Came here with friends on a Saturday evening and it was pretty busy. Made a reservation beforehand so there wasn't a long wait to get seated. I never realized that they had the extra dining space in the center of the restaurant strip specifically for Rim. We were seated in the enclosed portion directly across from the Buffet. It had a nice decor to it with dimmed lighting but because it was enclosed, it was super noisy once it was packed with diners. A little difficult to enjoy conversations over a meal. Our server was great when it came to recommendations, friendliness, and taking our order. We ordered mojitos and a lychee lemon drop which were really good. They were delivered to our table right away but food took at least half an hour to arrive. My friends ordered sushi and green curry while I tried their Korean short ribs. We all enjoyed the food. The short ribs tasted pretty good, just not quite the same flavors as other Korean short ribs I've had elsewhere. read more

I came here with a group of 5 on a Friday night. We had set reservations, but we were running a bit behind so called and they were able to accommodate us for a little later of a time. We got there and they sat us in a nice booth. Fernando was our waiter and he was excellent. We ordered a few things and shared family style- 2 sushi rolls, ribs, honey Walnut shrimp, sweet and sour pork, green beans with chicken, etc. I forgot all about getting chow mein/chow fun - bc that was already a lot of food, but next time would want to try that. They had told the waiter it was my birthday and he brought out a special ube cheesecake as dessert with a lit candle. It was perfect! P.S. Some friends ordered beers and cocktail and they were good too! read more

I've tried this place several times and it just doesn't hit. Sushi is ok. Just ok, especially for the almost $50 AYCE price tag (which is only available at the sushi bar). Service is hard to come by. You'll have to wait 15-20 minutes for a drink refill. The lighting is also very dim. The item portions and quality are very different than most traditional sushi spots. Their miso soup for instance is HUGE. It's basically in a ramen bowl and lacks miso flavor. The sushi is very bland. Skip on the sashimi and raw fish. It's not fresh.The hand rolls are the only things worth eating. Salmon skin and spicy scallop ones are good. Come here at your own risk! read more

Celebrating Chinese New Year with my son and took advantage of the CNY menu and was very happy and satisfied. My son also ordered lobster fried rice and some sushi which both were delicious. It's been awhile since I've eaten here and I am impressed with the menu. Granted it has been about 7 years since the last time eating here for the only reason being there are other great restaurants here that compete. I loved the long life noodles and really loved the sea bass. Nicely spiced with scallions and ginger. Service was very fast. They were very busy on a Saturday night. We ate in the annexed area and it was pleasantly quieter. read more

My group decided to eat here since it's inside of GSR which an event we were going to was hosting so for ease of planning we made a reservation for this place. The main restaurant is tucked in a corner so there's not a lot of tables which is why they opened another section, across the way to accommodate bigger groups like mine. The restaurant itself was fine, decorated nicely and service was ok. I didn't think it was a crazy night but we didn't get checked on often which led us to not having any refilled water. The food wasn't great, I hate to say it. Seemed to be overpriced for what we got. The quality and taste was mid but the portions are generous. So don't set your expectations too high and I think you'll be fine. Also don't be fooled into upgrading your rice to fried rice. Multiple people in our group did upgrade and we had to share a small plate of fried rice. As opposed to keeping the steam rice where we each had our own portion. So overall thoughts, come here but know you're not getting stellar food and you're going to pay a premium for having the restaurant being conveniently located but it's nothing to rave about unfortunately. read more

So we have been here before, and they put us in some room away from the restaurant...and the food was just OK. We were here for a Saturday comp, and decided we would give this one more try...I am glad we did this. This time they put us in the main restaurant, and it was so much better! We ordered two big Sapporos to start...I thought these were fairly priced...we were not terribly hungry so we split an order of beef chow fun and asked for it spicy. This was very good and plenty of food for us. I thought the beef was plentiful and the dish was very tasty. Our server was very good and seemed to not be bothered by our small order, especially on a Saturday night. read more

