Mo's by the River is one of Reno's hidden gems. From the moment you arrive, Mo and Glen make you feel like family. Their warmth and genuine hospitality create the kind of atmosphere that keeps you coming back. Their quaint outdoor patio by the river is the perfect place to unwind with a glass of wine. It's peaceful, charming, and feels like you've stumbled upon a little escape right in the middle of Reno. If you're looking for a place to slow down, enjoy a thoughtfully selected glass of wine, and be welcomed by people who truly care about their guests, this is it. Mo and Glen have created something really special, and it shows in every interaction. I can't recommend Mo's by the River enough. It is one of those places that leaves you smiling long after you leave. read more

Nice little wine bar. In the heat of the summer misters would be a nice addition to help keep the patio and guests a bit more comfortable. Sangria might be another great offering as a chilled drink during hot afternoons. read more

We love Mo's by the river. Casual environment but very cute. They do have shade but sometimes in the afternoon the sun can be burning; I personally love the heat, but would recommend sunnies, hat and hand sunscreen. You can bring outside food to pair with the great wine selection. Mo is amazing and gives great wine recommendations. 10/10 can't recommend enough. read more

What a lovely little unexpected spot to find. We went after dinner and post UNR move in. Just us parental adults. As per the usual in the evening, it was quite windy, but the patio was still a wonderful place to be. We met the owner and were able to wring some special recommendations around Reno from her. She is so welcoming and lovely. Really adored talking to her. The wine here is fabulous. We drank both the Prosecco and the Italian White. Both were delicious. I love that they serve sustainable and organic wines when possible. The selection is really good. Hubs had beer, which was also a nice selection and he was pleased. The patio is pretty and welcoming. And we were able to snag a table at seven on a Saturday. Be aware, they close pretty early unless your chatterbox like us and just don't stop talking to the owner. read more

We absolutely love Mom's By the River! Mo is the heart and soul of this gem--she's incredibly sweet, helpful, and truly passionate about wine. Every visit feels personal. She takes the time to go into great detail when selecting wines to share, explaining flavor profiles and offering thoughtful suggestions that always hit the mark. The seasonal summer opening makes it feel like a special treat every time we get to go. Last night we sat out on the patio, enjoying the warm evening air and sipping on a perfect glass of wine--it was the ideal date night for any wine lover. If you're in Reno during the summer, Mom's By the River is a must. Great wine, amazing atmosphere, and Mo makes it all unforgettable. read more

I've been wanting to come here for a while and didn't realize how many times I've driven by this area without seeing it! The winery itself is in a small house on the corner with the garage being converted into the bar area. There are a few barstools inside but most of the seating is outside on their cute patio! Despite a small indoor space, they still have a bathroom which I was glad to see. The location is about a block away from the river, so there's no river view but it's in a great location to stop when you're doing a stroll along the river. They allow you to bring food over to enjoy on their patio with a glass of wine. Their wine menu had several different types of wine to try, I wanted a Sauv Blanc and described what kind I usually like. They suggested two different types and I chose one from Spain. It was refreshing and I enjoyed it! My husband got a Chianti from Italy and he wasn't a fan, he usually loves Chiantis but said this one tasted more sour than usual. However, we both still really enjoyed hanging out here on the patio! Prices were pretty standard. The staff was friendly and easy to talk with. We had a baby with us and they allowed us to bring her in as well. Now that I know this place is here, I'll definitely come back when we are doing the riverwalk sometime soon! They also have some fun events they host, so I'd love to come back for one of those eventually! read more

Definitely qualifies as a hidden gem! It is located in a lovely old residential neighborhood near McKinley Center and the small commercial area that is the home to Hub Coffee, Dorinda's and Beaujolais. Mo and Glen are the owners and welcome you to their lovely patio - there is no indoor seating except for the teeny bar. They have an extensive wine list and are knowledgable about what they serve. Explain what you like - they will make a match to your preferences. Order by the glass or buy a bottle. They also sell wine for takeout by the bottle or you can order multiple bottles or a case. It is casual and laid-back. The perfect spot to meet up with friends and have a glass or two of good wine in a beautiful location. There is street parking in the neighborhood. They are also a block away from the large lot at McKinley Center. read more

