    Potato soup of the day and old fashion. 8/4/26
    Rae S.

    The food was delicious. Dessert was good. Ambiance and decor were lovely. Gelato station is fun. The service could've been a lot better. A friendlier hospitality goes along way to whomever walks through those doors looking for a great dining experience.

    I was actually quite impressed dining here. We came here for a family dinner to celebrate my husband's birthday. We ordered calamari and garlic bread as appetizers which both were really delicious. The really enjoyed the crispiness of the calamari and the garlicky cheese on the bread. I ordered the flank steak risotto with a medium cook on the steak. I absolutely loved it. The seasoning on the steak was really flavorful and I really liked that they added asparagus to the risotto. The risotto was also cooked perfectly. My husband ordered the chicken parmigiana and that was also delicious. The chicken was still juicy and the penne pasta was a good balance to it. Service was great. Our waitress did an excellent job attending us. I really liked the open kitchen concept. I used to live in Concord, CA so we would always go to the Skipolini's there, but this restaurant is great.

    Seafood Risotto
    Brandon W.

    Skipolini's I don't believe was ever defined as "Italian fine dining", as a matter of fact they identify themselves as "high quality food in a unique, family friendly environment, at affordable prices."I believe they do a phenomenal job at being just that! Their Chicken Piccata, Chicken Marsala, Seafood Risotto and even their Calzone's are absolutely delicious! From our groups opinion of the meal, the Piccata was sautéed in their sauce wonderfully, the Marsala sautéed with mushroom in their wine sauce was enjoyable, delicious--as was the Seafood Risotto. 7 out of 10. That evening I had a Calzone to oversimplify having a "little bit of everything" in terms of carbs, proteins and veggies. The sun-dried tomatoes in that Martinelli were delicious. 7 out of 10. I like the crust on my calzone cooked a bit more well done and buttery. You can't go wrong with any choice of cheesecake or tiramisu, I only wish the crème brûlée was a bit warmer when it was served. I believe what stood out the most was the fast and friendly service of our waitress. The light hearted moments made it overall a tremendous experience. Go check it out for yourself and if you stop in, make sure you other their bacon wrapped jalapeños. Don't be scary. They're delicious and less than moderately hot on the spice scale but of course peppers vary.

    Second visit warrants a review. Was last in around a year ago for dinner on a Friday night for a large party. The staff was really friendly and attentive, and everything was family-casual yum. This time it was a trio during early dinner hours, and the service was even quicker, with staff bringing items and checking on the party regularly. Food and beverages were solid (pizza, pasta, and the meatball sandwich + red sangria) and the happy hour deals are generous. Nice spot for a family outing or casual bite.

    After my Physical Therapy appointment, I wanted to take my friend who drove me to my appointment to a nice lunch. Now, I have to think about where is a good place that is ADA complaint with easy access. My friend suggested Skipolini's and I said "I've never been there" and I love trying a new restaurant that I haven't been to before. We were greeted by the staff to open the door for us, which was super nice and we were seated at a table where they removed chairs to place me. After that we looked at the menu and ordered an appetizer and they had a lovely lunch menu. My friend ordered the Italian Panini, but she ended up getting a different Panini, but she said "it was still good" and I tried the Chicken Parmesan, which was absolutely huge with Penny pasta. We ordered the fried ravioli as the appetizer and it was nice that they gave us four pieces each and it was an even number. I love that. Also the decor of the restaurant was lovely. When you first walk in they have a gelato truck that looks like a bicycle pulling it and it's super cute. I didn't try the gelato though, I'll save that for next time. I did find it very dark in the restaurant and hard to read the menu. I think the lunch special was good value otherwise, I think it could be a lot more expensive if you go at dinner time. I look forward to coming back again with my husband.

    12/25/26 So we came on a Wednesday night was not too crowded. Wifey was wanting Italian so we came here. It had been a while since we have come. Didn't Disappoint.. We were greeted immediately and sat very quickly. Mariah was our waitress and she was excellent and very attentive and checked on us frequently. We ordered some drinks & appetizers I had the skipolini's old fashioned which is made with Old Forester , it was excellent and Bacon wrapped Jalapeños , they were delicious. Also ordered the Caprese salad, which was very fresh and delicious. Just the right amount. For my main course I had Cajun pasta and it was delicious perfect amount of sauce and it's the right amount of spice. For dessert had the crème brûlée gelato and got it to go. My only drawback on anything was that the gelato did not really taste like crème brûlée at all but it was still good. Ambiance is very chill with low lighting and cool decor . Wife and Son also enjoyed their food as well. Was a nice evening out. Enjoy !!!!

