    Two egg combo with apple sausage
    Barbara S.

    Typical casino cafe with slot machine music in the background. The service was quick in the beginning but we had to wait a bit for our food. Food was okay but nothing exciting. It was a bit pricey but we all have to make a buck to survive.

    Side salad with TWO ranch dressings!
    Mark K.

    Came her about 8:30 pm because I needed real food, and have enjoyed the meals here in the past. Today was very quiet here - the whole casino was almost empty, too! I was seated quickly and not one, but two, servers asked if wanted a drink other than the water they quickly brought. I think the servers outnumbered us customers 2 to 1, at least! I had checked the menu before coming here and found a new item - a pesto grilled cheese sandwich. Simple comfort food with a new take on it. This one has the pesto, cheddar and jack cheeses, as well as grilled red onions, and sauteed mushrooms on grilled sourdough. You can pick another bread if you like, but I kept it traditional! With that sandwich you also get a choice of a side: French Fries, Sweet Potato Fries or Onion Rings. You can also upgrade to Fruit Cup, Garlic Fries, Soup or Salad for $2. I added a side salad, extra Ranch! (I just use the salad to get the ranch dressing into my piehole! ) The salad came quickly, on a chilled plate, and was accompanied by two dressing in containers. Lots of salad on a smaller plate with two dressing was a challenge to cut and mix, but I managed! The sandwich followed soon after, and was nice and melty hot. I admit, it was not much to look at (the always eat first!) but the first bite was a blend of heavenly tastes! The cheeses, the pesto (just enough!), the grilled, soft yet sweet red onions, and the sauteed mushrooms all blended well. The moistness of the fillings softened the bottom bread a bit, so I need to remember to flip the sandwich halves when they arrive next time to help the steam escape. Still, the flavor was more important than the texture of the grilled bread. My server, Jennifer, was professional and friendly, and kept tabs on my needs, as did two other servers throughout the meal, keeping me filled with iced water and iced tea. Overall, a great late night "snack." Left happy ...

    Country Fried Steak & Eggs

    Coffee was super strong. Had to dilute it with half coffee, half hot water. Asian salad. 4.5/5* Good portion. Tasty dressing Prime Rib sandwich 3/5* French Bread was thin and dry. Meat was slivers of meat. Dislike coated fries. Chicken fried streak, hashbrowns and gravy 3.5/5* Gray was good. Will try it with biscuits next time.. Granola parfait 4/5* Layer of granola and the bottom of bowl. Plain and strawberry yogurt top with more granola, blueberries, and strawberries on top very filling. Service was good each time we went very accommodating and friendly Large Asian salad and dressing was delicious!

    Clean and quick service. Food is Sysco.. taste like Applebees, tgif, dennys if you get my rift. Mass produced and lacking nutrients.

    Convenient and acceptable are the words I would use to describe the Grand Cafe. We dined here before a show at the GSR and not doubt of the convenience. We dined early, roughly 5:30pm for a 7pm show. There was no wait and was quickly seated. The menu is diverse, offering your standard burgers and salads, but also offered a short list of Asian cuisine, which was an interesting surprise. The Asian food was passable but far from authentic or even flavorful. That said my wife ordered the burger. It was quite good. The fries were excellent. I may have sampled one or two. I ordered the Bowl of Chili. When I asked the waitress what she thought of the Chili, she replied "I'm not really a Chili girl, so I'm not a good judge but people order more burgers than the Chili". Err...okay. Not exactly a ringing endorsement. What the hell, how bad can it be, he says... Much to my surprise the Chili was quite good. A solid blend of beef and beans. The flavor was actually pretty good. I would order this again. Served with a side order of minced onions and sour cream. You won't confuse the Grand Cafe for fine dining, but you can't beat its convenience.

    This evening (11pm) we chose to grab a bite @ The Grand Cafe open until 2am on Saturday evenings. The service was fast and friendly. The restaurant was clean and the music was vibing from the DJ nextdoor at The Crystal lounge. Each of us enjoyed our late night eats. 1. Grilled Chicken Sandwich w/sweet potato fries. 2. Grand Burger (M) w/ff 3. Pesto grilled cheese w/FF *Wine & Spirits available. *Keno while you dine * Mimosa Daily Special Hours: Fri & Sat: 7a- 2am Sun & Mon: 7am-Midnight Tuesday: 7am-11pm Wed & Thurs: 7am-Midnight FYI: This spot is typically packed for breakfast!

