    Cheese fries
    Patti C.

    Everything we ordered was delicious the service was great burgers were amazing cheese fries yummy I would come back

    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!

    Oreo milkshake
    Chylsi C.

    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!

    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.

    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.

It was a beautiful evening and we enjoyed the outside patio dining with our dog. They took our order quickly and the burgers came out pretty quick as well, within 30 min or so. Burgers were great as always, and we added the side of fries with fry sauce, a winning combination all the way around! Haven't had a bad experience yet, I love Royce burger!

The burger had plenty of caramelized onions, which I'm a huge fan of, and everything was packed with flavor. The wait for the food was about an hour, but it was well worth it in the end. Also, don't miss the extra seating tucked away behind the bar if the front looks full. I also opted for their house michelada paired with a shot for $8 (I believe), which was a great deal. Another nice touch was their frequent visitor stamp card. I'll definitely be back and plan on trying the chicken wings next time. I saw so many people ordering them, and they looked absolutely delicious. Royce has a great atmosphere, great food, and easily earned a return visit from me.

The owner of Ruby Shake Shop routinely parks his Audi in the limited public street parking spaces along South Virginia Street directly in front of Raising Cane's, Ike's Love & Sandwiches, and the surrounding businesses. Anyone familiar with this area knows parking can already be difficult, especially during peak hours when people are trying to grab lunch, pick up an order, or make a quick stop. What makes this particularly frustrating is that these spaces appear to be occupied for extended periods of time, often throughout the day, by someone who owns and operates a nearby business. Public street parking in a busy commercial corridor is a shared resource intended to serve customers and visitors, not to function as a personal parking space for a single business owner. This review is not a reflection of the products or service at Ruby Shake Shop. It is simply feedback regarding what appears to be an extremely inconsiderate use of limited public parking in an area where parking availability already impacts customers and neighboring businesses.

    Wow. If you find yourself in Reno, jonesing for a burger, Archie's is the place to go. We aren't…read moreresidents, but come up the hill a few times a year for various events. Until this 4th of July weekend (250/2026) we had never heard of Archie's. It was recommended to us and we stopped in on Sunday the 5th for lunch on our way out of town. What an amazing choice. I ordered their bacon cheese burger. Guess what? It was GIANT. It was delicious. It was perfect. Comes with fries but I got onion rings. The onion rings were perfect too. Largest order of rings I have ever seen. The burger (1/2 Lb I think!!) had nice thick bacon in every bite, two large and fresh slices of tomato, a big old slab of an onion slice, mayo and lettuce. I can't remember if there were pickles. It was the best burger and onion rings I have eaten in at least ten years, maybe 20. We will be back, EVERY time we are in town from now on. I can't recommend this place enough. Special shout out to David, our server. This guy made no mistakes. Laughed at all my stupid dad jokes, was attentive, patient while my companions changed their minds 36 times, and was friendly too. Says it was only his 2nd day on the job, but I wish he had been working for us at our restaurant (Hokkaido Noodle House) in Sacramento. He is a pro already, give him reasons to keep working for you boss. Don't worry, we won't steal him from you, we are retired and closed our joint 10 years ago. Rock on Archie's! You have earned a few new fans today.

    I went here on Sunday mid afternoon before Memorial Day so I assume many students had left town so…read morethe place was pretty empty (so service was excellent.) Was surprised it had a second floor with a small deck and pretty decent views! Big place. Great Happy Hour Deals (half off drinks) and other specials. I haven't eaten breakfast there but the burger I'd put in the top 4 in Reno. It is giant diameter wise but the meat is the same amount of a smaller thicker burger which makes it no too hard to eat. I'd call this a Purist's Burger. Crisp lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, mustard, sauce. They went really light on the sauce to the point I didn't think it had any. Fries were excellent too. Price is very reasonable (that's typical near a college.) I've tried Royce, Juicy's, and The Parlor. I'd put Archies below Royce and Parlor but above Juicy's. Two left on my list are Armando & Son's Butcher Shop and of course Beefy's.

They were very helpful in choosing what to order! The bison comes from their ranch in Wyoming, the owners brother runs the ranch! The elk comes from a group of family farms they have been doing business with for over 40 years in New Zealand. (Wow!) And the in house ground beef is mostly Niman ranch and Creekstone farms. I don't think you will find a better burger in Reno! We sat inside on their bar stool seating, but there's lots of other seating available outside! The inside has a very modern and elegant feel! Regrettably I ate the food way too fast, so I did not get any pictures!! But I will be back with updates.
