    Veggie Reggie and coffee.
    Melanie C.

    I visited Pine State a few months ago - can't believe I never finished my review! I was in town for a conference, and that meant I had a chance to check out the food scene in Downtown Reno! Treated myself to a slow morning and took a short, pleasurable ramble over to Pine State from the Renaissance. It was early, just after opening time, and there was only one other person dining in - so grabbing a table was super easy. Pine State hails from Oregon originally, and the space feels like Portland or NorCal transported to Nevada. Cool, hip and funky. I was excited to have a chance to try the Veggie Reggie, being a vegetarian, biscuits and gravy a usually off limits for me. This one features a vegan breakfast patty, soy bacon, and Tillamook cheddar topped with shiitake mushroom gravy - so it was on! The Reggie came out quickly and looked amazing! Huge and oh-so decadent. I got there right at opening and I think the staff were still getting into the swing of the day, because my gravy was pretty cold, which was a disappointment - and probably muted the flavor a bit. I also appreciated the early am fine cup of coffee.

    Pine state Biscuits is worth the stop it you're in area!! I got the shrimp and grits and it did not disappoint. My wife and family got the Reggie, which they demolished so I'm assuming it was delicious. The biscuit itself is soft and fluffy and pairing it with their strawberry jam was perfect. It was busy but the staff were very efficient and pleasant.

    The Reggie!  Nothing else compares!!

    Back again after a decade while headed up to South Lake Tahoe. This is the greatest most delicious invention of the 21st Century. THE REGGIE is AMAZING and the sausage gravy is hearty, slightly sweet, and so delicious! Thank you for being so great with great consistency! Wish we had a location in Scottsdale! Super friendly and wonderful service each and every time. Visit their original locations in Portland- super cool vibe!

    Lean brisket, eggs, tangy braised greens, and biscuit
    Gil S.

    Nice to have a place that mixes it up a bit with some home-style cooking. I got their new breakfast/brunch special, which came with a biscuit, a protein, two eggs, and a side. They did my over-medium eggs perfectly, and the brisket was nice and smoky and also surprisingly lean. The braised greens on the side surprised me a little with the flavor at first--I thought it was a bit too salty, but the tang seemed to come from like a vinegar flavor or something, and it kind of grew on me. Went pretty well with the other parts of the meal. I have to admit I was a little surprised the biscuit was a bit dense and dry--still tasted fresh/made, just a bit off in terms of size and taste compared to the rest of the stuff on the plate. We also got the beignets, which came with a nice bourbon sauce, but sadly a few of them weren't cooked all the way through. The interior was very bright (lots of windows) and clean, and the service team behind the counter was very pleasant. Also, I thought the price was fantastic for the special--like $14.95-for a very satisfying and overall well-made meal. We'll be back to try other stuff on the menu.

    One of my wife and I's go-to for a solid, delicious meal when we're stay-cationing in Reno. Service is sometimes lukewarm depending who's there, but on our last few visits it's been stellar. Seats can be hard to come by, but never impossible in my experience. Brunch is our favorite.

    We came here early Saturday morning and decided to grab a table outside after we ordered since it was a beautiful day. All the staff are very friendly amd welcoming. I went with the McIsley chicken that came with pickles and stone ground mustard all between a fresh baked biscuit. The biscuit itself was quite fluffy and tasty. The fried chicken breast was juicy and overall was a good sandwich. I would get it again without the stone ground mustard however. It has a very unique taste and it just wasn't for me. The Shrimp and Grits my wife had was some of the best we've ever had. It was our first time trying a version that included sautéed mushrooms which I thought was a nice touch. She also got fried green tomatoes, but wasn't a fan of those as the batter overwhelmed the tomatoes. This is a great option for breakfast and I would definitely come back for the food and the chill vibes.