Mo’s By The River - Vino Verde - Wine Bars Near Me - Reno, Nevada

I don't believe it. I thought I wrote my review for Mo's By the River. Today, I learned that I didn't. In any case, Mo's is a cute wine bar located in the middle of surburban Reno close to the Truckee River Walk. I was unable to check out their wine list but what we had (a couple glass of domestic red) was actually pretty good and priced right. Just admiring their set up, I made up my mind if the opportunity presents itself, I will hold an event at Mo's the next time I'm in the Reno area Thank You Mo's for a casual fun time... And we were in walking distance to our Air BnB and the Truckee River Walk..... so it only made sense to stop in at Mo's for a thirst quencher. read more

My favorite wine spot that is tucked away near the hub. The owners are so gracious and positive as are all the wonderful guests. The wine selection is affordable and amazing. Love their wine club and events. They will open Memorial Day weekend. You can order food in and all seating is outside by fire lamps or fire pit. They've even got a few blankets. This is my fave wine spot most every weekend. Don't tell too many because its a gem you'll want to share with close friends and will end up spending hours there. read more

Great California wine selection! The service and atmosphere great.... Will be back for sure

Five stars just doesn't seem like enough for Mo's By The River. The location, the owner, the decor, the WINE?!? All fabulous! A friend of mine and I were looking for a new spot to try and Yelp pointed us to Mo's. We had a lot of catching up to do, so we arrived right when they opened and got our pick of tables. We knew we'd be splitting a bottle and Mo herself offered up the perfect Sauvignon Blanc. It was a perfect summer wine and no sulphates! You can tell just how loved this place is. So many regulars showed up and would say hello like you were a dear friend. We spent over 2 hours here just chatting with others and sipping our wine. I love everything about this spot and will be back very soon! read more

A friend had suggested this place for a weekday get together. I have come down to the area for the Yelp Dorinda event but maybe this was not there back then. This place is like a garden oasis where if you have a good book and a drink you will be all set! It's very serene and they have decorated it like a secret garden. The owners shared that they live onsite and added on the bar to it, it was actually really cool. There was a bunch of red and white wines, as well as beer. I had asked if there was anything sweeter and was suggested a Elderberry Spritzer which tasted like Summer in a can. This place was great to soak up the sun, relax, and just visit. Definitely recommend, as they let you bring outside food or delivery in which was great! read more

Wandering the lovely Riverside neighborhood, we came upon Mo's By the River. A delightful family-owned and operated wine bar. My husband and I enjoy wines from all over the world, and were thrilled to see some of our favorite varieties at Mo's. We rarely see vinho verde from Portugal... and we were certainly able to enjoy it sitting outside on a mild, overcast Spring day. The best prices by glass in town, for wines you'll want to visit again and again! Thank you, Mo and Glen. read more

A lovely, welcoming, and relaxed place to hang out, Mo's feels like you're stopping in at your neighbors' house for wine, only you contribute to the wine as a collective. The owners are warm and seem genuinely happy to have you there, and the wine is high quality and chosen carefully. When we weren't sure which bottle to buy, we were presented with five different bottles and specifics about each one. After that, we sat out on the patio while Olive the dog and a sweet cat wandered through. I can't think of a better way to spend my Sunday afternoon, and I'll be a regular customer. read more

Mo’s By The River - New bottle line up - Wine Bars Near Me - Reno, Nevada

I came, I saw, I immediately joined the wine club. Mo and her husband Glen are the owners and the quaint little patio and wine bar is attached directly to their house. The rumor is that this place started as a way for them to just entertain some of their friends with wine events and now it has blossomed into something truly special. They're open for select hours Wednesday through Sunday (when they're not hosting private events) and also put on special events that go out to their wine club members before the general public. Their opetions are super unique and for the most part can't be found at other spots in Reno and they do a great job of matching wines to your tastes (and meals that you may have brought with you). Speaking of meals, they don't serve any food, however, they have partnerships with some local spots for discounted deliveries and also allow for anyone to bring in their own food. It makes for a great date night and provides lots of opportunities to make new friends if you're into that sort of thing throughout the evening. read more
