    This steakhouse is a little hidden in the back. It is close to the Baja Deli and the Gift shop. There is a wall between the Casino and the Steakhouse. It has a wonderful and quiet ambience. It has always had great food for a great price. It's a little hidden but well worth the drive. Hard to believe it's been almost ten years since we last ate here. Service has always been wonderful. There were 8 of us in our party. We came to celebrate two birthdays and to try the early bird special. Our waiter, Chris, was wonderful. Thanks, Chris, for making our visit so wonderful. The early bird special is a 6 oz. Filet Mignon in a demi glace and three jumbo shrimp, mashed potatoes, and seasonal vegetables for $29 with a player's card. That is a great price. It is regularly $40.00. First, some of us started with soup. My daughter and son raved about the French onion soup. My husband and I had the Lobster bisque. The lobster had a lot of lobster in it. It was a surprise to see how much lobster was in the soup. After the soup palate cleanser, Raspberry sorbet that comes with or without Champagne. All but one had it with Champagne. The steak is seasoned well and cooked to perfection (medium rare). I savored every delectable bite. It was so tender; It could have cut it with a fork. It pairs well with mashed potatoes and the green beans that came with the meal. We all raved about our meals and said we would be back. Not to mention it was beautifully presented and styled on the plate. My sister-in-law's Halibut was superior. The flavor was divine. The size of the fillet was huge. See my photo. It was moist and tender. She said it was one of the best she had ever had. My uncle-in-law had the Shrimp linguine which he loved. He was not able to eat the huge meal. He had leftovers which he brought home. The two birthday people received a birthday cheesecake with the words Happy Birthday on it. Our party decided to get the Chocolate Toffee Mousse Cake and Tiramisu. Both were rich and decadent. The toffee mousse cake was like a fudge mousse. Definitely a go-to if you like chocolate desserts. The Tiramisu was the hands-down favorite. The Tiramisu was so beautifully plated. See the photo. Everyone had a bite and was quite full and pleased when we left. Be sure to call for reservations for parties larger than four. Needless to say, Chris is an excellent waiter. Thank you, Chris, for making our visit so lovely.

    Lobster bisque

    Honest dine-in review: 5/5 would recommend the early bird special if you're looking for a good meal away from the crowds. ***Note for the manager: Please.... And I mean please update your menu to include tree nut allergy for your chocolate mousse cake... you don't want that to be a liability issue in the future. Thankful Chris your server had our back and checked before I took a bite... (tree but allergy) -lobster bisque: 4.5/5 Not too creamy, rich enough to savor the flavors, and enough lobster in your soup as it's intended to be. I would recommend the cup over the bowl as you seem to get a good amount of soup in the cup. 5/5 for flavor but knocking it down as I just felt like the bowl should have had more than the cup. Just an observation that I thought I'd share if you're considering this as an appetizer. -Early bird special: 5/5 6 oz filet, vegetable of the day, prawns with a great sauce, and a true mash of potatoes. Yes. For $29.99 you can't go wrong with this combination. Add a sorbet palette refresher and top it off with champagne. You're given an experience with this meal that should cost more but you order it for the early bird special. The flavors are true and not masked by a bunch of seasonings or sauces, the beet is rich and carries a good Maillard reaction with the steak, the vegetables are fresh and flavorful, the prawns are rich and taste fresh, and potatoes are nice, smooth, with a bite that makes this a true mash. Tiramisu: 5/5 Simple. Decadent. Coffee forward and just a good bite to end the night. Chocolate forward without compromise of the coffee. Just a good bite. Compliments to the waiter Chris as he was accountable, attentive, and caring. From accounting for the missing plate which was handed to a different table, to refilling our drinks accordingly, and knowing his menu to help our dietary needs at the table. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This was an amazing experience for a little drive away to a nice, cozy, and quiet steakhouse experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thank you boomtown!

    Service was some of the best I have ever had! Our waiter John was so attentive and never seemed put out by our neediness! My husband also said he made the best old fashioned he's ever had!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great place to dine.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The chef is a culinary artist/genius. Very good experience. Even the palate cleanser. The bread... ugh. Delicious. Your food arrives looking like it came from a magazine shoot. Amazing. Just amazing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great ambience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Not too loud.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Lovely staff.

    *Late Edit* Apparently we've eaten here before a few years back from a picture of a bottle of wine I bought, so I don't know why I don't have a review from that visit, but that being said, it was obviously good enough for us to return! We used to come to Boomtown pretty often... We live in the next town over, and it's been a while so we had a night out. Made reservations for 7:15pm, even though they're really not necessary mid week. We've eaten a quite a few high end steakhouses all around the country, so even though this is technically fine dining, the Ribeye wasn't the best, she wasn't too fond of the salmon, but overall very fair pricing for the food selection and quality. We were greeted by 2 nice hostesses, and seated. We interacted with a LOT of the waitstaff, and they were ALL definitely 5 star. Very attentive and professional. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant itself is pretty nice. Perfect lighting, nice, classy decorum, gives off a great upscale restaurant feeling.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered a cocktail, and a glass of isosceles cab to go with my supper. I think it was around $20 a glass, but didn't look or feel like a standard glass, volumetrically. We ordered the calamari for an appetizer. Not my favorite, and didn't even finish it, but it was ok. She ordered the beet salad. I tried it. It was REALLY good, but the beets needed to be bigger. In between courses they brought us a pallette cleanser, with sherbert and prosecco. TOTALLY unexpected, and that alone warrants 1 star itself. Like i said earlier, she wasn't too big on the salmon. I tried it and it was ok. She ate a bit and got a to-go for the rest, which the server boxed for her, another grand gesture, but the next day we only ate 1/2 of the potato and tossed the rest. My steak was cooked PERFECTLY. BUT it wasn't really seasoned, and kind of bland. The butter on it, however, was off the chain. Would've been nice to have more seasoning, but it is what it is. I took the rest home and ate it the next morning. This place definitely beats the steakhouse at Bonanza, but falls short of Anthony's chop house and Atlantis, but like i said, for the price, does the trick. It wasn't GREAT, but good enough to go back to next time we're at Boomtown. ***DISCLAIMER*** This pure, uncut, honest review is federally protected under Federal Law by way of Bill #EO14149.

