    Mf Spicy Chicken.
    Rachel Z.

    Congrats on 10 years!! I visited MF with a couple friends as it has been years since I've been here. The food was just as decadent as I remember. Everything was cooked to order and almost all their side items and sauces are homemade and just oh so delicious. All their servers were very nice and attentive. The food came out rather quickly even though the restaurant was full. The only disappointment was that they had a limited menu on a Saturday night due to staffing in the kitchen so my friend didn't get to order the Mahi Mahi Fish & Chips, but I suppose it just means we get to visit again.

    A great place to eat before an Aces game. Great beer options and food choices. It was crowded but they have long tables, so we were able to share one with another couple.

    The food and draft beers were very good. We had their classic burger and Cubano, which has braised carnitas, grilled ham, spicy mustard, Swiss, and Nevada brining pickles. Sat at the bar with good service and quick turnaround from the kitchen. Good adult atmosphere, if with kids,I'd do the outside seating area. Pretty busy before the ball game, so go early or make reservations.

    We went before the Party Animals baseball game this past weekend and it had been a bit since we dined here. They have become even better than before! Staff were friendly, it has a casual vibe, and the indoor/outdoor options make it a great stop in this great weather. The appetizers are generous portions and could be a meal itself. We had the spicy Korean bbq cauliflower and it was everything we hoped for! I had the Lupe sandwich and it was great flavor, but I think if the bread had been toasted instead of soggy it would have made it over the top. The cherry lime wheat beer tastes just like cherry limeade and was so refreshing! We look forward to returning soon and maybe just splitting some cauliflower and a MASSIVE pretzel.

    The food, atmosphere and service were all great! We stopped in before going to the Reno Aces vs. Salt Lake Bees game on June 24th, 2025. Had a couple of beers, the giant pretzel, the fried cauliflower with the Lemonhead sweet and tangy lemon pepper sauce and split the korean bbq burger. The cheese sauce for the pretzel was delicious and so was the kbb sauce on the burger! We will definitely stop by again!

    This is my third time eating here... I honestly didn't like what I had ordered the last 2 times. The first time I ordered a Prime Philly and it was super salty. The second time I ordered MFQ Mac and it had no seasoning at all and tasted too much like flour. You might wonder why I came back here if I didn't like the food, well I have 2 reasons. 1 the cauliflower wings are delicious and 2 when my girlfriend's bosses come on business from LA or Seattle they like to come to eat at this place because they love the Korean burger and the cauliflower wings. Well now I decided to give it a chance again and I ordered a grilled cheese which was very delicious and super crunchy although a little greasy but it is understandable because of the cheese. What I didn't like was the almost pound of tomato that they put on my salad. But well the service is always good here, the waiters have been very nice and friendly and the atmosphere has always been very calm for us.

    Wow! I think i found my new mac and cheese spot in Reno. All the entrees were big portions for the price which is always a plus. I got the pulled pork mac and cheese and it was phenomenal. The chicken sandwich and fries were also very good! Service was great! Smaller seating area inside but we were sat quickly on a Wednesday night. We will definitely be back!

    Mellow fellow is one of my go to places! There are many different food options all which are delicious. This time, I got the cauliflower "wings" with Korean BBQ sauce. It was delightful! Cauliflower wings are one of my favorite dishes and this made the top favorite list. My husband ordered the MFQ Mac which was also tasty. The only issue he said was that it was lacking pull pork. The ratio of Mac and cheese and pulled pork was off so each bite didn't have the delicious pulled pork! Surprisingly, each time I have been here, it has been empty! I'm assuming this place gets pooping when there events at the ballpark. It is located right downtown so it is a great place to eat and drink before exploring the downtown area.

    What can I say other than fantastic food and service. I've eaten here before but had time for just an appetizer. This time I got to try three new appetizers I hadn't tried before. I really enjoyed the pretzel appetizer. It was cooked to perfection the crispiness on the outside, and the soft warmness on the inside was delicious. It also came with a lot of different dipping's and toppings that you can use, but my favorite was the cheese dip sauce highly recommend that. I tried the crispy Brussels sprouts; although I'm not a fan of those little green things they were cooked very well. Crispy on the outside and a little soft in the inside. I got to try their prime chop salad. It was so good the amount of toppings that were in the salad was so pleasing. Normally you get a salad and it barely has some protein in a little bit of veggies and the rest is all lettuce. This had mixed greens, which is healthier some prime meat and tons of veggies with a great amount of blue cheese crumbles. The dressing I can't remember the name of it, but it was refreshing and had a herbal earthy taste. For drinks, I had water and a tequila pineapple cocktail very good. Our server Emily was so nice and on top of everything. She was friendly and even allowed me to take her picture with the giant pretzel appetizer. Wasn't too busy so the noise level was adequate. I like that the place is located in a area that I frequent often. The other orders on the table looked so good too and they are on my list to try. They have a lot of different well drinks and beers. Full at as well. Clean bathrooms that is always a plus. Shout out to the staff for the wonderful experience and great tasting food.

    Right across from the ballpark. Not too far from downtown casino area. Friendly attentative staff. Food was a smash hit, got the pomegranate-molasses beef plate with mash potatoes, and it was a very good portion and so well seasoned and rich in flavor throughout. Water bottle service when you sit down. Great place if you want to enjoy the bar or bring your family in. Clean restrooms. Dessert and beverage menu has a ton to choose from. So many great qualities of a place, will definitely be back.

