Burning man w. Onion rings
Edgar Z.

This place rocks! We came after a softball game and they had enough room for the whole team, parents and siblings. We sat and played games while we drank some local brews and waited for our food. The staff was very kind and patient, I can only imagine the stress that comes from all of us being there, hungry, thirsty and loud. The food was great and plenty, I couldnt finish my dinner and I'm not a small man. I love that I have left overs. If you're in the neighborhood, this is the place to be. I hope I'm back during the summer bc they have a backyard with outdoor games and a brick built bbq.

House Soup - Tomato Basil
Ian M.

I came here midday just before they were moving from breakfast to lunch. I quickly scanned the breakfast menu but actually had a hankering for a Cheesesteak sandwich. I paired that with a cup of their delicious tomato basil soup. I'd come back just for more of that...! Maybe pair it with a grilled cheese next time. The Cheesesteak was okay. Lots of gristle and tough fat that I had to pull from my mouth, but the overall flavor was decent. The service was steady and the inside looks just about the same as it did when it was still the Hamdog's restaurant. Long bar, gambling machines and about 15 or more tables.

Southwest Cheesesteak Sandwich

The Grill Next Door is a Gardnerville staple. The staff are always nice and attentive and the owners are also awesome. I love that it has an arcade/game area and a full bar. It's a great place for family and a great place to hangout and enjoy some delicious food. Most recently I tried the cheese steak and it was delicious! We haven't tried breakfast yet but hopefully soon, the menu looks amazing.

Buffalo Salad

Pulled pork was delicious!! I love the onion rings they were very crunchy and savory. Quick service we were seated immediately. This is a bar but also has arcade games for the kids. My partner loved the tomato soup! Love the vibes.

It definitely was tricky to find once the sun went down but the parking lot was full of cars which helped give clues to the location. It was pretty full which was a good sign upon arriving. Turns out they were having DJ Trivia that same night on the other side of the restaurant so little by little people appeared to trickle over. The staff were attentive and friendly. I went the "healthier" route and ordered a chicken cesar wrap and a while after learned that they ran out of tortillas so I had to go with a salad. Which was fine, I just found it interesting that it took 15 minutes to learn this. The waitress comped my soda so that was nice. The menu is abundant with lots of options. I now know that if there is not a sign and it look like the place is out of business that's usually a winner. I did enjoy the large flavorful salad and my friend enjoyed her burger. Nice to be able to explore the Gardnerville area at the same time.

What a wonderful hole in the wall kind of spot for great service and affordable yummy food! The biscuits were toasted and scrumptious as was the gravy. My omelette was so fluffy and filled with veggies. We'll be back!

Stealing money proof

We went there tonight and there was barely anyone there which was nice. We ordered, onion rings and fried pickles for appetizers. Its 30 minutes for those to come out. 3 other families were sat after us. My husband ordered fish and chips and I ordered the BBQ bacon wrap. An hour after sitting down all the families were given their food before us. We asked how much longer and they told us that they just got a big online order and they were doing that first then they would start on ours. I told them to cancel it. Everyone was served before us that were sat after us and we didn't want our food any longer. I thought this place was great before. The service is horrible now. The waitress had a major attitude from the get go. I just checked my bank account and turns out the waitress gave herself a $20 tip. Our bill was 31.60 and we were charged 51.60. She stole from us. I will be reaching out to them as soon as they open today.UPDATE: I talked to the manager ans she says everything went through as the original amount. I have included pic of the receipt and the pending charge. UPDATE: I talked to the manager ans she says everything went through as the original amount.

Taco Tuesday and weenie Wednesday, two of the reasons my wife and I have been at Jethro's in the…read morelast month. My advice to you is to have a plan. Before you get there, decide how many tacos you want to eat. There will be temptation, stick to your guns. The quick and efficient service may tempt you into an extra taco, resist. Develop the plan, work the plan, stay on the plan. The same goes for weenie Wednesday. The waitress explained it to us once. The owner secures Casper brand hot dogs, bring them over the hill weekly, and the hot dog is designed to snap when you bite into it. I'm convinced this is a covert plan to get you to change your plan. I wish you the best of luck here. The weenie Wednesday menu reflects a variety of flavors that will tempt you into deviating from the plan. I've never heard of a Reuben dog, or a Caesar dog. When I grew up, I had mustard dogs. These dogs are way beyond that and the venue tempts you to try new versions of different hot dogs. One of my excuses the last time I had weenie Wednesday was that " sauerkraut is good for my gut biome." So on taco Tuesday and weenie Wednesday, you could be tempted into a second round. That's not a good thing. The service has been fun, the environment, friendly, and welcoming, people laughing throughout the room, enjoying their food. Makes it a great experience. Oh heck, you're in the building you're hungry, change the plan, enjoy.

