Another fantastic visit to Armando & Sons for lunch! For a non-smash burger in a fast-casual…read moreenvironment, this is your place! I ordered a BBQ burger at the counter and added an extra patty as well as some chicken tenders and fries for the kids. Service was quick and friendly. I've never had an issue with Armando's service! Truly- the quality of the food here can't be beat. Freshly ground meat, selection between beef, elk, and bison, and high-quality ingredients all the way down to the produce. Sometimes a thick, juicy burger is just what you want. You won't find a puny smashed patty here. Only delicious, perfectly cooked, thick patties. The extra $6 to make it a double is totally worth it. I was even impressed by the fries! Super crispy and well seasoned. The chicken tenders were not overcooked, as you find at many places. The chicken was still very moist while maintaining a crispy exterior. Great choice for your butchery needs, but also a great place to grab some very tasty lunch!

We don't get to visit this shop too often, but it looks like the last time it was there was two…read moreyears ago. And it was actually two years of the date because we were there for Mother's Day as well. We decided to make it a day of visiting different restaurants so we decided to split a couple burgers and some fries. The burgers turned out to be amazing and my kids love them and my wife loved hers. There was four of us that split two burgers, which was honestly more than enough for us because we were going from a place to place. We did have a small issue and a very comical issue that we accidentally ordered four baskets of fries rather than four sides of fries. No I'm not sure if this was our fault or the gentleman upfront hitting the wrong button. But after speaking with the owner, Chris, he took care of it for us. Thank you for the amazing service.

Alec Crosby was recommended to me by my favorite butcher, George, when I reached out interested in…read morebuying a share of beef in February. Alec raises his cattle in Fernley so super local, the cows are happy cows not trucked to feedlots at the end of their life cycle. They have good lives, these are the things that I appreciate as a meat eater. And yes I do know all beef is finished on grain, but there's a difference in mixing grass and grain in fields etc. I ordered through his website, super easy. I got a 1/4 of beef, after trimming and cutting, I ended up with around 110 lbs of beef. The percentages of certain types of meat described on his website, ended up being spot on for me. Yes, I wrote down every package, weighed them and created a spreadsheet haha. The packages came wrapped in saran wrap then butcher paper with a stamp of the type of cut. I like knowing what the weight is so a print out sticker with that would be preferred personally in the future, but I just wrote the weight on each package. I kept in touch with Alec and he was very adamant about quality and my happiness He said if it wasn't anything less than amazing, he'd get me a new one. I have the messages for proof, but to be honest, even if I wasn't 100% happy, I could never do that to a small business over possibly small qualms. He cheered me on when I sent him some pics of my first meals with the meat I got from him. He is a young guy, expanding his long run, multi generational family business. On Facebook he showed that he was opening up a store front and I couldn't be more excited for him and for Reno. This is a dream basically, to have local sources of meat, in affordable prices. And I appreciate his ability to take a chance and try to bring back some of the good things from older genertions like neighborhood butcher shops. I suggest giving him a try when you need a butcher or want a beef share for the family if you have the room. It ends up being incredibly worth it cost wise in the long run even though it can be intimidating for an upfront cost. In the end, we have been going through our beef pretty slow, I still have around 50% of it left, and haven't bought beef at a store since February. I've eaten some new meals, cooked cuts in new ways and learned to like hamburger again (because this stuff is tasty and not close to store bought). I haven't had any bad cuts, and I feel so good eating this beef, supporting local business and new generations.

I just received my first order for 1/2 cow and it was a wonderful experience. Alec walked me…read morethrough the process of what to do and gave me a date when the butcher would contact me for cutting instructions. The butcher called on the date given and was very helpful in guiding me with what I wanted the most. Keighley, who was handling the delivery contacted me the same day to secure the delivery day and time which was 01/01/24 at 4:00. She reverified the day before delivery to confirm all was still good and delivered on time. I was so impressed with how professional, friendly and dialed in the entire team was. Great communication!!! I can't say enough good things about this company and I will continue to use them and let others know about how great they are. Going to try the Korean Ribs tonight.

We ordered ribeye steaks and 80/20 half pound hamburgers. As the case was limited, we came back in 1.5 hours. Beautiful steaks and burgers were presented. Today we pan fried the half pound hamburgers. Pan fried with Montreal steak seasoning, topped with blue cheese and covered with Swiss cheese. These perfectly cooked medium rare burgers were the focus of the evening. Toasted ciabatta rolls with a smear of mayonnaise and barbecue sauce, the hamburger laid awaiting more layers. Sliced avocado, diced red onions, sautéed garlic mushrooms, spinach spring mixed options. Create your own. Served with perfectly seasoned potato salad. Now that's what a homemade burger is all about.

Plus La Chiquita, I think, has a better selection and quality of baked goods that you won't find in Toro De Oro. Like I said, both of the stores are good and have their strong points.

Easy in and easy out. I wish this place had avocado salsa though. I tried their mocha tres leches cake. Oh man is it good. I'm hooked. You got to try it. The prices aren't too bad either.