Given the reviews I didn't expect much.... However I was very surprised at how good my Rim fried rice was and the price was very fair (24$) for not only a casino but the portion was shareable. The pork was a tad bit fatty and sweet but I loved the shrimp. I was with three girlfriends that preferred sushi and they ordered four rolls all of which they enjoyed. Golden gate, snow mountain, lion king, and mango tango. One sake which my friend said was just fine and one raspMary martini which I tried It wasn't bad. I saw them making some good looking virgin Mojitos with lavender in them. I wish I would have tried one. We sat at the bar outside the restaurant so no notes for inside. The two girls working in the Bar handled it well for as busy as it was for a country concert weekend and a volleyball tournament weekend. Food came out pretty fast. Locals discount. Gluten free items clearly marked (so helpful!!) I hope the rice tastes the same because I will be back for that. read more

Rim has been a staple in GSR for as long as I can remember though it's a struggle to understand why if the experience is consist with my own. Best aspect is that it's fairly well decorated, it's a clean aesthetic with a little Asian inspired flair. Unfortunately service can only be described as waiting. Every step of the dining process was more waiting than it was enjoying food or receiving menus/checks. I think it took about 2 hours to make it through a quick app and entree meal. Food was equally disappointing with the Kung Pao Chicken lacking any semblance of pow and hardly distinguishable from just corn syrup in taste and consistency. Shockingly the green beans were cooked excellently with a satisfying crunch but was accompanied with very gray beef. Overall it was too long and too much for too little experience. read more

This was our first time here with a group of four adults and two children (ages 10 and 7). The restaurant was very crowded on a weekend night, but we were able to get a reservation for 8 PM. Our table wasn't ready right away, and we were offered seats at the sushi bar, which we declined, so we waited a bit. I'm not a huge sushi fan compared to the rest of our group, so we didn't go for the unlimited sushi option--but it was absolutely worth it! We ordered a variety of dishes: the sashimi was fresh, the desserts were delicious ( Ube white chocolate cheese cake and mochi ice cream), and the service was top-notch. I even tried several sushi rolls though I forgot some of the names, and ended up liking them too. I added lots of pictures to capture everything. Overall, everything was great, and we had a wonderful experience. read more

Look it's the only Asian red shirt n the resort so you really don't have too many options. It's ok but not good.

"Asian fusion" is always scary, but I've got a sprained ankle and I'm stuck in the GSR Casino for better or for worse. I'm a "glass is half full guy, so let's start with: better: weirdly, the hamachi nigiri sushi was fresh (I knew I was taking a chance in the desert and was willing to back out based on smell). Unfortunately the cooked unagi and (no doubt frozen and Frankenstein'd) snow crab, smelled and tasted off. Also, even though I piled up a $120 tab including other cuisines (Mongolian Beef was some of the best I've ever had-hence the 3 stars), the waitress did not remove the offending sushi from my bill. She was very affable though and props to GSR to hiring a great company person. read more

Rim Asian Bistro is located at the High Sierra Casino in Reno. Nice ambiance, outstanding service and even better food. A versatile menu, Chinese food along with a great choice of sushi. The best Chinese food I've ever had. A must dinning experience. read more

We went here for our Christmas dinner. It is our tradition to have Chinese food on the holiday. We made a reservation. When we got there, there was not many people. We were seated quickly. Sandra was our server. The is very efficient and knows the e menu. We ordered the appetizer platter and the house salad. It came out quickly. Both were very tasty. For the entrees we ordered beef and asparagus, chicken chow mein, and honey walnut shrimp. Everything was so good. There wasn't much left over, which is a good sign! Side note: locals get 20% discount. Sorry no pictures :-) read more

I've been to Rim Asian Bistro a few times now, and somehow it just gets better every visit. A buddy was in town for a couple of nights and wanted sushi, and I knew the only place that would be a guaranteed hit was Rim. We opted for the "all you can eat" bar seating, where a sushi chef works right in front of you and makes anything you request. We were lucky enough to sit with Chef Rose, and she made the entire experience unforgettable. I let her know about my shrimp allergy and she immediately took care of everything--no worries at all. This time I decided not to order from the menu and instead told her a few things I like, then gave her full creative freedom. She absolutely delivered. Every dish she crafted was fresh, delicious, and full of fun surprises. Another thing I love about Rim is how clean, welcoming, and enjoyable the ambiance is. The restaurant feels well cared for, comfortable, and relaxing--perfect for settling in and enjoying great food and conversation. Combined with the energy at the sushi bar, it makes the whole experience even better. Beyond the food and the setting, the conversation made the meal truly memorable. Chef Rose is not only incredibly talented, but also warm, engaging, and just a joy to talk with. We walked away full, happy, and already talking about when we'll be back. If you want a great meal, a clean and enjoyable atmosphere, and a memorable experience, Rim Asian Bistro--especially with Chef Rose behind the counter--is the place to go. read more

