    May be best happy hour in town with great food and cheap drinks. Special Happy hour menu. The Tide wings are my favorite. Poker machine at the bar and TVs everywhere to watch your favorite game.

    So it's been a very long time since I've been at this restaurant. A.k.a. bar a.k.a. hangout a.k.a. if you're not a local then you're not gonna get served the way locals get served. Which service should be the same way no matter what. The people running the TVs wanted to make sure that the locals had what TVs they wanted to have. I wasn't too impressed, but the food is really good. I enjoyed the wings which were a pineapple Asian wing, and I also really enjoyed the Tider Tots tossed in their spicy hot sauce! It's a very clean restaurant just the staff is not 100%. I would definitely give the staff probably 70 maybe at best.

    If I want a good place to hang out, grab some food, and have fun, this Flowing Tide has been my go to. You can sit yourself, and service is fast and friendly. They got the sports bar tv set up as well as some pool tables. Clientele are interactive. Food is typical bar food, so not impressive. I get the beer-battered calamari which is fairly tasty. Batter is not too thick, and the meat is chewy. Their sauce is quite good with a bit of spicy kick to it. Depending on how many drinks I get, I spend $15-$30

    $7 nachos from happy hour
    Edward R.

    The best happy hour bar none! 7 dollars will get you the largest nachos! These nachos are stuffed with cheese, meat (I get ground beef) topped with pico, guacamole and a dab of sour cream. 100% recommended the serice is fantastic and fast almost never busy. Love the decorations with the big ship wheel! The arcade is kinda lame but w.e. the kids like the stickers and temp tattoo machines.

    We eat here quite often. The food is tasty, service is friendly and efficient, and the atmosphere is relaxed pirate sports bar and grill. Favorite menu items are the fish and chips, apple gorgonzola salad, tuna melt, burgers and breakfasts.

    One of the best fish sandwiches I've ever had. Hot and crispy Everything was so tasty. I love the locals vibe. Food portions are large. The servers are young and energetic. They were busy but still able to attentive to everyone.

    This is our favorite of all the Flowing Tides. It's closer to our house than some other ones which makes it convenient. The service is awesome. They're very attentive and nice. They have great football Sunday deals on food and drinks. Wings, sandwiches, fries, all good. I haven't had any bad food here The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because it reminds me of a casino a bit. There's no open windows so it's a bit dark inside. That's just a personal a preference though

    What happened to the theme days? And the hiring standards?…read more I used to frequent Twin Peaks weekly for a multitude of reasons - the wings are the best from a sports bar in Reno, the ICE cold beer, Whisky selection, the great service, and - of course - the atmosphere, but have minimized going to maybe once a month. TP Reno started off great. A great sports bar experience found in any of their locations, nationwide. Now? The food quality is a roller coaster. Gone are the theme days/weekends outside of the way overdone cowboy/rodeo Fridays. Gone are the hiring standards - yes, corporate has standards set. If it were not for some (definitely not all) of the great servers/bar tenders - Danica, Willow, Lucci, Brooke and a couple of others - along with the ice cold beer, and all the TVs, TP Reno would be just another average sports bar... The owners need to step it back up, or this will be just another failed restaurant due to poor leadership.

Those girls must wear, if you call it, underwear or lingerie. Shane is the manager, a really nice, down-to-earth kind of guy. He runs a tight ship and knows his business like the back of his hand. The food is pretty good, affordable, and tasty. If a big game or sports event is scheduled to be televised, you won't be able to get near the place. So be prepared. Otherwise, the place is huge with plenty of seats. The food is always consistent, with many items from scratch. My suggestion is to give it a try. Whether by yourself or with a bunch of friends over some beers. Oh, by the way, it's got a huge bar surrounded by T.V.'s to kick back and watch your favorite event. Give it a try. You just might like the place.

