    Special Chicken picatta
    Leticia P.

    Another good visit--both at The Grille and Gold Dust West Casino. Customer service truly goes a long way, and visiting here always reminds me of being in Vegas. I frequent many dining establishments across Fernley, Sparks, Reno, and most recently Carson City, and from our experiences, Gold Dust West stands out. The employees we've encountered consistently provide good to great customer service and genuinely understand the value of repeat customers and long-term business. They almost always have a wait during dinner hours; however, tables turn quickly and the kitchen keeps up with demand. We've never waited long for our food, which says a lot during peak times. I honestly wish this level of understanding and execution could be instilled in some other nearby cities here in Northern Nevada. Grateful shout-outs to Rebecca in Guest Services, Jelly our server, and Jason (J) the bartender at GDW Casino. And at The Grille at GDW Casino--thank you to Manager Bryant, whom I truly appreciate for taking the time to have a conversation, Host Ashley, and our great server Aquiles. Also, kudos to the chef and kitchen staff for consistently delivering good-quality food in a timely manner. In addition, I don't like black beans and shouldn't eat tomato's (no seeds) but their Chicken Tortilla soup was delicious ! Great service, great teamwork, and another enjoyable visit.

    Frozen fried chicken straps and flat shrimp. Coleslaw flavor was off putting this trip.

    Free senior meal on Wednesdays with 50 base points on your players card. Shrimp abs chicken. They used to use accrual chicken for the straps, now they are the frozen ones like you buy at Walmart.. Still a good filling lunch. I believe there are 6 or 7 items on the senior menu. Some better than others. Allot like cafeteria food if I had to compare it to anything. Most the original staff are gone now since I've been going here for almost 3 years. The fries come out hot so that's a plus as I hate cold fries.. The meals are ok. Staff friendly. Restaurant stays clean.

    I got the Penne ala Vodka with steak (rare), and it was perfect!

    The low ratings for this place are baffling, me and my mom were both blown away by the quality of the affordable(!) meals we got. The rare steak in my penne pasta was perfectly cooked, and all the flavors were excellent. We ordered French fries as well and they were incredible- fresh French Fries cut out of a real potato with the skin still on served hot. Tremendous! The serving staff was really friendly as well.

    Prime rib dinner
    PJ D.

    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.

    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.

    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).
    Gary F.

    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
    Raymond L.

    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.

    The Bacon Cheeseburger
    Robbie R.

    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.

    We sat in the patio on a cool spring evening. Poof! They turned on the giant fire pit! Yea!…read more Our party of 5 all tried different menu items. Burger, pastrami sandwich, BLTA, fish & chips, and the brisket. The Tahoe IPA beer was great. Kids all ordered soft drinks, plenty of refills offered! We all enjoyed our meals, except brisket boy. He was expecting BBQ brisket, but the plate was more of a roast beef with gravy, mashed potatoes, and veggies. Fish & chips were pretty good, with 2 nice sized chunks of cod. The sandwiches were nice, burger solid! The fries were really good, seemed like fresh cut. When I looked at what others were enjoying, we observed that the wings look to stand out. Next time we'll explore wings & fries....and more beer! Service was attentive and the patio very pleasant!