Food was Ok, not very exciting compared to the price. Service was fast but they missed bringing ginger and small bowls for mixing soy sauce and wasabi. We received our sushi plates and wondered if they donot serve it. When we asked the server apologized and brought it. Good thing about ordering Mochi ice cream is that you get multiple flavors- mango, strawberry and chocolate. They were out of coconut chocolate parfait so we ordered Ube white Chocolate cheesecake. It was alright. Ambiance was good with dim light and beautiful light pendants hanging from the ceiling. This place is good for eating sushi, if either you are staying at GSR or at the casino and do not want to drive up to a different location for food. read more

Alexander was our amazing server. He was friendly, attentive, approachable and respectful. He checked up on us and recommended us some things on the menu. The general chicken was cooked to perfection. There was a perfect meat to batter ratio and the sauce was delicious. The Rim beef chow fun was also our favorite. The beef was tender and flavorful. Ambiance was quiet and relaxing - lights were dim and music was low. Highly recommended - food was amazing and staffs are fantastic read more

I think this place is pretty average compared to all the other sushi places Reno has to offer. It wasn't bad, but nothing really stood out to me. For $41, you can definitely have a better experience at another place with more variety and better tasting fish. They only offered all you can eat at the sushi bar (no tables) and it's not available on Friday or Saturdays. Having a party of 5 made it hard to have a conversation when sitting at the bar. read more

Eaten here before. Tried to sit for the AYCE Sushi for $42.00 even for mediocre food this seems like a decent deal to fill up on but they have limited seating at the sushi bar and it was full. I asked to wait for a seat, they aid no, it was only 7:30 pm, WTH? Had to sit in the regular bar at the front. We got good service from the friendly bartender and food came pretty quickly but out of 4 items only the papaya salad with shrimp was any good. The rest were very small portions and mediocre at best for an expensive price. I have yet to find a decent restaurant in this casino. read more

Flavor for each food plate or bowl is very authentic and tasty. However the Korean bbq ribs were not that meaty. Too much fat around the meat. Chow main was ok, I didn't take a picture because I took it to go. It just, I don't know the long wait to get a waitress was a very long wait. Soups are really good read more

I had the pleasure of visiting this restaurant for the second time in recent months. The first visit was amazing, my wife, and best friend sat in the restaurant during that visit. The food and service was spectacular. This most recent visit was yesterday 11/21/25 and my buddy and I sat at the sushi counter to enjoy the AYCE menu. Our sushi chef was Rose, she was absolutely amazing, engaged with us, and very attentive. Every order we made was amazing, the fish was very fresh and delicious. We made a point of requesting the manager to come over and have a discussion on our experience. We shared how wonderful the food and Rose was as our chef. My wife and I live in the Bay Area, but we travel to Reno every few months for a long weekend getaway. We will be making this restaurant as must stop each trip. read more

Not my initial choice to round out our two week "Asian invasion", but a reliable friend vouches for them. So here we are and btw, the friend was correct. We called and made reservations a week ago. Once we arrived I realized we were here three years ago before a Doughtry concert. One of the best meals we've had in Reno. No surprise that today was exceptional. Mrs. E.'s favourite dish is the Garlic Green beans. Couple that with the Chicken with Spicy Garlic sauce, she's sleeping in the other room tonight. I insist on the Roasted Peking Duck with the Hoisin. The Edamame is good, the baked mussels are much better. I'm no expert on Mongolian, but I feel this is the best tasting we've had in the area. While Rim Asian Bistro may seem pricy, the flavours, presentation and all around experience justify the expense. 01/25 read more

