The breadsticks were slightly burnt, and the atmosphere leaned heavily on awkward, outdated boomer humor that made us feel anything but welcome. Hutch referred to my wife as "my friend," a couple times which immediately set an uncomfortable tone. Things went further downhill when the chef (if that's the right term, given the state of the breadsticks) approached us aggressively while we were boxing up our food. He raised his voice and said "nobody told me it was for takeout," despite the fact that I had already had a full conversation with Hutch confirming takeout and requesting everything to-go. I hadn't even said a word to the chef and didn't mind packing things up myself due to a simple miscommunication, but his confrontational approach was completely unnecessary. It's hard not to wonder whether the discomfort we experienced had anything to do with the fact that I'm obviously gay, because the overall interaction felt weird, unwelcoming, and tense. I went across the street later to the BBQ place to get food and they treated us like family, so it's not a small town problem. The only reason this isn't a one-star review is because the wings were decent, but I could never imagine coming here again. They also did not have homemade desserts like the other reviews claim (one of the reasons we even came here). read more

Hidden gem for homemade food!! We brought our kids for dinner and had an unexpectedly great meal--calzones and sourdough pizza, plus homemade cheesecake and brownies. I do not normally get cheesecake but trust me - this is SO good. Everything is made from scratch, including the sourdough, calzone dough, and pizza sauce, and desserts. We ordered personal pizzas, but the large ones looked huge--lots of people were enjoying them in the bar area. When we walked in, we weren't sure what to expect. There are two entrances--one to a busy saloon for adults and was quite busy for a Tuesday), and one to an empty back dining area near the kitchen. We chose the back, which actually turned out great. The chef (been here since August) was very friendly, shared about the food, and makes East Coast-style pizza and calzones (recently moved from New Jersey). His wife makes the desserts I think he said - my kids loved the brownies, and I loved the cheesecake: light, fluffy, and not overly sweet (and I don't usually eat cheesecake!). Very casual, low-key spot with friendly people and truly homemade food. read more

We stopped by for the pizza and were really glad we did. It's New York style with a braided corniccione, with generous hot melted cheese. The staff and locals are so friendly considering they must have to put up with a lot of tourists. read more

Sourdough Saloon - Pizza Near Me - Beatty, Nevada

Sourdough Saloon is a eclectic, unique place in the middle of Beatty, Nevada offering 100 beers to wet your whistle with a bar in the front and a snack bar in the back. Whatever finds yourself mosing in to the front bar or the smoke-free back area of the Sourdough Saloon with US currency above your head && graffiti from patrons past along with memorabilia that will keep you amused while playing pool, shuffle board or grabbing food to get rid of hangry pains from your travel adventures of the day. We grabbed ourselves a Swiss & Mushroom Burger for moi and for the hubby a Teriyaki Burger + BBQ sauce both with fries served with onion, pickle, tomato and lettuce on the side with condiments served in a handy-dandy caddy for us to put on as we liked. Burgers were handmade and a sparse amount of fries with us both opting for sodas. Both the bartender and cook were friendly but once food was ordered we weren't checked on again - we both ran out of soda before our meals with no one offering another - my husband decided to get one to-go by grabbing one himself out of the cooler. The condiment caddy had no ketchup or mayo so my burger was dry along with nothing for the fries. Food was okay (remember the dry burger) and we overheard the cook say that the night before was busy to the other couple that was in the back with us (and there were 3 guys in front with bartender) - not sure if it was an off night or ??? Overall the other place we tried to eat at was packed and we gave Sourdough a try...a bar was not my top pick...I would order food to-go from here if staying in Beatty or recommend it to someone who is comfortable with bellying up to a bar and looking for 100 beers to choose from. read more

