Half an hour before we arrived in Little Rock(14 + hour road trip) I found Reno's on Yelp. It was past 9 pm when we arrived so we decided to phone order, pick up and eat in our hotel room. Hubs ordered a chicken sandwich with onion rings. I had a French dip, onion rings and a small salad. Located in a cool neighborhood would have loved to explore the shops but we are just passing through. Hubs went in to pick up our dinner at this busy dive bar. The food looked fabulous. read more

This is my go to place when visiting North Little Rock, AR. Noah and his team are always a pleasure and the kitchen staff always make the best food. Highly recommend. I'll come back every single time I'm in the city. read more

Bar and grill serving mostly sandwiches, pizza, and soups. Really cool old school kind of look. It is smoking so must be 21 to enter. I got the chicken parm sandwich and it was phenomenal and the homemade chips were also really good. read more

The food is great! We tried the Philly cheesesteak, and the club and both were phenomenal. The service is quick, they were helpful giving us feedback on the best items. This is a smoking environment, but other than that the drinks and people are chill! read more

Excellent food, great atmosphere. Bartenders are cheerful and happy, fun patio area watching the street

Worst experience, waiter obviously intoxicated and disheveled, food was subpar, and when my friend went to pay, he was told his card was declined. Tried another card, was declined. I handed over my card, and was told it was declined as well. I was never given any slip that showed a declined transfer, which most point of sale systems automatically print out. When the manager came over, he offered no apology, and angrily demanded payment. My friend literally walked to an atm with the manager to pull out money and pay cash. I don't know whether this was a cash racket between the server and the manager, or if the system was down, but the manager came back and offered us a free round of drinks (illegal in Arkansas). Will never be back. read more

This is a cute little hole in the wall place that my niece found so we could eat before we went to a concert. I was immediately greeted as I walked in, which is always great. There's smoking inside so just beware non smokers. The staff was very attentive, the music was pretty good. They answered any questions I had about the menu. I ordered the Razorback sandwich, it was alright but the fries were perfection. I would definitely try another menu item. I would definitely recommend this spot & will be returning again soon. Great job fellas! read more

Truly a dive bar. Great wings. Never have to wait long for service. Matt and Melanie are amazing.

We went here for lunch a couple of times mostly because of the great cheese dip and were pleasantly surprised to find the food was very good also, however the service was horrible we could not get our waitress to come back and wait on us after our drinks and appetizers we could not get their attention for a good while and we were the only customers there butI finally had to look up the telephone number and call to ask them to come take our order read more

Four words. Chicken nachos and beer. Outstanding! That's my go to lunch. But honestly everything I've tried here is great. Fresh ingredients and tasty selections prepared wonderfully! My bf ALWAYS gets the lamb gyro and it's spectacular! This is an over 21 spot, kind of smells like cigarettes in there so if that's going to bother you then don't go. read more

One of my favorite wing spot!! I love the their wings in the Lou's sauce with a side of habanero , ranch and blue cheese. Drinks are great too. Full bar and friendly great customer service ! read more

Okay y'all, this is a damn good dive bar. I could recommend so many items. The rueben, the Cuban, the gyro... If you're looking for a chillax place to smoke (or not care that you smell like smoke) this is the place to go. Self-proclammed as a dive bar with food just above that. PLUS they got drink deals out the wazoo! Fun fact: a waiter watched my husband take a shot of ranch dressing and then bought him a drink. If that ain't gonna get you in this place, I dunno what will. The good food? The carefree feel? That's what keeps us coming back again and again! read more

I always get dry wings with buffalo & blue chi on the side. My fave for sure! They have tons of other great menu items as well. Staff is always nice. read more

New bartender with nose piercing and long hair in a bun there was very sweet! He was attentive, gave drink suggestions, and made excellent drinks. He really knew his stuff as a bartender and I will definitely be back to this bar again! read more

Reno's is a fun, down to earth place. Those who don't like people who smoke-find some place else. The food, drinks, and especially service is great! read more

This place is a hidden gem. I have a hard time eating here because of the smoke but get to-go's frequently. The hummus plate is AMAZING as are the lamb sliders, burgers, and homemade chips. If you can tolerate the smoke they also have well priced drinks. Don't let the divey vibe deter you - Reno's is great! read more

This review is for take-out only so I can't really review the service at this time but I imagine I will be back in the future to update! Hubby and I were picking something up on our way out of town (road tripping to New Orleans) and the Argenta Cafe is very close to where he was picking me up. We walked in and ordered from the bar- I ordered a chicken caesar wrap and he ordered a burger. Both were delish. The chicken caesar wrap came in a nice warm soft pita and both were served with homemade chips. Hubby loved his burger, he said it was juicy and cooked perfectly. I was a huge fan of the chips- felt like they needed more seasoning or SOMETHING but I appreciated the effort of a homemade chip. Look forward to going back and trying more- they have a good looking menu and a very interesting little restaurant! read more

Love their thick cut fried pickles! Anything you get is good. Pizza included. Great atmosphere

I love this place! I go as often as I can. I have yet to order something that I didn't love. My favorite appetizer is the hummus platter. The house made hummus is creamy and drizzled with olive oil. It comes with warm pita bread wedges, kalamata olives, tomato slices, cucumber slices and a ton of feta cheese. Their gourmet pizzas are heavenly. I love the crispy thin crust. I usually opt for Gene's Roasted Garlic pizza with spinach, mozzarella and feta cheese, of course, roasted garlic and tomatoes. The Pesto Lover's pizza is delicious as well. It's huge and I never can seem to finish the whole thing. Let's see, I've also had the Cuban sandwich and it's a perfect balance of spicy mustard, pickles, ham, pork tenderloin, and swiss. I've also had the Reuben sandwich and I think it's the best in town. I need to try the burger. I've heard good things about it. My one complaint is that the place is pretty smoky up front. There is a non-smoking area in the back though. read more