Ambiance is important to me when dining out so honestly this is the second time I've had reservations for a GSR restaurant only to be seated in the overflow room. This room has zero character and snake skin chairs that make my skin crawl. First it was for Charlie Palmer and now for Rim. It's very disappointing considering the price you'll pay to dine at these places. Now for the drinks they're good but remember if you order a shot it will be a double. Sushi is ok nothing outstanding and we didn't even finish one of the rolls because the quality was pretty basic bordering on grocery store sushi which some stores have upped their game but they aren't charging $21-25 per roll like Rim is. I'm wary to make any more reservations at GSR for fear I'll end up in an overflow room once again. Parking also is getting a bit tight for GSR given they started construction on the arena so plan ahead so you have time to get to any shows or reservations. Valet is available but prices are never posted. read more

If you're staying at the Grand Sierra Resort, this is the place to eat. We've been at the hotel for a few conventions, and this is where we always end up. We walk around and see which other places there are to eat and then we head to Rim. Very nice atmosphere. The workers from a bus boy up to their general manager are all friendly and efficient. They have a bar up front by their hostess desk, a regular restaurant seating area, and a generous overflow just across from the front entrance. They have a simple but extensive menu with appetizers, entrees, sushi and tempura selections, sides, desserts, and plenty of drinks. My go to for dinner is their Sweet and Sour Chicken. Served with a generous helping of steamed rice. Very good serving size and full of flavor. I usually get some of it to go for another meal later. My wife usually gets one of their noodle salads. The last couple of visits we were helped by Monica who did a fantastic job of helping our parties of 3 and then of 5. Can't go wrong with Rim on your next visit to GSR. read more

Located in the Grand Sierra in Reno. We came down to have the All You Can Eat Buffet $43.99 but we were too close to 8:00 pm which was the last seating. Fortunately there were two seats at the bar. *Note to self, make a reservation if you want to do the All You Can Eat Buffett. We were fortunate to have Michelle, although I think she was a humanoid robot. She was nice, efficient, and never let us feel ignored. She moves fast and works like 3 people. Michelle was working with a new employee who made a mistake and Michelle graciously told the employee and solved the mistake without a fuss from anyone. I took my Pad Thai leftovers home. It is on the sweeter side so was great for breakfast. To be honest, I thought the Hamachi Roll was small but the whole thing fit nicely in my mouth and I could still talk. The flavors were yummy. Please correct me, if I'm wrong, but I was pretty sure we had the Papaya Salad with Shrimp here. I double checked the menu but didn't see it...anyway the salad was beautiful. Tasted like a traditional Papaya Salad. I had a glass of the Cab Federalist. I was really happy, very berry and smooth ending. I often have Justin so it was a nice change and I think retail is only $20 for a bottle! The ambiance at the bar is a little noisy but it also makes a fun people watching spot. Next time we will do the All You Can Eat! read more

I'm hoping the food is better than the take out service. Perhaps, Jessica experienced a long day. Perhaps, the March Madness crowd overwhelmed her, I'm sure not. But, she was more concerned about standing over in the corner eating then taking my order.

this is beginning to become a rant sesson on my reno trip. this place start off bad. i was at the reception and simply had one finger up to indicate one and the reception dude was like giving me attitude. i had my index finger up... just fyi i just went to the bar and skip the reception. order the rim sushi platter for $35. it was 8 pieces of sushi with cucumber maki.... wow, this for $35. i was really shock. too bad i didnt take a photo. I get better sushi from osaka supermarket for cheaper. i know u pay double vs supermarket. but, in this case, the supermarket sushi is better@!! i can get a full on plate of sushi with uni as well for $35 at osaka... $35 + 15 for beer. another $50 bucks down the drain.... i did notice ayce for $50, should have just done that as the rolls my neighbor at the bar order did look alot better then what i got.... anyways, another subpar meal... that's 2 for 2 in this hotel... should i even review the hotel. read more

I went to GSR with the family for a basketball tournament at the end of May. We have gone to GSR many times and this is our second time trying Rim. I wanted to give them a second chance but again, it was a waste of money. I made reservations and we got sat right behind the hosts table when the whole restaurant was empty. I felt like they wanted to hide us in a corner because we had a kid. Then we didn't get water or the wine we ordered. Poor service and it was truly disappointing. We won't be back. read more

