The dirty chai is
Gabbi H.

Coffee: Like all its locations, the coffee here is awesome--some of the best in town. Definitely recommend them for a coffee stop. Coffee is 5 stars. Snacks: Breakfast sandwich was pretty good--not great. Could use more flavor for sure. I should have tried a fresh-baked scone! They were baked fresh that morning. Location: It's an odd location in the Reno Town Mall. You enter through a side door between the mall entrance and Burlington Coat Factory. The coffee shop itself is cute even if the mall needs a makeover. Service: The barista was so kind and welcoming to everyone who came in. Just a ray of sunshine.

Menu and pastry case

First time visiting this location. I have been to the location at the Sparks Marina before but this one is a hidden gem in the Reno Town Mall near the Atlantis Casino. Barista was very nice and super quick. Cold brew was great and there were some good pastries in the case. The banana chocolate chip muffin was vegan and gluten free, but still tasted scrumptious. There are a few tables inside to sit and enjoy and even a small outdoor patio area if that tickles your fancy!

Grace chatted with me the whole time and was really friendly and seemed to genuinely love working there. Their coffee is really good too, so had the winter spice dirty chai and loved the solid amount of spiced flavor. The space is interestingly located within the old town mall but you can access it from outside. Probably not the most convenient location if you aren't hanging at the mall, but other than that a good coffee shop.

Iced Chai and Vanilla Latte

This might be the best chai I've ever had! Latte was also great with adorable art! We loved the fidget toys and the barista was great!

First time here and the servers were super nice and helpful! I got a customized Lavender Caramilla (hot) and you could taste the Lavender and the Caramel flavor. Yummy and comforting like a warm hug in a cup. The ambiance was cozy. Also got the bacon and egg burrito and got some hot sauce for it. You can taste the bacon and lots of eggs :) Now all we need is wine as an after-work chill out place :-)

Tucked away is Lighthouse Coffee and the service, just like the coffee, was phenomenal. Cute environment, & very clean. My coffee was rich with flavor, & not too sweet.

The best coffee you'll find! Great spot, great environment! Perfect for to go or hanging around. Amazing owners!

The ordering bar

While I've been to their other locations in sparks this is my first at the Reno Town Mall location. Nice music, decorated well and a close location to Atlantis and the Convention Center. While the mall is quite dated and empty, this coffee shop is the best retail establishment here. I would go to this mall just for a drink at Lighthouse. The staff is friendly, there are plenty of seats, and bright lighting. My favorite is the chai tea (best in town). They are well known in the area for their in-house roasted coffee. The coffee is a mid balance of roast, and always satisfies. They also have a moderate selection of breakfast items and pastries. If you are in this area of Reno on south Virginia st, and want to try something different than the sea of national chains like Starbucks and others, come into this cute local coffee shop. It's easy to access with its own side entrance yet connected to the mall. Right next to round table pizza. I wish there were more local coffee options like this in this area of Reno.

Incredible coffee, cute and quaint atmosphere, sweet owner! Highly recommend a visit when you fly in

This time she had duck breast and for me the fettuccini carbonara. Fresh bread and a glass of Barbera Vietti completed the main course. Each item is made with such care that the meal will seem like a special occasion. Apparently each day is a special occasion in the kitchen at TKT. The fettuccini was the best I ever had. The carbonara was rich and meaty and the Parmesan set it off perfectly. Her duck breast was a large appetizer with a rich sauce. Then there were the desserts, panna cotta with berries and mocha bliss, a brownie with ice cream. Both fantastic! The small restaurant foot print adds a feeling of an intimate experience.

It's like a San Francisco bistro. I will say however, they do have a lot of seating in a very small space so it gets a bit noisy. We split a house salad, which was quite tasty. The lettuce was quite fresh as were the vegetables. For dinner, I had the papparadelle & burrata brisket in a spicy tomato sauce. The pasta seemed to be homemade and the brisket had a nice heat to it. It was flavorful and delicious. The service was also very good. Our server checked back on us several times to see if we needed anything and to make sure our water glasses were filled. It was a very nice meal. I will certainly go back!

The porky ribs have potential but It was too lightly drizzled when it needed to be drowned in that sweet and tangy sauce. It was also cooked rather dry on the exterior but the interior was nicely juicy and tender. The bulgogi bowl was actually spicy pork instead of beef. It wasn't that bad, but it wasn't that great either. The tofu soup was solid. It hit all the right spots and was comfort food personified. Enjoyed it quite a bit. Overall, I am sure there are other items that might hit the spot and I would love to return and try a selection of entrees another time. Service was definitely top notch, Harry was the absolute best!

