Taken aback. That's the phrase that keeps running through my mind…read more First, I was taken aback the moment I walked in ... by the friendliness and welcoming nature of Sunny's (and Sunny herself). For whatever reason, I keep flashing back to Flo from Mel's Diner. Not because of the sass, but because of the warmth. Every single person who walked through that door seemed like her best friend. When I was leaving, I told her what a delight she was, and she responded, "I love what I do. Does it show?" Yep, sure does. Second, I was taken aback by my breakfast. Now, to be fair, I didn't actually read the menu closely. I'd been up and out of my house by 5:30 a.m. to shoot the sunrise along the river. I'd had a LOT of coffee, so I just ordered water (though now that I read other reviews, I realize I missed out), and I thought, "I'll just go a little on the lighter side and order a breakfast sandwich." Ha! I expected maybe an amped-up version of an Egg McMuffin, but what I received was the behemoth you see posted here. I'm not a gravy person, so I can't speak to that, but I CAN tell you this sandwich was so ridiculously delicious, I can't imagine anyone wanting to add ANYTHING to it. I could only eat half and brought the other half home to my husband, who, even after it spent a couple days in the fridge, said it was truly excellent. It's a bit of a drive from the Carson Valley, but I'm pretty sure they'll be seeing me again.

Ambiance its nicely nostalgic. The paraphernalia that was under the tabletop glass in the old booths is now framed and on the walls, along with the various signs and artwork. The new place is more spacious, with more tables and booths, which Shannon continues to service with her exuberant charm. They get just as busy (even busier) than at the old location, so anticipate a wait during prime hours. It's worth it. Note to Dick G.: They have prices listed on the menu now, and they are no longer cash only. Come on back.

Most places simply throw whatever is on the grill on the plate regarding the hash browns and that's that. It took a little extra time to cook those hash browns the way I liked them and the cook knocked it out of the ballpark. The eggs were perfectly over easy, toast is perfectly toasted, the patty sausage was delicious and not super greasy. I'll definitely be eating here again.

The obvious bakery items are gorgeous. Her sourdough bread is entirely sourdough. No added yeast. Giant point for me. As I've recently discovered, some of our great sourdough establishments have small, tiny signs that state, added yeast. Anneke "Darling Bakery" offers Some yummy sandwiches and I had the pastrami. It was delicious! The bread was cut to the perfect slice. Not too thick, not too thin. While here, the girls were walking around with a variety of local sourced ice cream samples. Yum! I loved the T-Shirt Anneke was wearing so had to buy one. Support local Bakers & Farmers is a beautiful graphic in the back. I'll wear it proudly. I noticed they have a chest freezer full of locally sourced beef product and while perusing the choice cuts found beef fat, the kind used for making Tallow.

I feel a bit bad saying this but honest reviews are what make Yelp feel trustworthy so I gotta say…read moreI wasn't all that impressed. The pastries we tried were light and flaky on the outside but weren't consistently light throughout the whole pastry like other popular bakeries in Reno we've tried. And perhaps it's my personal tastes but these just weren't as sweet-- which if you like things more mildly sweet this might actually be your speed. It was a bit of a drive to get out here and while it was visually exciting inside I felt a bit rushed (even though there was no one behind us). It would have been nice if the employees could have proactively described the pastries to us because I think it was pretty apparent that we were first time visitors with our "ooos" and "ahhs" as we entered. I also asked about a few of the drinks and was encouraged to try the horchata frappe. I didn't taste any coffee in it and again it stuck with the theme of mildly sweet. I have to admit I was not a fan of the texture, something about the high cinnamon and blended ice volume almost made it feel like I was drinking wet sand. I would not order that again. We also asked for a cup of water but were never given one (perhaps they forgot?). In short, I'm not against trying Anneke's one more time if I'm out that way (maybe a cinnamon roll would be more to my sweet tooth preferences and I could try a different coffee) but my experience this time was a 3 out of a 5. The patio outside wasn't bad. The shade was nice on a hot morning and the flowers on the table were a nice touch so I'd say the ambiance was good. Some soft playing music could have been a nice touch.

