- RRachelVIPSan Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoThe food and service was outstanding. We were in a small room with a large group next to us and two children age 7 to 10 were running around the table screaming. The staff did well but the parents and family ignored the entire commotion. This was during 75% of our meal and caused a romantic evening to go awry.More infoRoxy - Reno Eldorado Resort CasinoPrice: Very Expensive• Californian• Reno•4.8
- AAshlynTahoe / Reno Area •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoSmith and River is our go to nice date night and celebratory dinner spot! The service is always exceptional and the food matches! I had the table side cacio e pepe last night and what an experience that was. My husband had the chefs cut and it was a 12oz new York strip cooked to perfection with the most succulent mashed potatoes! We loved our server and everyone we interacted with at the restaurant is so sweet and welcoming.More infoSmith and RiverPrice: Expensive• Bistro• Reno•4.6
- DDelVIPSan Francisco Bay Area •88 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoLively but classy atmosphere and environment. Our service was impeccable thanks to Eddie and Vito. There were large groups of people sitting near and around the four of us, but our service never dropped below 5 Stars! Having an exposed kitchen is always desirable, so you can watch the chefs in action if you choose to and to see the cleanliness of the establishment. Our appetizers, entrees and dessert were artfully presented and all were delicious. When the Service AND Food are this good, it is easy to state that this was an excellent dining experience. I highly recommend Bistro Napa!More infoBistro Napa - Atlantis Casino ResortPrice: Moderate• Californian• Reno•4.9
- KKARIANNPalm Springs / Palm Desert Cities •2 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoOur server was super friendly and attentive. We sat outside on the lake and she brought over a heater. Beautiful views and nice ambiance. So glad this place lets you sit outside during the winter (many outdoor patios aren’t utilized during this time). My husband loved his French dip sandwich (Tahoe does this well as he liked it at other restaurants in the area but this was his favorite!) also his favorite drink of our trip was here, the signature Woody. I had the ahi tacos and they were good also! We walked around in the snow and pier after. Lovely and not too crowded during winter. Highly recommend and would be great for sunset if no fog!More infoGar Woods Grill and Pier RestaurantPrice: Expensive• Californian• Carnelian Bay•4.7
