    Still one of our go to's whenever in Reno. We've recently visited again and we enjoyed our visit. Their pig was super moist and flavorful, and their prime rib was moist. We went for brunch. We enjoyed our visit.

    Emily & Julie A waiting in the line to go into Toucan Charlie's Surf & Turf Buffet. I'm excited about the crab legs & prime rib. Julie A

    Toucan Charlie's Buffet has surpassed my birthday dream. From the cashiers, to our server Gil and buser Aivatas, the food, crab, shrimp and prime rib are off the chart five Star fabulous. The beauty and ambiance is electric in this restaurant. The food, salad bar, prime rib and crab station, as well as the desserts are so perfectly displayed, what a fantastic place to bring family & friends for any celebration. Love the cotton candy and chocolate eclairs. Five Star.

    Mac N cheese......
    Valarie P.

    Went on a Sunday. Waited in line for 20ish minutes to get checked in then seated. Service is good and polite. Not fast, but good. I ran out of water twice. They had very little fresh fruit to choose from. They had cantaloupe, pineapple, oranges, and apples but the apples and oranges you had to peel and cut yourself. Stay away from the Mac N cheese. Looks great, but Kraft Mac N cheese has more flavor. Tried the steak, it had flavor but it was tough. All the seafood had flavor but was overcooked so it was dried out. The crawfish were the only seafood that was not over cooked. The dessert bar was ok. I had a brownie and 3 different Gelatos. Vanilla, coffee and chocolate. All of those were good. For the price, not worth it in my opinion unless you do purely seafood and expect quantity over quality.

    Great assortment and selection of good quality food. The prime rib is amazing!! Lots of great seafood choices especially the snow crab legs. It's a customer favorite. The servers are friendly and helpful. The wait to get in is long. Just be prepared to wait about 30 minutes or more before you are seated.

    Pho station
    Stephanie W.

    We stopped by for Sunday dinner. It was busy but we were seated within 5 mins. We got lucky and scored one free adult meal since someone had a free voucher that was given to the next customer, which happened to be us! I was blown away and slightly overwhelmed by how big this buffet was. There were so many options and different cuisines to choose from! We tried a bit from each station and the food was decent but one complaint I would have is that everything was really salty. One place that stood out to me was the pho station. I had no expectations and didn't think it would be as authentic as Vietnamese restaurants. However, it was pretty legit in my opinion! It had a good flavored beef broth. The rice noodles were cooked perfectly, al dente and not soggy. It's basically a DIY pho bar. The sever working the station was pretty rude though. I was a bit confused on how to place the order and instead of helping me, she gave me an attitude. The staff comes by regularly to take away any empty/dirty plates. I highly recommend checking this place out. Definitely come hungry!

    Deserts are good

    Came here for the seafood buffet, it's not offered daily and it's considerably more expensive and there isn't earning any free seafood buffet so you're getting taxed All Round. Time tax: Unless you are rolling with someone in a higher tier of the players club you are going to wait. Sad but true, Maybe I was at fault for arriving as late as I did around 7:20pm but I wasn't sat until closer to 8:30. The line was peculiar. So many people skipped ahead. There was only one person at the register. Occasionally the nice blonde manager lady would come over and ring a few parties up, the line went fast for a few seconds, but the chap at the register only worked fast when the manager came by. Otherwise he took his sweet time, he'd only rush if another VIP waiting to skip the line showed up. It was often, this buffet is popular and the skippers show up in force, especially late. Server Attention Tax: the servers on a normal day work hard, they close at 9:00, they warn you when 9 approaches and it's a wrap, on the seafood buffet days they are not motivated, because they stay late. They act like they aren't getting paid for the extra time. I sat down around 8:25 and no one took my drink order till like 8:40. I was worried I would get a single plate but to my surprise they didn't shut down shop right at 9:00 in fact they were still seating people. So that was cool. But the servers are in no rush. I don't want to get all Mr. Rogers about it, but if you get me my beverages sooner, I'll get out of your hair sooner, you are literally prolonging your own suffering here. The seafood Tax Rebate: the seafood is good, fresh fish, crab legs and all the regular sides. Crab is offered seasoned crab boil style or plain steamed, make sure to wander around. Overall: I love to eat good, I'm not crazy about flights, hotels or hardware stores because I don't think value necessarily is affected by where you go. (There are a few exceptions) I think service flavors cuisine, Here the service isn't adding a respectively great flavor. Sure if you spend a lot of money here you should get some priority but even Vegas doesn't forget about the little guy. I felt sorry for the people with kids in the line. Even though my server was slower than forest growth I still tipped them. But like value lost the taste was unpleasant. If you don't like being exposed to prejudice I assure you the 'regular line' WILL make you feel like you have no civil rights. But if you're able to suffer all that for a few rounds of delicious crab then you should go right on ahead, don't let me stop you

    Just visited Toucan Charlie's Buffett at the Atlantis casino Reno. The hotel has easy parking out front and the hotel itself is quite nice! We paid $37 for weekday brunch and enjoyed all the stations especially the shrimp Alfredo and coconut gelato. Our server was kind and attentive as well. The restaurant overall is clean, modern and spacious. 4/5 because some meats were a bit dry

    oysters- hit or miss
    Joanne C.

