I've been regularly attending the wine and chocolate paring's for over a year now…read more This is probably the only place in Reno that I can consider myself a regular. Amber and Daniel always make me feel right at home! Very friendly and always going above and beyond to give us a great experience! The chocolates are always incredible! A few favs I have are the key lime pie, toasty blonde, lemon truffle, and the ebony and ivory! You really can't go wrong with any of them though!

We love Dorinda's Chocolates! They have been such a kind and consistent supporter of our work and…read morethe young people we serve. Their team recently welcomed our staff for a tour of their headquarters, and it was such a treat to see how much care goes into what they make. Every piece is handcrafted by their small local team, and you can feel the pride they take in their work. We also got to taste their seasonal Key Lime Pie Bonbon, which was incredible. On top of the tour, Dorinda's donated several huge bags of pretzels for our clients and staff to enjoy. Dorinda's has also participated in our But First, Dessert Gala every year from 2022 through 2025 and is a three-time winner of our Best Dessert Award, which says a lot because the competition is always strong. We are grateful to have Dorinda's as a neighbor, a partner, and a local business that genuinely shows up for the community. Highly recommend supporting this amazing local business and community supporter!

Finally decided to try brunch/lunch on a Sunday , we didn't make a reservation, however that wasn't…read morenecessary as we were immediately greeted and seated. Brunch is all day on Sundays however they do have a lunch menu starting at 12pm, so we ordered from each menu. The ahi nachos were great, thick pieces of tuna and a great sauce drizzled over. The Mushroom Lover's Omelette was fluffy and had a LOT of gruyere. The potatoes it came with were herbaceous and very well fried. While we didn't try the chocolate, their cocktails were cute and the DJ wasn't annoyingly loud. Someone celebrated their birthday here, which is the overall vibe of this place

A friend recently came into town, and since she loves champagne and chocolate, the obvious place to…read moretake her was Champagne & Chocolate. When we arrived, every table was full, so we grabbed seats at the bar. It turned out to be a great spot to watch the bartenders create beautiful drinks, including some of their signature cocktails served in a glass purse for parties of two or more. The atmosphere was lively and energetic, with groups celebrating birthdays and other special occasions. After looking over the menu, we decided on the lox crostini bites and the bruschetta. We each ordered a glass of sparkling wine. I added a chocolate rim to mine, which was fun to look at, although it didn't add much flavor. While we waited for our food, we enjoyed watching the flowing chocolate waterfall. Considering how busy the bar was, our food arrived quickly. The crostini were crisp, and both appetizers were fresh and flavorful. The only drawback was the volume of the DJ, but we knew what to expect as soon as we walked through the door. This is definitely a fun place for parties and groups looking for a lively night out. One last observation: I probably wouldn't choose this spot for a group of men. The décor and overall vibe are very much geared toward women, but the name says it all.

Wanted a caramel apple and decided to try the butterfinger caramel apple. I was quite surprised…read morewith how good it was especially since I opted to try something new and not get my snickers one. The ratio of caramel to apple to chocolate and the butterfinger was perfect. I also like the chocolate covered cheesecake but in my opinion it's better to let that one sit out a few minutes so the cheesecake is still semi frozen but soft.

Had a friend in town so we took her to Perenn Midtown. I enjoy how when you first walk in there are…read moreselected goods, cards, coffee, and breads to choose from. It is great that you can see what is happening behind the scenes with windows that view into the kitchen. Then you approach the baked goods section and then it becomes hard to choose. Fresh croissants and cookies are the recognisable goods. Other goods I can't pronounce or spell however, the mochi is always an excellent choice. These mochi baked goods took time to perfect, so enjoy it here. The first wave of service is nice, they will help you get pastries and baked goodies. Then you approach the register where you can order food and drinks. This last visit everyone was very nice and helpful. We received our food quickly. Thanks Perenn for all the good you offer.

Perenn is genuinely lovely. The space is beautiful, the sourdough is exceptional, and the food…read morereflects real craft and care. As a longtime Reno customer I've watched them grow from a single location into a multi-state restaurant group with six locations across Nevada and Tennessee -- and that growth is well deserved. That said I do want to share one honest observation. On top of premium pricing -- which I'm happy to pay for quality -- Perenn also charges subscribers for their Substack newsletter. For an independent bakery scraping by, that makes complete sense. For a thriving six-location restaurant group with real momentum and expansion capital, it feels like a bridge too far. The brand story and the people behind it are genuinely compelling -- that content should be how you invite customers deeper into your world, not an additional revenue line. The food earns five stars. The Substack paywall earns a raised eyebrow. Share your story freely -- you've clearly earned the audience.

Great location, nice close accessible parking, cute atmosphere…read more Got a recommendation to try the cubano hot latte. Great recommendation of a well balanced coffee that is only slightly sweet. Daughters ordered the strawberry matcha latte with house made syrup and loved it. Nice location with an enjoyable outdoor patio where we were graced with a slight morning breeze. A complimentary tasting of Turkish delight was offered with each purchase of a beverage. Asked for recommendations and got the pistachio which was really good and the tart raspberry. I'd definitely order the pistachio again!! The pistachio complimented the coffee and the raspberry would be awesome with a non coffee drink.

My partner got the Cardamom Lemonade and added a shot of espresso. The barista taking our order shared that this was "new, but we can do that!" casting no judgement upon my partner's strange order! He ended up loving his drink! We got the Flavor of the Month for our Turkish Delight sample (Li Hing Mui Peach Mango) and it's been our favorite so far! All of the baristas are lovely, but we have to give Nina a shoutout for being incredible!

Glad I was able to pick one up..

We chose to sit at their backyard patio. Eric gave us recommendations on the menu for kava. I appreciate that the drinks can be adjusted for sweetness. I ordered the kava chai (whole milk) and the Tahoe sunrise which came with complimentary biscoff cookies. We also tried traditional bowl of kava, which has a very earthy taste. The kava chai and Tahoe sunrise were delicious and refreshing. Kava has an analgesic (soothing/calming) effect throughout the body. I felt the effect not long after drinking the kava chai. We enjoyed our time here, the cozy atmosphere, great service and refreshing drinks contributed to a wonderful time.