I have a great appreciation for the simple, yet varied menu that also provides multiple vegetarian options for my partner. This time around we went with the Cherrypicker, the Verde, and the Brasare. The Verde without chicken came very close to filling the hole that has been left in our heart with the Grasshopper not on the menu currently. The Cherrypicker is one of our go to hits and never disappoints. And this was the first time I've tried the Brasare and the classic combo of pork and apple was delectable. Colleen is our favorite server in the world and we are so happy to have her every time we swing by for dinner. She is a pleasure to be around and elevates the whole experience.

The inside and outside was literally crowded with people. So, I came again yesterday night for it again. We came at 4:30 ish, and it was not too busy. Some guests here and there, but overall really quiet. We get a small ceasar salad, a fig + pig pizza, marinara pasta, and the bisciamella pasta with chicken. The ceasar salad was great. The dressing was really light, so it was a clean and refreshing appetizer. Perfect to prep your palette. Totally not sharing size, though. The fig + pig pizza was my absolute favorite! I'm usually not a big fan of arugula, so being served a pizza with argula covered all over it was not a reassuring sight. Surprisingly, it was actually really good! It was probably because of the balsamic! This dish was my favorite out of the four. I absolutely loved loved LOVED the subtle sweetness of the fig spread. The fig spread worked like magic with the parmesan, and it tasted like a snack on the crunchy crust. Totally heaven in a bite. It was so good, I had three slices. The two pastas were pretty bland to me, and they came in a small portions. I don't have much comments on it, either that the marinara doesn't have enough meat. The food came really quickly, and I loved the vibe of the interior. There's something so casual and chill about the place that gives laid-back vibes. The staff were really fun, though I didn't catch any names. They were all open to small talk and all friendly and bubbly. PS! A staff member told me that pizzas and wines are at a cheaper price any time before 5 o'clock!

Before you go in, there is signs that says expect a 20 minute wait or more for a burger. If that is an issue for you, this isn't the spot for you. I've gone here a few times. The most recent time with my parents and aunt. I was a bit skeptical taking them to a dive bar for a burger since I wasn't sure how they would react to it. I didn't know until after the meal that they had a whole back section that would have been a lot better of an experience for them. They have a lot of tables and room back there whereas the front is either a bar, one table, or more a a lounge set up. There is also a outdoor area, but it had been a bit windy and sprinkling throughout the day so that isn't an option. I've done the Frenchified burger and the chile burger. Both times i opted for the fries over the chips and feel like I need to try the chips. Burger comes with two patties, a great bun, than the rest is up to you on which you choose. The fries are what I would consider shoe string fries, but maybe slightly thicker. I'm usually not a fan of shoestring fries, but I polished them off easily both times. My parents and aunt are harder to please. They like ingredients that speak for themselves and don't like too much sauces. All 3 of them really enjoyed it and I'm sure they will all be back. They have been looking for a good burger in Reno and I think this was it for them.

We ordered off of their specials which were dozen oysters and Hamachi Crudo, and of course, their famous kale Caesar salad. The cashier was very friendly and even offered to make one of these special cocktails I ordered into a spritz with Prosecco, which was a great call. It didn't take long before we were served and we were over the moon with the taste of everything!

The portions were generous with plenty of leftovers to pack up in takeout boxes for enjoying for another day. My favorite three were the ahi tuna, the black cod and the brilliant asian/french mash up of red Bean Creme Brulee. I also need to mention, I loved the lamb tenderloin. I am not a big lamb fan, but this New Zealand lamb was tender and non-gamey. The owners did an outstanding job of timing the dishes and engaging with our group while also taking care of other diners including non event patrons getting getting take-out and inhouse menu dining. The space is very small, but even with and almost full house, it didn't feel cramped.

To start, you can't go wrong with the enthusiastic welcome we always receive. Then quickly seated and wine poured. The 2026 CNY menu was fabulous, with some great surprises. The ahi tartare portion anywhere else would have been a shareable appetizer. But each person was served a large portion of delicious fresh ahi. Mmmm this course and a glass of wine could be dinner alone any other evening. The soft creamy rich egg custard was hidden under a thick seafood gravy. I really enjoyed this unique dish. The miso black cod is always flaky and delicious. And the crab fried rice it's nestled on also never disappoints. The rich New Zealand stir fried lamb and shiitake mushrooms over pea shoots was a fabulous hearty dish on this chilly March evening. The braised short ribs were so tender no knife was needed, they flaked apart with the fork. And the e mein noodles were perfectly al dente. The dinner wrapped up with a crème brûlée that only Kwok's could pull off - red bean. Creamy smooth. Not overwhelming. The perfect burnt sugar layer on top. The regular menu is just as delicious. Small inside seating area, so recommend always make a reservation. In the summer there's a fabulous patio area out front. Limited street parking.
