We stopped by Reno Bar and Grill on a Saturday night with a group of friends and had a really nice experience. The atmosphere was great--definitely a place I'd recommend for a date night. Joseph was our server, and he did an excellent job helping me navigate my gluten allergy. He was knowledgeable about the menu and made the ordering process easy. I had the Reno Burger and loved the melted cheese served alongside it--it was such a fun touch. We also ordered the meatballs, and they were outstanding. They were packed with flavor, and the portion size was just right. Between the great service, delicious food, and comfortable atmosphere, we'll definitely be back. read more

We decided to try somewhere new to us, this place was it. Thankfully we were well after the lunch rush, so we had our choice of tables and good service, after they realized we were there . It was just nice to sit down at a table with proper good napkins! The blackened shrimp salad was huge and quite tasty. Shrimp was a tiny over done, but flavor kept me digging in. The fried oyster mushrooms were great! Super crispy and toothsome, the sauce was sticky and oh so good. They stayed crunchy even taking them home. Now, the best part was the last part: ice cream. They had a great choice of flavors, making it hard to decide. So we got a flight with three flavors! The ice cream flights will have us returning for a cool treat any time of year. read more

I've been meaning to leave a review for Reno Bar & Grill for about a year now, but there's been one problem: I always devour the food before I get the chance to take a good photo. Today, I finally made it happen! Pictured here is the unbelievably delicious Oklahoma Smash Burger :D Shane, the owner and chef, and his staff are always so friendly and inviting. Honestly, I'd still come here even if the food weren't amazing--but thankfully, it absolutely is. I am embarrassed to admit I was skeptical the first time I heard about the chicken skin nachos, but the moment I tried them, I was hooked. They remind me of the freshest chicharrónes and give the nachos the perfect crispy texture. The Cajun queso and andouille sausage on top are incredible. I've had just about everything on the menu, and not once have I been disappointed. GET THE SALTED BUTTER PECAN ICE CREAM!! You will most likely be too stuffed to eat it there, but take some home. It'll be the best decision you ever make. If I had one complaint, it would only be that they get very busy on weekends, so it can be tough to grab a table. I highly recommend making a reservation! Especially when Chef Shane has his seafood boils, yummmm! read more

We have wanted to try this place for sometime and we decided last night was the right time. What an absolutely fantastic experience. We weren't very hungry so we decided to share a couple of appetizers. The stuffed lollipop lamb chops were out of this world with flavor! We also had to try the chicken skin nachos again unbelievable taste. We both had a side wedge salad that also was amazing and was just like the whole salad except a little smaller very nice portion. We had no wait and we were served right away! Nice and quiet place, sports on the tv at the bar. Super great place and we will be back!! read more

Jack was our server/ bartender and provided a lot of great suggestions and service. I can see why this hot new restaurant is doing so well. A unique menu that has so many great options. A Michelin awarded chef is a reason why the food is delicious and the specials run out. The Cajun pasta was fantastic. My shrimp and grits were great as well with a hint of citrus. Wine selections were excellent. Open for lunch this may be a great option during the work day. Did I mention the ice cream. Made in house and scrumptious. Also a huge favorite flavors do get scooped up, pardon the pun! Definitely on our list to bring friends. We met new ones while sitting there. read more

This is my absolutely best and two place to visit when I'm in Reno. Everything here always comes out future perfect. Everything here is incredibly delicious. The staff is one of the friendliest you will find. They check on you frequently. Make sure that they get you taken care of quickly. I love that when I walk in, the first thing I see is the American flag. I love how clean everything here is the decor. read more

This was our first time in, had seen several different posts and was on our must come list. So glad we did. Greeted right away and sat down. Our server/bartender came and introduced himself and told us the specials. We ended up ordering one of the appetizer specials, the Halibut Collar with Asian Sauce. It was really good, we did ask for a little more of the sauce though. Which they make themselves. Loved the cocktails, so many to choose from. Let Jack help us select. When choosing the food he let us know to save room for ice cream which they make in house also. My hamburger and Gary's pasta were delicious but so glad that we saved some room for the ice cream too. We already have ideas of what we want to order next time. They had live music playing that night which was nice background to our evening. Talked with the owner/chef Shane, he has done an amazing job with the place. read more

