Cafe del Rio in Virginia City. Never had a bad experience here, and it has been a while, so a brief review. It's Thursday, so... the crowd here is all local, but there is still a pleasant buzz in the dining room. We got reservations just in case, and whenwe arrived, our table already had chips, salsa, and water waiting for us. Our server seated us, and took our order quickly aftera brief chat. The atmosphere is pretty unique, as the restaurant is in an historic building in one of our more lively ghosttowns, but my wife and kid both say it's too cold every time we come so I'd recommend a nice sweater or jacket. The gospelfried chicken is just a blast to get every time. My wife had enchiladas, and she was thrilled with the fresh mole sauce. My sonhad enchiladas from the kids menu, which is nothing to write home about I'm sure, but he is a happy camper, it was warm andmelty. It's easy to tell everything is homemade, and with love. The chef came out to greet us and check on things, and everyonewas just pleasant as can be. It felt like a fancy family holiday dinner with no drama. Read more
A bit of a walk from the main strip but well worth the venture. The place was shockingly unoccupied considering how busy the... town was. High noon and a low population really made for a nice change form the streets. The Cesar Salad was good and while thecomplimentary salsa was a little watery for my pallet it was included in the meal at no extra cost. The Mahi on the salad wasdelicious and it took me off guard. I was expecting middling and got amazing. The waitress was knowledgeable about the area andthe options at the restaurant equally. Was able to advise on food allergies and fun things in town without missing abeat. Speaking of beat county music is the fair here with an inconsistent volume based on how much someone in the back wantedto sing to it. If you are COVID-19 conscious this place does not require masks of customers or workers. If it had been busierit would have caused me to find other options. As it was it was reasonable. Read more
Amazing! View was out of this world. Staff was like seeing an old friend. Food was delicious and the Margherita's were strong... enough to forget about the drive we took to get there, Mt. Rose Highway! (Not for the Faint of Heart). Go in from Carson Citynot Reno ???? Read more
Very authentic TexMex food. The Chili Relleno was one of the best we've ever had. It was very crowded but food came out quickly.
The service is always top notch. The homey/ comfort level is amazing. Great view it windows and let me tell you... There food is... so flavorful, accurate, and presentable! I cannot believe I am going to say this, I have yet to be able to find anything wing atthis restaurant... Go here and experience this yourself. You will not be disappointed. Try "The Gospel Chicken" mind blowing. Read more
We get to Virginia City 1 weekend a year and this is the only place I want to return to for food. I love the little blue pot.... Husband says the fried chicken was pretty damn good as well. They always have a few margaritas ready to go, the peach,blackberry and the pomegranate passion fruit are winners! Read more