    This steakhouse is a sleeper in the Reno area. The food was incredible. Service was great, albeit the server did admit he was wildly hungover, still did an amazing job. We did have a bottle of wine with dinner but that confession might have been off putting to some folks. Regardless, Boomtown has a gem of a steakhouse. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Another thing to note is the steakhouse is closed off from the casino which is great to keep the smoke out![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Warm, damp towels for after dinner hand cleaning-nice touch!

    This was our first visit to Boomtown Steakhouse and we were very pleasantly surprised by how good it was. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service was excellent by entire staff and it's decorated very nice with a peaceful atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I am sometimes concerned about eating at restaurants located in Casinos because of the cigarette smoke but the ventilation was good enough in the restaurant that I couldn't smell any smoke odor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We started with a shrimp cocktail and a Caesar salad which were both very fresh and flavorful. The complimentary bread basket which accompanied it was a nice touch. For entrees we chose the salmon and chicken Marsala. The salmon had a nice, light sauce that added to the flavor and the chicken Marsala was tender with a wonderful Marsala sauce. The pasta Alfredo that accompanied it was also very good and I like that they have a good selection of starches. The sherbet/champagne palette cleanser was delightful and loved the little dessert tasters of what I believe was lemon cake. Very enjoyable experience!

    Early bird. Steak and Jumbo shrimp

    Tried their early bird special. Great value, great service. When you come early, it's not too busy either - was seated right away without a reservation.

    Ok buddy recommend this place. It didn't start off good. The waitress who was bringing us water dumped a whole glass of water on me. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We had to move tables it was everywhere my pants were soaked.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our waiter was awesome. The food was good and the service was good. Cheers

    Saw a sign when checking out Boomtown that they had a 29 dollar early bird special if you have a players card...so we signed up and went. Very pretty little steakhouse with good service. The special is 6oz filet with shrimp, mashed potatoes and vegetable. I started off with a glass of Cabernet and hub got a non alcohol beer, one he has never had before and he quite enjoyed it. Food came piping hot and was really good..I personally loved the shrimp more than the steak, and hub loved the steak. Also came with a basket of hot bread. Will definitely be back..what a steal!!!

    Boomtown Mixed Grill
    Jordan F.

    First time dining here, and we had a pretty good experience! Ambiance was okay - I didn't feel like I was in an actual steakhouse, it was fairly casual and pretty loud inside. Ordered the boomtown mixed grille, it was okay, my favorite part was the sauce they put on the meats. The filet was definitely overcooked for me and was very dry. The lamb was cooked fantastically, and that was the best meat on the plate. Palate cleansers are always yummy, which was sorbet topped with champagne. The complimentary bread was delicious, it was warm and the butter was soft. No issues with service, nothing special to note.

    Jeanne N.

    Stopped in for dinner because a friend recommended it to us. We ordered the dinner special, fillet and shrimp. Dinner was fabulous. Filet was cooked to Perfection with a beef glaze and the extra large shrimp scampi were buttery and creamy. Served with green beans with mini onions and mashed potatoes. I also sampled a raspberry lemon drop that was refreshing. The champagne sorbet palate cleanser was a nice touch, as were the warm towels for cleanup after the meal. Service was also attentive and polite, appearing as needed and not intrusive. An excellent experience for an excellent price of under $30. We will be back for sure!

This time I'm here with my crew that I met up with in Sacramento on our way on 80 East heading towards Salt Lake City.

The inside looks just like it always did with that Sasquatch statue standing there. The service is super friendly and we all order drinks. No beer this time, we're all on the road and some of us gotta drive. I decide to get something different this time, the steamed clams. My guys get 2 of the steak sandwiches, one gets fish and chips and the one other girl on the crew gets a chicken salad of some sort. The food arrives in a decent amount of time. My clams look delicious, though I thought the clams were on the small side, but there were a lot of them. The steak sandwiches looked good as usual as did the fish and chips. Next time I think I might go back to the steak sandwich. The clams really didn't fill me up, but I got some fries off one of the guys. Sasquatch is still on my list of best places to stop to eat when traveling the 80 near Reno.

I have a yardstick, if beer and wine is ordered prior to the meal, seems very likely that a second drink would be a common-sense follow-up question by a thoughtful waiter. Nope, a simple draft beer and wine took abnormally long to arrive. And, I agree with the other observations that suggest "recognized guests" are more promptly attended to. Billing: 2 Stars as you'll want to check your total for an automatically charged service fee associated with a credit card. Admittedly, the waiter said they remove the fee if paying by cash, but nowhere on the bill is this stated. Think of how eateries have a statement on the bill about a default tip when serving large parties, so I know the technology exists to print this information. Why not be up front with your paying customers? My contacts in the food service industry continue to tell me that "cash is king". . . Fundamentally, the owners of Chop 40 are sitting on the proverbial goldmine as the unique atmosphere and setting, along with a unique menu set this establishment apart. However, the sub-part service is such a large distraction that they risk alienating long-time, Reno-area customers. Should Chop 40 loose it's kitchen skills, then it's game over!

The bacon could've used some work from my wife's plate lol but other than that, everything was super good.