    Traveled to Reno from Genoa to bring my toddler to the Discovery museum. I was hungry for lunch and wanted to see what great places Reno had to offer. There were several places listed close by via Google, but I saw that Pine State was a 4 min walk from the museum. I'm so glad I chose to come here. Who knew Reno would have some amazing southern food?! It's a small spot with limited outdoor seating and minimal indoor seating with approximately 5-6 four tops, about the same amount of deuces, and 2 booths in the back for larger parties. You place your order at the register and they assign you a table. They do bring your food to the table, but you are expected to bus your own table. Their menu selection is huge from all their biscuit sandwiches they offer to special southern dishes to desserts and pastries. As odd as it sounds you'd think I had ordered a biscuit item, but instead I ordered: - Shrimp & Grits - Blueberry Cornmeal Pancake - Peach Cobbler Pop-Tart - Arnold Palmer Every single item I ordered was DELICIOUS!! The shrimp & grits were so tasty with a mushroom bacon gravy. I've had some of the best shrimp & grits in Atlanta, and this one comes close. Their cornmeal pancake was also delicious. My 1 1/2 yr old son pretty much ate the entire thing himself (I only had a few bites to try it) and it was probably 7.5-8" wide. It's served with butter and maple syrup. But their syrup is so thick like they reduced it down which gave it this delicious subtle molasses flavor. Ugh! My mouth is watering typing this. Last, but not least, the peach cobbler pop tart topped with an oat streusel and what looked like, marshmallow fluff. The pastry itself was so good. Flaky and buttery - you could tell their pastries are made from scratch in-house. The pastry had the proper amount of filling with lots of cinnamon peach flavor. I was so full that I only ate a third of it and brought the rest home. I regret not getting a biscuit to-go just to try. If their non-biscuit items were so delicious, I can only imagine how good their biscuits are. This place is worth the 50 minute drive for me. I would absolutely come again to try more items. You must give it a try.

    Moneyball Double Down
    Brandon W.

    Random treat on Sunday. Wife wants to go to Pine State Biscuits...we go to Pine State Biscuits. Biscuits smothered in your choice a mushroom or sausage gravy. Think about this, where else can you get Brisket for breakfast?!? We enjoyed some wonderfully made scrambled eggs, collard greens and hash browns. The customer service is quick, the cashier and hosts are polite. Self bussing tables make for easy work. Whether indoor or outdoor, you'll enjoy the sounds of people enjoying their meal while outside, sure maybe a little bit of traffic too. Try their Diner Plate Special which is a combination of a biscuit, gravy, choice of sauce and 2 sides or The Money Ball Double Down which was an over easy egg over two biscuits and gravy. A great breakfast or brunch experience solo or with your family! I can't wait to go back and try their shrimp and grits!

    BBQ Biscuit
    Jill C.

    Such a great place - continues to have biscuits to die for. Service was super fast. My tip is to go for lunch instead of breakfast as the line isn't nearly as long and seating is a breeze. I'd love to see tator tots or potato hash instead of fries - the fries are mid but everything else is over the top incredible so it all balances out!

    Hash Browns with onions, mushrooms and cheese and a sausage patty.
    Karen A.

    In order to sit you order first. Good biscuit and the mushroom gravy was really good. The hash brown plate was good I enjoyed the onions and mushrooms and hash browns were extra crispy. The sausage patty was a bit dry . My friend had the Spicy Pimento Chicken Sandwich , it was spicy enough and had a lot of acidity. They enjoyed it. Nice spot in Reno.

    Biscuits with both gravies
    Wana L.

    Wow the biscuits and gravy were absolutely delightful! The sausage gravy had a good amount of sausage and weren't too salty. The cashier suggested I try both gravies, and I'm glad I did. The biscuits are definitely the best part of the dish, they were soft, moist and chewy. They were so delicious I offered some to our entire table so everyone could try them. Husband had the blueberry pancakes. The portions here are generous! Be sure to order first, and then grab a table. Food comes out quickly and service was great. Can't wait to eat here again on our next trip to Reno. Btw, parking is all on the street. But it wasn't too hard to find a spot.

    Delicious biscuits and gravy fresh OJ and a nice patio for outdoor dining. Staff was friendly and the restaurant was clean.

    Reggie Deluxe cut in 1/2,  Fried chicken, bacon , fried eegg, cheddar cheese and sausage gravy
    Dan H.

    If you have not hit this gem for Breakfast when in Reno, your loss. Its a cozy little place thats always busy, if you go, bring your wallet, and your appetite , while the prices skew towards upscale, the portions and flavors are even bigger. The Brisket Biscuit is usually my goto, but we came later in day and Brisket was out, so I gave the Reggie Deluxe a spin. Food came out quick, and it was fantastic. Large Fresh viscuit with a large piece of fried chicken, a fried egg and cheddar cheese with sausage gravy. Everything was fresh & flavored well, word bote, the gravy is on the sweeter side but still great. The hash browns were crisp(just how I love them), and the Grits with Honey Butter and cheese were probably my favorite of all the bites.

