    Seed of a banana.

    If I could give negative stars, I would. After we were seated, our drink order was taken but the gal got that incorrect. The iced teas had floating black specs in them (may have been remnants of the tea bags). After we were served our meal, no one came back to check on us. We had to catch the server, to briefly ask for more coffee. We needed more sugar and my son wanted a refill on his soda. I wanted my iced tea replaced with water. Had to grab sugar off of another table while waiting. At that point a waitress from another area asked if we needed anything. She was actually very helpful. I ordered the bananas foster French toast. The bananas were all bruised and the "bananus" of the banana was in my food. I tried to let the gal know that seated us (the one that messed up our drink order) but she dismissed what I was saying and tried to say that I had a problem with them putting the end of the banana in my food. Never apologized or acknowledged the issue. I even tried to point out the "bananus" and she didn't see an issue with it. Oh and apparently she was the supervisor.

    Prime rib dinner

    This is a great restaurant, I had their prime rib dinner for $14.99 and it was great. Very large salad, baked potato with all the fixings, green beans and a huge serving of prime rib plus au jus and horse radish sauce.. I went again and I had one of their 4 monthly specials Orzo chicken salad with black olives, cherry tomatoes and artichokes in a great dressing either garlic bread.. plus for $4.99 extra you get 7 large crispy fried shrimp and they are great. Their menu is great and the dining room is clean and service great.

    Pretty basic breakfast food items. I had bacon and biscuits and gravy. It was a decent meal. If you don't mind eating in the casino, it's a good option for a meal. Didn't take us that long to be seated. There's a large parking lot out front. It's free to park.

    #1 from the selections on the free breakfast coupon (for staying here).

    Gold Dust West is my favorite place to stay for a quick overnighter on the way through town. It's reasonably priced and staying in the hotel gets you a coupon for free breakfast - so here I am! There's a list of free breakfast options on the back of the coupon. I chose #1, which I believe was called the Little Star. Scrambled Eggs, Hash Browns, Bacon, Toast and Coffee - pretty solid for free! The food was good - pretty standard I guess... the staff has always been really nice and attentive which helps smooth things out until the coffee kicks in. Great start to the day - ready to hit the road again!

    prime rib dinner

    Finally trying out the casino restaurant because my favorite mexican restaurant Ole Ole is not open. Ordered their prime rib special, asked for medium rare, probably should have asked for rare because the cut I got was closer to medium to well done. The prime rib was okay but might have been better if it was closer to medium rare. It's accompaniments I wanted was a baked potato and mixed vegetables of broccoli, cauliflower and carrots. All the goodies like sour cream, butter and creamed horseradish. Sorry, I got a pumpkin pie but I made it disappear before getting a pic.

    Served moldy bread

    Ordered toast as a side to my plate and was given moldy toast. Not great since I ordered the biscuits and gravy, and that is also something that could've been moldy. Couldn't even eat the rest of my plate.

    The Bacon Cheeseburger

    We were headed back to Sacramento on the 50 comin into Carson City. I saw this ad for "Bones and Brew" at the Gold Dust West Casino. It offered a 1/2 rack of ribs served with fries and a beer for just $8.99. Half a rack for $9 bucks sounded like a deal and tossing in a beer too. So, we pull off into the Gold Dust West. It's a small locals casino with a Mexican restaurant and the regular dining area, called the Grille. We're seated fine in a booth. I see the placard on the table for the 1/2 rack of ribs for $8.99 and also I see an offer of free pie! Just spend over $7.00 and you get a free piece of pie. Damn, a great $8.99 rib deal, PLUS FREE pie! My friend decides to get the Bacon Cheeseburger. The food arrives in decent time. Yep, that's a full 1/2 rack all right. 6 bones uncut. I asked if the kitchen could cut my ribs for me, but they said no, we give you a knife. So, you'll be stuck sawing away at this rack at the table yourself. I asked for sauce on the side, cause grabbin them ribs with sauce slathered all over is way messier than no sauce and dipping the ribs in the sauce as you eat them. The fries were a sort of smaller portion served along with a little plastic container of coleslaw. The Bacon Cheeseburger looked really good. My friend chomped away on it and said he liked it just fine. My ribs, I'll tell you what, (people seem to say this a lot in these parts), were super meaty and fall off the bone easy to eat. The sauce was standard Bullseye, but the ribs! These weren't the standard, St. Louis, but more like bigger baby back ribs with the curved bones. Maybe not the absolute best ribs I ever had, but damn good for the price! I was stuffed and was one rib short of finishing. I got a Budweiser since I wasn't the one driving. Then the server asks what pie we'd like. You only have the choice of some kinda pie I never heard of, Cookies and Cream or Berry pie. We both took the berry pie. It was a pretty decent pie, not gourmet, but FREE! If I'm passing thru Carson City again, I just might have to get these ribs again if the offer hasn't ended.

    Prime rib
    Rodrigo S.

    If you're looking for a place that serves a prime rib special in Carson City go here! The prime rib is available from e11am and includes soup/salad, choice of potato, and vegetables... all for $11.99. In addition, it comes with dessert! The prime rib is tender so you know it was slow roasted and seasoned.

