    Bug In food
    Rosendo S.

    the food was super expensive for no reason and the cheese was very bad, The tater tots where super soggy the workers wherent terrible but I found a bug in my food. We also asked for a vanilla shake but was given a banana shake, overall bad experience.

    Chili

    The hostess rudely said she didn't have time to take my to go order and said to order online. My fries were cold and small portion $7.99. They gave me 1/2 cup 3 oz of Chili and I complained that I paid for a bowl $8.99 hostess said that was their portion for a bowl. Terrible!

    I don't think I've ever had such a bad experience at a food place. The manager who runs this establishment should go have some training on how to properly manage. Seating took 45 minutes since they only had 1 waiter. They also decided to sit my party of 3 in a 2 person table and brought a chair up for my third. Ordering our food took an additional 15-20 minutes. Once our food came out, they got our order wrong and it came out cold. One of our bacon burgers had a depressing amount of bacon. We waited and waited until the server could come and hand us some barbecue sauce that we needed for the extremely dry burger they served (they never came). At that point we just got up and left. Never coming back to this establishment again.

    We stop by this place every time we visit GSR! Their shakes are our favorite! Onion rings cooked perfectly! We always enjoy our late night dinner from here! I wish the burgers were served with sides but I feel like serving entrees without sides is a normal thing at casinos.

    Open late in the GSR resort! Ordered online, had my bf go downstairs to pick it up, service was quick and efficient! He said it was your typical JR ambiance with diner style counters etc, grab and go service! Food was good! Prices seemed a little jacked up since it's located in a hotel, but at the moment it was fitting!

    Chicken Tenders
    Fancypants X.

    Nostalgia led me to suggest Johnny Rockets to my group for a quick meal, as the chain diner was just downstairs from our rooms at the Grand Sierra Resort. As adolescents, we'd go to the Fisherman's Wharf location in SF & to one in Reno whose exact location escapes my memory. No one was too thrilled with their burgers or sandwiches but the worst item were their chicken tenders. I don't believe these were made using chicken breast. (The Yelp pics from a year ago looked to be made with chicken breast.) The portion was generous & the ranch was actually a good one but I don't fvck with pressed meat. Thick breading on the onion rings, the kind that scratches up the roof of your mouth, but I wouldn't say no to any kind of onion ring. Skeleton crew running this sad joint that used to be fun, retro, & exciting to eat at. No dedicated hostess & our poor waiter was overworked with the amount of tables he had to cover. We tipped him generously as he was awesome, given the circumstances. If it wasn't already obvious, skip skip skip Johnny Rockets, at least this Grand Sierra Resort location.

    Veggie burger
    Breanne C.

    We needed a quick bite before going to a comedy show at GSR. This was perfect and grateful for a veggie burger option even a vegan shake was on the menu! The fries were not very good unfortunately, no salt? The service was quick and friendly. We sat at a cute little booth and had a nice quick dinner. Needed a break from all the crowds upstairs so this was just right.

    Sophia M.

    Burgers and service were great! I like diner-style food and got a Route 66 which was really tasty, and my boyfriend got the double Smokehouse and his friend got the Spicy Houston. They both really liked their food. Tina was our waitress and was really attentive and efficient!

    Tina was amazing! Super sweet and attentive, made sure we had everything we wanted during our lunch. The cute plate with her name written in ketchup was a special touch that we'll remember :) we will come back and see Tina again!

The inside has that old school diner and saloon vibe people always mention, a little dark, a little busy, with memorabilia on the walls and a bar that looks like it's been there forever. It's not trying to be trendy, more of a local hangout with a lot of character and a steady crowd of regulars. If you go on a weekend, expect a wait because it gets packed. Service was excellent. Even with the place being full, everything ran smoothly and the staff stayed friendly and attentive the whole time. It felt like they actually care about making sure you're taken care of, not rushing you in and out. Definitely a strong point of the experience. For food, we had the chicken fried steak and the French toast. The chicken fried steak was exactly what you want from a place like this, large portion, hearty, and satisfying. The French toast was a nice balance to that, a little lighter but still rich and comforting. Overall, it's solid, no nonsense comfort food that hits the spot. This is the kind of place you go when you want a real meal and a laid back atmosphere. Would highly recommend. Great value and service!

Just good basic French Toast. Nothing bougie, just good French Toast. The eggs were eggs but the sausage was quite good. Rich with flavor. The coffee, while unusually expensive for a dinner, was just meh. Nothing special nor nothing terrible. If you are looking for a good, warm, welcoming place for diner food, PJ's just might be the place.

The burger was thick, juicy, and piled high with classic toppings, messy in the best way and full of flavor. The BLT was generously stacked with crispy bacon, fresh lettuce, and tomato on toasted bread, simple and satisfying. The only downsides were the fries and my drink. The fries were overcooked, dry, and a bit too tough. I ordered a vodka soda, and it tasted more like soda with a splash of vodka. Overall, it was a good experience and we would return.

The food was surprisingly good. I tried the chicken wings with their hottest sauce and couldn't stop licking my fingers. They were perfectly crispy and came with a nice side of fries and healthy veggies to dunk in the ranch. The sauce was balanced with a good punch of vinegar and a nice kick of heat and the service team really knew the menu well so they helped guide us to some great selections. The mini golf being themed around our city was a fun time too, and I loved the addition of the Joker, which makes each whole play a little different and the game of mini golf a whole lot more interactive. I loved how it would encourage. Encouraged you to connect with the people you're playing with talk to them and strategize around how to leverage these advantages to help you win. Now the darts was a big surprise. This fancy tech driven dartboard that they have includes a bunch of super fun games that make darts approachable for any person. I'm not a Dart player. Maybe I've thrown one a few times but the variety of games they offer made it super fun. We crashed castles and spaceship ships and played team games in individual games in the our past and all of us were like oh no is it over? Seriously, put Birdeez on your radar for a good time. You won't be disappointed.

When I arrived at the restaurant, the front podium and cashier booth was empty, there were servers in the back but none of the seemed to notice me. Another couple of customers walked in to the waiting room and we all wait a few more minutes until a server finally noticed us and walk us each towards available booths. The busser appeared to take my drink order: coffee and water. The coffee was great, the busser left an entire pot at my table plus a dishful of creamer; I drank most of it with relish. A while later my server appeared to take my food order: steak and (over-easy) eggs, with a side of hash browns and English muffin, and after few minutes she drops off my entree. The eggs were cooked perfectly, the hash browns were crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside and the English muffin was toasty with a generous smear of butter (just the way I like it). The steak looked beautiful; mahogany and glistening with juice; the edges were tender but the rest of the steak inedible because it was all gristle; it was pretty disappointing. I felt so cheated; so, as nostalgic as I felt about the Empire Diner and as decent as the service was, it'll be some time before I consider returning because this wasn't the best dining experience I had there.
