The service was great. The restaurant itself felt a little run down. We went for brunch on Sunday and ordered the Pacific Omelette, French Dip and the kids pancakes. The omelette was bland and I couldn't find a hint of blue crab in it. The tri tip in the French dip was dry and a little tough. The side of chicken vegetable soup with bacon was very tasty. The kids pancakes were good. Overall, the quality of the food for the price is not worth it. It was disappointing and we won't be back. read more

I have eaten here three times in the past three months. I keep coming back for a reason.... The San Francisco burger. Get extra napkins cause this one gets messy. The service here is always friendly. The staff seem to all get along which makes the environment very comfortable to hang out and slowly enjoy your food. The pricing on the menu provides a great value compared to other restaurants in the area. They also change up the menu once in a while which gives you something new to try. read more

There is no better deal on the south end of Reno better than the daily happy hour at Twisted Fork from 3:30-5:30. The big small plates are always delicious and perfect for sharing. My favorite for years has been the Cauliflower Ceviche and it's always yummy! Service is good but occasionally simple things like serving spoons are overlooked. Our server was great but never introduced herself so I can't even give credit for her sweet personality. read more

A solid 4 star experience. I went for happy hour, and it was pretty much what I expected. The prices are decent for food items, and even better for drinks. We ordered Tacos, beets, and a chopped salad, I didn't think anything was bad, but only the beets really stood out. The servers were a little busy, so we had to wait a while to order, and be checked on, but they did let us order off the happy hour menu right as it ended. It's a little far out of my way, but I'll be looking forward to another trip to try a few more things off the menu. read more

While in Reno I wanted to try something a bit outside of the usual. So I ventured away from the casinos and tried this recommended restaurant. This restaurant is located in Southern Reno and is an independently-owned restaurant. I appreciated that you had the option of dining in the bar inside or out on the patio. Due to the warm weather I opted to sit inside in the bar. I was quickly greeted by the lovely bartender who offered me the drink menu along with their specials for the day. I ordered the ahi tuna and a glass of sparkling wine for a starter. The tuna was absolutely delicious and a great shareable dish. My main course was the fish and chips which came with coleslaw. I really enjoyed the coleslaw as it was freshly made and sweet. The fish was good but it came with a heavy batter. Overall I definitely would love to come back and try some of the other menu items. read more

First, sorry I did and get any pictures of the food but my wife and I were very hungry and already eating before I realized I should have grabbed a couple picks. Pros: very clean and wonderfully friendly staff! They have a good selection on their menu and their signature house salad is excellent! The Cons: overall the food is just ok. The best thing we had was the house salad. The Chicken Parmesan was ok, the French Dip was ok, and the artichoke appetizer was ok. Nothing stood out as exceptional. I think for the money there are better options out there and score this palace a solid "ok". I'm not sure I would eat here again. read more

Ordered the turkey burger with sweet potato fries and husband ordered the chicken fried steak. We each grabbed a drink from the bar. A spicy Margarita for this girl always and a Libra which is a espresso vodka baileys type drink. Everything came out fresh and fast. First timers and definitely coming back! So many choices next time I will try the chilaquiles and different types of drinks! They have burgers and different brunch menu. Nice quiet atmosphere with music and good lighting. Great staff so kind and welcoming. read more

The best food in Reno, imho! I've been starved for great food and The Twisted Ford delivers every time. Not only is the food delicious and consistent, but it is creative with imaginative and wonderful flavor combos and interesting dishes both on the regular menu and offered with daily specials, as well. Staff is always friendly, and accommodating. Tonight my mom wanted to sit in a comfy booth seat near the window, but they were all taken. I mentioned to the hostess that we would like to move, when one became available, if possible... and when it was, 3 staff members helped us to move our things to the new table, everyone smiling. read more

UPDATE: Just added photo of pastor pork tacos. Quite tasty and you can adjust heat with the side of sauce they provide. We had a great time (again). Good was delicious and came out quick. Lilly was great at getting us a booth and ensuring we had a nice experience. Our server Christina was fantastic too. Definitely a place we like to hit up from time to time. read more

Twisted Fork never disappoints, and our Valentine's dinner was no exception! From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm and welcoming, making the evening feel extra special. Service was impressively fast, but nothing felt rushed--just smooth, effortless hospitality. Now, let's talk about the food. I ordered the lemon artichoke risotto with grilled chicken, and wow--every bite was perfection. The risotto was luxuriously creamy, each grain of rice perfectly tender, with a bright citrusy zing that danced on my taste buds. The artichokes added a delicate, earthy depth, while the grilled chicken was juicy, lightly charred, and packed with smoky flavor. Every bite was comforting yet elegant, the kind of dish that lingers in your memory long after the plate is empty. Twisted Fork is always a treat, and this meal just reaffirmed why it's one of my favorites. If you haven't been, do yourself a favor and go--you won't regret it! read more

