None needed, but collect ur points. Lastly, silver plasticware to go is an elegant touch, I see u. - Return? Yea, w/ comps - Restroom sitch (helps gauge resto's cleanliness): usually clean w/ attendant in casino - Out the door for 2ppl w/o drinks: ~95. P.S. Appreciate my efforts? Show this (Asian) sista some love by SMASHing reactions & FOLLOW if u don't already, thx!! ;-P Remember to live to eat, not eat to live...

    Crabby sweet fries
    Ruell M.

    Dined here over a dozen times and failed to write a review because each time I eat here my hands are smelling like crab meat from all the finger licking crab I stuff myself with here. Down to the simple basics. Get a market price crab with 20% discount anyday of the week if you have a players card and a local reno resident. This is the only place I dine in here in Reno to get a freshly roasted crab with the Cajun spices. Good enough to share for two or feast it all yourself. If you know how to strip and pick every source of edible meat on crab and love it, this is the place to grab one. They also have this nice sports bar setup with so many tv's to make you feel it is still 6pm even though it is close to midnight. Place is lively and has other good dishes like crabbie fries which they are known for which are basically a seasons crinkle fries with cheese dips. Staff is always nice and friendly and this place is good for either date night or family night. Oysters and clam chowder soup is also nicely prepared and tasting great! Will always be my go to place for roasted crab in Reno!

    So good!!  Philly Cheesesteak
    Nichole S.

    Came here yesterday to watch the 49er game. This is a perfect place to watch the game. There is big screens all over restaurant. It gets packed during big games so I suggest you get there early to get a table. They don't take reservations. We had a perfect table in front of the game. The raider game was going on as well. We ordered a Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich and fries! And an appetizer combo. On the cheesesteak sandwich it didn't come with jalapeños or hot peppers you had to pay extra. Was expensive like $2 each. So that was disappointing. But the cheesesteak was delicious! One of the best I've had. It was worth the up charge for the peppers and jalapeños. The combo appetizer was really good as well. The mozzarella cheese sticks were good, but didn't have a good cheese pull but nevertheless it was still good, especially with the marinara sauce. I also liked the wings . I look forward to coming back!

    Staff were friendly when you could find them. Service was very slow in this casual sports bar. Great access to watch games, but come for a high priced drink and skip the food. I had the fried chicken club and the house sauce couldn't be found, the chicken was tiny, and the lettuce/tomato was a suggestion. The fries looked crispy, but sadly were lacking. My husband had the chicken cheesesteak and well everything great makes a cheesesteak is extra.

    Crabfries!!
    Michelle N.

    The crabfries were delicious! Definitely need to get crabfries if you come here. We tried the lobster roll and chowder, which were okay. We also had their dessert special, strawberry shortcake, which was really good and I'd get that again. It would probably be a nice addition to the menu permanently.

    Long wait for a table and the food too, but their crab, oysters, and sweet potato fries with cheese sauce are amazing. Parking could be a pain though, especially during the holidays.

    I enjoyed this sports bar.. They had a great beer for $4... that's right $4.00 all night called GSR for the casino/resort and it was quite refreshing I also had the sweet potato fries that were quite enjoyable and the staff were really nice. It's a spot I would come back to

    Solid sports bar located in the casino with a good selection of food and drink options to enjoy while you watch different sports on multiple screens. Jaslyn was great, very helpful and friendly and our food came out quickly.

    Can't remember the flavor, but it was tasty!

    Our group (family) came here for dinner, and we had a great meal. It was a rather quiet afternoon, about 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.

    Cookie dessert. 10/10
    Bea S.

    Came here twice. Everything was a ok. More of a 3.5 but rounding up for overall experienxd. Cocktails weren't great. Too sweet and not enough alcohol. Crab Rangoon cheese sticks were a fun way to eat mozarella sticks and they were delicious! Could use maybe some green onions in the filling and a spicier dressing but yum! Caesar salad with salmon was good. Not the best dressing but salmon was cooked to my liking (a little under done). Friends seemed to enjoy their meals but I forgot what they ordered. First visit service was so lax. Very casual and no one in a rush. Loved the big screens to watch the World Cup. Second visit sat by the bar. Service was friendly personable and we got checked on often. We tipped her well because she knew we were going to be there watching the USA game and we had just eaten so ordered drinks and desserts. The cookie dessert with ice cream is FABULOUS. warm and gooey and salty and chocolatey. So lovely. Definitely recommend. We ordered more crab Rangoon sticks. And other friend had the fried donuts but they looked overdone. All in all, it's pricey because it's in the resort. But got good screens to watch sports and it's not going to be mind blowing gourmet meals, it's a sports bar but you should be satisfied.

