    Lobster roll
    Judy S.

    What a cute redo! We used to come to this when t was Napa Sonoma. Now reopened as Cook'd. We Love the outdoor patio and inside/outside options. The food was delish and large portions. We dined on lobster rolls, chicken parm, pizza, boom boom shrimp and toasted ravioli. The wine list was a good mix of price points as well. Our server was great! Had my 84 year old MIL with us-takes forever to decide her meal/spills and she was so gracious and patient. 10/10

    Love the fun environment. The Chicken Alfredo is delicious. My only complaint about that is it doesn't come with any bread. I don't recommend ordering the garlic bread off the appetizers menu to go with it either, because for $9.50 you only get 4 really small thin pieces of crispy baguette bread that have the consistency of a crouton. Not really the garlic bread you'd imagine. I've also had the buffalo chicken salad. Not as thrilled with that one. The lettuce was too warm and the chicken soggy and not quite warm enough. The garlic fries are good. The Tipsy Lavender Lemond is my favorite drink here. The service is good, waiters are attentive.

    Cook'd is doing something right in South Reno. The food is always fantastic, the service is quick and friendly and the atmosphere never disappoints. Came in today again to enjoy a quick lunch and will be back.

    We are visiting from Sacramento and just ate here since it was close to our hotel. Everything we got here was absolutely delicious. Our server holli was also very sweet and took great care of us the whole visit. We would highly recommend this restaurant. They have a nice patio as well which we sat at. It had a nice atmosphere overall and the staff are very friendly. Those shrimp were BOMB!

    A friend recommended Cook'd and it was pretty good! We ordered Spicy Pepperoni and the Margherita Pizza, plus chips and guac appetizer. It was all very good and freshly made. They have a great selection of beer on tap and their happy hour is from 2 to 5pm. It's not the best happy hour, but better than most. The service was excellent! The bartender was quick to service and very knowledgeable when we asked about the pizza. The restaurant was huge and it looked like there were two sections. The side I went to was pretty mellow and felt pretty casual. Overall, I look forward to going back to try more food out.

    Great New Spot in Reno! Cook'd is a great new addition to the Reno dining scene! Located in the former Napa Sonoma space on South Virginia, this restaurant has only been open about four months, but they've already created a fun, welcoming atmosphere. They offer happy hour daily from 2-5 p.m., and their weekend brunch on Saturday and Sunday includes unlimited mimosas for just $15--a great deal. They also have live entertainment every other Thursday night, which adds to the lively atmosphere. The menu has all the traditional bar-food favorites, along with a full selection of other dishes, and everything we tried was good. The drinks were great, the service was friendly and attentive, and the overall experience was excellent. Our server, Belen, was one of the best servers I've encountered in Reno recently. If you're looking for a fun, casual place with good food, good drinks, and good service, I definitely recommend giving Cook'd a try. It's well worth checking out!

    Italian chicken
    Rob B.

    We arrived at 6:30 p.m. without reservations, but we were promptly seated at a high top table in the bar area. There are several different seating areas. There is a nice dining room to the right, a bar area in the middle and an outdoor café on the far left. And they were playing music the entire time we were there which was nice. After looking at the menu, we asked the server about the sauce that came on the Italian chicken. We were told we could get Bolognese sauce instead of the Alfredo sauce. But later she came back and said they didn't have a Bolognese sauce. So we picked a combination of red sauce and Alfredo sauce. A few minutes later, she came back and said we could only get one sauce. Really?? I would've paid an up charge to get the two sauces on the chicken and pasta. Nonetheless, I settled for the red sauce. We waited a long time for our food. As a matter of fact, someone who arrived much later than us got theirs 30 minutes before us. In the end, we waited over an hour for our meal. When my food arrived, the chicken was warm but not hot. The pasta noodles were cold and hardly had any red sauce on them. The chicken had no sauce on it, even though the menu said it came with Alfredo sauce. My husband's chicken tacos were cold, not lukewarm. They were also not very flavorful. Our orders didn't come out as we had hoped as it seemed like there was a lot of miscommunication, confusion and chaos in the kitchen. The prices are somewhat high. An apple cranberry salad (without a protein) cost $21. Fish and chips are $29. Two chicken tacos cost $23. The Italian chicken we ordered was $29. It was a disappointing experience. All in all, due to the menu confusion, the long wait to get our meals, and the fact the pasta was cold, I'm not sure I'll be returning.

    Disappointing Service and Overcooked Food at Cook'd I really wanted to like Cook'd, but our recent visit was defined by kitchen chaos, miscommunication, and serious timing issues. We arrived at 6:30 PM, but our food didn't start arriving until 7:35 PM, over an hour later. In fact, my own plate didn't reach the table until 7:41 PM, well after others who had arrived and ordered after us were already served. While the server was friendly, there was a clear lack of knowledge regarding menu alterations and communication from the kitchen: - Menu & Order Confusion: We were initially told the kitchen had a bolognese sauce (they didn't) and that we could split two different sauces, only to be informed 30 minutes later that this wasn't possible. - Missing Components: Three of us ordered the Italian Fried Chicken one with Alfredo and two with the red "gravy" (marinara). The menu explicitly stated the chicken comes topped with homemade Alfredo sauce, but my plate had none to be found. Just the melted mozzarella. - Temperature & Execution Issues: By the time the chicken tacos and two of the pasta dishes arrived, they were completely cold. My meal finally arrived at the right temperature, but the chicken looked like it had spent far too long in the deep fryer. The front-of-house staff seemed stranded while waiting on a dysfunctional kitchen line. Between the extended wait times, incorrect orders, and cold food, it's hard to justify a return trip anytime soon. The space itself is stunning with indoor and outdoor areas.

