The Top 5 Reno Restaurants
Atlantis Steakhouse
Atlantis Steakhouse occupies a discreet upper-floor suite inside the Atlantis Casino Resort Spa on South Virginia Street, a few minutes south of downtown Reno and directly across from the Reno-Sparks Convention Center. The room is the most quietly accomplished steakhouse in Northern Nevada — about a hundred and twenty covers across a softly lit dining room of dark walnut panelling, leather banquettes, hand-painted Tuscan murals and a long marble bar facing the open exhibition kitchen. Forbes Travel Guide awarded the steakhouse Four-Star status in 2026, the property's first such recognition for the dining programme.
Charlie Palmer Steak
Charlie Palmer Steak opened inside the Grand Sierra Resort at 2500 East Second Street in 2007 — the Reno outpost of the James Beard-winning American chef's national steakhouse group, which also runs rooms in Manhattan, Washington DC and Las Vegas. The dining room runs about a hundred and forty covers across a long, double-height space with floor-to-ceiling windows facing the Sierra Nevada range to the west, a circular booth section at the centre of the room, and a polished mahogany bar tracking the eastern wall. The Reno location holds the same Charlie Palmer design vocabulary — leather, exposed timber, brass — that made the original Manhattan room a defining piece of late-1990s American steakhouse architecture.
La Strada
La Strada has occupied a quiet corner of the Eldorado Resort Casino at 345 North Virginia Street since the early 1990s — a downtown Reno dining room that has been recognised among the top ten Italian restaurants in the United States by national food press, and one of the few casino fine-dining rooms in the American West to maintain its kitchen identity through three decades of property changes. The dining room runs about ninety covers across a softly-lit space of Tuscan-villa register: hand-painted murals of the Amalfi coast, terracotta tile, leather banquettes, and an open pasta station at the rear where the day's hand-cut tagliatelle, pappardelle and mushroom ravioli are made fresh through dinner service.
Beaujolais Bistro
Beaujolais Bistro occupies a converted residential bungalow at 753 Riverside Drive, on the north bank of the Truckee River about a five-minute walk west of downtown Reno, and is the closest the city has to a true French bistro of the kind one would expect in the lower Marais or the second arrondissement of Lyon. The dining room runs about sixty covers across two intimate front rooms with timber floors, white linen tablecloths, mismatched antique mirrors and exposed brick — a deliberately small, deliberately personal space that has carried a singular reputation through more than two decades of operation. The terrace, open in warm weather, faces the Truckee River and is one of the most quietly romantic outdoor dining spots in northern Nevada.
Liberty Food & Wine Exchange
Liberty Food & Wine Exchange opened in 2013 at 100 North Sierra Street, on the ground floor of a downtown Reno building two blocks from the Truckee Riverwalk, and is the flagship of chef Mark Estee — a Connecticut-trained American chef who moved to northern Nevada in 2005 and has been the defining figure of the region's farm-to-table movement ever since. The dining room runs about ninety covers across a high-ceilinged industrial-chic space of exposed brick, polished concrete, salvaged-timber communal tables, a long marble bar, and a glass-fronted boutique wine market at the entrance where the by-the-glass list is poured directly from the retail shelves.
