Yelp! Sushi Pier 2 Reno, NV

Sushi Pier 2 (5 out of 5 stars)1507 S Virginia St
Reno, NV 89502
(775) 825-5225

This place is always busy but it is big enough to accommodate the crowd. This is one is a much better ambiance than their other restaurant in Plumb Lane. You will have plenty of elbow room to chow down.

Their salmon is always fresh. Their mussels are awesome. Their chefs are friendly. Love..love..love. They have raised their prices. Their dinner AYCE is $18.95. It is still pretty cheap.

Note to Parents: You can request an Infant Seat Cradle that you can use while you are eating at their sushi bar. It's cradle to place your infant car seat so you do not have to worry about hauling your stroller. I think it is very nice that they have this. Not all restaurants in Reno have it.

Below is a photo of infant seat cradle.

This place is overpriced and has very lousy customer service. I was going to exchange an item that was given to me during my baby shower. It was not on my registry; therefore, I cannot return or exchange it. NADA! PERIOD! Not even a store credit. Hello! People don't always buy stuff from baby registry. Uuugghhh! I HATE this store.

http://www.Diapers.comhas better selection and better price. By the way, get $10 off on your first order by typing NVHomes as your coupon code. They have better selection and FAST shipping.

Just across from IGT (International Game Technology). One star for ambiance. Modern and chic. Friendly staff. Husband and I went there on a weekday night. They were busy, and they only had two servers.

Pros:

~According to my husband, they have the best hot and sour soup. It's $3 for a cup, and good balance of flavors.

~Offers variety of mixed drinks for $8. Husband truly enjoyed his Mai Tai.

~Shrimp Pan Fried Noodles is delicious. It's $12 but the serving is a bit small.

~AYCE Sushi $23. Soooo NOT worth it. It's 70% rice and 30% meat ratio. What the heck? I feel so ripped off. I still love the Sushi Pier 2.

~Plenty of parking.

~Very friendly staff.

~They DO accept American Express. :-)

Tips:

~Skip their AYCE Sushi.

~Make reservation if you are planning to go there on a weekend.

~Mai Tai is a must.

~Beautiful ambiance.

~It could be difficult to find if you are not familiar with South Meadows.

It is a beautiful restaurant. The employees' hospitality is refreshing. The food is flavorful except for sushi. It is a nice treat but I expected more for the price.

Yelp! The Rose Garden Restaurant Reno, NV

It is located next to AMF Starlite Lane. You can see their sign from I-80 West. Husband and I went there on a weekday for dinner, and we were delighted to see a Filipino restaurant thriving.

Pros:

~$9.95 Buffet. Awesome price.

~Wide selection of Filipino food. They have adobo, kare-kare, dinuguan, leche flan, etc.

~Great service. Our waiter kept refilling our drinks and greeted us promptly. Very friendly staff.

~Modern decor with Filipino flair.

~Plenty of parking.

~They have Karaoke nights and ballroom dancing nights.

~They DO accept American Express. :-)

Tips:

~Filipino food usually taste better with steam rice; however, you will get full quickly.

~They have five popular entrees' and another five that they rotate. They didn't have pancit and lumpia when we were there.

~They didn't have a sign on each dish. If you are not familiar with Filipino food, you might have to ask.

~Make sure to make room for their desserts.

~They also offer a-la-carte menu if you don't feel like stuffing yourself silly at the buffet. They also accept to go orders, catering, and group reservations.

~They used to have Italian and Mexican food as well but not anymore. They do appreciate their patrons. They even have signs on the table thanking people for their support. They celebrate their one year anniversary this month (May 2009).

Yelp! Genghis Grill Sparks, NV

It is a great concept! With a creative mind and a little adventure, you can create your own masterpiece. You can also follow their menus for a safer route. It is located near Best Buy in corner of Los Altos Parkway and Pyramid Way.

Pros:

~Wide selection of protein, veggies, exotic sauces, spices, and starches (rice, tortilla, noodles, etc).

~Great service. Our waitress was very enthusiastic; however, she talks too fast. So fast, I can't even remember her name.

~$1.99 for a very large soda with endless refills.

~It is fun to go through the line and create your own concoction.

~Ingredients are fresh.

Tips:

~They DO accept American Express. :-)

~Plenty of parking.

~It is $8.99 for a bowl which I think is small and $10.99 for all-you-can eat. For few bucks more you can go to Atlantis' Toucan Charlie buffet that has limited Mongolian grill and whole lot more variety of other food. The $10.99 all-you-can can eat is not worth it unless you really going to stuff yourself silly.

~It has energetic ambiance. Red walls and modern decor. Music is a little bit loud.

~Going through the line can be overwhelming and might be confusing for first timers.

~Don't mix the seafood with the other meat. They tend to get overcooked.

It was an interesting experience. If you want something quick, filling, and offers wide selection, this is your place. Don't expect other food line. This is exclusively Mongolian Grill.
