I love a good burger, and oh man, this was a goooood burger. The aïoli was awesome too. I don't think I'm gonna wait long to go back and get another burger. Might be hard to try other things on the menu and they have quite the extensive menu. Bartender said the breakfast is amazing. The bar ambience is better than the restaurant ambience which was kind of a little offputting.

My family and I recently got to enjoy this place because we were invited to a birthday party, and we had so much fun! It's very open and lots to do. Plenty of parking spaces. The rooms for the parties were VERY hot though, even with not many people in the room. It was so hot, people were standing around sweating. So we did our best to not stay in the room as much, just quick bite for our kid and blow out candles for the birthday celebrant. The games were fun, and my kid loved the claw machines. I actually won twice in the claw machines, which has never happened before! One thing though was I wish they would let you scan to play again more frequently. Sometimes when you're playing a game, and you need to scan for more credits, you have to wait because it's too soon. But by the time it allows you to do it, it's timed out and you have to start all over.

Recently visited south 40 for the first time for a graduation party and we had such a fun time. It is sooo big and bright in there I was surprised. There were probably 5 graduation parties going on in the same room at the same time and there was still so much room and did not feel crowded at all! We didn't try too much of the food but the atmosphere was great and all the games were so fun. Our toddler had a great time. There was a wide range of activities that were fun for all age groups which was nice. Toddlers are usually forgotten!! So it was nice to see a little toddler area. We especially loved the ride on animals.

We came here to attend the craft fair and get lunch. When we arrived we noticed the subtle changes, such as the partial wall for the bar area and the split wall at the hostess station. It was nice to see the defined area for the bar and the eating area. We were seated quickly and received water. We ordered and then went to wanted around the craft fair. There were many local vendors with unique and special items. It was easy to navigate. We were able to get several Christmas and birthday gifts. Our food arrived promptly. I shared the Shrimp Louie Salad with my daughter. It was thoughtfully separated in two plates. There were 5 large shrimp on each plate along with cherry tomatoes, capers, asparagus spears, hard boiled egg, avocado, cucumber and thousand island dressing. It was so good and all the items complimented each other. Another ordered the Turkey Reuben Sandwich. This included turkey breast, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese and thousand island dressing on marbled bread. The side selected was a side salad. The sandwich was served warm at the perfect temperature. The side salad was fresh and crisp with ranch dressing in the side. The kids ordered pepperoni pizza. This came out piping hot and was very cheesy. It was a great experience.

This review is just for the arcade. We dropped by on Monday night to see what's changed since our last visit, which has been at least several months. The dining area was empty as we walked through. The arcade area was a bit busy with kids riding the mobile animal rides in and out to the back yard. They had several signs advertising the latest special deals for game play as well as a new Locals VIP club. We had reloaded our game cards before I noticed it in the Redemption Center. Will have to sign up next time. The redemption center was fully stocked with prizes, most of which we've seen on previous visits. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I brought in collector cards we had gotten from their machines a while ago to redeem. Even though the Marvel machine was no longer there, I could still turn in the cards, yay! When I had issues redeeming the Wonka card sets in the machine, the guy working at the center came to help. He explained the cards had changed but he would be able to give us tickets for them manually. That was awesome and nice to know the sets I saved up were not wasted. Thank you! The arcade itself was clean and amazingly majority of the games were working, compared to other places we have gone to. Plus, the basketballs in the games were actually pumped up, which was a nice surprise. While playing some of the games, I noticed the card readers advertised Monday 1/2 price games! That was so nice to be able to enjoy time there a bit longer than typical hehe. South 40 has a good variety of claw machines for both tickets and unique stuffies. My family had a really enjoyable evening of reasonably priced fun! We may make it a great Monday night visit for the summer! Thank you!

I really like the upscale bar vibe at South 40. The happy hour was pretty decent, the coconut shrimp were crispy and delicious, the sliders were low quality beef but for $10 acceptable, and the wings were also priced fair and had plenty of meat on the bone! The drinks were strong and the vibes were great. A casual spot that's family friendly, kids can roam the giant arcade. They also host tuesday night swing dancing which I appreciate. Overall, pretty decent for a Reno bar pub experience.

The happy hour deal is such a great option at this restaurant! We hadn't been for a few months and were attending a basketball game at The Sportsdome so met the family before the game for dinner. Service is always good here and I love the partition they put between the bar area and main dining room. It is spacious inside and can easily fit larger groups-which is helpful because when we have family visiting it can be a group of 10-12. We ordered off both the happy hour and their regular menu-mozzarella sticks, wings, sliders, cheeseburger, steak dinner (cooked perfectly) and cocktails. Everything was great-highly recommend!

Well I just love bars that don't know what they're doing. Happy hour. Mystery what's on Happy Hour. Not the big beers. No big deal. Americas funniest videos on the big screen? This place has no identity. Normally you walk into a pub and you know the vibe. No vibe at this place. If they make it to Christmas I'd be surprised.

Not sure why their rating of is mid. I think the best time to go there is during happy hour (2-6) on a weekday. We went there for happy hour Friday, closer to 2 PM and the place was virtually empty on the dining side. The bar side I think had quite a few diners, but I was glad we got seated at the empty side. Place looked decent and nice considering they're connected to a gigantic arcade. We ordered food from the regular menu although some were also available on the happy hour menu. We were greeted by a friendly hostess and just as friendly server. For apps we ordered the Burrata and Roasted Tomatoes with Crostini and Calamari. The Burrata is not found in a lot of places offered as an app but South 40 does. We were not disappointed!!! It was so, so good, although, for some reason the green tomatoes were not as roasted as the red ones. But, so good none-the-less. The calamari wasn't bad either, it can actually compete with other bar and grills as far as taste and flavor. For entrees, I had the Mango Shrimp Salad and the husband got the Chopped Philly Cheese Steak with Sweet Potato Fries, but you get quite a few choices for your sides. The salad was awesome! It had mango strips, but because it wasn't in season, it wasn't quite sweet but still ok. The blackened shrimp that came with the salad was also good, a little on the spicy side but even a weakling like me can deal with the kick. My only gripe is that there wasn't enough dressing. I'll ask for extra next time I eat there. Per the husband, the Philly Cheese steak was good. It was a good, enjoyable experience and will make it a point to go again during happy hour when there's not a lot of people.

I had difficulty posting that previous review (too long, cut off before I could edit) and wanted a quick correction/update especially ecially since I tried to follow up with them and never did get a call back. They didn't have the area ready. It took two hours from standing in line to order food to getting the food. The entertainment was canceled. They tried to pass off small pizzas as larges (we paid for large). Guests had to go before we even got food. Pretty much killed the party. I would maybe go back for dinner on a weeknight but for events, especially important ones that has guests, don't do it. You really do get what you pay for.