    It was such a beautiful day.... where can we eat outside?…read more I found "The Spot", its in the old Smee's location on the river. When we showed up, we asked if we could sit at a table outside, the guy was a little overwhelmed, he said "I can sit you in 10 mins". I said "can we have this table". OK, but....just know I'll be with you as soon as I get caught up, I'm totally fine with that I said. . He bought us a couple menus to look over. Then a table on the railing with shade opened up, I didn't care about the table was dirty with dishes, so we decided to move. I love to look at the river and watch the people go by. The server said, I'll be over soon! He was never so happy when Sierra showed up to help him out. He came over to our table I said "I hope you don't mind, I moved to be in the shade, I know I'm one of those pain in the ass customers". Then he started joking with me and it was the perfect ice breaker. My server and part owner's name is Casey! He is an awesome guy and such a hard worker to ensure his customers are taken care of. I love that. We had a couple beers, he has quite the selection of beers on tap, he supports the community breweries such as Lead Dog and Revisions. My husband had the breakfast burrito $13, it was huge with homemade tortilla chips with salad and guacamole. I had the fish and chips. You get three large pieces of fish, fries and yummy coleslaw. I love how they put the tater sauce and ketchups in personal cups for you that shows class. My fish was absolutely delicious better than the old Smees and especially the new location. You get a nice meal for $20. They have indoor, outdoor, bar seating. They have a little merch area and a gaming bar if you feel lucky. I know the Open Championship Bowlers are in town, if you're looking for nice comfort food "tavern style" location this is the place for you on the Reno Riverwalk 50 N Sierra. It upstairs.

I was definitely in the mood to try something new. After some searching The Spot is what caught our eye. Located by the river and where Reef and Smees used to be. including what you ordered or used, Since this was a new spot we decided to just order and share a ton of appetizers. This included: cup of cream of mushroom soup, pretzel bites, spinach dip, poutine fries and Brussel sprouts. 2/5 were a huge hit where the orders we would not try again. Cup of mushroom soup: cup size is a good appetizer portion, good mushroom taste but WAY too salty. Would not order again. Pretzel bites: SUPER YUM! Slightly crunchy at the corners and fluffy inside. Perfectly bite sized and great dips (cheese and mustard). Loved these and would absolutely order again. Spinach dip: not a fan. The one thing I did like about this is that the dip portion was extremely generous, but I was not a fan of the taste. For me it was like slightly watered down sour cream. You have the options of chips or baguette. We went with baguette and for the first time in my life, the dipping vessels were very scant compared to the amount of dip so if anyone orders this, I would recommend it with chips. Would not order again. Poutine fries: YUM! Definitely a shareable portion. Thin fries topped with yummy breaded cheese curds and piping hot gravy this was my favorite thing. The gravy was perfectly salted and I loved the breaded cheese curds. I do wish the fries were thicker, like a wedge cut but honestly these were insanely good. Will order again. Brussel sprouts: made with bacon which is always a must for that yummy flavor. Also drizzled with balsamic which is a win in my book. These were very tender and delicious but very oily or greasy which kind of gave me the ick but flavor was definitely there. Will not order again. We were seated immediately upon arriving and waters were brought out. Orders were taken quickly and food came out quick! However after the food came out, no one came to check on us, see how we were doing or clear plates. We were always having to flag someone down for refills, napkins and the check. It wasn't busy. The inside is clean, has a large bar area and outdoor seating. Also lots of TVs. I don't think I'll be returning, but I do recommend the poutine fries and pretzel bites. Things to note: Have to walk up stairs to enter. No private parking lot, have to street park and a lot of parking is metered. 9:00 am to 6:00 pm Monday - Saturday & free on Sundays / holidays.

Today, I finally made it happen! Pictured here is the unbelievably delicious Oklahoma Smash Burger :D Shane, the owner and chef, and his staff are always so friendly and inviting. Honestly, I'd still come here even if the food weren't amazing--but thankfully, it absolutely is. I am embarrassed to admit I was skeptical the first time I heard about the chicken skin nachos, but the moment I tried them, I was hooked. They remind me of the freshest chicharrónes and give the nachos the perfect crispy texture. The Cajun queso and andouille sausage on top are incredible. I've had just about everything on the menu, and not once have I been disappointed. GET THE SALTED BUTTER PECAN ICE CREAM!! You will most likely be too stuffed to eat it there, but take some home. It'll be the best decision you ever make. If I had one complaint, it would only be that they get very busy on weekends, so it can be tough to grab a table. I highly recommend making a reservation!

The fried oyster mushrooms were great! Super crispy and toothsome, the sauce was sticky and oh so good. They stayed crunchy even taking them home. Now, the best part was the last part: ice cream. They had a great choice of flavors, making it hard to decide. So we got a flight with three flavors! The ice cream flights will have us returning for a cool treat any time of year.