Very good burger and beets & burrata appetizer. The cheeseburger was massive, so come hungry and prepared! Cool experience as the venue was once an automotive garage turned restaurant. Service was fast and we enjoyed their recommendations. Fun note, we learned that the owner is a retired chef who wanted to open his own restaurant. It showed as the dishes were delicious, but also shared style. read more

Is the term Local Watering Hole really a thing anymore? I have heard it before but I feel it at Reno Bar & Grill. Sure, it is near downtown so tourists are welcome too. But this is a place where locals can come from the South of Reno, Midtown, Verdi, North Valleys or Sparks and find a welcome home feeling with the staff, regulars, family and friends. The owner Shane and the staff make it standard to check in with you, not just how's the food? It is more how have you been and we are glad you are here today. The atmosphere is casual-esque but is elevated at the same time. The lights, tables, and décor all add to the local feel that would be appropriate for a business lunch, happy hour, pre-rodeo warm up or an elegant night out for a special event. If you want to impress your out-of-town visitors with a unique offering that expresses Reno's heritage, this is where to bring them. Almost forgot the food & drinks. The menu was clearly hand selected by a true foodie craftsman that knows flavors and flair. The bar was curated by a couple that could have been auditioning for Lisa Vanderpump. Impressive is the best way to sum up the overall experience. Don't just take my word for it, try it for yourself. Cheers! read more

I'd been hearing about Reno Bar and Grill for a while and finally made it in for a midweek lunch. I didn't catch our server's name, but he read the table well, attentive without hovering, and gave us space to actually enjoy catching up. I ordered the steak sandwich, and it wasn't just a sandwich. It was essentially a whole ass steak! Great flavor, well put together, and definitely filling. My friend went with the rodeo burger, which was just as generous, complete with a legit cheese skirt. Overall, a solid experience. Good food, good service, and portions that actually match the price. I'll be back to work through more of the menu. read more

I can't believe it took as almost a full year to try Reno Bar and Grill. Wish we would have came in sooner. Casual atmosphere with an option for out door seating. They also have a bar, high tops and regular height tables as well. Service was very fast and friendly. They time the appetizers to the man course perfectly so you're not eating both at the same time. Ordered the beet and burrata appetizer. It was huge and beautiful! The colors of the ingredients jumped off the plate and tasted just as great. Had the Reno burger as well and my goodness, amazing and generous portion. It came with an eye appealing piece of fried cheese and a delicious sauce. It was messy but I just knife and forked it to solve that issue. Came with hand cut fries and ketchup. Excited to try more items! We were told the owner/chef likes to add new things all the time. read more

So glad I finally had a chance to give this place a try. I had heard so many positive things about the food, that when my regular lunch buddy said 'YES" to my suggestion I felt we were on the right track. We were treated warmly and water and menus were provided right away. Since we like to save room for desert, we decided to split the Shrimp PoBoy with a generous serving of french fries. Our waitress, to save us having to pay extra for splitting the meal, brought us an extra plate to split it ourselves. The sandwich was very good with a nice balance of tomatoes, lettuce, mayo and of course spicy shrimp cooked to perfection. The fries were made from real potatoes and were a lovely salty tasty treat. The space is open and a bit stark, but fairy lights and plants on the wall softened the overall ambiance. The service was friendly and attentive. Definitely worth a return visit. read more

This place had been getting great reviews so we needed to make a stop here. My family came for dinner and we were impressed by the huge portions of food. A couple of us got the pork belly burger, but it felt more like a gimmick than actually a great burger. I'd love to see thick cut bacon and used instead of pork belly - it's hard to cook pork belly just right and they missed the mark. My son was thrilled with the macaroni and cheese portion, but I didn't feel like it had a ton of flavor. Service was OK but not overwhelmingly great. read more

We walked in around 9:30 PM on a Saturday night kind of scoping a place to eat dinner. Yes, it was a little late considering we had a beer at Lake Tahoe AleWorx where we enjoyed sunset and twilight. We've been hearing really good things about Reno bar and Grill and after chatting with some of the cooks and seeing if it was alright with the bartender if we ate an hour before closing, we decided to stay. We ordered chicken nachos, the rodeo burger, and also their lions mane mushroom wings. I was surprised that all three orders were plated nicely and also attractive looking. I did enjoy the nachos and the crispy fried chips and how they were all individually balanced with toppings. The wings were not my style, I usually love mushroom everything and especially lions mane mushroom... But the texture and the vibe of the wing was just off, I think I'll stick to regular chicken. Sadly, I only ate one. Don't even get me started on the burger, we only ate half of it and trust me, we love our burgers! I saw a restaurant on YouTube showing how they also do that big fried cheese decoration on their burgers... They may have gotten the idea from there, ??? but it definitely makes the burger hard to eat. It all kind of slipped out of the bun after I folded the cheese inside of it. Rather salty, all of it. I was really thirsty all night. Not to be extreme and yes, we did decide to get some ooey gooey-going out, greasy food. I saw a beautiful looking salad that was being made in the kitchen with a nice piece of salmon, so perhaps next time I gravitate towards the side of the menu with healthier options. Other than that, our service was lovely and we enjoyed ourselves for the time that we were there. read more