    Ambiance: busy and casual Service: attentive I went on a Saturday around 6pm and waited roughly 45 mins and it was about $70pp after tip and tax Food: Oysters: hit or miss, but mostly a miss the day I went. bad after taste Snow crab legs: super fresh and slightly sweet. a bit over cooked tho. Prime rib- pretty good for buffet standards Mini crunchy tacos- solid and love the toppings they have Pho- if you're craving a bowl of soup noodles, it'll be satisfying I was too full to try anything else, but they had a salad bar, bagels, lox, charcuterie, chinese food, cooked seafood, pasta, pizza, and dessert. I would come back to this buffet everytime I'm in the area~

    Friday's Dinner... seafood.
    Susan L.

    The buffet is good at Atlantis. They have plenty of food selections to offer. They have a Mongolian station where you can prepare your veggies, sauces and meats for the chef to cook in front of you. The Pho station is good too... although the broth is a bit salty. Their beef balls are flavorful. One of my favorite desserts is the freshly made COTTON CANDY! YUM!

    Whipped mashed potatoes with gravy, deep fried shrimp, lemon chicken, vegetable spring roll, chilaquiles, pepperoni pizza
    Amethyst C.

    There was a wide variety of food, mostly fried though. Chilaquiles was something new though. I was surprised to see such a large variety of sugar free desserts. That also seemed newer. You could definitely taste it was sugar free and the lemon pie didn't really taste like lemon. Coffee gelato is always good. Our waitress struggled with our drinks. She was getting extra drinks than what we ordered, and it took me multiple times just to ask for a water. They did help us put tables together but some people in our group didn't have enough space so they had to sit behind us. It was okay for being so expensive. If it wasn't for the price I'd love to come more.

    Friendly staff and wide variety of food. The food cooks fresh was better quality and tasted good like the Mongolia grill and prime rib. But the other prepared foods were very hit or miss with quality, taste and temperature- the biggest quality issue being the meat/cheese table having old, crusting cheese and visibly molded cheese sitting out. The dessert area was the biggest hit, with gelato and cotton candy for the kids.

    Pho from the pho station

    Background On Visit: Knowing that we were going to be flying into Reno International Airport, I made it a point that we needed to go to a buffet. Looked on their yelp page and thought to myself that this place would be the place to binge eat/drink. We went for the steak & seafood dinner gourmet buffet on Saturday. Toucan Charlie's Offerings: Voted the Best Gourmet Buffet in Reno, Toucan Charlie's Gourmet Buffet & Grille offers a vast array of mouth-watering dishes that cater to every craving. With six live-action stations, including Sauté & Grille, Carvery, Charcuterie, Far East, Pho, Sea Fare, Southwest and Specialty Made-to-Order Salads, and Dessert Island, complete with nine flavors of house-made gelato and cotton candy. From savory to sweet desserts the Toucan Charlie's Gourmet Buffet & Grille will leave you full and satisfied. Price Point: Reasonable. Just remember that during holiday season, you'll be charged higher ($65.99) than regular price ($58.99). You can see their prices on their website: https://atlantiscasino.com/dining/casual-dining/tcb . Restrooms: No restrooms in the restaurant. You'll have to use the restroom in the casino. Closest restroom would be going up stairs. Wait Time: Wait time can be long depending when you join the waiting queue. Our wait was little over an hour. If you more than one person in your group, take turns and walk around casino. This will make your wait look a little shorter. Location/Parking: Located inside the Atlantis Casino. Parking can be easily found Ambiance/Decor: Pretty cool ambiance with modern furnishings. Service: Service was good. The main staffer that was assigned to our table kept on refilling my diet coke. Every time I left and came back, there was another diet coke waiting for me. I probably had 6 or 7 refills that night. She was great. At times, there were other staffers that were waiting for you to finish so they can take your plate away. Felt a little weirded out, but it was effective. Buffet Items Of Choice: 1) Crab Legs: Definitely eat many crab legs. Very fresh and go for the ones that are pre- cracked so they're easy to eat. The staffer will also provide you a crab leg cracker and a tin to put your shells in. 2) Pho Station: Pho broth was actually good. Had some worries prior to trying, but all the worries were gone after taking many sips of the broth. Selection of protein and noodles was decent. First time seeing a pho station at buffet. That's genius! 3) Prime Rib: It was okay. Some parts of the prime rib was overcooked and over seasoned. 4) Salmon: Salmon was good. I probably think I had about 3 or 4 pieces 5) Salad: Good, but probably ask them to put the dressing on the side. 6) Broiled Steaks was tasty. 7) Dessert Bar was okay. I didn't feel guilty eating a oreo cheesecake slice. :) Toucan Charlie Buffet and Grille For Thought: With a decent amount of choices to eat, you might feel a little overwhelmed. Your eyes might be bigger than your stomach.So keep cool, take deep breathes, and have a grand ol' time stuffing your face.