    We were seated promptly. Our sever was nice and pleasant. She gave me time to review the menu. There's plenty of seating. Very nice old Hollywood, but modern decoration. Food was good and plentiful. The kids menu was a great value. $10 for 2 pancakes, an egg and hash browns. I got the same thing but the adult size and it included two bacon and two sausage For $24. The hashbrowns were made perfectly. I did have to wave down our server for a few items on different occasions, including a spoon for my coffee and creamer, butter for the kids pancakes, so make sure you ask for these upfront so you don't have to wait. Overall, nice breakfast

    Cajun Blackened Chicken and Shrimp Pasta
    Reena L.

    First off the hospitality is great! Kell is amazing 100/10 service. She's such a gem and was so sweet the entire time. She gave my family and I recommendations on the food and kept it real. We decided to go for the chicken noodle soup, creamy cajun chicken and shrimp pasta and the grand cheeseburger. The burger was an 8/10, chicken noodle 6/10 and the pasta 9/10. Very good food but the service was the star of the show, would come back simply to get served by Kel again.

    Try this place out and you will not regret it . Got seated within a few minutes of arrival , clean restaurant . Nice menu . Delicious homemade chili and my salad was 10/10. Server Terry was not only personable and sweet but very good . I'll definitely recommend this place .

    Everything was delicious. You won't be mad at the staff, menu choices, and overall experiences. Don't miss this great dining option in the casino.

    The cauliflower wings were yummy!

    This is my second review for this place within a few days. That is to thank Claudia for an amazing service during our morning breakfast and special thanks to Terry for serving dinner. Terry did not just accommodate my request but was very helpful with menu and suggested a yummy item. She is very soft spoken and very professional. I appreciate her. Ty Terry for making my boring evening fun.

    Stephanie S.

    Two years later and we're back. Same great food. Same quiet and quaint ambiance. Same great service. We were ironically seated in the same table as two years ago. Food and service were even better this time. I love the updates. Hubby had chicken quesadillas and I had sante fe chicken salad. It definitely hit the spot after being on the road. Thank you Sierra.

If you know how to strip and pick every source of edible meat on crab and love it, this is the place to grab one. They also have this nice sports bar setup with so many tv's to make you feel it is still 6pm even though it is close to midnight.

The crab fries were decent, but not enough crab to justify the price. Cons: I ordered the vegan veggie nachos; the concept was good but the execution failed. The chips were burnt to the point of being dark brown. I was shocked that the kitchen served them when it was obvious that the chips were torched. The server offered to replace it so that was a plus. It was strange that I had to ask for silverware after they brought the appetizer plates. It was also very pricey, but typical for a big casino. As a local there are much more affordable options that won't serve subpar food.

It was a little noisy but not to the point where you couldn't have a conversation with anyone at the table. We first got a basket of assorted bread and i scarfed down a few of the corn bread bites. I ordered a nojito (non-alcoholic version of a mojito) and it was pretty tasty. I had a Cesar salad and it was tasty. It did come with an anchovy which I'm not a big fan of. Still good though... I had the duck and while it was good, just had me wanting more. And I had a side of French fries cause reasons...Now they did taste good and were fresh but also a bit soggy.

Zach greeted us as soon as we walked in, seated us quickly, and took the time to explain the menu and answer our questions. His friendly personality and knowledge made us feel right at home. I had a tough time deciding between the Homegrown Burger and the Alaskan Salmon, but I went with the burger. It was cooked exactly how I requested, juicy, flavorful, and easily one of the better burgers I've had in Reno. I'd give it a 9.2/10. My wife ordered the macaroni and cheese. She thought the flavor was delicious, but the sauce was a little thinner than she prefers, so she gave it a 6/10. Even so, she still finished the entire plate, which says a lot about how good it tasted. For dessert, we shared the apple cobbler with vanilla ice cream, and it was the perfect way to end the meal. It wasn't overly sweet. The warm cobbler paired perfectly with the cold, creamy ice cream. To top it all off, Zuck even gave us a mini tour of the restaurant, which made the experience feel even more personal. Great food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere make Homegrown Gastropub a place I'll definitely be returning to.

A draft beer for 16 dollars is also more than expected. Our bartender was professional and chatty.

All of the other patrons there were probably late 50s and up at 2pm on Memorial day. This is one of the most expensive underwhelming lunches I've had ever had in Reno. I am sure if we had said something they would have given us new fries, but that isnt the point. You have a price set well above average so I expect that it will be executed suprbly.