Update to last review. Think the waitlist issue still exists, call for a reservation on busy nights. We did end up going back. Sat at a bar table - service was good though bartenders were extremely busy. They are your servers while mixing drinks. Ordered the Reno Rodeo Burger. Sounds delicious though execution a little lacking. Burger cooked perfect, pork belly a little bland as well as cooked just over making it a little tough. The cheese skirt tasted like burnt cheese, ended up taking it off. Friends got the Cajun pasta and jambalaya- both were delicious and huge portions. We will definitely be back to try something different, think the burger was just a one off. read more

I had heard about the burgers here and all I can say is I was not at all prepared for the absolutely delicious monstrosity I received as a vegetarian, I was excited to try the Awful Falafel Burger and was gobsmacked by sheer size of it. The melted cheese skirt around the burger was delightful to pick at and wrap my fries in for a cheesy potato crunch. The falafel patty was perfectly seasoned and the burger sauce balanced the flavors out really well. Had to take half of it home and was still surprised at how heavy my to-go box was. The burger paired nicely with a Modelo, and you have to end the meal with their house made ice cream (we tried the salted caramel butter pecan, my mouth watered as I typed it out). Friend had their lasagna (after researching the menu extensively) and claimed it was 10/10 chefs kiss no one left hungry or disappointed tonight. read more

The food at Reno Bar & Grill was amazing and the service was spot on. The restaurant itself is very nice, with plenty of seating and parking which made everything easy and comfortable. The stuffed lamb was honestly the best I've ever eaten -- absolutely incredible. Just a heads up, the restaurant was pretty cold inside, so bring a jacket. Great experience overall! read more

Stopped in early on a Friday for the happy hour and really just to try the wings, Deanna F had heard they were good and something that RBG is known for. On happy hour they were, I believe maybe $2 off. Not a great happy hour special.. Greeted well, served well can't complain service was fine. Pretty cool setup inside, nice restaurant imo The wings were mid honestly. The blue cheese dressing I believe was ranch with bleu cheese chunks, which was okay but a little disappointing too. Only 2 flavors of wings available for some reason.. and they were just okay. Well prepared but build up didn't meet the expectations (especially for the price) read more

I had the chicken Caesar salad and the chicken was cooked perfectly. My friends got the dry rub wings and the Reno burger. They liked theirs as well read more

NOT 4.5! Get pressured by the bartenders to order drinks constantly. Chicken skin nachos are different but ok. The sticky ribs are pricey and disgusting. Dried out, flavorless ribs that were probably cooked in the microwave. Yes, they were that bad! Beer selection was ok, great selection of top shelf tequila, didn't ask the price. Definitely wouldn't return. read more

I was pleased to learn that they have a happy hour, so we had to stop in! GREAT prices on beer for happy hour, with a few snack options too. Unfortunately, not one of the food options on happy hour was vegetarian/pescatarian. I've actually been wanting to come in for the soft shell crab tacos. They're deep-fried, so an interesting taste and texture. My favorite thing that we ordered was the double chocolate goat cheese ice cream! As an ice cream enthusiast, I really loved the flavor and texture. All of the staff were incredibly friendly. Our server, Reyna, was super quick and attentive. I'd like to go back, I appreciate the open windows and I liked the dim lighting. read more