I'm not…read morea regular coffee drinker, but I was looking to get my iced brew fix and there aren't many options in town. You have to drive into Reno or Carson City to hit up a Starbucks or comparable coffee place. I heard from locals about The Roasting House. I saw pics of celebrities like Terrance Howard and Jeremy Renner sitting on the quaint little bar stools inside. Roasting House has officially entered the coffee chat room! On my first visit, I saw that the Iced Brew special was Carrot Cake. Um? Only my favorite cake! I had the best timing and hit the jackpot! Of course that's what I ordered. It was delicious! The decor is absolutely adorable. It's like a beautiful Victorian feel to it. It has beautiful furniture, pictures on the wall, and they have coffee, jewelry for sale and other items. Additionally, they roast their coffee beans on-site with a large vintage roasting machine towards the back of the shop. The place definitely has an elegant, antique-like ambience that fits perfectly with VC. They also serve various baked goods, bagel sandwiches and other breakfast items. You will have a great start to your day by coming here first. Service is impeccable and the staff is super friendly. As you go towards the rear of the shop, there is a beautiful patio that overlooks Virginia city and the streets below C Street. It's a perfect place to sit and enjoy your morning coffee and breakfast item. It's very peaceful with beautiful scenery and they've added some rustic patio furniture. I've been back a couple times and the prices are really good. I'm from the Bay Area and compared to where I'm from the prices are more than reasonable for coffee. This is a place not to be missed when you visit Virginia City!

Sadly, it's not on the specials this month. I decided to try the fish and chips instead.

My late parents always told me that some of the best food comes out of the casinos. Since they…read moreloved visiting Reno (primarily for gambling purposes), they always got an amazing prime rib or lobster dinner for a very affordable price. This takes me to the city of Fernley, NV (about 30 minutes east of Reno) where I had the opportunity in trying out "Ranch House Restaurant". This restaurant is adjacent to the "Silverado Casino" which is only a small handful of operating casinos in the Fernley area. We were both very hungry as we ventured through South Lake Tahoe, Carson City, and Virginia City, our appetite grew as the evening went on. After checking into our nearby hotel (which was luckily 1/3 mile from here) and getting washed up, we made it to the restaurant at around 7:15pm on Friday 6/19/2026. Upon entry, the interior layout looks straight out of the 1970's complete with posh booth seating, wood panels, and brick walls in a very spacious dining area. This is quite reminiscent of the old school casino restaurants in the more prominent Reno casino restaurants; mainly Silver Legacy and Nugget. Once seated, we were given two menus and requested an iced water (for myself) and a Diet Coke (for her). One minor drawback which could be a make it or break it for many is that the internal temperature of this restaurant was quite cold. My guess is that it was only around 66°F so if you plan to dine-in, come dressed accordingly! I will say that the menu is quite extensive with ton of options to choose from. This includes appetizers, all-day breakfast, soups, salads, sandwiches, burgers, and a lot of excellent entrée choices. After making my way through the entire menu of options, I settled with the "Grilled Salmon" entrée (priced at $18.99). This consisted of a house salad, a 6 oz. filet drizzled with balsamic glaze, steamed veggies (mainly zucchini and squash), and I opted for a baked potato (that came with butter & sour cream). She chose their "Old Fashioned Cheeseburger" (priced at $12.99) which came with lettuce, tomato, pickle, & onion on a brioche bun. She opted for cheddar as her choice of cheese and the burger came with a side of seasoned steak fries. Total time took roughly 15 minutes from when we placed our orders to when we received our food. I will say this; the food here is quite delicious. My salmon was a very thick cut and at less than $20 for a salad and full entrée, you absolutely get your moneys worth. The veggies had excellent texture while my baked potato was piping hot. This isn't a 5-star dining experience with a very no-frills atmosphere but it is your above average casino food that is eerily similar to other restaurants that are adjacent to casinos that I've dined at over the decades. Our waitress, Cassandra was very polite and professional while the ambiance, price, and food was definitely above average. My rating for "Ranch House Restaurant" in Fernley, NV is a respectable four stars.
