    I am seeing this brand open up everywhere in Reno, so I finally took the time to check it out. Quality/Quantity - Gas, fresh food (convenience store level), hot & cold food, fast food, drinks, snacks, etc. Atmosphere - Most locations are above average sizes. Clean spacious locations. Small seating area. Good selection of drinks, see pictures. Cool decor. Modern bathroom, see picture. Plenty of parking. Open 24 hours. Service - Loyalty program to save $$, see website. Promotions - Weekly, promotional, grand openings, etc. Price - Convenience store prices. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 1928 with your 380+ locations and staying independent.

    The store was clean, bathrooms were clean, the employees were friendly, and the food I got was delicious! Just thought I'd give them a shout out! 5 star gas station!

    Meat lovers pizza, free!

    I'm not sure if it was just today, but we came in right at 10 o'clock to get some breakfast tacos from their bonfire grill. The lady said it was too late so we ordered some Carnitas tacos. The lady also told us that she didn't have any pork. So we finally end up getting some Kearny Asada tacos. When we got them out to the car open them up, they were just a pitiful amount of beef in the taco. Over the years we've had these tacos so many times, and this is the first time we felt we were shorted. After they changed the type of coffee they have here from fresh brewed to a pushbutton machine that grinds the beans while you wait, we come here less and less. I will try the tacos one more time and if it's a small amount of meat, then we probably won't be stopping here anymore as the gas prices are usually more than other places, the coffee is not good anymore, and they short you on the meat.

    Gas prices are high, but it's conveniently located. Store is great - has all the treats that my grandkids and I love! And .. they have the milkshake machine!! Entire set up is - the gas pumps, the store and restrooms. No complaints.

    Yas, I gave a gas station five stars!! Why you ask?! Unfortunately and fortunately 100% of my travel is via car. At this point in my life a gurl really appreciates a clean bathroom!!! Their wash station is something from sci-fi movie. Touchless hand soap, water and hand dryer. For a germaphobe like myself this is a dream come true. Onto the selection for drank and food. They don't skip on a huge selection on cold and hot drinks. I've a fan of the Chi Tea which I add a black tea bag to the mix. Yes, it's a gas station and the food offering are not on the healthy side. But who doesn't like a Bonfire roll with restaurant style green salsa once and a while!?!? This location had seating inside and outside. Seriously you must check out this new gas station. Silly I know but once you see it you will understand!!

    This overcooked briquette isn't sausage, it's burned egg white! Literally, it's like it was deep fried...yuk

    This is one of Reno's newest Maveriks, and probably one of the nicest ones in the area. So, let me preface this my saying, I ADORE Maverik's yummy food, convenience, and great gas prices too. Most of the employees at this location are awesome, too! They're fun and friendly, albeit a bit feisty, too! The trouble I have at this particular location is it seems like its always A MESS! Several times I've stopped by for coffee since my kids' school is in the area, and the coffee bar is DISGUSTING! It could be that it's proximity to the high school is to blame, but then the employees should be aware of their wake of destruction and clean up after the morning & lunch rushes. One of the last times I was in, I overheard an employee gossiping to another 2 employees about what the past shift's employees didn't clean...also a no-no in the presence of customers, IMHO. The food is sometimes hit or miss, check out my burned breakfast bowl pics. Regardless of who did or didn't clean, the place needs some attention. It would be a shame to let messy teenagers scare off other customers. It's a nice store, just clean it up.

    This is a brand new station, gas is currently $.20 gallon cheaper then rest of area

    My review is based solely on an ongoing parking issue and not on the quality of the products or…read moreservice. 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.

Friday nights meant pulling into a stall, hanging out with friends or going on a date, and getting that unmistakable drink in the iconic cup, a burger wrapped in the silver Sonic paper, and hot, crispy fries. It wasn't just a meal it was an experience. Unfortunately, this visit felt like that experience has been stripped away. The fries were cold, my drink came in a plain plastic cup instead of the classic Sonic cup, and my burger was tossed into a generic box instead of the familiar silver Sonic wrapper. Individually, those might seem like small details. But together, they're the very things that made Sonic feel like Sonic. Branding isn't just a logo it's the memories people attach to it. When you change all the little touches that generations grew up with, you lose part of what made the brand special. I hope the food quality improves and that Sonic remembers that nostalgia is one of its greatest ingredients. Sometimes it's the little things that keep people coming back.

The service was friendly and their timing was accurate (it was just about 10 minutes for 2 taco plates that each included 3 tacos each with rice and beans). Price was reasonable too. It was $15 for the taco plate (3 tacos, rice, beans) and that included a can of soda. Beans were very soft and certainly made with delicious lard. Rice was soft and fluffy and light in flavor (but in a good way-- it balanced the plate really well). Red salsa was like a mild/medium and was more hot than the green salsa (the green salsa had a mild heat). We tried the avocado salsa too; I could see that being amazing on a quesadilla. The avocado salsa also has some mild heat to it. The taco truck itself is fine but the area doesn't have the best ambiance (we saw a number of people out on foot at night in the nearby parking lots looking like they were possibly on drugs-- and this was when it was under 30 degrees out with some residual snow and ice on the ground from the recent storm). Nevertheless, the "ambiance" won't deter us from returning again-- and I must say as someone who previously lived in So Cal THESE were the kind of carne asada tacos my taste buds have been searching for in Reno.

    Let's start with the fact that I don't eat fast food if I have a choice as to what I'm going to…read moreget! I traveled the USA and Canada for many years playing Sax with lots of bands (www.RickMetz.com) and the only choice I had was wherever the band vehicle stopped. Usually, we were under time constraints and we got the quickest thing available. I never liked it... But, if there was a little extra time available, I'd try to find a "real" restaurant in the vicinity to eat at. Didn't happen as often as I would've liked, but I made do. I've tried multitudes of fast food places because of those circumstances...nothing was really to my liking...especially the "major" fast food chains...you know which ones I'm referring to. Then I tried In N Out while touring through California!! OMG! I loved it! Smiling, friendly employees, clean establishments, great customer service...and still fast. (Pro tip: if the drive thru is jam packed? Park and go inside) Always made fresh and to order... Once I learned the "secret menu", that was the kicker for me! (https://www.in-n-out.com/menu/not-so-secret-menu) To be able to customize my burger in any way I wanted it at a "fast food" restaurant? Blew my mind! This is the ONLY "fast food" that I'll seek out... There's lots of debate as to their fries and their shakes. I like the shakes, but only get one once in a while...not a fan of the fries...but, I don't eat a lot of fries anyway... My go to? 2x3, Animal style, no pickles, no tomatoes, add hot peppers. Always delicious! Even though the price has increased over the years, I still feel that it's well worth it. You should try it to see what YOU think!

    Who doesn't love In-N-Out Burger?…read more I remember anytime we drove to California, we had to stop in Auburn, no matter how long the line was just to get our burger fix. It was a must every single time. Now look at us, we've got three locations in Reno, one on the way, and even one in Sparks. Back then, we paid about $7.95 for two full meals. Now it's closer to $16--and we're sharing fries and a drink That said, the quality is still fantastic for fast food, and honestly, the price is still pretty reasonable. The staff really know what they're doing too. They've got a system to keep things moving, but let's be real, it's still usually a 20-30 minute wait in the drive-thru when it's busy. I always wonder... would it be faster to go inside? Honestly, I don't think so! Whether you're inside or outside, it's worth the wait the moment you take that first bite of a freshly made burger or those hand-cut fries. And don't forget the milkshakes-lthey're so good! No photos this time... I already know your mouth is watering right now. So, what's for dinner tonight? In-N-Out!!
