    Cocktails stay empty with the new bartenders
    Melissa K.

    I've been coming here for years. I was definitely a regular. The original staff-Ana and Nicole in particular, made this place what it was. Since all the original staff left to open the new location in Sparks, this place has fallen apart. I still go here but no longer choose it over other places. The food is still consistently good but the bar service, or lack of service, is my only complaint. The new bartenders spend too much time talking to one another or to their regular customers instead of servicing the bar.

    I've been to this restaurant multiple times with friends, and my husband, and we've always come back because of the great food and overall experience. In fact, I was just here a few weeks ago for a birthday. Unfortunately, after our most recent visit, that will likely be changing. A group of six of us came in to celebrate an early Mother's Day -- this is actually our third year choosing this spot for the occasion. We had a reservation for 1:30 PM and weren't seated until around 1:40, which wasn't a big deal. However, things quickly went downhill from there. After being seated, it took quite a while for our server to come over. He briefly apologized and said he'd be with us soon, but we didn't actually place our order until around 2:00 PM. We let him know we were celebrating Mother's Day and ordered bottomless mimosas. I even joked about keeping them coming since we were on a bit of a time crunch. Over the next hour, our server checked on us maybe three times total. By this point, the restaurant had cleared out significantly, and it seemed like he only had a few tables. The service felt extremely inattentive. I asked to speak with a manager, hoping to resolve things, but that interaction only made matters worse. The manager stood there while I explained our concerns, offering no apology, acknowledgment, or effort to address the situation. Even a simple nod or basic customer service response would have gone a long way. Shortly after, our server dropped off the bill -- even though we weren't finished and hadn't asked for it. We had to flag down another waitress just to order another round of drinks because our server was nowhere to be found. Then, to top it all off, a manager came over and questioned how many drinks we had consumed. That was honestly shocking and embarrassing. It was only around 3:00 PM. They could clearly see when we were seated, when we ordered, and we had already expressed frustration about how little we had been served. It felt completely inappropriate and accusatory. At that point, it also seemed like staff members were talking about us, which made the situation even more uncomfortable. We decided to wrap things up and leave. We were respectful customers -- no spills, no inappropriate behavior, just a group of moms enjoying a celebration with some laughter and conversation. We weren't there long enough, nor were we served enough, to justify being treated that way. It's incredibly disappointing, especially considering how much we've enjoyed this place in the past. Sadly, this experience has completely changed how we feel about coming back.

    The workers here are nice and friendly. I love the decor and low lit. The restrooms are clean. The water here taste so horrible like cleaner. We had to ask the waiter to change the water and it was still tasted like cleaner. Sadly I came when they were sold out of prime rib. I even up getting the SURF and TURF. The food was so flavorful and not even salty.

    We were hungry and we were in the neighborhood and we knew we'd be back from the last time we were here. It was an easy call. Let's go back to Land Ocean. On the way back to Gardnerville, my wife could not stop talking about how good her lunch was. She ordered a blackened shrimp bowl and she shared with me one of the shrimp. It was really good, but she was really happy with a combination of flavors. If memory serves, it included mango and other fresh ingredients. Again, we're at the bottom of the Highway 50 in Carson City and she still raving. I had the mushroom burger. And it was really good. They asked me how I wanted the meat cooked and then they did it that way. When you're spending $15-$20 for a hamburger you do want it to be cooked properly. This seems to be a bit of a challenge for many establishments but this restaurant did it properly. We each had a glass of wine from their very efficient wine list. There's a wine for everybody by the glass. My wife had a glass of Rombauer Chardonnay and I had a glass of the Prisoner red blend. Our entrées went so well that we shared a dessert. It was the apple crumb something or other. It was good too. Why the four stars are not five? The ambience is beautiful, the booth we sat and was comfortable, and everybody we met was pleasant enough, but it was not five star service. It seemed like our server was new and learning, but it would not stop us from going back. I can still hear her, " that was the best lunch I've had in a long time."

    You know what? I really, REALLY want to like this place. I do... Its super popular but it just doesn't do it for me. It doesnt vibe with me at all. Not my place. I'm not a huge fan of their menu and thas a huge problem. While I have been her several times, there always seems to be one plate at our table that needs to go back for some reason or another. The signature fish dish is good but it has some kind of funky rice that is completely off-putting. At happy hour the place is packed with everyone from Arrowcreek and Galena hills areas. Why? I'm not completely sure. Some people really like the place, and its so close to my home but I just cant get behind it. I will say this, try the prime rib sando...it's the one menu item that they definitely have right!

    Creamy Blue Cheese Dip
    Lisa J.

    I've been here twice, once for happy hour and once for a late lunch. Loved it both times. The bar area was a little weird. For some reason, you are not allowed to order ANY drinks before 3pm exactly. Not even full price ones?! So that was a little disappointing, as I was thirsty and would have been totally happy to pay full price. Once it was time, waiter was attentive and snacks and drinks were quick. We tried a bunch of stuff. The melty blue cheese dip, with fresh chips, is to die for. I had to have them again, all for myself, so I returned recently for a late lunch. I sat at a table in the dining area, and enjoyed a couple of yummy martini's, the ahi tacos and of course, the dip. So good!

    Guacamole cheeseburger! Yummy
    Aileen L.