The food is first rate, though our go to meal is the pear and apple salad with chicken. It is WONDERFUL! The wait staff first rate, the vibe is casual and the drinks from the bar excellent. Happy hour is 3-4:45 pm every day so we always take advantage of that. The patio is spacious, though those tables are first come, first served. This is our go-to place when we don't want to cook and want a great meal in a relaxed atmosphere. Treat yourself and check out the fork! read more

This was my first time here and it was great. The atmosphere was relaxed and vibrant. We started with roasted artichoke which wasn't my favorite. The dish was served cold and was somewhat chewy. Good flavor but would not order again. For my meal I ordered off the happy hour menu and got the cauliflower karaage and it was fantastic. The dipping sauces that it came with was delicious and a great pairing for the dish. To top it off we got the fudge brownie with ice cream which was delicious. Very rich and cooked to just the right consistency. My companions ordered the apple pear walnut salad and they couldn't stop raving about it. Our server was attentive and friendly. Would recommend and will return read more

Enjoyed another great evening at Twisted Fork in South Reno. I called to reserve a booth for dinner and Jason, manager, took my call. We arrived at restaurant and were led to a perfect booth by the window. Jason came over and greeted us and made sure we were comfortable. Our server Angie also came over and introduced herself. They were both very nice and treated us like old friends Food was amazing. I enjoyed a glass of house cab and Cindy my girlfriend had Grey goose and cranberry. For dinner I had the short ribs, meat fell off the bone, delicious. Cindy had the salmon dinner which she loved. Angie provided perfect service and ambiance was lively. Thanks Jason and Angie for a great evening, Conrado & Cindy read more

Best nearby sit-down restaurant to enjoy food in the Damonte ranch neighborhood on spur of the moment. My daughter's go-to is their fish and chips. My hubby's favorite is still the porcini mushroom ravioli and they both loved the last couple of soups they offered with their entrees. So tasty we ordered some to take home lol. I found a new favorite, pesto salmon with broccolini and risotto. Very filling and perfectly balanced in taste! Plus I indulged in a cocktail and really was surprised by their Capricorn drink. It tastes like apple pie in a drink. Their service in both the walk-in bar seating and main dining area is spot on! Always checking on us, refilling drinks, and clearing dishes right away. Always enjoy coming here. read more

What could have been a great experience turned into a frustrating one and I will not be back. My friend and I got seated on a Friday night with no wait for outside tables. We sat down and ordered some drinks and placed orders for Burrata and our entrees (I got the Ahi Tuna and my friend got the Chicken Parmesan). Each entree comes with a soup or a salad (house salad, caesar salad, or the soup of the day was clam chowder). The food was good but overpriced for what you get. The restaurant also doesn't provide the ambiance that would excuse a price that high for an entree. About 10 minutes after my drink arrived, a bug landed in it. I asked the staff if I could get a new drink because of the bug. I was told they would not replace the drink for free and they would charge me for another because "that's the risk I take with sitting outside." I understand the point, but I find that so unaccommodating and rude the way it was approached. The waitress felt bad and I could tell she was embarrassed to have to charge me for another drink. I opted not to get another and ended up being charged full price for my drink. To the restaurant manager who is 'stepping over dollars to pick up pennies' - what you don't understand is that your poor service cost your restaurant a return customer in both me and my friend, and I will not recommend your place of business to anyone. The experience was awkward and rude. You cost me $10 but you just lost hundreds in future business (especially considering this one visit was $111 for two people, not including tip). The waitress was very nice and I appreciated her attentiveness. She was kind and brought my friend a birthday dessert which was thoughtful. It's funny the restaurant will bring a complimentary birthday dessert but will make a stink about replacing a $10 drink. I can't support a restaurant that penny pinches and over charges for their meals. It sure is "twisted." read more

My son and I went here for lunch today and they did not disappoint. The coolest thing about Twisted Fork is that they change their menu seasonally so it's never the same tired old thing. I got the Cauliflower Karaage without the aioli to keep it vegan, and it was phenomenal. Their Japanese bbq dipping sauce was crazy yummy, I actually got an extra side to go with my left overs. My son devoured this appetizer with me, which is always a good sign when my carnivore child loves a vegan item. My son got the Brie and Caramelized Onion turkey burger, but he subbed in a real beef patty. His burger came out a perfect medium rare, and as you can see from the photos, he demolished every bite. It was his first trip there, and he loved their battered French fries also. For my meal I got the roasted artichokes with an extra side of the lemon vinaigrette to dunk. Let me tell you, the artichokes were phenomenal but the real star was the crispy fried capers. WHO KNEW!!!! Honestly I would love a bowl of crispy fried capers to eat like popcorn. We had great service. Our waitress was knowledgeable about vegan food. We will definitely be returning. read more