We had dinner twice at Sourdough Saloon while staying in Beatty and visiting Death Valley National Park. This is a bar and a restaurant, quirky, old school, a place not for everybody, but fun to experience. You have to wear a mask to get inside, but once inside I haven't seen anyone wearing one except me and my husband. The smell of cigarette smoke hits you as soon as you get inside. Smoking indoors is allowed in Nevada. So wearing a mask had more than one purpose in my case! There's wood paneling inside and out, money on the ceiling, half a car stuck in a wall, a pool table, the decor is rich in details. The place has personality. So do the locals who start starring at you as soon as you get inside. "U-Turn" vibe? Kind of! The bar is big, the bartender was sweet and she was also serving as a waitress, felt for her since she had to do a lot. Beer wise, nothing on tap! But there's a wall full of beers, like 100 types of bottles, from classic Americana, to more local brands (Sierra Nevada), to Japanese, French (Kroenenburg), Italian (Peroni), Stella Artois, and it goes on and on. Like I said, you go and look and choose your beer while locals check you out! We settled for Negra Modela - the Dark one and ordered a Cheeseburger with fries (me) and Bacon Cheesburger with fries (my husband). They were both great, fries had some seasoning and we enjoyed them outside where they have a patio and a heat lamp, under the desert stars! Later on, we got some onion rings, wanted the spicy ones but they didn't have the seasonings (they are far from everything) and they had issues with their fryer and it took longer. They did apologize, we were in no rush, so no biggie. The onion rings were fantastic! We came back again, 2 days later since it was our anniversary (a big one!) and ordered some cocktails, settled on Mai Tai-s. Not the best ever, but decent. We also ordered a pizza , the Supreme, shared a small one. We asked them to hold the sausage, that didn't happen. The Canadian bacon was burnt! Otherwise it was OK-ish. We ate outside, on their patio, the heat lamp had no propane, so it didn't work. Luckily it was a warmer day, so was the evening! Grab your paper towels from the bar, they don't believe in napkins, not too much into utensils either. No frill place, reasonable prices, the girl working here was nice. They have a non-smoking room inside, didn't check it out due to Covid. Their on line menu and prices are accurate! If you stay in Beatty, check it out. Don't get the pizza, go for burgers and fried food instead. Not healthy, but you're on a trip, right? Didn't engage with the locals, because of Covid, but they seemed like a hoot! We were grateful to eat out in the desert, somewhere during this crazy pandemic and celebrate our anniversary in an unique way. Under the stars, old school saloon, some tales to tell! read more

I would give them a 0 if I could! I have never been treated so rudely in all my life! All of the staff was rude! One night a group of us went in for toe shots 45 minutes before they were supposed to be done and were told we could not do it. Our tour guide made special reservations for the next night. We all ordered drinks anyway, but before we could finish, they took the drinks and literally pushed some of the people out the door and locked the door. We showed up early the next night but they took other parties before us. We waited an hour. The toe shots were 16.75 and the captain had a tip jar. When it came time to pay the bill, they added a group gratuity, and we weren't even allowed to sit with our group. We were on another level . When I went to pay the bill, I questioned the forced gratuity. I was literally verbally attacked by 2 of the servers. They said my behavior was unacceptable. They said they were doing us a favor, that we shouldn't be able to do shots without ordering food. There are no signs saying that, and other reviews mention just getting drinks and a toe shot. Unless you want to be treated like dirt by people who are supposed to be serving you, AVOID this place at all costs...and believe me it will cost you! read more

Ever since we got to Nevada my husband had been obsessed with going to a saloon. I don't know--he's an odd duck sometimes. We had a long day in Death Valley seeing ALL THE THINGS and got back into Beatty too early for dinner. Saloon time! Sourdough is a wonderfully unpretentious place for some really good beer--the selection is seriously epic--and a little local flavor. I loved the signed dollars stapled all over everything. The service was great. We didn't try the food, but it looked to be typical bar fare. And, most importantly, my husband felt pretty satisfied he got his "saloon" experience. read more