    Ordered a cheeseburger with guacamole. It was cooked to perfection. Tasted delicious I also ordered a wedge salad that came with. The wedge salad was creamy, crunchy and delicious! The raspberry lemon drops are delicious too but on the pricey side of $14. Which can add up. A friend ordered the blackened shrimp with rice, mango and guacamole. She said it was delicious so I will be ordering that entree next time!

    This was my first time dining in. It was such a high class intimate but also lively atmosphere. We had a nice cozy booth toward the front. The hostess was very thoughtful when placing us due to one of us on crutches. I loved that each item on their menu seems unique. Ex the cilantro rice was green, the blackened salmon had a chipolte mango sauce. I found for higher class dining it wasn't horrible pricing. You can get dinner for around 30$ for some items. I was surprised to see burgers on the menu. I'll be back to try one of those or brunch! We did notice a hair on our garlic cheese bread but I wasn't sure if it was mine or not to be honest. I was pretty confused by the lighting. They had downward yellow lights over the dining room. Like mustard yellow. I'm curious the reasoning behind it. It was odd and made my food not show true colors and made pictures not look very appetizing too. We came for my bday but they don't offer any free bday desserts. Although their desserts sounded amazing.

    Crab cake Benedict
    Cheryl C.

    Wonderful brunch today with my good friend! Her hubby gave her a gift certificate for Christmas and she shared with me. We had a booth and ordered bottomless mimosas to start. They have a wonderful brunch menu so I chose the crab cake Benedict with a light lemony sauce and crispy potatoes with green peppers seasoned just right! My friend got the breakfast sandwich which is basically a Blta but comes with egg which she declined. Our servers were on top of everything and came by to refill our champagne several times without us asking. Our food came quickly and was fresh and hot. No complaints here and excited for the new one to open in Sparks!

    Mely S.

    It had been a minute since the last time I visited Land Ocean for brunch but they have really stepped up on their food. I had the land ocean Benedict and they were really good. The eggs were perfectly poached and the sauces on both were different and savory. Our server was attentive and she kept our coffee cups full all the time. We will definitely be back.

    Breakfast sandwich

    Their Saturday brunch is still one of my favorites! A group of 4 of us went in after watching a movie at the theater next door. The food was delicious and the mimosas keep flowing. I am disappointed that they now charge extra for juices other than orange juice. It's still a great spot with excellent service! Be sure you make a reservation to get spot!

    Sharp Cheddar Burger
    Thomas A.

    Came in on a Friday for date night. Seated quickly even though they were packed. I ordered a "ranch hand" cocktail and wifey had the espresso martini. Good bartender who was able to make mine on the fly also refreshing to choose which type of whiskey to use. Good fancy restaurant for south Reno. We've been coming for years and still haven't had a bad experience or any bad food. Damon was a wonderful server who kept us smiling through our whole meal.

    Crab Cake Benedict
    Alyssa F.

    We came here for brunch for one of my best friend's birthdays. It was my first time for brunch and I was amazed! First off, they were able to accommodate our large party of 12 people, with a reservation of course. They gave us the option of sitting at tables or booths. We picked booths but tables would have probably been easier. For brunch, they have a special menu, but you're also able to order from their lunch menu too. Now this was the deal sealer... $15 for bottomless mimosas !! Incredible. Our server, Elizabeth, was on it. When we ran low on champagne, she was right there to fill our flutes We shared the tempura prawns which were served with a sweet coconut sauce on the side. The calamari weren't my favorite but I dove into the oysters soon after. The oysters were good size and seriously fresh. For my main, I got the crab cake Benedict. Perfectly seasoned and just a hint of that Cajun spice. This was real crab too, not the imitation stuff. We had sucha great time and I cant wait to come back

    What happened to the lovely fireplace feature at the restaurant? It gave it such a warm ambiance!?

    Hello! We still have our fireplace. It’s divides the lower dinning room and bar area. We light it at night around 4pm. Hope that helps.

    What kind of plant based/vegan entrees do you have on your menu?

    Jamie, thank you for your inquiry. We can modify a few of our menu items to be vegan such as our Spicy Filet Stir Fry without meat and extra vegetables. While we don't have a big list of vegan options on our menu, please let us know of your dietary…

    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.

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.

When we arrived, every table was full, so we grabbed seats at the bar. It turned out to be a great spot to watch the bartenders create beautiful drinks, including some of their signature cocktails served in a glass purse for parties of two or more. The atmosphere was lively and energetic, with groups celebrating birthdays and other special occasions. After looking over the menu, we decided on the lox crostini bites and the bruschetta. We each ordered a glass of sparkling wine. I added a chocolate rim to mine, which was fun to look at, although it didn't add much flavor. While we waited for our food, we enjoyed watching the flowing chocolate waterfall. Considering how busy the bar was, our food arrived quickly. The crostini were crisp, and both appetizers were fresh and flavorful. The only drawback was the volume of the DJ, but we knew what to expect as soon as we walked through the door. This is definitely a fun place for parties and groups looking for a lively night out. One last observation: I probably wouldn't choose this spot for a group of men. The décor and overall vibe are very much geared toward women, but the name says it all.

Very well cooked, perfectly tender, and the Calabrian chili oil was perfect for adding some spice. We then ordered entrees, which included the duck duo and a Caesar salad. The Caesar is nothing to write home about. It's fresh and from scratch, but it's just a Caesar. The duck duo came with both duck confit and duck breast. The duck confit was unreal.