Just a word of advice " Change the oil in your fryers!" Twice my husband and I have been there to…read moreeat and he orders the fish and chips. The first time the waitress noticed he barely ate his dish and he explained that the coating on the fish and chips were too dark and not golden. Fish inside was not cooked all the way. She understood and she gave him a free drink chip. This time we came for lunch he ordered the fish and chips and again the oil is too dark. I ended up giving him half of my pulled pork sandwich, which was really good. But I have to admit my fries weren't that good because the oil needs to be changed!

I agree with another comment--the house-made potato chips are beyond salty. But they are still…read moregood, just wish they could use a little less salt. Their salad wraps are huge, fresh, and delicious. Much like the rest of the food on their out-of-the-ordinary menu. One word of caution, if you go when the dining room is not busy, you might be better off sitting in the bar. The waitress stays mostly in there, and dining room service can be painfully slow. Otherwise, I highly recommend this longtime neighborhood favorite!

My husband and daughter and I were in town visiting grandma and grandpa. It was Grandpa's birthday…read moreand we wanted to take him somewhere different than the place we always go to. I checked this place out in the afternoon before deciding to go to dinner there. It looked pretty casual in the menu look like something everybody would enjoy. When we got there, we were greeted nicely and our server, JC, was very nice. All of the food was bountiful. We ordered the appetizer with three different items which was pretty good. It was onion rings, fried zucchini, and fried mozzarella sticks. The zucchini was a little undercooked. On to the main courses. It took longer than we would think and they brought it out in pieces. The two men got theirs first and my daughter and I got hers a few minutes later and Grandma was served last. Grandpa ordered a steak sandwich and he said it was good. My husband ordered a Philly cheese steak, which she said was decent. Grandma ordered fish and chips and she said it was so so. The french fries were thick steak type that were really good. A couple of us tried them. My daughter and I were excited when we saw the lobster tacos and we ordered them. The chips that came with them were salty beyond belief! We could not even eat them. When I told JC, she said there's nothing they could do about the chips and she offered to take the salad off the bill which I thought was nice. Both of my daughter and I could not eat the chips. The lobster tacos were not good. If the corn tortillas were warmed or cooked, it must've been very, very little. The lobster was chopped up in a wait and mixed with some kind of sauce that we can barely taste the lobster. We got two tacos and barely ate one. We took them home, but it didn't seem worth it to try to mend this. The best thing I can say is that the people they were very welcoming and pleasant. Also, JC gave my father-in-law a lemon bar for his birthday as we walked out. That was really sweet. Lastly, make sure you bring cash because you have to pay extra for using a card. We have to pay over $6 extra because we used a card. Am I understanding is that is happening a lot in restaurants. So, I don't think this is unusual.

Service was friendly and the food was excellent. The Reuben is a thick hot pastrami on grilled Jewish rye with Swiss, sauerkraut, and Thousand Island. The Tahoe Blue is a hot albacore tuna melt on grilled sourdough with cheddar. Both came with a side as advertised, salad on my plate and fries on my wife's with Ranch dressing to dip the fries in. Portions were generous and the bread is amazing and baked in-house daily. The bakery case is one of many reasons to come back....! Coffee cakes, croissants, cookies, fruit tarts, and packaged loaves were all out and labeled. We bought croissants and cookies to take back to camp and they traveled (and ate) well....! The one real drawback is the building. The bakery and restaurant share a door with C.O.D. Casino next door. When that door opens, cigarette smoke comes into the dining and bakery area. The restroom is also on the casino side. That does not change the quality of the sandwiches or pastry, but it is noticeable and it is worth knowing before you sit down, especially if you are sensitive to smoke or bringing food out for a trip. Note: they do have outdoor seating. We love having this place close to home and will use it again for lunch and bakery takeout for sure! Four stars because the food and service earned five and the smoke and restroom setup cost one.

We always go to Schat in Carson, so when we were in Minden, its branch was our first choice for late lunch. We got what's available without the need for them to prepare, since they are closing.

It's always relaxing and the interior is classic. We ate in the park since they are already closing, but that's alright.