Came to Twisted Fork with my work and sat in the back. It was a Friday afternoon so it was pretty quiet back here. Had scorpion teriyaki chicken wings and meatballs to start. The meatballs are a reasonable size and were seasoned very well. If you're going with a group, you'll probably need two servings. The chicken wings were cooked as close to perfect as they could have been. The meat fell perfectly off the bone. For the main course I had the short rib grilled cheese. Its more grilled cheese lite and closer to a melt. Regardless, it was quite tasty. The fries weren't seasoned super well, but after adding some salt, they were great. read more

Went to dinner with some friends. We made reservations (Friday night) and I was 5 minutes earlier but was able to get seated even if my friends were not there yet :) parking was plentiful. Place was clean and nice...sophisticated but not too much. It was not loud but it was busy. Our server, Tiffany, was very helpful and attentive! My glass of water was never empty -- she memorized the specials and they all sounded yummilicious! We got the appetizer special which was bruschetta with goat cheese, berries, and balsamic vinegar, and it was GOOD! The flavors, sweet from the fruit, savory from the cheese, and tanginess from the vinegar blended well together, none of them were overpowering. Definitely a great place to catch up with friends. read more

We've been traveling and so haven't been able to get to our regular lunch spot in a while. Today I was craving Twisted Fork Fish and Chips, so off we went for Friday lunch. The patio is open, so lots of seating in the bar. GREAT service by Ashley, as always. The Fish and Chips is some of the best in Reno -- light bater but super crispy. Love the jalapeno tartar sauce (and I'm usually a malt vinegar fan). Exceptional cole slaw, good french fries; finished it off with a nice rose'. read more

It has been awhile since we have been to Twisted Fork, but we had a great time with good friends. The menu has changed a little, and the food we got was great! I can only advise people to stick with the beers they know well. I ventured out a little, but thinking back, I should have stuck with my favs. It's good to reconnect with Twisted Fork. When I feel like eating out at a nice restaurant, I will definitely keep this place in mind. read more

Stopping in Reno on our way home to Park City we ended up eating here as it was close to our hotel. Food was decent, service was good and the server was a sweet young lady who took good care of us. My wife ordered the orzo and chicken salad which was served on a bed of fresh spinach. Orzo and the chicken were cooked perfectly and the dressing married well with the ingredients. I went with pasta served with Italian sausage and shrimp. Again, the proteins were cooked correctly and had good flavor. Was quite happy with the shrimp as all to often it is way overcooked. Pasta and sauce were fine, just way to much of it. The starter salad was supposed to be a Cesar but was basically lettuce with shredded parmesan from a bag. At least I got to eat some greens. I look at a place like this as a road food stop. I want decent food, good service, fair price and the Twisted Fork delivers. read more

A local favorite amongst So Reno residents, as it offers a nice ambiance, good service and a great selection of entrees. On this day, we were with friends that were sampling some of the small plates for an upcoming celebration, so we ordered more appetizers than normal. Pastor Pork Tacos - 3 stars - While the pork was fine, good flavor and not too dry, the tortillas were very dry. The chili sauce added the necessary flavor and moisture to make this starter. Tamal de Champinones - 2 stars - I wanted this to be so much better. Beautifully presented, this dish is just hard to eat. The combination of the mushrooms and masa just had a weird flavor. Not my favorite. Roasted Artichokes - 4 stars - While I personally did not try this starter, it looks lovely, and our friends really loved this dish. They all agreed it was the best started that we ordered. Twisted Burger - 2 stars - Normally a must order entree, on this day it was barely eatable. My wife did order the hamburger to be served "medium well", which in fairness is difficult to get right, this burger was a hockey puck of dryness. Porcini Mushroom Ravioli - 3 stars - A black truffle crème fraiche, topped with organic arugula, heirloom tomatoes, basil pesto, finished with parmigiano reggiano and toasted pine nuts. Another dish that I just wanted to be better. For my taste, the Mushroom Ravioli just had an odd flavor. Now the truffle creme fraiche and pine nuts saved this dish. All in all, we've had better at Twisted Fork. A lovely restaurant, just not that great on this day. read more

Good lord.. Maybe it's just that I don't eat such fancy food or maybe the food was just that fantastic. Either way, 10/10 highly recommend. Everything I ordered was amazing. The servers were great too and helped me choose what I ordered. Get the piccata, and tiger shrimp tamal. And the banana cheesecake dessert was delicious. I recommend that you don't wear Crocs and socks and cargo shorts if you go... I might've done that lol. It seems more like what you'd wear on a date. read more

First time eating here and what an experience the food drinks are absolutely delicious. I ended up getting a frank steak, it was tender full of flavor in every bit, needless to say i cleaned up my plate! For your big small plate item we ended up with the cauliflower ceviche.

It definitely brought our experience to a 10, needless to say will be returning to this establishment very soon read more

Food was great. Ordered pull pork sandwich with side salad. Husband ordered salmon taco special. Both rated 5 for the food. Service was great. Only complaint, was it was crowded so got a bar seat, which is fine but got the end seat and everyone going in and out opened the door to cold air. I was cold. Just was the situation at this time, I get it, but didn't give 5 for that reason. read more