    What a great find! Fun food selection, great beer and wine choices, good service, and the parking garage entrance is right behind the restaurant. If you are trying to keep track of a game, there are lots of TVs. Noise level is fine even on Saturday afternoon. I'll be back!

    Hell yessssss. This is the go to place for me. Oh my. We had the pretzel . And it was too die for. A good selection of beers . The ambiance is perfect for game day. It's right across for the Reno Aces ball park. For the win. We had the jalapeño polenta poppers , the crispy Brussel sprouts. Beers and the pretzel. I will be back ...

    Great place to stop before an Aces game! In or outdoor seating, good menu choices and beverages galore for your drinking pleasure. I enjoyed a light amber draft beer called Tropical mist that came in a great glass. It wasn't fruity just flavorful and cold. The bartender was friendly and the appetizer menu looked tempting but since we were eating at the park had to pass, next time!

    This is the Cauliflower Wings with the Korean sauce.

Shoutout to our main waiter Bryce! He was solid! He was extremely attentive and made it his mission to check up on us every few minutes and after we received our appetizers, entrees, and desserts. 10/10 service. We ordered 2 cokes, the crab cake, a bone marrow and a beef carpaccio to start, two beef wellingtons, the broccolini, and two sticky toffee puddings. Everything was delicious. The crab cake was dense and full of crab. Paired with their citrus aioli, it was chefs kiss. The beef carpaccio was amazing. The beef was tender and was topped with an egg yolk sauce that really brought the savoriness to the beef. The bone marrow was thick, well seasoned, and melt in your mouth delicious. The beef wellingtons were med rare and juicy. The root veggies were tender but not soft. The potato puree was smooth and creamy and the Demi glaze was the icing on the cake. It brought everything together. When we got our sticky toffee puddings, we thought they were a bit small but we were pretty full by that point anyways so we didn't mind. Just as we were finishing them, Bryce brought over two massive ones and an apology. Apparently there was a mix up and the ones we ate were for the tasting menu. So we ended up taking the big ones to go which was great because that meant dessert for later. Overall, the meal was superb, the atmosphere was lovely, the service was impeccable, the staff were friendly, and the vibes were solid. 10/10 would recommend. P. S. I think it was 100% better than the GR at the Paris in Las Vegas.

If you go to both restaurants back to back, I'd suggest coming here first before you go to Roxy's or you would be a little disappointed. Otherwise, when we came in, they sat us right in front of the noisy kitchen with a view of the casino walkway right after telling them that we were celebrating an anniversary. My guess is that was where they have the intimate booth seating available so I don't know how else they could have seated us. Maybe put up more dividers at the front of the restaurant? That was alright though. We were looking forward to trying this place out. From there, the service was fantastic! The hostess was really friendly. Our server was very attentive and checked in on us a reasonable amount of time. We had our drinks refilled as well. The food, however, was good but I wouldn't say the Beef Wellington was worth the $70 spent. It is probably a dish that is one and done. I've tried it and now let's move on to something else. However, the best thing about the dinner though??? We received a complimentary Sticky Toffee Pudding to celebrate our special day. It was soooo good. We have never had anything like it. I would come back again just for the toffee pudding.

The duck pizza was fantastic but I wouldn't characterize the amount of cheese and toppings as 'generous' but it tasted like the ingredients were really high quality.

Unfortunately, we were stuck back in the rear corner of the building on this visit. The vibes back there are not nearly as nice as the up-front dining. Service was still good even though we were out of view of the main dining area. We started with the cauliflower appetizer. 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. So tender and so flavorful. The duck breast was a bit tough for my liking, but I really enjoyed the sauce they used on the dish. Most of all, I was shocked by how good the dessert was. We ordered the cast-iron chocolate cake, and it was unbelievable. The sauce that bubbles away in the hot cast iron was spooned onto the rich cake and topped with vanilla ice cream. Nothing better! I miss the old Liberty that used to offer daily specials and killer deals on pasta and pizza, but the new Liberty ain't so bad. It might be a bit more pricey, but still a reasonable option for a nice dinner out in Reno.

I like a little freshness on my burgers, so I was missing some lettuce and tomato. Fortunately, I substituted a salad for the fries and ended up piling most of it onto the burger. Next time, I'll just ask for those toppings to be added. The poutine, however, didn't quite live up to the versions I've had elsewhere. I'm not sure if they used white cheddar curds, but they were almost completely melted instead of retaining that signature squeaky texture. The gravy was just okay, and I don't think shoestring fries are the best choice for poutine since they don't hold up as well under the toppings. Overall, I'd definitely come back--especially for the wings and another burger.

Zach greeted us as soon as we walked in, seated us quickly, and took the time to explain the menu and answer our questions. His friendly personality and knowledge made us feel right at home. I had a tough time deciding between the Homegrown Burger and the Alaskan Salmon, but I went with the burger. It was cooked exactly how I requested, juicy, flavorful, and easily one of the better burgers I've had in Reno. I'd give it a 9.2/10. My wife ordered the macaroni and cheese. She thought the flavor was delicious, but the sauce was a little thinner than she prefers, so she gave it a 6/10. Even so, she still finished the entire plate, which says a lot about how good it tasted. For dessert, we shared the apple cobbler with vanilla ice cream, and it was the perfect way to end the meal. It wasn't overly sweet. The warm cobbler paired perfectly with the cold, creamy ice cream. To top it all off, Zuck even gave us a mini tour of the restaurant, which made the experience feel even more personal. Great food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere make Homegrown Gastropub a place I'll definitely be returning to. If you're in Reno and looking for a locally owned restaurant with character and quality food, this place is absolutely worth a visit!