    Action shot! They keep it clean here!
    Joyce W.

    For Reno, this still seems to be the best buffet as far as quality, variety and value. Really friendly chefs that prepare your serving dishes like prime rib, Mongolian BBQ, Pho, custom salads and more. Servers are always friendly. I adore the cutely dressed dessert server outfits at the dessert station. I noticed while enjoying both the lunch and dinner buffet, they have more bus workers keeping the dishes from piling up. I appreciate this improvement. I have to mention that they usually have an Indian curry dish or specialty item that is a tasty and nice palate surprise. I think there is something for everyone.

    Toucan Charlie's Buffet & Grille Reviews in Other Languages

    Ask the Community - Toucan Charlie's Buffet & Grille

    Is there any seafood Monday -Thursday?

    They have a seafood section all the way to the left. And they have shrimp in the salad section. But it's not like the crab and oysters on the weekend.

    How much is lunch on Mondays for seniors with players card?

    $35.00

    What prices the lunch on Friday?

    $35.99 and could cost a little less depending on if you have an Atlantis Rewards Card and what tier you are on. Also, 55 plus gets $2.00 discount w/ rewards card.

    Do they serve a seafood on Sunday or Monday?

    We usually go on Mondays. They have seafood then.

    Is it pet friendly?

    No...only service dogs are permitted.

    Do they have prime rib for lunch on Monday?

    Yes

    How far in advance can you make reservations? I'll be up there in March and the online system doesn't indicate availability.

    They don't take reservations at the buffet.

    Is there a Senior discount still?

    Yes for folks over 55 yo.

    Do we need to make a reservation?

    No. But, I think it's better to have a reservation and get in closer to the time you want. Then, to wait for a long time in line.

    Can someone confirm if Toucan Charlie's offers a free buffet for your birthday in 2024?

    Don't know.. but.. if your at the highest level on your players card u may have a comp meal

    How much is the weekday dinner buffet per person?

    look it up on Yelp

    Do they serve seafood for weekend brunch?

    Yes. It is also more expensive.

    I made a reservation at 830p for their Seafood dinner buffet which was the only option for dinner. I checked 3 months ahead if this was the case, the only option it offers, is 8p, 815p, and 830p. What gives? Do they not offer 5p, 6p, 7p?

    This is the best buffet around, as well as the most popular. They do offer reservations at all times, it's just that specific times on specific days are booked more often than others due to the "type" of food offered. Those times are reserved FAR in… 

    Is there Crabs and other seafood on Weekdays dinner hour?

    There is a lot of seafood but it changes day-to-day. Crab is not always available due to the price these days. but if you really want the seafood feast I suggest you try Friday night. it's pricey but they have every kind of seafood you could imagine.

    Does Toucan Charlie's buffet serving crab in weekend brunch?

    Yes they do

    Is crab a part of the lunch menu on Fridays?

    No, not till dinner when the price goes up.

    Do they have a sushi/sashimi section in the buffet?

    No...no sushi or sashimi that I've ever seen there no matter what day or time of day I've ever been...

    What are your weekday lunch offerings? Is there seafood on the lunch buffet?

    If they don't have it, you don't need it. It is the largest buffet in Reno

    What champagne is served for Sat/Sun champagne brunch at Atlantis Toucan Charlie's?

    It is the same for years. Starts with W. It is a dry one. Unique to this place.

    Does seafood night comes with meat choices or just seafood? And does it come with all the desserts and everything just like if it was a Saturday night?