    Are dogs allowed at the tables outside?

    Yes. When you sit outside, you will be right next to the public sidewalk so your pup can sit right next to you!

    Is there free wifi?

    They do not unfortunately

    As soon as they open on a weekday, is there a line? Trying to figure out when to get there. Thanks!

    Not always during the week.... but it builds momentum fairly quickly!

    A friend came home from service for the holidays and I'd like to sit down and catch up. Are they offering sit-down dining right now?

    Should be able to sit but call ahead most are not allowing "walk in" business need RESV.

Well as luck would have it on a Tuesday night. I was looking for a place to eat, and they were open. I've missed out on this gem for many years. The hostess and the wait staff were amazingly polite and friendly. At 7:30 pm on a Tuesday it was near empty and quiet. The steak sandwich was excellently done, perfectly to the request of medium. The onion rings were crisp and juicy. The potato and cheese soup was thick, creamy and just really brought the feeling of fall is coming with its flavors and warmth. A Great Basin Icky paired well with the meal, and it was a pleasant walk home with a very full belly, a deep warmth and a pleasant dining experience. Don't miss a chance to visit PJs. Well worth the wait or finding a time when seats are available.

PJ's is a just a good ol'fashioned diner and I mean this in the best way possible. The restaurant has a comfortable, rustic feeling and the staff are warm and welcoming. Like you came to their home for a meal. My wife and I split the French Toast Platter, which was 2 slices of French Toast, eggs and we ordered the link sausage. The French Toast was solid. Just good basic French Toast. Nothing bougie, just good French Toast. The eggs were eggs but the sausage was quite good. Rich with flavor. The coffee, while unusually expensive for a dinner, was just meh. Nothing special nor nothing terrible. If you are looking for a good, warm, welcoming place for diner food, PJ's just might be the place.

    Amazing food and great prices!…read more I have seen this place pop up on my Yelp account many times as I've been searching for places to try. I brought it up to my sister and she also said she had been wanting to go especially since she was told they have gluten free options so we decided to pop in for lunch. We went on a Sunday around 2:45 and it wasn't super busy so we were able to get a table right away. We were immediately brought water and menus. There was the regular menu, happy hour and brunch. Brunch is served on Saturday and Sunday until 3. We both tried the blackberry mule mocktail which was good but tasted quite heavy on the ginger beer. I couldn't decide between the breakfast pizza and poutine fries so I got both. The poutine fries were on the happy hour menu during that time. The breakfast pizza was quite large and fennels meant for at least two people but it was nice and hot and cheesy and I loved the addition of the egg but wish it came with more than one. It also needed a sauce of some kind, ranch or salsa or even hot honey. The poutine fries were delicious! I got it with mushroom gravy and haven't been able to stop thinking about them. I was unable to try the stuffed avocado and Baja bowl that my sisters ordered due to my avocado allergy but she really enjoyed it. The service was prompt and our waitress was really nice. The inside was so cute and you do have the option to sit outside. Can't wait to back and bring my husband, the menu has so much I want to try!

    I made a to-go order. I ordered the Cubano with fries, the nachos, and the brownie…read more Cubano: 8/10 Fries: 9/10 Tortilla Chips: 4/10 Nachos: 6/10 Brownie: 7/10 The cubano was a bit too salty for my liking. It was due to the seasoning. However, it was packed with a variety of flavors. It wasn't dry and loose, which is what I have encountered at a few other places. All in all, there was so much in it that it was difficult to evaluate what I was eating, which is a good thing. It means I'll have it again :). It functioned as a whole rather than as separated ingredients to give a complex flavor profile, which I appreciated. The fries were seasoned beautifully. Very savory. I enjoyed them. Cooked wonderfully as well. The tortilla chips in the nachos.. I don't know if they were made there or not, but they gave the impression of being store-bought. The quality was not great. The nachos themselves... plenty of ingredients that you can mix together, but the ingredients weren't like a complete package. They were like a pile of separate things. I expect a well-balanced mixture of ingredients. The layer of queso was below while the avocado was clumped up at the top. The ingredients separately were quite bland. I wouldn't have this again. The brownie was better than a flourless chocolate torte and quite large. I enjoyed it, though I would say that it's not as good as a more standard brownie. I wouldn't have this again.