    We haven't been to Grand Sierra Resort in quite some time, so it was nice to be back--especially for 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.

    I would say a solid three stars...leaning to the half...nothing wrong with this place, just expected better. The inside and ambience was amazing for a sports bar and our server was excellent. We opted to get the GSR lager, for the price point and the low alcohol content for lunch. This was deliciously cold and satisfying. Hub ordered the boneless buffalo wings and wanted some fries, but the only fries were the chickie fries and they were not only pricey, but also too big for a one person portions, so I helped him eat those. The fries tasted good, but the cheese was super meh...I did not get much out of that at all. I also ordered a salad and the salad was quite good with the dressing on the side. A bit expensive, but it is in a casino...I would definitely return for the beer...in fact we got two big ones to go later that evening we liked the beer so much.

    This was an extremely disappointing visit to Chickie's & Pete's. We had reservations here for dinner before the Lucy Darling show. Upon arrival, we were sat immediately and greeted by our waitress. The restaurant was clean, bright, and had very few occupied tables. The service from our waitress was non-existent during our stay even though there were very few tables requiring service. She was at our table to greet us and take our drinks, and to take our order but that was it. We had to leave our table to find her to get drink refills and to ask for our check. To drink, we ordered the Churchill Sour and the Blueberry Mojito with a shot of the house rum (it's a virgin on the menu). The Churchill Sour was well balanced and complex. The Blueberry Mojito with a shot of house rum was anything but good. It tasted like straight soda water...even after being mixed at the table. I did order a 2nd one later on and did 2 shots of the house rum and specifically asked for the bartender to mix it and it did taste slightly better. I was shocked to see that on the bill that EACH shot of house rum cost almost the exact same as the Churchill Sour! To start the meal we ordered the crispy calamari. Not only did this come out barely warm and chewy from being overcooked, but it also came to our table with our main courses (I specifically told her that this was our appetizer and we wanted it out first). For our main courses, we ordered the fish and chips, the warm lobster roll, and the lobster philly cheesesteak. The fish and chips were delicious. The fish was light, flaky, and flavorful. The lobster philly cheesesteak was a good surprise. I was on the fence about seafood with cheese, however they complemented each other nicely. The meat was seasoned to perfection and cooked to beautifully. The fries that came with the fish and added onto the philly were the HIGHLIGHT of the meal! They were crispy on the outside, warm and soft on the inside, and the seasoning was on point. The warm lobster roll was just ok. The lobster was ice cold (the butter it came with to dip it in was cold too) and slightly overcooked. The roll was also lacking all flavor and seasoning. Sadly, during our time at Chickie's & Pete's we were not the only table that had these or similar issues. We watched 2 tables walk out before ordering as their wait time for drinks and/or to be greeted was pushing 20 minutes after being seated, other tables actively searching for servers, and heard several complaints from nearby tables about food quality. Unfortunately, I think we may be taking a break from Chickie's and Pete's for a while when we visit GSR.

    My favorite place to get a cocktail in Reno…read more They have a unique "Old Fashioned" with buffalo trace bourbon, moroccan sugar, coconut, tobacco bitters, dehydrated pineapple. It really does not taste anything like an "old fashioned" but it's very good and my usual go-to. Ambiance is cool. Has a very Edgar Alan Poe vibe mixed with an alchemist/speakeasy. They have a small patio as well. Service: top-notch mixologists/alchemists.

    I'm battling this review. I battle rating it for the drinks/ambiance versus the service. The good:…read moreabsolutely the cutest vibe and decor. Love the quality of the drinks as they absolutely put effort and time making quality drinks with quality ingredients. It's relatively small inside so I can only imagine it could get packed in there. We had several drinks and every single one was perfection! The bathroom is the cutest and they have the coolest speakeasy door that the employees use to get to the back (not for the customers). My rant..I'm not from the area so I had NO idea what this place was when I walked by. It looked cute so my husband, myself and child walked up the steps and they sat outside while I went to check it out and see if this was a bar/club/ restaurant. I walked inside and instantly got the death glare from an employee. I instantly said omg I take it this place isn't kid friendly.. he rudely said no. I wanted to clarify and confirm even outside ? He said no. I apologized and they left but the vibe and way he said it was definitely off putting. My sister and I decided to stay for a drink while my husband/child went to walk around. Usually I don't give bad costumer service a chance.. but I realllllllly wanted a drink that one of those others customers were drinking. If this place had better costumer service. It would be a 5
