While visiting Reno, I found this butcher shop/restaurant on another social media platform…read more Everything they had to eat looked good and they highly recommended it. So I decided to give it a try. My husband and I were there for lunch. Upon walking into the store it is just so light and bright and open. The presentation of meats and seafood are displayed so beautifully. The menu for fresh food cooked right off the grill was right next to the cash register. My husband went with the bison, barbecue burger, and a side of fries, and I had the original burger with my choice of cheeses. Everything was prepared and served hot and fresh! We were offered ranch to go with our fries. I had a house made thousands island type sauce (but way better) to go on my cheeseburger. It was delicious. I asked one of the employees (Sarah) what was in it. She was very pleasant to talk to and very knowledgeable about all of their house made sauces. I told her that I loved the garlic in the Thousands island style sauce so she gave me a sample of their garlic aioli sauce! If you are a garlicholic like me, this is a must try!! Chefs kiss, for sure! I cannot recommend this location enough! When in Reno, it's a must try! If you go, tell Sarah her perimenopause, Indiana, garlic loving friend said hello!

Been waiting a long time to try this place. It did not disappoint. Yes these are ~$20 burgers but…read moreyou get what you pay for. Top quality meat and different meat & cheese choices. (Their Classic in my photo is probably their least impressive looking burger.) I ordered medium rare like always at a high-quality joint but I accidentally got someone's medium-well, and after tasting both, I actually preferred the the medium-well as the grind on the rare part of the medium-rare was a little mushier than I'm used to. Probably because most places you order a medium-rare you actually get a medium. Not here. I'd go medium on a return visit. I like they don't overseason the burger with too much salt like a lot of other places. Eaters with palates desensitized to salt due to a lot of fast food/burger eating may find the need to add salt to satisfy their salt craving. The burger sauce is also served on the side and is a bit milder, and more homemade tasting compared to your average burger sauces. This is great because the meat is so good you really don't want to overshadow it with salty seasoning and overpowering sauces. If you're going to dump a bunch of salt and sauce on it, just go to In-n-Out. They also have sandwiches, tenders and chili. If you think about it, a butcher shop deciding to serve cooked food is taking a risk. If the food isn't that great it can affect their meat business. The shop atmosphere is very upscale with high prices to match it like the rest of Rancharra Village. Very limited indoor bar dining and some tables outside. Not sure if the really high prices for the meats and seafoods in the case are worth it, but the saying "you get what you pay for" at least applies to the burgers here. My only suggestion is take a sharpie and scribble the cook temp (medium, medium-rare, etc) on the paper in the burger basket so groups don't get their burgers mixed up. They verbally pointed it out but it's easy to forget by the time you get back to your table with 3, 4, or 6 burgers. Fry basket is a great value, easily enough for 2 people and probably some of the best thick cut fries I've ever tasted with sort of a very light seasoned crispy panko outer texture to them. Updated Reno Burger Rankings primarily on quality/taste but also value is factored in but to a lesser degree: #1 Armandos #2 Royce #3 Beefy's tied with The Parlor #4 Archies Giant #5 Juicy's

I made a taco and the ground beef was seasoned perfectly! Meats: The roasted turkey and sausage were exceptional. The prime rib and steaks were overcooked and dry. Salads: I loved the variety of salad dressings available! Fruits were sparse. There was only watermelon available. Soups: Clam chowder & pho were delicious! Desserts: Tasty and the portions were too large. Recommend making the serving sizes smaller to decrease waste. I stumbled upon the horchata and Melon drink dispensers. What a great find. Very tasty and fresh! Service: Our table server was Mauricio. He made the dining experience so pleasant and we felt like a VIP. He was very attentive and served with pride and a genuine smile! This was our first time at this buffet. We were instructed that we earned a one free person meal but after looking at our bill, we did not receive the discount. We were a party of 12 but we were good with being assigned 3 separate tables. They were gracious to keep us in the same area. Thank you. Ambiance: Warm, inviting. The plates were very accessible. Booths were roomy and very comfortable. Recommend: Moving potatoes near the meats area. It was a difficult find. We will return! Thank you for your service. Rondez

It was very busy on a Monday. I don't know if it was because it was the first day of hot August nights or not, but there was quite a bit of a line. I got up into the line, paid, and went inside..... What a spread! Mexican, Chinese, American, a station where they would make a salad for you, pho, Mongolian BBQ, a Carvery station with all kinds of different choices, including ham, prime, rib, and even sausage. They had a dessert section, including cobbler, bread, pudding, cakes, cookies, pie, large selection of gelato, even cotton candy! They also had a selection of sugar-free desserts. Everything that I ate was amazing. Some of the things, The shrimp were fresh, the Mexican choices were good, I loved the dim sum, and I had both prime rib and some of the sausage. They had both salmon, and trout, and both of those were amazing as well. For dessert, I had a rocky Road gelato, (very creamy with lots of goodies inside...) the cobbler and the bread, pudding. the bread pudding was just the right consistency and delicious, the cobbler was nice and warm. I paid about $41 with the senior discount. If you are a senior or military/veteran, you have it added to your players card, and you qualify for the discount. Definitely worth it for the quality and quantity of the food. An excellent meal. I would gladly come back. Thank you.

