We’re no strangers to food here at the RN&R. Our weekly food column is a testament to our commitment to profiling the highs and lows of regional eateries, and a glimpse of our past bars and clubs guides reveals our patronage of local joints and a celebration of our hedonism. Lucky for us, Northern Nevada has a unique food culture and a diverse collection of restaurants to keep us busy eating and writing.

This is our first Foodfinds guide and is intended to help you navigate through the many choices Reno has to offer. You’ll find some familiar reviews of memorable local establishments with staple items like great burgers, sandwiches and desserts. The RN&R staff members give their take on pizza places in the valley. And condensed restaurant reviews will make it easy for you to pick a place for your next date or family outing.

As the weather grows colder, it’s a great time to gather with your loved ones and enjoy a hot meal. Bon appétit!