I debated whether to give Reno's a 2 or 3 star rating. Due to the overall good service and good pricing, I bumped it up to a 3. See, the thing is, there was nothing special about my experience. The atmosphere was a typical smokey bar scene. My husband and I had purchased a gift certificate from restaurant.com, so we basically had to order a lot of food. We started with fountain drinks and an appetizer of fried pickles. They were, in my opinion, the best part of the meal. Served with a creamy ranch. I ordered a chicken gyro (homemade chips for the side), while my husband ordered a philly cheesesteak with pesto pasta salad. Both were okay...but just okay. Nothing memorable. We also ordered a chicken pizza to go (chicken, garlic, onions, tomatoes, and banana peppers). All of the ingredients were fresh, but overall pretty flavorless. The crust is also extremely thin, about the consistency of a tortilla. Overall, we had a good experience at Reno's, and are happy we tried it. I just don't think I tasted anything that will have me craving to go back... Sorry! But once again, we had great service, which is always a big plus in my book. read more

So.. We heeded the advice of others and called in an order since we don't like smoke. Great move because even the take out bag smelled like smoke. But the food! I ordered the Reuben with homemade chips. It wasn't greasy at all. It was great. My husband ordered the fish tacos with potato salad. His fish tacos were 3.5/5 BUT we did order them from a bar in north little rock so it's ok. The potato salad was really good! Think Whole Hog Cafe. We will definitely order take out from there again, the staff seemed really fun and were great. Our food was ready when we went to pick it up. And it was nicely priced. It's just a shame we will never be able to eat in. Try it. read more

Great service, great beer selections and great food. Local beer is on tap as well as awesome national brands. Seriously, really good food. I don't know what else to say. That covers it all. I love Renos. It is the last bastion of smoking bars so if that bothers you, don't stay. But seriously, order the food. Anything. read more

Always have a good time at Renos! Fun environment, good food, and nice heavy drinks! I recommend trying the nachos and wings of game when you come to Renos! Never fails to pelease! read more

I hate that you can't smoke cigars there anymore but times are changing. Aside from that great atmosphere, great bar, great food. And the best Halloween party around. read more

Great bar with Really good soups, Tasty sandwiches and amazing Pizza. Highly recommend over fancy places nearby!

A great dive bar with good food and excellent bar tenders. only reason not a 5 star is because of the smoking.

I'm a vegetarian so any place that has a mushroom burger gets my business, and Reno's is one of the best around. I'm also a smoker so the fact that smoking's allowed is a plus for me, but may be a negative for many. read more

After being turned down for food at two other locations because of the storms and power outages that night, we decided to throw a hail Mary and head across to the street to the only well lit sign in Argenta, Reno's. None of the four of us had ever been, much less frequented any dining establishment in North Little Rock area. Upon entering, it seemed like dive in a large older building (which it is.) Most of the patrons were seemingly regulars, lined up at the bar not any different than any other night. It seems like it has room for a busy lunch crowd. We grabbed a tall 4 top table and asked if they were still serving food, which they were. We all ordered a round of drinks (Black Velvet, delicious) and proceeded to view the menus. My husband and friends were stoked that you could smoke inside, a drawback for some, but a major A+ for my fellow companions, and seeing as it was my husband's birthday, a major hit. I went with the chicken cordon bleu sandwich, and my husband got the burger. Both delicious! Our friends were happy with their choices as well. We were all pleasantly surprised with the food quality, and the service was quick and amiable as well. I may not make it a point to come back and eat here, but I definitely will stop by again if I'm in the area, or suggest it to friends. read more

The food is outstanding, but I don't go anymore because of the smoke. If smoke bothers you, try take-out.

I go to Reno's at least one a week. It's easily my favorite place in Argenta. And my favorite bartenders anywhere. They have a really good draft beer selection and get new things regularly. Most of the food is really good and everything is affordable and portioned accordingly. My favorite menu items are the hot wings, lamb slider, Greek salad, cheese dip and Ruben. You can't go wrong with any of those things. read more

They serve chimay here at a low price compared to other bars. They also have a great bar food. Great service and a friendly staff.

What's not to like..I had the big Kahuna burger and two orders of cheese dip! The wife had the bomb sandwich and she said it was! To go boxes are a must! read more

Love the food, the hummus plate is fantastic. Took one star away for how smoky it is. Casual with good bands

Good bar food. Really like the French Dip and the Muffuletta sandwiches. Quite smokey.

Love the fish tacos, just needs a lil more spice for "my" taste buds. Great lil bar, cold beer with great bar food.

I love the Po' Boys here! The Remoulade sauce is outstanding. Service is spotty, but I don't really care. Everything everyone else has ordered has turned out well, too. I'm just partial and can't stay away from the Tilapia Po' Boy. read more

Went in at 2pm. Only 6 other customers in the whole place. Sat down and the server/bartender looked at us numerous times as he walked around doing nothing, and never even acknowledged we were there. So after 13-14 minutes we stood up and left. Pathetic! Do not recommend this place! read more

Phenomenal food. Like literally top notch nationally and great value. They allow smoking inside which I understand is a deal breaker for some... but damn the food here is awesome and it's such a great little bar. If you wanna be a smoking snob, then fine... but you are MISSING OUT! read more

Great food, great service even on a busy night. Recently went with friends to a filmmakers gathering there. I had the house burger with bleu cheese and my travel partners had the portobello burger, the gyro and the humus platter-all very good! read more
