French dip sandwich
Donna B.

A fairly new sandwich shop in Virginia City. Every March my small group heads to VC for the Testy Festy event. We stay the weekend so we can check out all the mom and pop restaurants. Savage is a small sandwich shop on C Street. To go orders are available. Inside has about seven tables. They offer about 20 different burgers and sandwiches hot off the grill, five salads, and a few usual sides. The French dip was pretty filling, lots of this roast beef and melted cheese on a soft roll. They take credit cards and cash. Usually closed Tuesday and Wednesday. Open 11a to 5 pm. But in VC always double check the hours. During the event we were able to eat as late as 7 pm. Limited street parking out front. But I park and walk the entire town, great exercise and most businesses are on C Street.

Walked into this new comfy little joint on the main drag in VC. We shared the Ham and Swiss hot hoagie and grabbed it to go so we could go sit in the warm sun. The sandwich is good sized and starched with thick, sliced off the bone, juicy ham. We asked for Swiss because I typically don't like American (processed) cheese. Well, I wasn't a fan of the Swiss either. Why? Because it was also processed! Cmon guys! If you're going to have a solid sandwich leave the processed cheese for the competition. Put real cheese on the sandwich for Pete's sake. Really disappointed in that. I will come back but you better believe I'll be asking for real cheese next time. Could have been 5 stars...

Exterior

What a gem. Fast and friendly. Great tasting sandwich and cheeseburger. Fries were a cross between and potato wedge and a crinkle cut steak fries, amazing. Feel of a cozy 1940s establishment.

The Savage Burger

The Savage burger is one of the best burgers I've ever had. My wife's French Dip was superb! We kept trading back and forth. The service is exceptional. The country ambiance is what you'd expect in this old mining town. Well worth the drive.

Found this new Grill spot that just opened in Virginia City . And it's right on the Main Street with all the shops . It has a fair amount of seating and service was excellent . The decorations really fit in with the style of the town . The food was soo good!! Flavorful and giant portions . My favorite were the fries, soo yummy. Definitely a good spot if you're hungry .

Hot dog

GREAT HOT DOG. Really fun spot. We only tried the hotdogs so I can't speak to the rest of the food but compared to other food we had on the strip I would have rather eaten here. The people are so nice and friendly and made us feel so welcome. I recommend this over other spots in Virginia City.

Ribeye sandwich with sidewinder fries

The food, service, and ambiance of this quaint grill in this small town was outstanding. We ordered a grilled chicken sandwich, garden salad, and a ribeye sandwich for lunch. Everything was delicious. I highly recommend this Savage Grill. My ribeye steak sandwich came with sidewinder fries. This building is full of history as owner David Cass and his wife will tell you. Enjoy!

Best place in Virginia City to have lunch! David and his wife were so welcoming. Food is also amazing! Their sidewinder fries are the best in town.

Quality/Quantity - We take all our guests here for a taste of Virginia Jerky…read more A huge selection of beef jerky; even my daughters like the jerky from here. Amazingly, we have not had the time to try the smokehouse part of the business, but look forward to it in the future. In the past, you have been so busy, there were no tables available. Ambiance - Small local business. Plenty of street parking. Open 6 days a week from 11am to 3pm or 4pm; closed on Tuesdays. Service - Good. Price - Expensive (jerky), but that is the cost for quality. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success since 1999 and at this location since 2003.

The sandwich came on a round roll that was super fluffy with a pile of delicious pork with a tasty sauce. They have more sauce choices on the tables outside. You order at the counter and they bring your food out to you. The staff are all super nice. We switched tables because it was getting hot in the sun and I left my purse on the chair. It's nice to know that people sat at the table we moved from and no one ever touched it. It was right where I left it when I discovered it was missing. If you're in Virginia City take the stroll down to the end of the boardwalk and have a nice lunch, you won't be disappointed. You can smell the goodness a mile away!!

Overall, I have mixed feelings of this place. Food was delicious once we finally received it. It…read moretook around 45 minutes to an hour after we arrived to get our food. The service was great and the remodeling of the restaurant into the steakhouse turned out really nice. They do table side salads, entrees and desserts. We chose to order a standard meal. I would like to give this place another chance in the near future. Maybe it was an off night.

We went as a group of 20 for their prix fix New Years Eve dinner. The food was good but not great…read more The amuse bouche was very good. The 1st course was a choice of the foie gras (good but had an inordinate amount of fig jam on top) or escargot (very good). The second course was French onion soup or Niçoise salad. Both were very good. The third course was a choice of poached sole with hollandaise (the hollandaise was extremely spicy and way over powered the delicate sole. The sole was cooked until it was mushy) or roasted chicken in brown sauce (some were very good and others were dry and overcooked). The fourth course was roasted marrow bones with golden raisins and brie with lingonberry. Good but very rich. The fifth course was beef bourguinon that was excellent. For dessert we had crepe Suzette's that were okay but very sweet and paired with an extremely sweet ice wine. Too much sweet on sweet. Some hot bread and butter, others didn't. Same with water, some glasses were empty and never filled. Overall it was way too much food for me. It said $150 all inclusive so we assumed that meant tax and tip was included. We were wrong. When we got the bill they added tax and 20% gratuity. Then on top of that they charged 3% for paying with a credit card. It ended up being a $400 dinner. That was more than we anticipated in Virginia City. Additionally, apparently they ran out of one of the wines and some people were offered a different one and then got charged $20/glass for it. All in all, it was fun (more because of the company than the experience), the food was mostly good and the atmosphere was nice and service was okay. I felt bad for other couples trying to have a romantic NYE dinner and having to sit next to a group of 20. We'll choose a different location next year.

Gayle and I shared some confusion today as we enjoyed a nice lunch at what was either The Canvas…read moreCafe or The Cider House at Canvas Cafe. We think there may have been some recent movements by the owners, and for the purposes of this review, I'll go with this Yelp entry the matches the pictures to what we experienced. Today was a quiet post-New Years day and Gayle wanted to dine someplace besides the Red Dog Saloon (our "usual"). The Canvas Cafe (or whatever it's called now) was just a block or so down C street and open. The dining room was small, cute, inviting, and warm. It was also a "one man show" today as one guy was working both the kitchen and the dining room (and very well). I especially appreciate a really busy guy who maintained a relatively high service level, with a smile and a generous side of patience. We all ordered sandwiches, including French Dip for Gayle, Smash Burger for Darling Granddaughter, and a grilled Chicken Pesto for me. Everything was delicious, with my only regret being that I should have ordered the impressive side salad that Gayle chose. A small bag of chips really didn't do the sandwich justice. I would have also preferred a beer, but there was no alcohol served today, and my bottomless glass of lemonade was more than just fine. Gayle and I agreed that we'd love to come back in whatever main place or annex. It's a fair drive back to Genoa from VC, and we were happy to head down the hill full and happy.
