I was doing a little scenic drive through Verdi, on my way to Donner Memorial State Park when I decided to check out some restaurants on Yelp. I found some restaurants that were rated highly on Yelp so I decided to go to Sasquatch Tavern and Grill. I ordered the English Fish & Chips to go. The meal included some delicious cold slaw. I had a little picnic with my little dog, Charlie at The California State Park of Donner Memorial and I was amazed at how delicious and authentically traditional & prepared the Old English battered fish with Old English Chips (French Fried Potatoes with Vinegar) tasted! I grew up in San Francisco and trust and believe, I have enjoyed many different cultures of authentic cuisines. This Tavern & Grill really impressed me! The service was very cordial, efficient and friendly, a few different people engaged with me about places to go see, in Verdi, such as parks and about the historic town of Verdi. I hope that my review will help others to discover a hidden gem in a small, beautiful town, nestled in the foothills of The Sierra Nevada Mountains! Bon Appétit! read more

Sasquatch Tavern is such a gem! Parking right outside, plus the patio is open for summer, which makes it such a fun spot to hang out. The drinks are STRONG, and the food portions are absolutely massive especially considering how reasonable the prices are! We were so excited to celebrate my husband's birthday here, and the staff went above and beyond to make it special. And you HAVE to love the decor it's quirky, fun, and totally fits the "come as you are" vibe. They also serve breakfast, so you can easily make this a morning stop or come by later for drinks and a big meal. Great drinks, huge portions, reasonable prices, welcoming staff, and an atmosphere that doesn't take itself too seriously. Definitely a place we'll be back to! read more

I've been here to the Sasquatch Grill here in Verdi lots of time over the years. Mostly on my way towards or leaving the Reno area on the 80. This time I'm here with my crew that I met up with in Sacramento on our way on 80 East heading towards Salt Lake City. This is gonna be a long drive but it beats flying with 5 people and all the gear we carry. WE pull into Sasquatch and go in. We get a table in the middle of the room. The inside looks just like it always did with that Sasquatch statue standing there. The service is super friendly and we all order drinks. No beer this time, we're all on the road and some of us gotta drive. I decide to get something different this time, the steamed clams. My guys get 2 of the steak sandwiches, one gets fish and chips and the one other girl on the crew gets a chicken salad of some sort. The food arrives in a decent amount of time. My clams look delicious, though I thought the clams were on the small side, but there were a lot of them. The steak sandwiches looked good as usual as did the fish and chips. Next time I think I might go back to the steak sandwich. The clams really didn't fill me up, but I got some fries off one of the guys. Sasquatch is still on my list of best places to stop to eat when traveling the 80 near Reno. read more

We stopped by Sasquatch on our way to Lake Tahoe! We went on a Thursday evening and it was pretty busy. Thankfully there was one table left so we were seated right away. We shared the table with another small group and it was totally fine. The service was good and they have TVs if want to catch a game. We ordered the calamari to share and it came with hollandaise sauce. I ordered the smash burger with fries and both were really good! The fries had a seasoning that was really tasty. We wrapped up with the chocolate cake and ice cream! read more

My friend, Angela F and I meet up once a month for a lunch date. For March, we decided on making the trek out to Verdi to sample the fare at Sasquach Tavern and Grill. This was a first time for her. My husband and I had eaten here a few years ago on our way home from California. So worth the return visit. Luckily, we got there early. The space is very small and very popular so it gets filled up quickly. We were greeted upon walking in and were seated in a large but cozy booth. Jessica, our fabulous waitperson, made us feel welcome and provided excellent service from beginning to end. I ordered the Chicken Caesar Wrap. My friend ordered the Rib Eye Sandwich. Both came with fries. The portions were HUGE! I was barely able to get through half of it. We appreciated take-home boxes filled with another meal (or two) later on. There was a bit of a wait on getting our food, but the place is small, busy, and I assume they have a small kitchen. This one of those places worth a return visit. read more

FUN place! Great food, easy to find in little Verdi NV. Service? Really confusing. Everyone who came in after us had their food -and in one case finished their food- before we saw ours. We were not in a hurry but we were annoyed. However we were so happy with the food that the rating had to be 5 stars. I had the steak quesadilla and my friend had the giant chicken caesar wrap. Both super flavorful and enough for 2 meals - I love leftovers! read more

We had heard good things about Sasquatch's in Verdi and we weren't disappointed. I had their fish (cod) and chips and my wife had the Sasquatch burger; both are house specialties. My plate had a generous 4 pieces of nicely batted fish and the fries were great. My wife's burger looked great too. We both said we'd come back again. Not knowing what to expect, I was surprised that it has a dimly lite bar and small dining area, but locals had the bar well occupied while we had one other couple enjoying the cuisine. The staff were attentive to our needs and the food worth going back for. I was impressed! read more