Once you tire of the heat next door, treat yourself to the AC of the Sourdough Saloon. But keep in mind, if it's the company next door you're tired of, you'll find no relief- these are the same caricatures you were drinking with moments earlier! The Sourdough has no beer on tap. Instead, they have "99 bottles of beer on the wall". Pick one and settle in with your paper towel cocktail napkin cause things are sure to get weird? The bar is a big space, packed to the gills with evidence of good times gone by. It's clearly seen its share of memorable forgotten nights. But sitting at the sad bar, those times seem like a distant, fuzzy memory. The place is filthy, the bartender who smokes in a recliner between making drinks is still waking up, and the half-dead regulars are just depressing in their lust for long-gone good times. Drinking at the Sourdough feels like drinking in an almost ghost town- it's full of ghosts, just not quite fully dead ones. But hey, they've got AC, cold cheap beer, and the fries are perfectly acceptable. If that doesn't do it for you, give the bar dice game a roll. You could win a round or better. And if your luck is truelly running thick, the sleeping bartender may dust off an ancient bottle of Bailey's Red Velvet and pass it around like bedtime vitamins. read more

Surprisingly for a dive bar they have the BEST pizza in town. We checked the reviews on Yelp and they were right. YUMMY!!! The toppings were very generous and flavorful. The crust and pizza were cooked to perfection and the gal did a fabulous job on our pizza. I recommend you trying it out, whenever you're in the area, you won't be disappointed. read more

You're practically in the middle of nowhere except... that you're in a little town named Beatty. Sourdough Saloon makes pretty passable pizza and pours cold beer -- indoors reeks of cigarette smoke but the customer service is awesome! I had the best interactions with the bartender there -- I had dropped a motorcycle on my ankle so waited there for my friends and asked for ice -- this lady double bagged it and set me up like I was her own family! Sitting out in front of the Sourdough Saloon was an experience -- there's a surprising amount of street theatre and lots of people passing through who all want to have a friendly chat. Highly recommended for society, cold beer & pizza. read more

The best Ribs. I've ever had. Between taste, tenderness, and SIZE, they are 5-star. I was craving ribs so I ordered that and my friend got the burger. 4 large delicious ribs come with the order and a side of fries and cole slaw. They have extra sauce in squeezable jars on the table. I wanted to steal the bottle and take it home it was delicious. I ate one huge rib, and let my friend try the other, and I took 2 home to eat for lunch today. Here's a picture of the leftover so you can see the size! Finger licking good. Open now during Covid at 50% capacity. You can get one of 100 beers if you order food. The bar is closed but you can sit in the back. read more

Wow. I think this is my first yelp review outside of the state of California! Cool~ (Don't I deserve a '10 Elite badge for this? Come on yelp!!) The college "Sebi" KM (Korean Ministry) went to Beatty NV for the summer retreat last year. We went on a road trip by driving three 12-passenger vans from Los Angeles to Death Valley and Batty NV was our destination (Where we get to have a worship service, take shower and sleep) It was a new approach to typical church retreat. Sourdough Saloon was the only choice for dinner in the city of Beatty. Another option was the Gas Station. No body wanted to have beef jerkies and doritos nacho chips for dinner. We ordered 3 large cheese and 3 large peperoni pizzas and about 20 cheese burgers with fries. The lady at Sourdough Saloon told us that their oven can only take 2 plates of pizza at a time. And 20-30 minutes of baking time. So that means: 6 pizzas = 90 minutes of waiting for the food. They were not equipped for large orders. Of course, I totally understood this. Sourdough Saloon was for the local residents with not too large group of people. I didn't mind waiting. But hungry and "I could eat a horse" type of young college kids minded waiting. Everyone was hungry so nobody was complaining about the taste. However, I need to be honest. This is what YELP is all about, right? "Real People. Real Reviews." Am I not right on this? Hamburger patty was tasteless. It felt like a dryed up sponge in my mouth. On the other hand, the pizzas were wet with grease and had this funky odor. I know. I am very fortunate to even have this kind of food on the table. There are millions of poor African kids dying everyday of starvation. I can't complain. Period. But for the sake of Yelp's spirit. I had to be honest. Thank you for listening. Now I want my '10 Elite badge! read more