What I received was an amazing blend of super tender pork in a slightly sweet but tangy BBQ sauce, mac n' cheese, and a perfectly cooked (not hard or dry), very generously sized potato (big enough for two). On a chilly day, when you're hungry, this absolutely fits the bill. Warming and savory, but well balanced, and not greasy. After some bowling or billiards? Perfect. I was thinking this was probably the best flavor, when I saw the rotating ad for....a spaghetti potato pie. Will have to come back and try other varieties. The cashier was very helpful and patient explaining the menu. Checked the website and looks like they update the menu with new options too. They say they're "dedicated to perfecting the art of the baked potato," and they're doing exactly that. Along with it, they're also serving up one of the best craft-style fountain sodas, Stubborn Soda. Don't hesitate to make a little detour (or order delivery) to try this place. TIP: Located inside the HomeGrown Bowl center: from the main entrance, head down the hall to the right past the arcade; also near a side entrance.

    Capital City Grille - good piled fillings

When I heard…read morethat the awful awful burger, (awful, big, and awful good! ) is at the Carson City nugget, I wanted to get here for sometime, but I haven't. The casino itself is a simple casino that caters more toward the locals. Old, but comfortable. I can't speak for the games, because I didn't play. But it just reminded me of an old-fashioned casino that goes way back when. They changed the name of the coffee shop to the capital city Grille. They did a good job with the remodel, it's bright and fresh, and it still has that old-fashioned coffee shop vibe, Unlike the crowded space with just a few tables that was in back of the Reno casino. Also, this place is not open 24 hours, like the one in Reno was. I retired from drinking a long time ago, but I still kind of remember that 3 AM stumble into the Reno nugget diner for an awful awful. Ah, the memories... The service was good. Right off the bat, my waitress advised me that she was the only person working, yet she still got to me pretty quick. There was nothing like the original awful awful at the Reno nugget, but I would say that this burger is a worthy heir to the throne. It's more of an "upscale awful awful", but it still holds the mantle of awful big, and awful good. When you order, they ask how you want your burger cooked. I asked for medium, and that's how it came. She also offered me several different options beside the fries. For me, fries, no question. I wanted the entire experience. At the old nugget, you'd get a giant basket of fries, which I could never finish. The burger reminded me so much of the original awful awful. It was immense! With my first bite, the memories just came flooding back. Instead of an onion bun, it now comes on a brioche bun, and as I ate the burger, the bun started to disintegrate a little bit, just like it used to do in Reno. It's hard for a bun to hold up to that much burger. All of the fixings were fresh, and my "awful awful sauce", just as good as always, came on the side. That was no problem, I used part of it on the burger, and the rest of it I used as a "fry sauce" which I love. , the fries were skin on steak fries, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and absolutely delicious. I'm not sure what they seasoned them with. Somehow, I managed to finish the whole meal. It's more expensive than the original, but hey, prices for everything have gone up. The price was still very reasonable. No, this isn't the Reno awful awful, but this place has done an awful awful good job of keeping the tradition going. (See what I did there? :) I will be back. Thanks.

    Every now and then I have one of those where have I been moments?…read moreWell, today was one of those times. I was at a plaza, not far from where San Marcos Grill is located. We were hungry and decided we wanted Mexican food. We've been really tired of the place we've been visiting as we are regulars there. We've been really wanting to try something new and I remembered there was a place down the street from the plaza we were at. San Marcos Grill is not very hard to find. It's just off the main drag going through Carson City on Winnie Lane. We pulled in to the parking lot and I have to be honest. My first thought was wow I hope this place is good. Because I had my doubts being in a strip mall. But you never know unless you try. So we walked, and I was amazed, how awesome this place looked I'm talking very festive, very clean. Tables were well spaced out. The lady greeted us immediately and pointed us to a table where we could sit at. She was there taking our drink orders very quickly. As we sat and looked over the menu, I could not get over the size and beauty of the bar that they have in this establishment. Complete with a great selection of any kind of drink, you could possibly want also TVs that are spaced around the establishment so if you want to watch a sport event, there's not a bad seat anywhere in the restaurant. After looking over the menu, our server came to our table was a very nice young lady and took our orders. My wife chose the beef enchiladas, and a taquito, which comes with rice and beans As I always do with a new establishment, I chose the Carnitas plate. I am a Carnitas aficionado and I always try everyone's Carnitas to see if they are legit. As we're waiting for our food, I noticed an older gentleman who was just helping everybody, come to find out he is the owner. I do not know his name, but he's very friendly guy and very warm and welcoming. As I said, the establishment is very spacious and clean. The bathroom was even clean, so it was a real joy to be there, even though we were waiting on our food, which did not take very long. My wife ordered a margarita that she really liked and I just had a Modelo with a lime. The gentleman I just told you about who I think is the owner brought our food to us and it looked amazing. Needless to say, we dug right into our food and I could not get over how great these Carnitas tasted. Not everyone can make really good Carnitas, they're either dry or they're cooked too long to were they are too crispy. These are so tender and flavorful. I enjoyed every bite. My plate came with rice in a small bowl of beans, a garnish of avocado, sour cream and pico. It also came with very hot corn tortillas The tortillas, however we're spoiled and tasted really old. In fact, you can smell how old they were. I let our server know, but it was no big deal because I had tortilla chips still on the table. She offered to get me some new tortillas, but it was fine because I only use the tortilla to kind of put my food onto the fork. So the tortilla chips worked just fine. I kept trying to eat the Carnitas slowly because I was savoring it so much. I did not want to hurry and be done with the meal too fast. This was our first visit here, and I can tell you that we will be back and probably become regulars. The staff here is very wonderful welcoming and I cannot recommend this place high enough to anyone that wants a great place to eat really great Mexican food. Kudos to the staff.!