Only one waitress at lunchtime. But she was really good. Small place, tends to get crowded at dinner (I was told by a friend). We arrived early for lunch and there was still one booth and one table for two available. There were also two tables for 6. By the time we left, it was pretty busy. I opted for the blackened rib eye sandwich. I asked for medium rare, I got medium rare. Sandwich was way too much for me to eat. Took half home for dinner. Nancy opted for the Chicken Wrap .. also took half of it home. Funky little place with a full sized Sasquatch for decor. Food was excellent. Would definitely go back to try other options. For us it was a 20 minute drive from downtown Reno, but worth the trip. read more

We've been to Sasquatch twice and each time we loved the service and the food. It's a smaller establishment but they can surprisingly fit large parties. The interior is warm, inviting and they have a fire place that's keeps you nice and warm if you sit next to it. This time around I had a grilled chicken salad. It was huge and I definitely had left overs. The veggies were nice and fresh and had a wonderful crunch to them. Our drink orders from the bar took a bit longer but we understood as they were a bit busy. Can't wait to come back! It's a little hidden gem. read more

We had a great experience here and will certainly be back. We had a larger group and they accommodated us right away. I tried their old fashioned which was very good. I ordered their Sweet'n Spicy Crispy Chicken Sandwich that is crispy buttermilk fried chicken tossed in their secret hot honey sauce with sweet butter chips, lettuce, and tomatoes served on a bun. It was tasty, messy, but tasty. The restaurant itself is smaller inside with a few booths and tables centered to accommodate larger groups if needed. We called ahead to make sure and I'd suggest doing the same if in a larger group. *Bonus points for having an awesome Sasquatch dressed in the appropriate attire for the Thanksgiving season.* read more

Sasquatch Tavern and Grill - Chicken Tacos are amazing!!!! - American Near Me - Verdi, Nevada

Starting with the important part, the food. The lunch/dinner menu offers a wide variety of salads and sandwiches plus tacos. The entrees include steak, seafood, and lots of pasta dishes. Breakfast (opens at 9) has healthy choices and hearty comfort foods. We have been in several times and prefer coming for lunch and have never had a bad meal. The rib-eye sandwich, Fusili Chicken Pasta, and the lobster rolls are favorites. The place is a hole in the wall type of local favorite. The atmosphere and decor are rustic and exactly what you should expect given the name Sasquatch Tavern. The service never disappoints. Biggest question is it worth the drive? Yes, it feels special and worth the little extra drive and little extra price to enjoy Verdi in this way. read more

My friend Deb, drove us to Sasquatch on Saturday for their steamed clams. This was a large and deep bowl, filled full of little clams, and the most tasty broth I've ever had, with a side of garlic bread. Christine was a knowledgeable server, and friendly. The decor fits the theme perfectly. I can't wait to go back and try the lobster roll. read more

Wow, how did I miss reviewing one of my favorite hidden gems? Legend states the best burger you will have in northern Nevada is in a little hole in the wall in Verdi, tucked among the pine trees of this small mountain town. The first time I went here, it was after buying powerball tickets at the border. On the way back, I glanced and saw the name and knew I had to stop. This bar has an old school divey vibe, nice and dark with wooden fixtures. The service is good and fast and friendly. The prime rib dip is one of the best sandwiches you will find around Reno. Tender slices of medium rare prime rib tucked into a roll, I'm salivating just thinking about it. If I don't get that, I get their burger with blue cheese. Almost too big to fit in one's mouth, almost. The fries are always perfect as well. It's too bad that it's a bit of a drive or I would be out here every weekend. Instead I save it as a treat for the odd times I find myself in Verdi. It's worth the trip in any case, definitely lives up to the hype! read more

My first time trying Sasquatch as i found myself on that side of town and it was conveneient. I went for lunch and there was ample parking and seating indoors although the space isn't large and space filled up by the time i left. The ambiance is kind of hole-in-the-wall with a focus on big foot, of course. I liked it. Eclectic but cool. Service was great and i ordered fish tacos and side of onion rings. There were many good things i saw on the menu but wanted a little lighter lunch and ordered fish. The fish was good with a light batter but the taco garnish didn't fit the bill. There was way too much pico and white sauce, with not a lot of flavor. But the big detractor was the layer of cheddar cheese on the bottom. Cheese, in general, does not pair well with fish but definitely not a yellow cheese. The strong cheese taste overpowered the fish. I think they need to alter their tacos based on the protein. The heavy cheese and pico might work with chicken or pork but a more citrus based slaw is needed for fish. The helping of three tacos was generous and i did finish it but by the end i had to scrape the cheese and most of the pico out. The onion rings were a soft and heavy batter. I prefer a very light batter that crisps up in the fryer so i left half the order uneaten. I would not order the fish tacos again and would probably pivot to fish n chips. That said i will visit again and try some of the other menu items that looked really good to me. That will likely improve this rating. read more