    The non-profit organization that I am involved with had an appreciation dinner for our volunteers at Skipolini's. This is the third year in a row that we've held the event in their private room by the patio. It was another successful gathering with great food and fantastic and exemplary service. Todd the manager, is extremely helpful throughout the entire process of the catering this event...he helped with with the details planning the menu, the setting up of the private dining room and then provided the most caring and thoughtful management on the night of the event. The guests and planning committee were all pleased with the dinner, the comfortable ambiance and beauty of the room, as well as the attentive and friendly service from Faith, our designated server for the evening. As part of the planning committee for this year event and past events, we'll return again. Many thanks Todd and to your staff for facilitating a wonderful appreciation night for our well-deserving volunteers.

    Chicken Parmesan
    Amy M.

    My friend and I chose to have a girls night and have dinner at Skipolini's. The atmosphere is a little dark but it's comfortable. Our server was very nice and attentive and gave us his recommendations when we asked. We shared an appetizer of calamari. I don't care for thick pieces that are chewy. The flavor was great but my preference was not what we had. My friend loved it. I also got the chicken Parmesan and it was very very good. I also loved that it came on a bed of penne. I do wish that they offered bread but again that's just a preference. I want to go back and try the pizza..

    Vettie's pizza (small)
    Dara W.

    Came here the other night with some friends. It was kind of slow when we first arrived, but we were there early. Our server was very friendly and checked on us a lot. We got our drinks right away and then she came back to take our order once we were ready. The restaurant itself is nice and open with lots of seating. The chicken piccata was overcooked and my friend didn't finish her plate. The clam chowder was extra hot which was great. The Vettie's pizza (gluten free and lactose free cheese) sounded and looked good from the description, but the cheese wasn't really melted and the toppings kept falling off. It wasn't my favorite place. I may give it another chance in the future.

    We arrived at about 1pm for with about 20 members of the Reno Mustang Car Club after the VC and RENO Veterans Day Parades. We had the private room in the back of the restaurant. The food was so good, my dad ordered a cup of Clam Chowder and Italian Panini, I ordered the Bacon Wrapped Jalapeños and Cajun Pasta, and my SIL ordered Buffalo Wings and Cajun pasta as well. We shared the jalapeños and wings, and by the time our entree's arrived we were pretty full. Our server was amazing making sure everyone had drinks and water topped off and plenty of napkins to go around. It was a very pleasant experience with a group that large.

    Meatball Sandwich Lunch
    Harman B.

    We stopped by Skipolini's and were pleasantly surprised the prices are very affordable for the quality you get. The food overall was really good, and the service was solid. The pizza was enjoyed by the kiddos and the slice I had would definitely be worth ordering again. The only miss for me was the meatball sandwich, that's was a swing and miss so I'd probably skip that next time. Still, would be back for another visit!

    Pizza Collective is still a hidden jam in downtown Reno!…read more From a small wood fire oven a tiny team cranks out some picture perfect Neapolitan style pizzas. It's clear they focus on quality from the dough to the sauce to the cheese to the toppings and they put in a healthy dose of passion, fun and love too. It's been a minute since I've stopped at this place but western lights festival brought me downtown and this was part of my plan from the go. I was excited to see that they added woodfired chicken wings, one of my personal favorite dishes anywhere and had to order them and these is absolutely did not disappoint and I'll be back for them again and again. Sometimes it's tough to get a really good crispy chicken wing out of a woodfired oven but this team nailed it in there, buffalo Parmesan sauce was divine, especially with a little bit of the house made ranch. The pizzas were also good, but I didn't like that. They served them in paper takeout boxes because even the short trip from the cutting table to us in that box steamed the pizza and made it super floppy. Toppings were sliding right off the pepperoni pizza we had and it just wasn't the best pizza experience Of the white pizza we tried with spinach and roasted garlic was awesome. I don't wanna held up a little better maybe because it didn't have sauce and the roasted garlic was perfect. Staff is super sweet and accommodating menu is diverse and interesting in and the vibes of West Street market are great for a date or a group so put this one on your list.

    I had not been to West Street Market in ages. Everything in there is completely different from what…read moreI had known before. Yet, still interesting and delicious. We grabbed food from the Pizza Collective. The wood fired wings, a pizza, the roasted cauliflower, and a glass of wine came to about $70. A bit on the high end but the portions were good. Props to the wine pours, you definitely get your money worth on that. The highlight was the wood fired wings. While not even remotely crispy, they had an interesting wood fired flavor and the buffalo sauce was very tasty. I enjoyed how tender they are and didn't miss the crispiness because the tenderness was on point. The pizza was good, but the dough was slightly undercooked in places. Wood fired ovens can be tricky and it seemed like it got the best of them today. The service was friendly. Everything came out fairly quick except for the cauliflower. They told us it would take awhile, but we ended up being finished with nearly everything else before they got the cauliflower out. West Street Market is a cool space to hang inside or out. I did notice a more run down vibe than in the past, but its still a comfortable place to enjoy some grub and drinks with good company. Give the Pizza Collective a try if your at West Street Market anyway. They have lots of good choices, including vegan options. But keep in mind there are other options. Doing some mix and match might be your best bet here.

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.