    Went again. Ordered the beef and cheddar sandwich along with the brussel sprouts…read more The sandwich, even on gluten free bread, was crusted with cheese. Amazing job there. The sauce was custom. However, I do not like their barbeque sauce. That barbeque sauce was mixed in. It simply is not good in my opinion. It tastes like sugar. It ruined the nachos and semi ruined the sandwich. There was other stuff in the sauce as well, but the sweetness came through and made it taste like sugar. The beef itself also wasn't the greatest. Had that distinct iron taste to it. The brussel sprouts weren't really crispy or charred. The bitter brussel sprout flavor kind of overpowered everything else. I will say that I think the balsamic vinegar was average. It was a reduction, right? So it was thicker, which made it similar to a decent balsamic vinegar instead of the cheap watery stuff practically every place serves. What can I say? It looked like a pile of ingredients rather than a dish. Just like the nachos. The tortilla chips were fantastic. I tried the salsa this time around. It wasn't bad, but it tasted too much like sweet tomato to me. I will say that the food here isn't your typical fried cheap bar food. However, I will say that it isn't at the top either. The prices are a bit cheaper than the most expensive bar & grill food you can get in reno, so the quality for the price is quite reasonable.

Robb Dr. has been the home base for at least 15. Sure we've had good and not-so-great experiences, but this was...odd. I sit down at a non-machine bar spot to order a drink and take out. the bartender ignores me for a good five minutes (ok...maybe he's catching up on drink orders though it wasn't overly busy. Steady, not slammed- but no biggie). Finally approaches me and...just stands there. No greeting, no FIFA specials, no menus, no nothing. After I said "hi, how are you doing" he skipped the pleasantries and asked what I wanted (I'm not kidding- not even a "hello"). I asked if he could remind me what brands they carried for my drink since he didn't bother to grab menus. He listed two of them and then said "I don't know the rest." Ummmm...ok? I know its not either of those I want, but cannot remember the name to save my life. I kind of just waited for him to figure it out- like what do you say to that? Then he actually referred to the menu, gave me the rest of the options and I decided. He goes to grab it and apparently was shouting at me from across the bar (I didn't realize he was speaking to me as I was texting my kids for their food order). He comes back to me and yells AT me that they ran out. I say I'll try a different one. He brings it and ignores me for a while then asks if I want food. Yes. I ordered a happy hour appetizer. The order was correct and delivered in a timely manner by a nice server (yay). Asks if I want another drink. Sure. Can I also place a to go order? I order a pizza. He asks what size. I tell him. He walks away to the register. Looks at me after a minute and doesn't say anything. I take this to mean he wants the toppings info?? I think?? I take a chance and say pepperoni and sausage. He literally rolls his eyes and yells at me (again) "I said WHAT SIZE!" Hasn't changed, sir. "Still want a large!!" (yes I realize he may not have heard me the first time, but at this point I felt like it was time to match the energy). Does not ask if i want anything else or ranch or peppers/parm- nothing. Ignores me for like 20 minutes. I place my debit card on the bar hoping he might take the hint. Pizza arrives. Still waiting... 5 mins. 10 mins... no acknowledgement. Finally grabs my card and asks if im ready to cash out. "Yes please. Can I get a copy of the check and a to go box??" I admittedly speak louder with this request since I don't think he heard me last time. I dont mean to sound shrill, but just louder. Brings me a box, but no check. Just runs my card. Mildly annoying, but meh... I get the (by this time COLD) pizza home and its severely under-cooked With about half the cheese it should have. The whole point of an exhausted mom not wanting to cook after working 2 out of 3 jobs today is to NOT HAVE TO COOK. I type this as I've topped the pizza with more cheese and placed in the oven to hopefully become mostly edible. I know they were fairly recently bought out, but that was a year ago or more, I'm pretty sure? Don't know what happened, but I did not recognize a single server, busser, bartender, or manager in the place. As little as two months ago I walked in and the bartender that I have interacted with exactly twice EVER, said she remembered me, knew my drink order and asked if I was gonna grab a pizza for the kids. I certainly don't expect THAT level of awesome every time, but a smile, a hello, and an EFFORT would be cool. Pretending like you're happy to be there would be great. Unfortunately we really like Bullys pizza. I will probably give this another shot in a month or two sonce it'sin my neighborhood, but if the service and the food is still this atrocious? I'll be driving all the way down to south Reno for Mofos for something comparable to the way it used to be. It. was. sucky. I really hope this was a fluke but I get the sense all the old employees are gone and replaced with these alien robots. Good luck.