Stopped by the Reno Bar and Grill with friends for dinner. It is a small but well decorated and not overcrowded. The service was very friendly but they felt a little short staffed as it took a while to be seated, for food to be delivered, and the server was juggling a few too many tables. The menu is eclectic but I did notice the entree prices were a little premium for a bar and grill, but not too bad as most were around $30 with burger in the low to mid $20 range. The dishes looked good and had a show of modern techniques and flair. I ordered the rodeo burger which did come with a thick patty and bacon but I felt both needed a little bit more flavor as both sort of tasted like plain meat. The bottom bun was tiny and almost mushed and falling apart by the time it made its way to the table. The fries and their ranch dressing was good. Overall, a decent spot that looks and feels a little fancier, but the taste and value didn't really match; however, I would definitely give it another shot and try some other dishes. read more

Decided to check this place out after an event my husband and I attended not far from them. We didn't have a reservation but since it was just 2 of us they were able to seat us right away! All the staff were very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and the specials. It's not a large restaurant so I do suggest reservations if going on a Friday night like we did. The portions were pretty big. I decided on the Chicken Parmesan Sandwich. I chose to have it grilled instead of breaded and it was delicious. It does come with arugula but I opted out as I am not a fan. We also started with the Lions Maine Mushroom appetizer. We with the Asian style. I highly recommend them!! Overall this was a great place and I know we will be back!! read more

I had been dying to try this place out and we were able to before a concert on Thursday night. The atmosphere was very low key and relaxed surprisingly since the food was quite pricey. I will tell you that it was worth every penny. We had a great server named Joseph who was gave the prefect amount of attention to us, not too much and not too little. Joe ordered the lamb chops which he loved and chowed the down with no issues. I ordered the Reno burger and it was very large and wagu beef which was amazingly yummy from start to finish. The lamb chops were $27 and the burger $21 for your FYI. The only issue and the reason for the 4 star rating was because I felt my burger was overcooked. I ordered medium and I felt' it was closer to well done. Since the meat was such good quality I should have said medium rare but whatever...The fries were also great from good potatoes and cooked perfectly. Another small issue is the toilet paper had run out completely so that was a small issue ( thank goodness for seat covers) I was happy to let them know on the way out. I definitely liked this eatery and will return. I did feel it was a bit spendy but worth the price! read more

I had heard some mixed reviews about Reno Bar and Grill which kept me from visiting them earlier. The place was clean and the service was friendly, the food however was lacking in flavor. We got there 15 minutes before happy hour was over so we decided to order our drinks as soon as we sat down. My glass of Sauvignon Blanc ended up being $12, not really sure if I would call it a happy hour price. I had high hopes for the Rodeo Burger but unfortunately, it looked better than it tasted. The whole thing was just flavorless for how much was going on. The pork belly was bland, the onion ring was bland and soggy. We also had the wings which were nice and crispy and a lot more flavorful. read more

As difficult as it was to choose, my husband and I started with the lamb lollipops, stuffed with feta and spinach, cooked to perfection.

I had a 15 minute experience here. I arrived starving. It took about 5 mins to be sat. After 10 minuets without being talked to or looked at we left. Really disappointed.

I do like this places food, and the service this experience hasn't reflected my other visits. read more

Tonight was my second time going. The atmosphere really brought it to a 5 versus my first experience was more of a 4. There was live music that was fun and engaging. We were greeted upon arrival and said goodbye to when we left. It felt personal and family like. The chef came out to ask how things were and the burger was excellent. It was well cooked, the flavors blended well, and the cheese skirt... I mean crispy, melted cheese, so yummy! The other time I came, I split some chicken sandwich dishes and they were just okay unlike the burger tonight. read more

We finally had the opportunity to try Reno Bar and Grill before a show in October and were thrilled with our experience. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming with both small and large table for group meals. Our server was amazingly friendly and personable, as well as attentive and patient. We ordered several small bites to share and will be back to try some of the larger plates and lunch menu items (including the mac and cheese, which they were out of when we visited, and hot chicken sandwich). The chicken skin nachos were unique and tasty; the chicken wings were indeed crispy and delicious; the Caesar salad was solid; and each cocktail was perfection. read more

We finally got to try this spot and LOVED it! We sat at the bar and our server was Jack. The service was fantastic and everything came out quickly! The music they play is loud enough to enjoy but not so loud you can't hear people talk, which we're fans of. We got the meatball appetizer, which for me had too much cheese and not enough sauce, but it was still delicious! We also got the steak frites and the Cajun pasta, both of which were literally perfect. There's so much flavor in everything. We also got their homemade ice cream flight for dessert, the chocolate goat cheese brownie flavor was SO good! We also got the salted butter pecan and the regular chocolate. We're definitely coming back here!! read more