    So happy we finally came to try this place out! The remodel is beautiful and just enough of a change that you don't feel like you are at Napa Sonoma. We started with the shrimp appetizer. It was the perfect mix of sweet and spicy. Highly recommended! I got the lobster roll. Tasted fresh and had me craving another one next time I go back! I honestly was blown away by the service and quality of the food. I can't wait to go back and try more on the menu!

    First time going this past weekend. We went for dinner. We made no reservation so we waited at the bar for 15-20min. I don't really like the video gambling set-up, brings down the vibe. The server was attentive. I like the white wine selection. We ordered the fried ravioli, fish & chips, wings and two burgers. Overall food was pretty good, kinda feels like elevated bar food. Next time I would skip the wings. We really enjoyed the outdoor seating. Would come back

    Decided to try this new restaurant on South Virginia in the old Napa Sonoma building they have a happy hour from 2 to 5 so we got a nice new kind of drink and I got tri-tip sliders and my friend got chicken wings and we also got a side of garlic fries. They happen to be the best we've had in a long time. Our waitress was very good and getting our order in our drinks in a timely matter. The place is very wide open. They do have TVs. They also have a bar machines have a fun place. I think you like it. I know we're gonna go back.

    The food and drinks were good, but unfortunately when I saw the sign I thought it would be more like a Dave and busters but the restaurant just has a bunch of casino games. I'm not a gambler so it didn't appeal to me, my wife and I shared some appetizers and drinks, food was good but service left to be desired. If you weren't there to gamble you were kind of forgotten, ambiance is nice tho have some sports on and for football I can see being a good spot to watch the game.

    I went for lunch Thursday and had the tri tip salad. It was fantastic. Very generous portion and so good. Another person in our group had the boom boom shrimp. It's an appetizer but plenty for a full lunch. I tasted hers and it was so good I went back two days later with another friend and ordered the boom boom shrimp. Excellent. Both owners or owner and manager checked in with us to make sure everything was to our liking. They also have a good happy hour from 2-5 every day. Will definitely go back again.

    I forgot to take a before photo but the lobster pasta was delicious!

    I found this place on Yelp and you did not disappoint! Great…read morebartenders, helped me choose a perfect wine. Place is a hit loud but super fun and hip. The pizza is amazing - crust was perfection. Ordered a salad with strawberries and ??? sorry BUT it was great. I've already been back with other friends! Shout out to Nicci at the bar.

    I really wanted to love this place after reading some great reviews!…read more However, we felt it was overrated and disappointing. First, we showed up on a Friday evening around 7pm, and was told there was a 25 min wait. We said no problem and went for a little walk. We even walked all the way to another restaurant called The Shore to see the menu and then decided to try the pizza place. It is a huge restaurant with an inside bar and outdoor patio with lots of seating. The outside looks amazing, but the inside was cramped and super stuffy and hot. We tried to order some drinks inside but the bartender was super busy and then a server came up and basically told us to wait until we got seated before ordering drinks. After another 10-15 min, we finally got seated. I looked around, and there were a lot of people sitting and waiting for food at tables. The waitress was nice, and we ordered our food right away. After waiting an extraordinarily long time with no food or service, we waved the waitress over and she went to check on our order. Came back and said it would be 10 more minutes. Can she offer us some nuts and olives? We were starving so we ate all that was given to us. Finally, our food came out! We only ordered marinara pasta with chicken&mushrooms (since the meatballs were already gone) and one Cherrypicker pizza. The homemade pasta tasted good, but chicken and mushroom was skimpy. Then the pizza had great crust, but the middle was soggy and wet probably from the cherry tomatoes. It took us about 2 hours to get fed that night. I think many other people had the same level of service that night. The place has potential, but I think they need more staff.

    Pizza Collective is still a hidden jam in downtown Reno!…read more From a small wood fire oven a tiny team cranks out some picture perfect Neapolitan style pizzas. It's clear they focus on quality from the dough to the sauce to the cheese to the toppings and they put in a healthy dose of passion, fun and love too. It's been a minute since I've stopped at this place but western lights festival brought me downtown and this was part of my plan from the go. I was excited to see that they added woodfired chicken wings, one of my personal favorite dishes anywhere and had to order them and these is absolutely did not disappoint and I'll be back for them again and again. Sometimes it's tough to get a really good crispy chicken wing out of a woodfired oven but this team nailed it in there, buffalo Parmesan sauce was divine, especially with a little bit of the house made ranch. The pizzas were also good, but I didn't like that. They served them in paper takeout boxes because even the short trip from the cutting table to us in that box steamed the pizza and made it super floppy. Toppings were sliding right off the pepperoni pizza we had and it just wasn't the best pizza experience Of the white pizza we tried with spinach and roasted garlic was awesome. I don't wanna held up a little better maybe because it didn't have sauce and the roasted garlic was perfect. Staff is super sweet and accommodating menu is diverse and interesting in and the vibes of West Street market are great for a date or a group so put this one on your list.

We did a combo of the happy hour menu plus some other small plates between the two of us. Happy hour has some great things on it and good deals on wine and beer for sure.

There's plenty of seating and the space is big. It wasn't too busy the during the Happy Hour of 4-6 pm, but got busier as the night went on. Service was quick and we got our drinks fast. On Mondays, the margarita are $8 each or if you order a margherita pizza, you can get a margarita for free. The food is delicious! And good portions as well. Will definitely be back for more Happy Hours!