The Sourdough Saloon is a great local spot filled with all sorts of colorful locals and travelers alike. The bartender was friendly and stayed on top of things - my beer glass was never empty for long. Not a lot of beer selection - they only had Coors, Budweiser, and Michelob on tap. During happy hour the beers are only $1.25 Other items to note: They serve food (burgers and pizza) but we didn't eat there. We saw some locals eating burgers and they looked good. The bar is really smokey so it might not be the bast place to hang out of you don't like cigarettes. Clean bathrooms - don't put your cigarette butts in the urinal! read more

While I wasn't overly fond of the food, I liked the uniqueness of this place and the feeling of "local hangout". Unfortunately my hamburger was sub-par and the fries were soggy but the ambiance made up for the rest. Judging from the positive reviews, I must have come at a bad night so I will definitely give it a second try on my next trip. read more

The pizza was mediocre at best and the trucker next to me smoked two cigs while waiting for my shitty pizza. Nice bartender though.

I was staying overnight in Beatty and decided to give this place a try for dinner and I am so glad I did. The drinks or excellent and the bartender whose name is tabbi was absolutely fantastic. I ordered the Philadelphia cheese steak sandwich and Doug who is the cook in the kitchen put out the most amazing meal with perfect French fries. All of the locals there were in the bar were totally friendly and this is a place I will come back to when passing through town. Thanks so much. read more

The Pizza looked great, But i didn't have any. The place is packed with an obvious group of regulars and has all kinds of automotive knick nacks on the walls. That may be from the manufacture test drivers and such that drive through Beatty during the summer test season. The honest to goodness cowboy talking on his cell phone, the white haired ladies downing Jack and a beer...MAN I LOVE THIS PLACE! And the fact that during my stay at the bar "Freebird" "La Grange" and "Wonderful tonight " played on the Jukebox made it all the better. Two Bar Boxes in the back and I think they had darts too. Oh, and 2 beers and 2 heafty shots of J.D. will only set you back 12 bucks. Not to shabby. read more

I give it two stars for the poor cooks efforts, that is all. The food was very disappointing, nothing had flavor at all. The bacon cheeseburger was cold & uncooked, but I guess that's what you get out of a George Forman grill & microwaved bacon... We ordered the Calamari, please don't, just don't... same goes with the breaded mushrooms & jalapeño poppers. All were from frozen bags & mediocrely fried, no flavor.... But THAT was the least of my disappointment, we were a party of 13 adults & 2 children, we were passing through after the Vegas to Reno Race. Everyone was Hungry & Tired after a long day of racing & pit crewing. I went in ahead and asked if they could Accommodate outside since we were such a big group. The only person available was the bartender that for a bartender had the nastiest attitude & lack of customer service is an understatement. I took down our order, when giving it to the bartender (who is supposed take the order) I was rudely told to slow down because he was writing it by hand... I said well you could copy it off of my notes (on my cell phone)... I said we'll all have Arnold Palmers, he rolled his eyes & said "we don't have that".... I said okay what soft drinks do you have? So he pointed to a cabinet with 12pks of Come & 7up, didn't bother to tell me! Jus pointed! I was so done but everyone was so hungry I just bit my tongue. I picked up our food & took back our trays from outside, I didn't leave a dime as a tip... I did all the work! We always leave a minimum of 15% which would of been $22.50, our check was $150. I was so disappointed with this establishment, I will definitely not be stopping here again & regret not going next door to the Chili place. read more

After driving our RV all day, my husband and I decided to stop in Beatty for the night. We ended up at the Sourdough Saloon and were so glad we did! It has a patio area and is deceptively large inside with 2 separate bars. It also has a very clean and nicely appointed women's restroom. They have a jukebox, big screen tv and pool tables. Huge beer selection and a surprisingly good whisky selection too! The bartender Anna was fantastic - friendly and attentive. We also chatted with Tabbi, another bartender who was off that night and having a good time with friends. Great small-town, local vibe. We have driven through Beatty for years, but will make a stop from now on. And the Sourdough Saloon will be our go-to spot! read more