    Yes it al meat choices

    Wow. If you find yourself in Reno, jonesing for a burger, Archie's is the place to go. We aren't…read moreresidents, but come up the hill a few times a year for various events. Until this 4th of July weekend (250/2026) we had never heard of Archie's. It was recommended to us and we stopped in on Sunday the 5th for lunch on our way out of town. What an amazing choice. I ordered their bacon cheese burger. Guess what? It was GIANT. It was delicious. It was perfect. Comes with fries but I got onion rings. The onion rings were perfect too. Largest order of rings I have ever seen. The burger (1/2 Lb I think!!) had nice thick bacon in every bite, two large and fresh slices of tomato, a big old slab of an onion slice, mayo and lettuce. I can't remember if there were pickles. It was the best burger and onion rings I have eaten in at least ten years, maybe 20. We will be back, EVERY time we are in town from now on. I can't recommend this place enough. Special shout out to David, our server. This guy made no mistakes. Laughed at all my stupid dad jokes, was attentive, patient while my companions changed their minds 36 times, and was friendly too. Says it was only his 2nd day on the job, but I wish he had been working for us at our restaurant (Hokkaido Noodle House) in Sacramento. He is a pro already, give him reasons to keep working for you boss. Don't worry, we won't steal him from you, we are retired and closed our joint 10 years ago. Rock on Archie's! You have earned a few new fans today.

    I went here on Sunday mid afternoon before Memorial Day so I assume many students had left town so…read morethe place was pretty empty (so service was excellent.) Was surprised it had a second floor with a small deck and pretty decent views! Big place. Great Happy Hour Deals (half off drinks) and other specials. I haven't eaten breakfast there but the burger I'd put in the top 4 in Reno. It is giant diameter wise but the meat is the same amount of a smaller thicker burger which makes it no too hard to eat. I'd call this a Purist's Burger. Crisp lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, mustard, sauce. They went really light on the sauce to the point I didn't think it had any. Fries were excellent too. Price is very reasonable (that's typical near a college.) I've tried Royce, Juicy's, and The Parlor. I'd put Archies below Royce and Parlor but above Juicy's. Two left on my list are Armando & Son's Butcher Shop and of course Beefy's.

Our family of 8 arrived here to a line that only continued to build. The line exited the building and began to wrap alongside the building. Seating here is first come first serve and are only designated by staff. Saving tables and sitting down prior to placing an order is a big no-no. BUT!! That didn't stop others from doing this anyhow. Let me start off by saying how chaotic this place is. This began from the initial line up to order and continued throughout the meal. Staff seemed flustered, overwhelmed, and moody. I'm not sure if the vibe of our visit would be considered "normal" to the staff and regulars but from my perspective looking in, it just seemed uncomfortably unorganized. As a forewarning to those who have never visited this establishment before, do your research and try to decide on what you would like to order prior to reaching the register area. Being prepared assists in quicker lines and you avoid looks of annoyance overall. Our family ordered a bunch of stuff: *THE REGGIE- hold the cheese & gravy *BLUEBERRY CORNMEAL PANCAKE - single *CORNMEAL PANCAKE- single *BUILD YOUR OWN BISCUIT - bacon, sausage, egg *Side order of EGG *Side order of BACON x2 *CHICKEN FRIED STEAK PLATE w/ BISCUIT *HASH BROWN, 2EGGS, + BACON *THE MONEYBALL *BEIGNETS Food came out at all different times. It was just unfortunate how one child in particular's meal came out at the very end when everyone was pretty much done with eating. The female staffer who brought over the dishes dropped plates on the table before scurrying off. At first I thought it was just a random occurrence but when it consistently happened, there was no way to justify that kind of service. Food was doable. The whole hype over Pine State Biscuits was simply that- JUST HYPE. The dining experience overall and vibe of the eatery was just not my scene. Kudos to those who genuinely enjoy the establishment but I'm gonna have to pass. I wouldn't openly waste my time or calories here.

    If you're looking for a lively brunch spot with great energy, Two Chicks absolutely delivers. It…read morewas packed when we visited, which is usually a good sign, and while it was definitely loud, it added to the fun, bustling atmosphere rather than taking away from it. The service was outstanding. Even with a full house, the staff stayed friendly, attentive, and kept everything moving smoothly. That's no small feat during a busy brunch rush. I really loved this little spot. It has a welcoming vibe that makes you want to linger over your meal and soak it all in. One tip: get there early and give yourself a little extra time to find parking. It's popular for a reason, and after visiting, it's easy to see why.

    Have to start by saying our server was amazing, so sweet and attentive! The food was also amazing…read moreand everyone loved their meals. The only downside I'd say was that we were there paying the bill and going to the bathroom on our way out at closing time and all the chefs were giving us really dirty looks and staring at us. I thought maybe we had been there way past close, but I looked at the clock and it was literally 2:04 pm when we were on our way out. I understand everyone is ready to get out of there after a long day but it definitely felt very unwelcoming. Other than that, I'd say it was a good experience and worth the money, but definitely don't be in there past close time.