Went in the other day as I saw a video on TikTok about their fish and chips. Fish and chips were super good. Coleslaw was really good as well. At the time they ran out of regular french fries so I got the sweet potato fries which were pretty good as well. Would highly recommend this place. read more

When I heard about a Sasquatch themed restaurant I knew I had to go. I am so glad I did. This hidden little gem in Verdi has amazing food, a fun ambiance, and great staff. It is a small place and gets busy. We waited about 15 minutes for a table but it was worth it. The staff is very friendly and the food was great. I had the Teriyaki burger with the salad and it tasted amazing. My son had the fish and chips. He said they were cooked perfectly, not greasy like they sometimes can be. My daughter had the Sweet and Spicy Crispy Chicken Sandwich and really enjoyed it. The portions were very large and the price was actually very reasonable. I am looking forward to coming back. read more

The Sasquatch is a pretty cool place. They have a nice patio to sit outside and the food isn't to bad. Since we found it about 6 weeks ago we stopped by once every weekend and were about to become regulars there. Until tonight. What an unpleasant experience! At first everything was alright. While we were eating we noticed a couple of kids running around unsupervised, but since they didn't make too much noise we ignored them as well as we could. My heart quietly went out to the waitress, though. Carrying hot food and dodging out of control kids is an accident waiting to happen. Little kids can't really control themselves and if the parents don't do their job everybody around them is potentially sh@t out of luck. We were done eating and while my husband settled the bill I went to use the restroom. When I came back it wasn't quite done yet and I decided to not climb up to the terrace again ( I have a bad back and steps give me a problem). Instead I stepped over to the railing for something to hold on to and lit a cigarette. I guess now would be the time to mention the sign they have asking for people not to smoke on the terrace while people are eating. Can't say for sure if anybody was eating, but I think not. To be honest- I didn' t think much about it, because I wasn't on the terrace and I had seen the manager smoking over there when we first came in. Out of the corner of my eye I noticed someone walking towards me. Without even coming to a stop the man ordered me off the premises, no eye contact, no "excuse me" or "please". - In short : not the faintest hint of any kind of respect. He just kept on walking into the restaurant. By that time his wife Karen got involved and it dawned on me that these must be the model parents of the 2 little pains in the neck. They can't be bothered with actually watching their children, but a stranger lighting a cigarette a good 15 feet away snaps both of them to immediate attention. Karen goes on and on and orders me to my car. I thought that was quite humorous, we were parked about 5 feet away from where they were sitting. I always had a soft spot for entitled idiots who think the whole world owes them because they chose to multiply, but quite frankly I was in too much pain to bother with the witch any longer. Turns out she did not like were we were parked when she saw me standing beside the car. By that time the manager had come out and promptly sided with the rudest person on the premises. I can't believe that she actually yelled at us to f@@k off in front of her precious children. At that point we were just getting into the car and the manager - practically frothing at the mouth - kept yelling at us to get out. We wish the Sasquatch all the luck for the future. With a manager who just jumps in blindly without hearing both sides they need it. As I said before: I have worked in the service industry myself and I have never seen behavior as unprofessional as this. Standing by an entitled couple bulldozing over an elderly veteran and his wife who were trying to stand up to a couple of disrespectful, rude bullies trying to order them around and then himself disrespecting them - paying customers nonetheless - even further should clearly get him fired. This is no way to treat people that have done nothing wrong! read more

We took our friend to Sasquatch today and they loved the food. I forgot to take pics but I heard the ribeye was scrumptious. My friends enjoyed and loved the taste of the grilled burgers, onion rings and French fries. I thought it was just me exaggerating about the food but they agreed best burgers and Ribeye they have had in the Reno area. The service was great as usual! We will definitely take them back to Sasquatch at their next visit. read more

First time I'd ever tried this place and it was wonderful. They have a varied menu with everything from appetizers to burgers, salads, and dinner entrées. I had the fried calamari and a Caesar salad, and both were excellent. The calamari comes with a Dijon mustard sauce that has mushrooms mixed in and it was wonderful. Servers are friendly, patient, and willing to help explain anything on the menu. Prices are reasonable. Our plan to return to try other options from their menu. Five stars for today's visit. read more

Came here for an early dinner and there wasn't a wait on a Friday. We got a booth, and they have crayons for the kids menu too. This place has good reviews since way back and I will say it is still great today. The calamari has a unique dipping sauce with mushrooms. The stroganoff was rich and plentiful. Fish and chips were also good reheated the next day. The primrib was just ok. It may have been seared. Service was great. This is a nice local restaurant. read more
