This place is a such a gem to find!…read more The food is delicious and the menu has so many different options, everyone will be happy! The inside is clean and welcoming and the staff is knowledgeable and friendly. As first timers here, this made picking our entrees very helpful! We ended up getting seafood boil single item with crawfish adding potatoes and corn as well as egg rolls and the salty fish and chicken fried rice. Everything was super delicious! We were stuffed and happy! We already know what we want to order for next time and can't wait to be back! Highly recommend

From start to finish, it was an outstanding epicurean delight…read more Our group of five fierce women completely and absolutely enjoyed every moment and every bite of the beautifully presented dishes. The portions were generous with plenty of leftovers to pack up in takeout boxes for enjoying for another day. My favorite three were the ahi tuna, the black cod and the brilliant asian/french mash up of red Bean Creme Brulee. I also need to mention, I loved the lamb tenderloin. I am not a big lamb fan, but this New Zealand lamb was tender and non-gamey. The owners did an outstanding job of timing the dishes and engaging with our group while also taking care of other diners including non event patrons getting getting take-out and inhouse menu dining. The space is very small, but even with and almost full house, it didn't feel cramped. Even though Kwok's is right across the street from where I live, this restaurant would be at the top of my list of "I would drive out of my way to eat here"

I try to never miss a Chinese New Year or Fall Harvest Moon dinner here…read more They never disappoint. Both require a reservation made at least a month in advance, they are always a sell out. To start, you can't go wrong with the enthusiastic welcome we always receive. Then quickly seated and wine poured. The 2026 CNY menu was fabulous, with some great surprises. The ahi tartare portion anywhere else would have been a shareable appetizer. But each person was served a large portion of delicious fresh ahi. Mmmm this course and a glass of wine could be dinner alone any other evening. The soft creamy rich egg custard was hidden under a thick seafood gravy. I really enjoyed this unique dish. The miso black cod is always flaky and delicious. And the crab fried rice it's nestled on also never disappoints. The rich New Zealand stir fried lamb and shiitake mushrooms over pea shoots was a fabulous hearty dish on this chilly March evening. The braised short ribs were so tender no knife was needed, they flaked apart with the fork. And the e mein noodles were perfectly al dente. The dinner wrapped up with a crème brûlée that only Kwok's could pull off - red bean. Creamy smooth. Not overwhelming. The perfect burnt sugar layer on top. The regular menu is just as delicious. Small inside seating area, so recommend always make a reservation. In the summer there's a fabulous patio area out front. Limited street parking.

Personally I have almost always had a great experience here. If I was to take a star away it would…read morebe for the occasional bad customer service from the people at the front desk and the servers, but there's a lot of factors that can go into that and usually I have a good experience. It doesn't really have a lot of other things outside of sushi/ for those who have a partner who doesn't eat sushi. The sushi tho is excellent and they kill it every time. I've tried most other sushi places in Reno and this place wins 1st place for me!

Sushi is 5 stars especially for the all you can eat lunch price. Muscles were rubbery though. I…read moretried both muscle appetizers and both were that way. Flavor was good though. Service I would give a 2 star. The chocolate icecream looks like it was be prescooped into the cups then put back in the freezer after it had melted a little. In the picture, you can see it was melted at some point and then refrozen. Makes the ice cream taste gross. I got passed by 7 different times before a waiter told me to put the ticket in the holder for someone to come get it. The server was going to put it in the holder and walk away without it until I mentioned I'd already been passed by several times, then he took it with a huff. In 2018 I gave this place a 5 star so I wanted to try it again with my mother and my son. A little disappointed. I'm willing to give it another chance but not anytime soon. I need the distaste of bad service to get out of my mouth before I return.

Might be our favorite spot in town, we go 1-2 times a month. The staff has been the same for years,…read morewhich is one of our favorite spots. We always go for the shared plates, it's more expensive but worth it. Some things to consider before you visit: -No reservations, first come first serve. Most nights it's a 30-45 minute wait if you don't get there right when they open. We always put our name down and walk to Chapel for a cocktail while we wait. - Like many of the reviews state, it does get pretty loud. It is part of the experience. The later the night gets, the louder the music and the dimmer the lights. Don't be the annoying person that asks them to adjust either of those things. If that's not your vibe, you should dine elsewhere. - Seating is limited, not the place to have people just trickle in/ come and go. If you are dining here, everyone should show up on time. - They do have gluten free mods, but they are not available on the weekends. - I would not recommend for vegans We have tried basically the entire menu. Our favorites are the duck fried rice, Caesar, mushroom croquettes, soba noodles, ten layers of pork, pork gyoza, shrimp fritter, Tokyo fried chicken, chicken meatballs, rice tots, and mushroom jar. Everything we've tried is outstanding, even the beef tongue! Drinks are all really good, only note I have is that the wine pours are pretty small. If you haven't been here, definitely add it to your list. Easily top 5 restaurants in all of Reno!