Expectations were pretty high going into this place. Maybe that's why we were a bit more disappointed. Walking in, the restaurant had a nice vibe and pretty cool decorations. Staff seemed pretty friendly, however, the service wasn't that great. Our server got distracted easily, a bit slow, and messed up on our order. Granted she had a lot going on.... Food was okay. The only thing we liked and thought was actually good was the hamachi nigiri. It was fresh, the cut was thick, and the rice to fish ratio was great. Our soup took forever to come out and we almost left without eating the soup. The soup came out as we were about to ask for the check but....it wasn't worth the wait. We only ordered few items and kept the menu just in case we wanted to order more food, but after having to wait and tasting the food, we decided not to. We were celebrating two birthdays, so we tried two different dessert, and that was pretty good, but needless to say, we probably won't be going back. We left unsatisfied, disappointed, and hungry. read more

I made reservations using Open Table and we were seated promptly upon our arrival. The ambiance was fine. Nothing extraordinary as we were seated in the area that is not part of their main dining room. It was still pleasant and nothing to complain about. Our waitress was very nice and engaging which is always refreshing to have a server who is happy and good at their job. She was helpful with explaining and answering our questions regarding our sushi selections. We also ordered the sampler appetizer to start with and it was great. It came out quickly and it was piping hot with a tasty dipping sauce. We ordered several sushi rolls to share and we were not disappointed. I would totally return again. read more

My husband and I have dined at Rim over 10++ years and order the same entrees. The food and service were alway good and would rate 5-Stars in the past. I'm surprised I haven't reviewed RIM.... Oops! Today's dinner experience was terrible. Let me explain... and apologize for the long review... I made dinner reservations through OPEN TABLE and arrived on time. My husband and I were seated by a nearby table. The bus boy saw that I had a dog and brought over a a bowl of water. FYI - she's a service animal. I thought that was a very kind gesture of him. Our waitress came over promptly and took our order. So far, the evening was going well. Surprisingly the restaurant wasn't busy at all on a Friday night. While we were waiting for our food, one of the restaurant's managers came over and took the bowl of water away from my dog. I didn't understand what he said to me because it was loud in the casino. I thought that was kinda rude. It bothered me since I never asked for the water in the first place. I do carry a water bottle for my dog. Our dinner arrived. We ordered Mongolian Beef with fried rice (which is an up-charge of $6.00) and Garlic Green beans with fried rice. Before, I critique the food. I noticed my husband's beer never arrived. I flagged down our waitress and asked her "where is his beer." She replied "oh, let me go check and said "do you still want it?" She had attitude like it was our fault that she forgot his beer. My husband responded "never mind I don't want the beer. " A few minutes later, she returned to our table and said "here's your beer and it's free." Now the food experience... the Mongolian beef arrived luke warm and so did the green beans. We were both were hungry and didn't say anything. My piece of beef was very chewy and it was cut into big, chunky slice. The pieces were literally over 2"-3" each. It was the size of our serving spoon. --see photo. After two bites.. I gave up chewing. The green beans were also Luke warm and cooked in the wrong sauce. It was suppose to be GARLIC green beans... instead it was cooked in black bean sauce. The fried rice was bland and dry. The size portion was SO SMALL it shocked us since it was an up-charge, $6 each x 2 = $12.00. I should have ordered the combination fried rice, which we normally do. Moments later, I flagged down the manager. Yes, the same one that took away my dog's water bowl. LOL... His name was Christian the PM General Manager. I wanted to give him feedback of my experience. I thought perhaps RIM had changed ownership. But, it wasn't the case. After we spoke and I showed him the size of the beef, he comped my Mongolian Beef and offered a knife to cut into the meat. LOL!!! I declined the knife offer because it wasn't worth it. When the bill arrived, I told our waitress that I would like to use my DINING CREDIT of $20 to pay the bill. It turns out when I checked on my GSR rewards account, the waitress processed $20 COMP on my account. UGH!!! OMG!!! SERIOUSLY!!! One more thing... when I got to my hotel room and checked my emails... I received a notice from Open Table that RIM cancelled my reservation. WTH... I guess I'm not getting my OPEN TABLE points ... shaking my head. I felt robbed by the whole experience. Not sure if we will return again. My husband and I left RIM disappointed and hungry. read more