The wings are perfectly cooked and crispy and have a great flavor. The calamari was so good we ordered a second batch, lightly fried yummy sauce. The ahi tuna is so light and refreshing. The fried flounder was the only thing I did not enjoy, it was way too fried and there was almost no fish meat. The fries were only $3 which was an insane deal! The wonton soup is very good, hot and flavorful. The crab rangoon was overly fried and did not have enough crab filling so I wouldn't order again, but I loved the sauce it came with. I thought charging $18 for bok choy was very steep and not worth the price. Lots of food and left pretty full but it was very fried. Great to come during happy hour and try different menu items!

Kiddo has suddenly become obsessed with seafood boils, so hubby took them here for dinner…read more Unfortunately, I couldn't join them tonight, so I asked them to bring me home a simple bowl of clam chowder. *To be clear, this review is only about the clam chowder since I didn't try anything else. Unfortunately, the clam chowder was terribly watered down and had a noticeable "fishy" smell the moment I opened the lid. And before anyone says seafood is supposed to smell pungently fishy: no, it's not. If it smells bad, it's usually because it's not fresh. For a small bowl of clearly watered-down clam chowder that didn't seem fresh - and somehow cost around $20, more than some of the best clam chowders at well-known coastal seafood establishments - I'm annoyed enough to write a Yelp review, which I rarely do unless I'm especially impressed or especially offended. I'm offended.

Prices are high as expected in this type of setting. But if you have deep pockets and a seafood craving it should fit the bill. Most if my experience is eating the AYCE sushi here. Yes it's about $12 more per person that if you want to AYCE outside the hotel, but the local's 20% discount evens it up. Selection is more limited than most AYCE menu's. Probably the most limited in Reno based on my experience. They don't have things like scallop, unagi, surf clam nigiri. Mussels only available as nigiri sushi not as an appetizer. Etc. Roll menu is decent, you will find something you like if you are into rolls. They are HUGE, so recommend ordering a half long roll when possible. They also have a selection of hand rolls. We got the Salmon Skin Hand Roll which was pretty mediocre as the salmon skin was overcooked, very dry and crunchy like it was a bit burnt. Fish quality it typically on par with the average AYCE place in Reno but overall a half step down from one of the most popular AYCE places just a few blocks North (Tokyo sushi) which is a madhouse during prime hours with long waits so if you can get seated quickly here the convenience of it being in the hotel may be the better choice especially if you want a nicer, special ocassion atmostphere. Service at the bar was not very good this time around. Waited 20 min for them to come get our card to pay. But generally at the bar, because you can order directly from the chef, the server doesn't have to come very often except to get dessert order or drink order. If they had a wider selection on the AYCE sushi menu and some of the texture of the fish (Salmon) was more firm and less mushy, it could be a 5-star experience.

It's so close to us in Sparks, we've driven by it literally *thousands* of times on the freeway not knowing the genuine ~treasure~ that lies within the unassuming hotel frontage. Bonus: DJ Trivia happens here on out date night Thursdays! Howeverrrr, we were here for the food & drinks. Absolutely captivating cocktails & a nice menu of pasta dishes, standard fare like burgers/sandwiches/salads, pizzas etc but also truly elevated dishes like premium steaks & seafood. Great selection of apps too! We loved the calamari (some of the best I've had outside of wharfside Monterey!) juicy sliders, a lovely little bread basket, and their beet salad & sausage stuffed mushrooms are perfection. Every cockatkl weve tried was delsih, and they just added some new ones to keep us on our toes. Stop the press! I just learned they have breakfast too! Makes sense being the onsite restaurant for a hotel. The ambiance is what hooked us! Think the sexy love-child of the Goonies & Pirates of the Caribbean. Its fun, kitchy and you'll spot something eclectic every time you come back. Kids menu, small plates, brekkies, late night menu...you name it, Gambi's has it on lock. Don't drive by wondering what's inside, when you don't need to pillage or pirate your way to this gem!

If you want all you can eat sushi you have to sit at the bar. We opted for à la cart sushi for our appetizer. My favorite was the new soft shell crab roll, the Tarantula. A bit on the pricey side ($25.99) but worth it. It has soft shell crab and Dungeness crab in one maki roll. We also got the rainbow roll. It was presented beautifully with fresh fish and tons of Tobiko. My entree was the pan seared sole. Very tasty with a light batter and dill pepperoncini cream sauce. I'd definitely eat this one again next time. My son tried the seafood fettuccini. The garlic cream sauce was a bit heavy on the cream and could've benefited from thinning it with some pasta water. My husband enjoyed the Fisherman's platter with garlic fries. I gave 4/5 stars primarily because the restaurant is located in a walkway to the casino and lacks a nice ambiance. Also, the service toward the end of dinner was very slow and we were left waiting for our check. It felt like our waiter forgot about us.
