Was in there Friday afternoon with a group of 10, arrived unexpectedly. The staff there was…read moreefficient and gracious, set a long table and had us seated within just a few minutes. Our order was taken and seemingly within 15 minutes we'd all been served. The El Cubano was fantastic, my wife's Blackened Chicken Sandwich the best she'd had anywhere in Nevada and all the rest had the same reaction with their lunch as well. Returned Monday afternoon with a good friend and met with the same results. Outstanding food, fantastic staff, excellent location and well priced. Highly recommend.

It came out looking amazing taste was good but nothing special. The ur server was nice but not very attentive and after a while we had to go find her to place our orders.

Tucked into an inconspicuous corner awning between a motel & an Indian restaurant, the untrained…read moreeye might miss the entrance to Pele Utu altogether. The doors open into an pocket sized oasis right here in our own dry AF high-desert air; a dimly lit collection of tropical plants, puffer fish, ukelele music and aloha shirts. Its like a fever dream - the lovechild of Elvis Hawaiian movies and a trippy classic Disneyland ride, punctuated by neon and heavy cigarette smoke. The drink menu is extensive & eccentric. The establishment's proprietor, Dr. Shocker, perpetually clad in floral print and signature straw hat, is a fixture at the corner of the bar. He tells great stories. This is a true Reno hidden gem, and harkens to a simpler era of the classic Tiki bar, strong drinks, and living on island time. Go get drinks, get some samosas from next door...and get an Uber home. You'll need it.

Pele Utu did a fun job decorating their space! I love the tiny bridge at the entrance…read more As expected the tiki drinks are strong- particularly the punch bowls. I love the variety on offer and there are some unique options I've never had before. I'm looking forward to going back to try more!! I'm no tiki expert and I've never met a tiki I didn't enjoy but I think this is a great addition to the bar options in Reno.

Some friends and I have been to this place a few times to grab a quick bite for lunch…read more Anytime we need to break away from the office and have a grilled burger fast, but not your traditional "fast-food" this is where we like to go. Today I had a Jalapeño Cheeseburger w/ Bacon and it was REALLY GOOD. Their service has always been great! If you get a chance to talk to Char, she can give you good recommendations on many of their menu items. She's always met us with a smile and great spirits every time we come in. Some people might complain about the smoke, but you do have to keep in mind that it is a Bar and Grille in Reno. They do also offer a larger, non-smoking section for many of their guests to enjoy their meals smoke-free. If you're in the neighborhood and want a friendly atmosphere with great service and a good menu with a variety of traditional American cuisine, don't dismiss this place before giving it a try for yourself!

The TL;DR is that Gold River is a locals dive bar with cool bartenders, gambling, two pool tables,…read morean AMI jukebox, darts machine that works sometimes, and proudly serves cheap drinks 24/7. And they allow smoking/vaping. Gold River caters to its crowd, the people of Lemmon Valley. It serves cheap well, bottles of Coors Lite and Modelo Especial, and the most exotic thing they carry is High Noon. That's not to say they don't have some fine selections of whisky or tequila, but that's not their crowd. This is an after work bar, not a tourist bar. Cocktails need to be Googled, sometimes drinks or ingredients are out of stock, and the bartenders will tell you off if you're being a problem. Gold River is open 24/7, and all the bartenders are cool. I've had the pleasure of being served by all of them at some point, and they're always looking out for their regulars and their bar. The age range of the customers is generally the 40+ crowd, with a few working 30 somethings that come in from time to time. The bar doesn't serve food, but there are plenty of food options less than a minute walk nearby (Roy's next door, Tacos Jalisco, and Taco T truck). Did I mention the bar allows smoking? They do have air cleaners inside, but consider yourself warned. Two APA pool league teams play out of Gold River, so it can be a little crowded on some nights, but they're good people and if you're looking for a team, you might find one here. And that's about it. If you live in the North Valleys and you're looking for a late night dive, a beer after work, or even just a coin table to practice pool on, Gold River's a pretty great dive bar, and I'm proud to call it my dive bar.

Went to this spot because my friend Evan S.'s band was playing here. Partial good rating for having…read morethe great idea to hire that band heh Kind of wish I had tried the food truck instead of going to a restaurant down the street, food looked good. Thankful that they had a couple of NA beer styles. Service was fine- first stop at the bar the bartender told me she was just filling in.. I don't know why that information was relevant?