Took me long enough, but I finnaly stopped by Kauboi Izakaya…read more Walking in, I do like how this place looks. Great way to repurpose an older building in Midtown. Parking is fairly easy, with plenty of street spaces nearby, and an easy walk if you're already hanging around the neighborhood. The service was friendly and fairly prompt, and even for a weekday night the place was bustling, leading to a bit of a backup. Cool vibes all around, and it's neat to sit at the bar and watch the chefs do their thing. Though it does mean this is a little bit on the noisy side. Look at the menu, and there are tons of tempting options. As the name suggests, their specialty here is small plate off the grill or out fo the fryer. But they do serve really good-looking ramen, too, which I will make not to try next time I swing by. I at first went with a quick bite of grilled chicken thighs, which were just amazing! They were juicy, eprfectly seared, with some grilled green onions and an amazing sweet soy sauce. I also went with the yakionigiri, which are balls of rice that are grilled, brushed with sauce, and topped with a sort of mango slaw. A bit uncommon, but wow, these were also just so delicious! Also had a glass of sake, though they have a full bar should you want some other sort of beverage. Prices here are, I feel, a little on the higher end for small plates. However, I think it is definitely worth coming and trying this place out at least once or twice, just to expereince some of the good food. I'm sorry it took me so long to finally step through the doors, but I am certain I will be back again to try more of what's on the menu.

Got seated immediately, surprised it wasn't busy, the food was great, great portions…read more Service was delightful, water consistently got topped off. It was cozy and quiet, able to easily talk without raising our volumes. Combination Pho was better than most places.

When you're craving pho, you just gotta go!…read more Realizing I had another delivery coming that I had to be home for, I ordered DoorDash and it was promptly delivered within 25 minutes. I ordered the vermicelli bowl with shrimp and pork. The food was hot and fresh (the noodles and lettuce, bean sprouts were chilled) as well as the salty vinegar dressing I love dearly. A fresh mint sprig topped it off and the lunch meal was light and fresh exactly what I was looking for and cured the cravings. It was a good sized portion too! The pork had a nice barbecue flavor, but was a little fatty for my taste and a bit thicker or tougher than some I've had- with that being said I still finished the bowl. Would definitely order from la Mint again to try more menu items!

There are a lot of pho options in Reno, yay! This place was close to GSR where we were staying…read morethis time so it was convenient but also very good! The chicken pho was delicious and I would return. Typical price for a bowl, around $15. They do not offer tendon or tripe so if that is what you are looking for you might want to check another restaurant. They were not too busy the evening we went so there were plenty of seats in the smallish restaurant and the service was quick. It was cozy and a comfortable vibe. We will def come back next time we are staying in Reno.

Tried the Pho #4 with Raw Steak & Flank Steak and Honey Walnut Prawns w/ fried rice…read more Honey walnut prawns were battered and fried crispy; mayo sauce was slightly sweet in flavor with a hint of lemon. Upgraded to Fried rice for extra $4. Fried rice was good with smoky toasted flavor; would have been better if they added meat in the fried rice. The pho broth was pretty standard. It doesn't have any distinct noticeable difference from other phoa I've had. They give good amount of meat and noodles. The bowl was pretty big so pricewise it's reasonable but flavor needs to catch up. Spacious dining room. Not too long of a wait for the food.

Solid spot for Thai in Reno! Wow I'm glad they're here…read more Spicy is no joke. Was asked how spicy I wanted something on a number scale and wow it was a lot more spicy than I expected so I need to get a lower number next time Food is so good! Popular for sure, gets busy in there

The food was unfortunately a big let down, this is my 2nd attempt to like Moo Dang, but my drunken…read morenoodles had absolutely zero chili in them. I then had to fight to flag a waitress to ask for chili paste to get any heat in my entire dish. I like that there are veggies with it and the noodles have a good chew, but I've found zero dishes with anything near Thai spices here My partner got the pad thai, which was sickly sweet yet didn't taste like tamarind, fish sauce nor contain pickled veg. The wood ear in it was excellent, but I've never seen it in pad thai. The thai ice tea was good, maybe a bit heavy on sweetener. I don't understand the high ratings here, based pireh on food. Thai Chili has far better flavors, and is rated lower. The wait staff/food runners lacked politeness, and never checked if we enjoyed our food or needed anyone. Sans the person filling everyone's water, we were never checked on in any other capacity. The restaurant was a cacophony of noise and conversation, I had to lean across the booth to have any chance of hearing my companion. The noise level is overwhelming if you have sensory issues at all. The decor is pretty cool.