    The good: Our server was great. She was personable. But she did mislead us when describing how…read moreeverything on the menu was good. But at the same time, it would be silly to hear a server say bad things about the menu items to their guests. So, she was just doing her job. The bad - The food. Of all the things we ordered, the cheese curds were the best thing cuz...how could you go wrong with frozen items you throw in a fryer? Anyway, we also ordered the Fried Pickles. I enjoy fried pickles, but holy sh*t these were SALTY! These pickles were more like chips. They were actually light and crispy which is unusual as fried pickles are typically still soft and and keep their integrity after being fried in a batter. These, however were like, dehydrated pickles that were battered and deep fried. I really liked how crispy they were, but with how salty they were, we couldn't finish it. Chicken Pot Pie - one of the more popular dishes ordered. It looked great when presented. The top crust looked nice and thin like a cracker, but when I dug in, the filling was runnier than what I am used to. But more importantly, the flavor was off. I assume they use a frozen pie crust because it didn't taste buttery at all. It had a weird chemically taste. I missed having that rich buttery crust a pot pie should have. The filling didn't taste great either. Also, had a weird chemically taste to it. I almost think they use canned chicken based on the flavor and texture it had. I was so looking forward to a homey comforting pot pie. It's not often I get to eat one of these, but this one fell way short of my expectations. The Lamb Burger - My husband loves lamb and it's not often you see a lamb burger anywhere. He was so excited to have this, but was so disappointed after taking his first bite. He said it was so bland. I took a bite. And while it did taste of lamb, I agreed it lacked seasoning. Now, THIS needed some of the salt that were in those pickles. Lol! Foxy Fried Chicken - A panko fried chicken breast. It was good. Mashed potatoes were good and the veggies. I didn't expect this dish to be spicy though. I don't know if the cook went heavy handed on the pepper, but the veggies and mashed potatoes it was served with had a kick to them. Meh. All in all, we wouldn't return. There was nothing we had that made me feel like this place had potential and worth making another visit to. We did order quite a few things and everything, but the curds were lackluster and a disappointment.

    WOW!!! Awesome food. FIRST time dining for dinner there. Was Not expecting the HUGE portions…read more There were only 2 of us dining. We ordered 2 appetizers, 1 cocktail per person, and 2 entrees (+ a desert to go). We left with 4 to-go boxes (+ the desert box). The prices was Surprising low considering how HUGE the ​portion are. Our server, Dennys, was so on top of things. Never had to wait for extras we needed (to go boxes, etc.) more than 3-4 minutes, even tho we said it was Not urgent and just whenever there was time. The atmosphere it neat. All the decor was fascinating to look at. Could probably spend 5 hours Just looking at everything throughout the place. The only thing we were bummed about was that when orsering rhe mashed potatoes, it didn't come with gravy. That's only on Friday's when they have their meatloaf dinner. But that's okay. Potatoes were still Great. Definitely recommend Red's. Would give 10 Stars of it would let me!!!!

I wanted a hearty hot meal in a sit down restaurant. We landed on Red's Old 395 Grill. Great choice. All right folks, once when you walk into this place. It's loud with a lot of visuals. Visual and sensory overload. Lots to look at. They have super tall vaulted ceilings. Look up and there are stage coaches, carriage buggies', and a humongous much larger than life statue of a woman flying on a broomstick. Lots to look at all around incorporated into wall art and furniture art. A lot going on but not gaudy or mismatched. It coordinated well and gave a turn of the century 1900 Wild West fun house. The interior dining tables are mostly booth seating with a step up. Which I found to be odd and precarious. So be aware. The menu is on steroids. Hefty with a bunch of options including award winning bbq. They have burgers,, sandwiches, appetizers, salads, steaks, entrees, and desserts. I ordered a ribeye, the 10 pounce petite cut. It's MidWest grain feed. Juicy and tender, really soft tender. I ordered it rare and rare I got. It was tasty. Price was good as well. $40.99. Hubs had the pulled pork sandwich. He isn't a pork fan, but he dug their pulled pork. The sauce was amazing. Yes, you bet I took a bite or two of his sandwich.

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.

Ambiance: Relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere with Mexican-inspired décor and cultural touches throughout the restaurant. There was a steady flow of guests, giving the place a lively but comfortable feel. Restrooms: Clean and decent, although a bit outdated. Service: Friendly but somewhat disorganized, possibly because we had a large group. The waitress initially told me the bartender was busy, but later realized she had never entered my drink order. She apologized and removed it from the bill. She also brought the wrong entrée for one of my friends but corrected it promptly. On a positive note, she graciously accommodated another friend's custom drink request even though it wasn't on the menu. Chips & Salsa: The first basket is complimentary. We were told additional baskets normally have a charge, but during our visit we were offered unlimited refills. Food: Fresh, authentic, and generously portioned. Recommended dishes: Salmon Atlántico, Fish Tacos, Artichoke Dip, Enchiladas, and Bistec.

The each of the proteins in the tacos were cooked perfectly and flavorful with sauces that complemented them. The coconut shrimp were mouth watering good!
